Dead at Heart (Ariel and Jayson) novel Chapter 856

Worse, Renee wasn't even paid for the job.

Renee rocked Clarie to sleep while her frustration bubbled over. "Are you two even human? I'm still a young woman in my prime, and you've worn me down to a frazzled mom!"

No response came, just silence.

She seriously thought she might be the one developing postpartum depression.

…

Jayson and Ariel did have plans to catch a movie. But first, there was a dinner gathering. Chad had organized it.

As soon as they arrived, Janice burst in, rushing to gulp down warm water.

"Ever since the temperature dropped, I'm wobbling just getting out of the car," she complained, rubbing her hands together.

Then, she glanced at Jayson, who was helping Ariel adjust her scarf. She couldn't help but tease, "You two seem pretty cozy now. Like an old married couple or something."

Ariel just smiled but didn't say a word.

Jayson casually glanced up. "Really? We're already keeping it down."

Janice rolled her eyes. She didn't know that Jayson was such a show-off.

"What, are you jealous?" Chad showed up and smacked Janice on the back of the head.

Janice glared at him, clutching her head. "So what if I am? I'm going to book a private room with ten male escorts tonight to pour me drinks and give me massages!"

Ariel smirked.

Chad gave her a look. "All talk and no action."

Janice was rendered speechless.

"That's very true." Ariel exchanged a look with Chad and gave a nod of approval.

Though Janice talked a big game, she was actually extremely innocent inside. She was just really good at bluffing.

"Hey, hey! This isn't my roast session. Focus on the point." Janice slapped the table in annoyance.
