Ariana shrugged off the evaluating glances and conjectures. Having given Jasper a deserving kick, she
was in unexpectedly high spirits.
Yet, considering Theodore’s recent passing, she couldn’t allow her happiness to show blatantly. Hence,
she maintained a calm demeanor, heading back to her desk to organize her possessions.
Soon enough, Marge hurried over, her features registering surprise as she noticed Ariana packing up.
She couldn’t suppress her astonishment and blurted, “Ariana, are you really quitting?”
Ariana confirmed Marge’’s shock with a nod.
Unable to make sense of the situation, a worried Marge inquired, “The company just announced your
suspension on charges of using your power for personal gain. This… This can’t be accurate, can it?”
With a cynical Laugh, Ariana replied, “It’s all baseless.”
While Ariana systematically arranged the paperwork on her desk, she couldn’t ignore Marge’s anxious

once I am gone, you must stay vigilant here. The Anderson Group is a reputable firm, but it’s not your
only alternative. Look elsewhere if necessary.”
Theodore wouldn’t have executed such a detailed plan for Darian and Jasper to simply bask in a

Given Jasper and Darian’s strange conduct, the Anderson Group was likely involved in this scheme.
Theodore’s recent behavior indicated a significant gamble, implying he might be planning to topple the

However, Ariana couldn’t outright reveal these insights to Marge.
Instead, she had to subtly convey her concerns, unsure if Marge would pick up on the indirect

Upon hearing of Ariana’s departure, Marge fell quiet, assisting Ariana in her packing. As they neared
the end, Marge finally voiced her thoughts, her tone tinged with wistfulness, “We may not be colleagues
anymore, but let’s not Lose touch. Don’t let your departure sever our connection.”
Observing Ariana’s pale face and signs of fatigue, Marge couldn’t help a surge of empathy. She offered
sincere counsel, “Keep your chin up and don’t lose faith. Life still holds much beauty. If you ever need
my assistance, reach out.”
Marge’s genuine concern moved Ariana, inciting a flicker of guilt, as her desolation was merely a

“I thought you were so capable, but it turns out you’re just relying on connections,” sneered the group,
blocking Ariana’s path.
Unfazed, Ariana chose to ignore their taunts and tried to leave, but the persistent crowd didn’t give way.
One of them continued to mock her, “No wonder you were able to drive away Lyla before. You were
taking advantage of your position to bully others.”
“It’s not just bullying. You have a husband, yet you are still trying to seduce your own sister’s fiancé.
