Connor sounded delighted. "Sure. Do you want to meet in the afternoon or evening?"Spencer replied, "Evening.""I'll let her know, then. I won't be joining you guys, by the way."Spencer frowned. "Why?""You know how busy I am lately." Connor explained, "I'm planning to work with an overseas company on a new project. We're going to have a virtual meeting tomorrow night.""Mhm," Spencer responded in acknowledgment.Connor asked, "Also… What's going on between you and Ariana? I think she's just doing certain things to get your attention. Yet, you fell for it?""What do you mean?"Connor said, "I know very well what the ladies are thinking. However, I must say Ariana's tactics of playing hard to get are pretty impressive. It's no surprise you've fallen for it."If you ask me, just let her be. Didn't she say she planned to go abroad?"When she realized you weren't giving her the attention that she wanted, she might come looking for you herself instead. The more anxious you appear

Shortly afterward, Ariana and Sienna arrived at the restaurant, one after the other.The two and Boa went ahead and ate first since they were not sure what time Jensen would get there. They were long-time friends who wouldn't get mad over something like this.Boa began, "Cheers to Ari's bright future!"Sienna added, "That's right! Staying away from a cheater is good for your health and gives you a brighter future!"Ariana beamed and raised her glass. "Thank you."The three of them laughed and chattered away. Suddenly, Sienna tugged Ariana's sleeve.Ariana asked curiously, "What's the matter?"Sienna replied, "Look behind you."Ariana glanced over her shoulder and spotted a familiar face.It had been quite some time since she last saw Joanne. The last time Ariana heard of her news was probably when Sienna shared about how Joanne was showing off the New Year's gift she got from Spencer on Instagram.Ariana was so busy preparing for her divorce and trip abroad that she completel

Sienna commented, "Boey, you look just like the cool and haughty CEO that's always mentioned in romance novels just now."Boa swept her curly locks to the back. "That shows I have the potential to become an actor!"Just you wait. One day, I'll become the hottest celebrity in the entertainment industry and rise to stardom!"Ariana smiled and watched the two of them joke around with an endearing look in her eyes. She didn't bother sparing Joanne, who stood at one side, another glance.Things had been rough for Joanne lately.She had received expensive gifts from Spencer around New Year's Day. However, he hadn't been contacting her ever since.Joanne also didn't receive any response for any of the messages she sent and calls she made to Spencer.When she tried to look for him, she found she no longer had access to the CEO's office, which she used to be able to enter freely.In the end, Joanne found a way to enter the underground parking lot to meet Spencer.However, Spencer had t

Spencer used to be very gentle and caring to Joanne. Ariana could still recall vividly the moment when he carried Joanne in his arms and rushed her to the hospital. However, Ariana snickered as she looked at the lady standing beside Spencer. She felt like she had found the answer.It wasn't like Spencer was always cold to the ladies. To be exact, he had found another replacement that bore a greater resemblance to his unrequited love.Thus, Joanne no longer held any value in his eyes.Ariana was glad she had escaped that bottomless swamp. If she were still in love with Spencer, she would feel so miserable now after seeing Spencer find a new replacement.Yet, she simply felt disgusted at the moment.Spencer thought his tactic had somehow worked when he noticed the disgruntled look on Ariana's face.He tore his gaze away from Ariana and looked down at Shanice. He then said in a gentle voice, "Didn't you say you like the food here? Should I just buy the entire restaurant?"Shanice

Spencer picked a seat next to Ariana's.Ariana subconsciously scooted her chair a few inches away. Still, they were seated next to each other.Spencer fixed Gerald with an icy gaze the moment the latter entered the restaurant.He originally planned to act as though he was close to Shanice and have Ariana see their interactions. Yet, Spencer was so preoccupied that he didn't even touch the food in front of him.The two tables were placed not too far away from each other. He could hear Gerald's voice coming from the next table from time to time."Eat this. It's nutritious… Have some soup. Careful. It's hot… Do you like this dish? I'll learn how to make it… Don't move. I'll wipe that for you."Spencer's plan was to make Ariana jealous. Yet, the plan failed spectacularly. Ariana didn't react much to him and Shanice. Instead, Spencer was boiling with fury.Not only was Spencer jealous, but he also felt as though he might explode at any moment.As for Gerald, he was never allowed the

Spencer would ask Ariana impatiently every time, "Are you still not done throwing tantrums?"This time, she was the one asking that question.Spencer didn't think he was being rude and unreasonable. He pointed at Ariana. "I'll give you one last chance…""Thanks, but no, thanks." Ariana smirked."Spencer Ulrich, you were in love with someone else during our marriage. You shared close relationships with other women, and you were always cold to me. I can't forgive any of those behaviors."Being able to divorce you is both refreshing and liberating. I can't even begin to tell you how happy I am now."Ariana dropped her gaze but soon lifted her head again. She had a cold and distant look in those orbs."Mr. Ulrich, we should each live a happy, separate life. Let's not see each other anymore."Then, she got up and walked away.After a brief pause, Gerald picked up Ariana's bag and coat before hurrying after her.An uncomfortable silence hung in the room. Everyone in the restaurant

After he had gotten off work, Jensen headed over to the specified location but couldn't find his friends there.He called Ariana, who paused for a few seconds. "Sorry. We completely forgot about you."Jensen said through clenched teeth, "You don't say! How did you even forget about a friend you were supposed to meet?"Ariana sent him a new address.It took Jensen a little over ten minutes to drive to the new location. It was only when he arrived at the place that Jensen realized Gerald was there, too.Jensen greeted everyone and took a seat. He asked, "What's going on? Do you not want to let me join your gatherings anymore?"Boa had compelling storytelling skills. Moreover, what happened earlier was truly amusing. Through her narration, the events became even more gripping and intense."I think that guy's seriously nuts," Jensen commented. "Stay as far away as you can the next time you see him. People with mental issues don't get prosecuted even if they've killed someone."Afte

Yet, if Spencer were to be honest with himself, the number of times he thought about the person gradually reduced after he married Ariana.Especially in the last six months, Spencer hadn't once found himself missing that person as he spent his days bickering with Ariana. He could even say that he had never suffered a sense of longing for that person ever since he started harboring feelings for them.Instead, since their separation, Ariana was all Spencer could think about, even though he hadn't seen her for just a few days.However, Spencer didn't think that this was him missing her. He was convinced it was Ariana's devious tricks that got him so hung up on her.What Jacob just said finally got Spencer questioning himself.Jacob was right. Why hadn't he thought about pursuing that person instead? He was divorced and single again. It was completely fine for him to start a new relationship.However…Spencer couldn't find any trace of joy or excitement in him after listening to Jac

Spencer refused instinctively. "No!""Why? Are you afraid of finding out that the person you like is actually Ariana?"Spencer's lips were compressed into a thin line. He clenched his jaw.Spencer didn't want to admit it, but even he could tell he was a bit worried about that happening. Still, he insisted that he was just a teeny tiny bit concerned.Even with pets, anyone would gradually develop feelings for them after keeping them around for three years. It would be even more so with humans.Therefore, Spencer concluded that it would be natural if he had developed some positive feelings toward Ariana. However, it couldn't possibly be the same as how he felt about Irene.Jacob prompted, "Am I right?"Spencer frowned. "It's pointless to do that. I know who I like, and it's enough that I know it.""Why won't you leave Ariana alone, then?""That's because I can't possibly let her off after what she's done!"Spencer ranted, "No one has ever treated me like that! I've never suffer

He wondered when he started having a change of heart."Also, the things that happened when we were younger… Didn't I bully Ariana because I thought she was annoying? The truth was I liked her and wanted her attention, so…" Spencer pondered.He recalled quite a few things.Spencer remembered how he did enjoy making Ariana upset back then. One of the reasons he did that was probably because he liked seeing the different expressions Ariana would show on her face. Another important reason was that he was angry at Ariana for only spending time with Jensen.Spencer was no fool. He just had not realized his true feelings until now.After receiving some advice and guidance, he had a dawning realization.In other words, Spencer had liked Ariana ever since they were still kids. Since he was jealous of Jensen and Ariana spending a lot of time together, he resorted to doing various things to annoy Ariana.Unfortunately, his actions only made the relationship between him and Ariana's group g
