Arianna’s family was falling apart and facing a tragic demise, however, her heart sank when she clearly saw Travis Cooper’s name on the acquisition papers. She had no choice but to negotiate with him.
Arianna lowered her head and relaxed her shoulders to ease the tension. She should show him gratefulness to make him happier, she thought, but she just couldn’t do it.
“How would you be willing to leave my grandfather alone?”
He casually poured her a cup of tea and placed it in front of her before replying, “I think the correct person to ask is the judge, no? The offenders are usually punished. This is a matter of justice, isn’t it?”
Arianna was beginning to grow tired of his mood swings.
“He is old, and his body is failing him. He would not last long in prison.” Arianna continued to try to sway him.
“What can I do? I always admire devoted children.” His voice carried some ridicule, “But I’m not a charity. I only do transactions with interests. What would you do in exchange for the freedom of your grandfather?”
Travis intertwined the fingers of his one hand with the other and rested his hands on his stomach as he leaned back in his chair once more. His expression was a bit lazy, “Since you entered this door, I’ve been waiting for the drama of you selling your body and soul to me in order to save your family member.”
When Arianna didn’t reply, Travis explicitly said, “Maybe I’m just bored. I’d like to try something fun.”
Arianna’s stomach felt like it flipped. She looked at the handsome face that was now showing evil.

Ryan couldn’t help paying another glance in the rearview mirror to see her when he was driving.


Arianna had very different looks between day and night.


At night time, she often wore a rich color on her lip and a perfume fragrance to match. Her dull expression showed a monstrous beauty.


Ryan would not look anywhere he wasn’t supposed to when Travis was present. But when he was alone with Arianna, he observed her.


He watched her spray perfume on her body and applied lipstick in the small car mirror. Arianna felt his eyes on her and said. politely, “Try pretending like you didn’t see it, thanks.”


Since then, Ryan has paid attention to Arianna and discovered one of her secrets. The color of her lipstick and the scent of her perfume were always ever-changing. They were rarely repeated when she was with Travis Cooper.


Arianna raised her head and lifted her hand toward Ryan’s neck. Her fingertips brushed his skin, and he jerked the wheel.
