Chapter 416: The Fifty Million from 8 Years Ago! [1]
Arlo Seys returned to the room and saw the person sleeping on the bed, his thin lips tightly pressed, eyes deep.He walked over, squatted by the bed, and his slender, fair fingers brushed against Ariel Morris’s sleeping face. In a low voice, he said, "Ariel, how could you... how is it possible..."
Arlo Seys looked at Ariel’s unparalleled beauty, his expression turning resolute and cold. "Ariel, the debt the Morris Family owes you, I will recover for you. Ariel, I just want you to be by my side, worry-free, for a lifetime."

The next day, Arlo Seys took Ariel Morris to Era.
Just as they arrived at Era, Callan Walkers came over with a document and said respectfully to Arlo Seys, "President Seys, the meeting time with President Forest has arrived, and I’ve prepared the contract. We can depart."
Arlo Seys nodded, looking at Ariel Morris beside him with a gentle voice and warm eyes: "Ariel, wait for me in the office. If you want to sleep, go to my lounge. The office door code is your birthday. If you get bored, let Nicole take you shopping, but don’t go out alone."
He feared the previous scare might happen again.
Ariel Morris smiled and nodded, "Go ahead, I’ll take care of myself. You are now someone who earns money and will have to support a family in the future."
Callan Walkers joked, "Miss Morris, even if you have ten, my boss can afford it."
Arlo Seys glared at Callan, "Why are you talking so much?!" Doesn’t he know he’s a third wheel?
Callan Walkers waved the document, jingled the keys in his hand mischievously, and said, "I’ll go start the car in the parking lot first, President Seys."
Callan Walkers left, and Arlo Seys gave Ariel a warm smile, "Ariel, take good care of yourself. I’ll be back soon. Also, take care of our little baby."
Ariel Morris nodded, "Arlo, bye-bye, good luck, I hope today’s collaboration with President Forest goes smoothly!"
"Okay."
Arlo Seys went out to meet President Forest, and Ariel sat bored at the desk browsing web news. Because of the pregnancy, Arlo had already had Callan distribute all her work to other secretaries, leaving her bored in the office.
As she was scrolling through the news, her phone suddenly vibrated. She looked at the caller ID, which was a string of unfamiliar numbers, and Ariel answered the call.
"Hello, who is this?"
"Ariel, it’s me." A gentle voice came from the phone.
Ariel was a bit surprised, "Aunt Seys? Do you... need something from me?" Could it really be Arlo’s mother, Madam Seys?!
"Ariel, I’m at a café outside of Era. I’d like to chat with you. Do you have some time?"
Veralina Quinn’s voice was very gentle, just like her person, as gentle as water, a perfect match with Arlo’s father, Evan Seys, who was strong and firm! No wonder they raised someone as perfect and flawless as Arlo.
"Alright, Aunt Seys, I’ll come right over."
Ariel Morris hung up the phone and explained the situation to Nicole, who was working diligently, then left the 68th floor, walked out of Era, and arrived at the location agreed with Veralina Quinn.
Ariel Morris reached the café and saw Veralina Quinn sitting by a window. She walked over with a smile, "Aunt Seys, sorry to keep you waiting."
Veralina Quinn smiled slightly, "Ariel, you’re here. Sit down, don’t be formal."
Ariel Morris nodded and took a seat opposite Veralina Quinn. The waiter poured Ariel a cup of tea, and Ariel thanked them, then looked at Veralina Quinn across from her, "Aunt, is there something you wanted to discuss?"
Veralina Quinn held her tea, elegant and poised, and smiled slightly, her eyes on Ariel: "Ariel, did you once attend Scenic Hill?"
