Chapter 313: The Bracelet on the Left Wrist [3]
"I have no idea about the things happening to you, it was another man who accompanied you for eight years; how can I not be jealous?"Arlo Seys murmured softly, his gaze falling on Ariel Morris’s drooping left wrist resting on the quilt, where a delicate bracelet was worn on her snowy white wrist, dazzling.
Arlo Seys looked at the bracelet feeling it stung his eyes, reaching out toward Ariel Morris’s left hand.
He wanted to take off the bracelet, remove things given by another man.
But when his hand touched the bracelet, it suddenly withdrew. She hadn’t hidden anything from him; earlier she voluntarily told him about meeting Langdon Seal. She was so candid. If he took her bracelet off while she was sleeping, what would she think?
His gaze fell onto her jade-like neck, where a custom-made EX necklace ’Lock Love’ was hanging. Arlo Seys felt a little comforted.
The necklace he gave her, she had never taken off. This bracelet, if she truly liked it, why should he care about a chain? As long as she’s happy, that’s what matters!
Arlo Seys, you should be more generous, you need to trust Ariel’s love for you!
Beside him, Ariel Morris suddenly shifted, feeling warm breath touching her face, she opened drowsy eyes and murmured: "Arlo, why aren’t you sleeping yet? It’s so late."
Arlo Seys gave a faint smile, lowered his head to plant a gentle kiss on her forehead, "Ariel, good night."
Ariel Morris’s cheek dimple blossomed, "Good night, Arlo."
Ariel Morris sank back into deep sleep, Arlo Seys turned his head to look at the peacefully sleeping person beside him, the light expression on his face became gentle.
She’s by his side, he should be contented with everything, just a bracelet, don’t worry about it.
Arlo Seys reminded himself inwardly, turned and embraced the sleeping person’s waist, the corners of his lips lifting into a soft smile, and fell asleep.

The next afternoon, Ariel Morris received a call from Scarlett Morris, saying she was waiting for her at the reception on the first floor of Era.
Ariel Morris went down from the sixty-eighth floor, puzzled.
As soon as she left, Arlo Seys came out of the CEO office, and upon seeing Ariel Morris’s empty seat, his brows furrowed involuntarily.
Callan Walkers, the assistant who read his thoughts, immediately reported the whereabouts, "Reporting to President Seys, Secretary Morris went to the first floor; someone at the reception is looking for her!"
Arlo Seys glanced coolly at Callan Walkers, "Did I ask anything? Mind your own business!"
His thoughts were so obvious? Even Callan could see through it! Arlo Seys felt uneasy and headed to the elevator.
"......"
BOSS, your proud look is adorable, no wonder the uniquely tasteful Miss Morris adores you! Callan grumbled inwardly.
Ariel Morris learned at the reception that Scarlett Morris was in the lounge, so she went to the lounge.
Ariel Morris entered the lounge and saw Scarlett Morris playing with her phone, "Did you need something from me?"
Scarlett Morris shifted her gaze from her phone to Ariel Morris, her expression displaying impatience, "Why did it take you so long to come down? Ariel Morris, you’re impressive! Eight years later, you’re back and managed to win Arlo Seys’s attention again! Even got promoted to the sixty-eighth floor of Era, Arlo Seys’s office area, you’ve really got skills!"
Ariel Morris glanced at Scarlett Morris, her tone flat: "You reached out just to brag about these trivial things? Sorry, I have work to do." After speaking, Ariel Morris intended to turn and leave.
"Stay put! Mom asked me to bring you some chicken soup, she made it for you." Scarlett Morris handed a thermos bottle to Ariel Morris, coldly snorting.
Why was she the Morris Family’s daughter, yet their mother didn’t make soup for her and had her deliver it to Ariel Morris, this adopted orphan?! Why did she have to serve this orphan girl?!
Scarlett Morris felt extremely unbalanced.
