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.

She had to sell her body to survive. Her new husband was gone, and she had lost her mind. And Arianna’s grandfather did that to her deliberately. Therefore, Arianna could somehow understand Travis Cooper’s current revenge, even though she could not forgive him.


As for her father, Arianna didn’t know if Travis was working for Transcendent Jewels at the time of his death, but he was so closely associated with the company now that her grandfather automatically put the blame on him.


Travis took advantage of the greedy nature of humans and was a master of deception. People always cheat on one another in every corner of the world. Some were lucky enough to dodge the misfortune, while others were prone to bad luck. Those who survived became strong, and those who could not be weak. In Arianna’s eyes, her father was the unlucky type, and her mother was one of the weak.
