Chapter 161

The next morning, Ariana had a fever.When Enrique asked the maids to get medicine, he learned that Spencer had left in the middle of the night. Furious, he called Spencer, demanding he return immediately.Last night, Spencer had lost control. In a struggle with Ariana, they had fallen off the couch. When he looked up, he saw the cold and hateful look in Ariana's eyes. At that moment, he felt an inexplicable sense of panic.Seizing the opportunity while he was dazed, Ariana pushed him away and ran out. She went to the study, where the heating had been turned off. Since she was only in her loungewear, she ended up catching a cold.Not wanting to worry Enrique, she stayed in the study until around 5:00 am before stumbling back to her room. She got into bed, feeling strangely alone. She then slept deeply until after 7:00 am, when a maid knocked on her door to wake her up.Enrique was waiting for them to come down for breakfast. When they didn't show up, he had the maids call them. Th

Ariana found glaring purple-red hickeys on her neck.They weren't there the night before! It had to be Spencer. There was no one else who could have done this.Ariana couldn't believe Spencer took advantage of her while she was sick. He had to be out of his mind. His head was filled with nothing but dirty thoughts. He couldn't even spare a sick person!Feeling hungry, Ariana got dressed and went downstairs.To her surprise, Spencer was still there. Enrique was probably taking his afternoon nap, and Spencer was on the phone.Seeing Ariana come down, he ended the call and said, "How are you feeling? Better?"Ariana shot him a glance.Their eyes met, both cold and indifferent.Spencer continued, "Are you ignoring me?"Ariana sat down and poured herself half a glass of warm water.Spencer lowered his voice. "I'm giving you an out. You can take it or leave it. You had a fever, and I took care of you. I wiped you down and changed your clothes. I didn't expect a thank you, but c

Spencer looked at Ariana. "'Perfect timing'? You and her? Do you think you can compare to her? Ariana, are you even worthy?""Worthy of what? What makes her unworthy?"Startled, both of them turned to see Enrique approaching."What are you two talking about?" Enrique asked, having caught only the last part of Spencer's sentence. "Spencer, have you upset Ari again?"Spencer looked pale.Ariana quickly responded, "Grandpa, we were just discussing… a game. He said I couldn't beat him, which is really irritating."Enrique glared at Spencer. "You should be more considerate of Ari! When you were young, you always saved the best food for her. You'd cry if we stopped you from keeping it!"Spencer was taken aback. "Grandpa, come on. When did I ever cry?"Ariana was curious. "Saving food for me? I don't remember that."Enrique chuckled. "You were too young to remember. He was young, too. The first time he saw you, he said you'd be his wife. He'd follow you around with his short legs, an

Enrique said, "He really liked you back then. I've never seen him like anyone so much. He would often mention you even as he grew older."Spencer had been raised by Enrique, so his words carried weight."So, what happened later?" Ariana asked. "Did he still mention me after he started school?"Enrique smiled. "He was chubby and quite cute when he was little. But he became less talkative when he grew taller and slimmed down around five or six years old. Even though he didn't say much, I knew he still liked you."Ariana was puzzled. "How did you know?"Enrique replied, "He used to make you gifts for your birthday every year. Don't you remember?"Ariana was astonished. "Gifts? What kind of gifts?""Drawings he made himself, assembled building blocks, and even wooden carvings. I saw him working on them myself. He'd often hurt his hands but never complained.""Are you sure they were for me?"Enrique nodded. "Of course.""But…" Ariana thought hard and realized she had no recollecti

After thinking it over, Ariana decided not to approach Spencer. It wouldn't change a thing, anyway. It didn't mean much, even if he had feelings for her back then.The fact remained that Spencer didn't like her now. There was no reason to dig into the past and risk getting embarrassed by him.However, Ariana couldn't help pondering about it.She was still troubled by it when Spencer came back. She simply couldn't clear her mind.…Ariana felt much better after resting for a day. She had dinner and was told by Enrique to go to bed early.They both went to their bedroom. Spencer glanced at her and met her eye but quickly looked away. While he worked on his laptop, she picked up her phone to look up some information. They avoided each other.Ariana couldn't help it and finally broke the silence, asking, "Do you know how to do wood carving?"Spencer didn't respond.They were both on opposite ends of the couch, with a large space in between. Ariana tilted her head to look at him.

Ariana had already used every insult she could think of to criticize Spencer. Now, she was simply stunned by his audacity."You're so shameless!" She gritted her teeth and hissed, "You're a wolf in sheep's clothing!"Spencer picked her up and carried her toward the bed. "If you keep calling me that every day, I'll turn into one soon.""You're really a pervert!"He set her down on the bed and pressed himself against her. "Stop talking, and let's get to business, okay?"Ariana glared at him. "I'm exhausted. Can't you just leave me alone?""What do you mean exhausted?" Spencer kissed her earlobe. "You'll feel better after this. Sweat it out, and you'll be fine by tomorrow. Trust me, okay?"Of course, Ariana wouldn't trust him!Yet, there was nothing she could do.Spencer thrust into her and let out a satisfied moan. "Indeed, it's warm."Indeed, Ariana's body was warm. Besides, they had always matched. It felt different today. However, Ariana was still furious that Spencer disreg

The next morning, Ariana's cold had surprisingly recovered.She went back to work, and Jensen brought her a lot of fruit.Ariana said helplessly, "I can't eat this much.""Fruits are good for replenishing vitamins and preventing getting sick," Jensen said. "Keep the ones you like, and share the rest with your colleagues."Jensen had brought her some deep red cherries, which were as big as paper shell walnuts. They were really juicy.Ariana remembered Enrique had mentioned Spencer delivering some fruits from abroad for her. She didn't believe it.Before leaving, Jensen said, "I have surgery today, so I can't accompany you for lunch. Sisi is nearby for errands, and she'll come over. Make sure to eat well, okay?"Ariana smiled. "Got it."…At noon, Sienna indeed came to find Ariana.They went to a restaurant near the hospital. With the New Year approaching, Sienna was less busy. She had already discussed designs and details for the New Year's clothes with her clients well in a

After pondering briefly, Spencer decided to spend a bit more time with Ariana.He picked up his phone and texted Connor. "I'll come over at ten tonight."Connor quickly replied, "Why so late?"Spencer chose not to respond. He instinctively didn't want to discuss his issues with Ariana with others.He had made up his mind. If he received a gift from Ariana tonight and the atmosphere was right, they might have a "deeper" conversation.Having been careful about her condition, he hadn't had enough the previous night.Suddenly, someone knocked on the door, and Spencer responded in a low voice, "Come in."Joanne entered and placed a stack of documents on the desk for Spencer to sign. After finishing her work, she asked, "Spence, did you not like the scarf I gave you?"Spencer replied, "Of course not.""But you haven't worn it." Joanne pursed her lips. "I know my gift might not be to your taste…""Don't think that way." Spencer sighed. "It's not like that. Fine. I'll wear it."Afte

Ariana seemed confused."I left them downstairs. Why?""I got them for you. Aren't you going to take them with you?"Ariana replied, "Aren't they just a free gift from the flower shop?"Spencer was even more frustrated. "So what? Are you just going to disregard something someone gave you?"Ariana almost laughed in exasperation. "How should I cherish them? Should I carry them up and sleep with them?""You're completely unreasonable!"Ariana thought he was getting absurd again and didn't want to argue. She asked, "Is there anything else I can help you with?"Spencer grew annoyed. "Do you know what day it is today?"Ariana replied, "What day?""Tomorrow is my birthday," Spencer said through gritted teeth. "Don't you know?""Well, you just said it's tomorrow," Ariana uttered. "So what does today have to do with it?"Spencer was too proud to directly ask her what gift she had prepared for him, even though he was eager to know. On the other hand, Ariana, who would usually prepare

Ariana said, "Spencer, do you even remember what I gave you last year?"Spencer was stunned.Seeing his silence, Ariana smiled. "You just said you cherish everything others give you, yet you can't even remember what I gave you last year.""Don't make excuses!" Spencer snapped. "That's not a valid reason for forgetting my birthday.""You receive so many gifts every year. Surely, one more doesn't matter," Ariana said. "I'm not as considerate as someone who personally knitted a scarf for you. I see you're liking it very much."Spencer reacted quickly this time. "Are you upset because I received Joanne's scarf? It's just a scarf. Why make such a fuss? Don't you think you're overreacting?"Ariana thought it was wise to control her emotions in time. After all, even if Spencer had feelings for her, he wouldn't stay loyal to her. Accepting gifts from other women and being indifferent about it showed how little he cared.She would be infuriated if she had to spend the rest of her life wi
