Chapter 411

Everyone could tell that Zane was clearly interested in Ariana. Coincidentally, Ariana was single, and they were more than happy to play matchmaker between the two.About half an hour later, Spencer showed up.Even George was surprised. "That fast?" Considering how bad the traffic in Orkney was, this was unusually quick. Spencer entered the room, his sharp gaze first landing on Ariana before shifting to Zane, who was sitting beside her.Zane had married young, and at 40 years old, his daughter was already in high school. Despite his age, he looked like a man in his early 30s, carrying himself with an extraordinary presence. To Spencer, the sight of Zane sitting next to Ariana was a thorn in his side. "Spencer?" Zane recognized him immediately and smiled. "Well, this is a rare occasion. What brings you to Orkney, Mr. Ulrich?"George welcomed Spencer to sit and explained, "I mentioned I had a new investment, and Spencer wanted to join in the fun.""Additional investment is

Spencer's face darkened. "After you, Mr. Marshall," he said coldly.Zane entered his car and instructed his assistant to look into the relationship between Ariana and Spencer.After seeing off a few department heads at the restaurant entrance, Ariana prepared to walk back to the hotel.It wasn't far—just a few miles.After a few moments, she noticed the sound of footsteps beside her. Turning her head slightly, she saw Spencer walking next to her.Spencer kept his gaze forward, not even glancing her way. His steps were purposeful and steady, as if deeply focused on walking.Ariana had no idea what he was trying to do, but her instinct told her she wanted nothing more to do with him. She thought about speeding up but remembered Spencer's long legs—it'd take him two strides to catch up. So, instead, she slowed down.With his naturally long strides, Spencer quickly created some distance between them.When Ariana looked up again, she noticed Spencer had stopped ahead of her, tur

Chapter 413

On the day of Nadia's birthday, Ariana, Sienna, and Boa returned to Mauris.Sienna had flexible work hours, and Boa didn't have much going on, so they wanted to spend more time with Ariana back in town.Nadia had already prepared several gowns for Ariana to wear at various events, ensuring that, as the legitimate daughter of the Lubove family, Ariana would present herself with the dignity expected of her.Once Ariana was dressed, both Sienna and Boa agreed that she looked stunning and would undoubtedly outshine everyone at the party.The gown was beautiful, but something was missing—her neck was bare, and she lacked a fitting piece of jewelry. Her gown was custom-made for her figure, accentuating her curves with intricate details. The waistline featured a cut-out design, highlighting her slender waist and fair skin.All Ariana needed was a pearl necklace to complement her entire look. Ariana, however, had never been one to wear much jewelry. When she divorced Spencer, she only

Rowan looked at Zane, confused. "What do you mean?"Zane smirked. "A woman like Ariana deserves to be pampered. If Spencer doesn't appreciate her, someone else will."Rowan chuckled. "So, you've got your eye on her? But giving her expensive jewelry out of the blue—she might not accept it.""That's where you come in. Just don't tell her it's from me."Rowan raised an eyebrow. "And what about the project in Westbridge?""I'll assign it to you," Zane said, not hesitating. "I'll get someone to send the jewelry over right away."The Westbridge project was a highly profitable venture. Under normal circumstances, Zane wouldn't have given it up so easily. Rowan asked, "Are you really into her, or is this just a passing fancy?""The Westbridge project and the jewelry..." Zane replied. "If that's not enough to show my sincerity, let me know what else I should contribute.""It's enough," Rowan said with a grin. "But from what I know, Ariana isn't the type to be swayed by material things

When Kieran turned around, he saw Spencer, and his expression immediately shifted. "Spencer, you're here! Please, come in!"Spencer's eyes were fixed on Ariana.She wore a stunning gown that hugged her curves perfectly, highlighting every graceful line of her body. Her waist was slender, her hips shapely—an image of elegance.Seeing the gazes of several men lingering on her, Spencer's face darkened with jealousy. Without a word, he grabbed Ariana's hand and pulled her inside. Ariana, wearing heels, couldn't keep up with his pace and struggled to free her hand from his grip. However, causing a scene in public wouldn't be appropriate, so she had little choice but to let him lead her.Their arrival—hand-in-hand—drew the attention of many onlookers.People started whispering. "Wait! Didn't they get divorced? Ariana's been away for five years, and now that she's back, Spencer's already all over her?""Did you see the pearl necklace Ariana's wearing? If I'm not mistaken, it's the one

If not, Spencer could have found out where Ariana was. She had been gone for five years. And at her first gathering since she came back here, she was wearing a necklace given to her by another man. How could Spencer tolerate this? "Don't move," he said. After that, he became focused as he brushed aside her hair to deal with the pearl necklace's clasp. His hands were large, and the clasp was small. At first, all of Spencer's attention was on the necklace. But soon, he realized that his position with Ariana was far too intimate. He had her pinned down while his knees were forcefully wedged between her legs. As he leaned in, he could smell Ariana's scent that had haunted his dreams. Noticing the shameful changes happening in his body, his steady hands began to tremble. He could not grasp the tiny clasp, no matter how hard he tried. Ariana also realized that he wanted to take the pearl necklace off her neck. Although she did not understand why Spencer was acting so strangely, the n

Spencer's words fell on deaf ears as Ariana ignored him. When she returned to the center of the party, she noticed the crowd had grown. As she emerged, people looked at her with friendly gazes. Most of the guests at Nadia's birthday party were acquainted with the Lubove family, so Ariana knew many of them. Someone approached her to say hello. "Ari? It's been several years, hasn't it? You're looking more beautiful than ever." Ariana smiled at him. "Uncle Arthur, it has been a few years. You're looking as spirited as ever."The man's wife chimed in, "I've never seen a girl prettier than Ari. Oh, my! Ari, that necklace looks familiar." Someone nearby spoke up, "Isn't that the... Wasn't it auctioned overseas recently? They said it was extremely rare, and a mysterious tycoon won the bid in the end." Ariana shook her head. "You must be mistaken. This is just a replica." "Who says it's a replica?" a voice cut in, drawing everyone's attention. A man in his early 30s approached. He

Zane pulled out a cigarette. He lit it with a flick of his lighter and then said, "I told you. Once I give something away, there's no reason for me to take it back. Throw it away if you don't like it. About dinner, I'll wait for your message." With that, he turned and left. Holding the necklace, Ariana stood there for a few seconds before carefully putting it away. As she turned around, she saw Spencer. She reached up to remove the necklace Spencer had put on her earlier and held it out to him. "Here. Take it back." Spencer did not take it. "I bought it for you. And when you have time, come pick up the others at home, too."Ariana shook her head. "I won't take them." Spencer gritted his teeth in frustration. "Throw them away then!" How could these men say such things without any concern as if money grew on trees? Ariana had no choice but to put the necklace in her bag. Spencer was displeased again. "You're not wearing it anymore?"Ariana said, "I shouldn't have agreed to bo

"Why would I go out of my way to get involved with Zane?" Spencer said. "He's the one who's trying to rob the cradle by setting his sights on Ari." "If you ask me, it's not surprising that anyone would be interested in Ari, given how exceptional she is." Jacob scolded him instead, "I've wanted to ask you for years. Were you completely blind not to see how great Ari is?" Spencer's face contorted with pain. "Please stop." "If you know you're wrong, then repent with all your heart. Don't always let your pride get in the way. What's more important, winning your wife back or protecting your dignity? "A real man knows when to be humble and when to stand tall. You can be strong out there, but what's wrong with bowing down in front of your wife and her family?" Spencer took the advice to heart. Though he was feeling down, he could not help but quip, "You seem to understand so much. Why haven't you found a woman yet, then?" Spencer's last jab after Jacob had kindly consoled him near

Chapter 420

"You're not so young anymore, so stop fooling around. Also, you should visit those places you took me and Sienna before less often in the future." "What's wrong with those places? I think they're fine." "What's fine about them? Rowan doesn't seem mild-tempered. Once or twice might be okay, but you'll hurt him if this keeps up. It'll be too late by the time you regret it." "That would be perfect, then! We'd just go our separate ways," Boa said. "That's exactly what I want!" "Watch what you're saying! How many good things have been ruined by that sharp tongue of yours? Others might not see it, but I know better. You clearly have feelings for Rowan." "Alright, now. You're so perceptive." Boa had an indifferent look on her face. "Let's not talk about this. Don't worry about my business. Let me ask you. Did Spencer show up?" "He did," Ariana said. "Not just Spencer, but also someone called Zane Marshall. I just found out that the necklace you lent me was actually his." "Who? Z
