Chapter: 754
“What do you want?” Ariana asked directly.
Seeing Ariana’s comprehension, Jasper’s smile widened, and he regarded her with a profound gaze. He waved his hand,
dismissing Sarah and Donna, and uttered, “For now, you two can Leave. I have a private discussion to engage in with my dear
Ariana.”
Upon hearing Jasper address her as “dear”, a shudder of repulsion coursed through Ariana’s veins, leaving her overwhelmed by
a nauseating disgust.
In the past, Jasper would inadvertently let slip his repugnant thoughts in Theodore’s presence, but now, believing Theodore to be
dead, he shamelessly flaunted his desires, unabashed and unapologetic!
Donna, ever the obedient one, promptly prepared to exit the room as instructed. However, Sarah, driven by her unwavering
concern, firmly clung to Ariana’s hand, her gaze filled with a mixture of worry and determination. “Ariana, I’m not going anywhere!
That despicable man must be up to something as evil as his soul!”
Ariana comprehended Sarah’s apprehension, but she knew that their options were Limited at the moment. Also, she had her
own plans!
“No need to worry, everything will be fine. Trust me,” Ariana reassured Sarah, her touch gentle as she patted her hand. “Besides,
we are still within the walls of the company. He wouldn’t dare cross the boundaries.”
With Ariana’s persuasive words echoing in her mind, Sarah reluctantly retreated from the room, her steps sluggish and Laden
with reluctance.
Initially, Sarah had intended to station herself near the doorway, ready to intervene if the need arose. However, Jasper
exchanged a knowing glance with Donna.
Donna, catching the signal, addressed Sarah in a cold, detached tone, “Sarah, come with me. There’s something I need to
discuss with you.”
Asserting her dominance, Donna firmly grasped Sarah’s arm and guided her away from the office. When the office was empty,
Jasper wasted no time. He swiftly approached the door, ensuring it was firmly closed and securely locked.
Ariana, cool and collected, observed his every move, her senses heightened with caution as she kept her distance.
With a sharp turn, Jasper’s eyes blazed with unrestrained aggression, fixing them on Ariana, his intent well too obvious.
Ariana, her discomfort mounting, felt compelled to confront him head-on. “So, what is it that you want?” she demanded, her voice
steady and laced with an undercurrent of resolve.
“It’s a simple matter,” Jasper started, looking at her with eyes oozing greed. “With Theodore’s demise, you find yourself without
any support.
It would be wise for you to obediently return to my side.”
Ariana’s brows knitted together, a surge of repugnance threatening to break through her carefully crafted facade.
“I suppose I can overlook the fact that you are married.” Jasper feigned magnanimity as if he were making a grand sacrifice. “In
the future, I will assume the role of the family’s head. If you are willing, you could regain your position as the matriarch of the
Anderson family, once again enjoying all the privileges that were once bestowed upon you.”
Ariana, hearing his words, struggled to suppress her disdain, her gaze subtly shifting as she locked eyes with him. “But aren’t
you on the verge of marrying Brielle?”
Jasper’s eyes flickered with a tinge of contempt when he heard that name, and he derisively scoffed, “Brielle? What significance
does she hold? She is but an empty facade, utterly insignificant without me. She is far from deserving the title of my wife!”
Amusement danced in Ariana’s eyes as she found herself genuinely intrigued by his ulterior motives. One moment, he sought to
ruin her, and now he desired to possess her. If she were not privy to Jasper’s true nature, she would suspect him of suffering
from a split personality.

Smiling mockingly, Ariana asked, “Weren’t you fiercely protective of Brielle before?”
Failing to perceive the sarcasm in Ariana’s words, Jasper, momentarily intoxicated by his own happiness, misconstrued her
intentions as jealousy and coquetry. He hastened to respond, “You misunderstand.
Those previous actions were merely temporary strategies for promoting the movie. However, now that I am the acting CEO, my
status has become exceedingly prestigious. A woman like Brielle is not worthy of me.”
Proudly asserting his newfound position, Jasper glanced down at Ariana, then abruptly shifted the conversation. “In fact,
considering your background as a fallen heiress and a widow, you, too, did not initially meet my standards. But I tend to be loyal
and faithful. I cannot forget you, and your abilities are quite commendable, surpassing BrieLle’s. So I don’t mind marrying you.”
