Dead at Heart (Ariel and Jayson) novel Chapter 504

Veyo Solutions‘ project was progressing exceptionally well, and the cocktail party drew a good crowd.

Scandals aside, everyone knew the project’s value. Who would turn their back on future prospects and money?

If it weren’t for Cedric, they might have had reason to worry. But this time was different.

When Matt arrived at Veyo Solutions, he couldn’t help but comment, “Jayson really set you up with a top- tier operation here. With both of you managing, you don’t have to sweat the small stuff. He’ll handle everything.”

Nancy caught Matt’s meaning. He was saying that they worked well together and Jayson had truly thought things through for her.

“Jayson has set up the management team. Even if he doesn’t come by often, I’m not too worried.”

Matt glanced at her, his eyes flickering briefly before he smiled. “I heard you settled that penalty. How’d you manage it? Did you talk to Jayson about it?”

Nancy was the first to spot Ariel.

But now that Ariel was here…

Nancy didn’t overthink it and walked over to Ariel and had.

“Mr. Hockney.” Nancy nodded to Chad. The disaster at the art exhibition seemed largely behind her now.

Chad raised an eyebrow, admiring Nancy’s mindset. People who achieved big things really thought differently.

After a pause, Nancy turned to Ariel and called out slowly, “Ms. Walker.”

Ariel looked up at her. Nancy, wearing heels, still carried a quiet arrogance in her eyes. It was subtle yet unmistakable.

“Since you’ve graced us with your presence, Ms. Walker I think we could use this chance for a proper talk,” Nancy said casually while looking at Ariel.

Today’s cocktail party was a grand affair. It was partly to promote the project and partly to overshadow the art exhibition scandal, redirecting everyone’s attention to Veyo Solutions‘ highly valuable new venture.

The effect was definitely noticeable.

Ariel knew Nancy wanted to talk about the lawsuit and that she was most likely attempting to negotiate with her

But Nancy’s attitude…
