It was pouring outside while they were having dinner. Because of this, Areiza could not help but be worried about how she would go home. She would rather not take Darren’s car.

Jennifer seemed to have sensed her apprehension. She looked outside the window and asked with a smile, “Dear Aria, would you like to stay for the night?”

“I have to work tomorrow, Grandma,” Areiza replied with an apologetic smile.

“It’s okay. I will ask the driver to drive you to the company tomorrow morning, so you won’t be late.” Jennifer said with a smile.

Darren heard their conversation and looked at them.

Seeing him like this, Jennifer glared at him and said sharply, “What are you looking at? I don’t care whether you want to stay or not. But I hope Aria stays with me, even just for one night.”

Jennifer held Areiza's hand and looked at her expectantly.

“Okay.” Areiza could not refuse her, so she just agreed.

Hearing this, Jennifer's face lit up. Meanwhile, Lillian, Frank, and Martin also look delighted.

The rust-colored liquid, which Areiza assumed was whisky, glinted in the light.“Have a seat, please.” Mr. Wright looked at Areiza with a flash of amazement in his eyes. He gestured for her to take the sofa opposite him.“Thank you.” Areiza said and sat down.Then, he bluntly said, “One million dollars a year plus birthday and holidays gifts.”He spoke as if he

Areiza is beautiful. If something happens between us, I hope you won’t regret your decision.” Alex said.“I have told you that you two will just pretend to be in a relationship! You are not allowed to touch her!” Darren's voice was filled with coldness.“If I date a girl but never touch her, then what’s the point of dating her? For killing time?” Alex retorted.“Cut the crap.
