Arielle Moore and Vinson Nightshire
Chapter 1226

Chapter 1226 Take Advantage

Those eyes were cold and dark, like those of a vicious rattlesnake.

The man with those eyes even had a resolute grin on his face when he was staring at Arielle.

He then turned around and gave a retreat gesture and left the orphanage silently.

"Mr. Aaron." A bodyguard behind the man uttered, "Are you not going to take the golden opportunity and grab Ms. Moore now?"

"What a dimwit!" Aaron glared at his subordinate. "Did you forget something even more important than this? We're here to bring back the head of the Mills!" He could only grab Arielle after he dealt with the future head of the Mills.

Otherwise, his plan in Chanaea would be in jeopardy if Vinson noticed something off. Everything will be in vain if Vinson intercepts us!

"But..." After some hesitation, the subordinate said, "I think Mr. Sleight is getting a little too close to Ms. Moore. What if she chooses him and leaves Vinson?" "Hmph! That guy is just trying to take advantage of the situation! We don't have to worry about him!" Aaron scoffed and said disdainfully.

As he was speaking, he got into the car.

Despite what he said, he couldn't help but notice the way Arielle smiled at Jason. Will she allow this man to pursue her?

"We have got to move faster!" Aaron glanced at his subordinate from the corners of his eyes. "We need to replace out who are the candidates for the Mills."

"Yes!" the subordinate answered. He couldn't help but feel helpless. This time around, everyone has been very tight-lipped about the Mills' heir selection. No one knows anything about the candidates or the criteria for evaluation. In fact, only the family members of the Mills know those details. How am I supposed to know anything when the people who infiltrated the family are still in the dark?

Meanwhile, Arielle felt something weird the moment Aaron left. She then cast her gaze toward a dimly lit corner.

"What is it?" Jason noticed her gaze. "What are you looking at?"

"It's nothing..." Arielle pressed her temple and continued, "I felt like someone was watching me. Maybe I was just imagining it."

Jason laughed. "Perhaps one of the kids was staring at you because you're so pretty."

Arielle gulped when she heard that. Prior to that, Jason would always mock and insult her. I'm so not used to him complimenting me.

"Please don't flatter me. I'm not used to it," she said.

Jason's expression froze slightly before looking at her with a straight face. "You haven't given me an answer for what I've just told you earlier on. So? Will you give me a chance?"

Jason wanted Arielle to divorce Vinson and be with himself instead. "I know Vinson is way better than me in many aspects. However, my intentions are pure and sincere. I can promise you that my feelings for you will never change. These are the things Vinson will never be able to give you. Perhaps, you should consider taking a new path in life rather than being stuck in a lousy marriage."

"Lousy?" Arielle shook her head. "No, you've misunderstood the situation. I've been wanting to tell you that this is all a misunderstanding."

"What misunderstanding? Wasn't Vinson holding another woman back there?"

Arielle pursed her lips and kept mum for a few seconds before saying, "That was really a misunderstanding. It was our plan all along for me to catch him cheating. There's no problem with our relationship.” "Plan?" Jason raised his voice.

He then quickly realized he might've scared the kids, so he lowered his voice and said, "Arielle, please don't lie to me. That can't be a misunderstanding, nor was it a plan. You have nothing to be ashamed of because you've done nothing wrong! So, you don't have to lie to me."
