Unconscious Husband: Meet Her Love In Silence by Ken Slaner

Chapter: 764
“You? ALL by yourself? Jasper, you’re a laugh.” Sarah discarded her diplomatic facade. She moved forward with a commanding
stride, her towering heels amplifying her formidable presence. She responded in a sarcastic tone, “Don’t hold yourself in such
high regard. You’re no match for Ariana. Evaluate your own shortcomings before pointing out others’. Your track record with
Brielle is enough proof of your incompetence.”
“Watch your mouth, Sarah. I can ensure you’re shunned in this industry.
Cross paths with the Anderson Group? Let’s see who’d dare to employ you!” Jasper’s retort was laced with a threatening
promise. “Brace yourself for the penalty!”
On the periphery of the heated exchange, the HR head silently spectated. His internal sigh was almost audible as he rubbed his
forehead in distress.
The company’s precarious state was more and more evident with each passing moment, yet Jasper seemed to relish his fleeting
victory. He was truly inept, a pale shadow of his predecessor, Theodore.
Watching the volatile showdown, he shook his head in disillusionment.
The Anderson Group teetered on the brink of disaster, a collapse looming ominously. Any person with a modicum of wisdom
would perceive this as a signal to find an alternative escape route.
As Ariana dashed to the office, she found that Sarah and Tyler had already accepted Jasper’s termination contract. Having
agreed to the penalty clause, they were making preparations to leave.

Reaching the office, Ariana met them in the entranceway, locking eyes for a few moments before she asked, “Did you guys sign
off?”
At Ariana’s question, Sarah, realizing she was informed, gave a straightforward nod. “Yes, we signed.”
Ariana hadn’t anticipated such a swift resolution, a resolution in which she had no say. Her frustration found voice as she blurted,
“Couldn’t you have told me before making this significant decision? Even Betsy kept me in the dark!”
Sarah quickly took Ariana aside, to spare her team any undeserved blame. “It was my idea. They had no part in it.” Her gentle
voice laid out their rationale for the decision.
Ariana listened, and felt her anger melt a bit.
Sarah continued, sighing, “If you’re seeking someone to blame, point the finger at Jasper. But for now, let’s focus on resolving
this.
Remember, you’re pregnant. Anger won’t do any good for you or the baby.
I’ve managed to save a lot, and your guidance has been invaluable to me. I can handle the penalty.”
Spotting Aziel standing a little distance away, Sarah leaned closer to Ariana. “Plus, Aziel’s completely on board with my decision
to terminate. His financial status is more robust than I imagined. We’re okay.”
Sarah’s explanation soothed Ariana’s anger, though she couldn’t entirely shake off a twinge of guilt. Sarah was wise to leave the
Anderson Group, but the hefty penalty was indeed a hit.
Sensing Ariana’s lingering distress, Sarah added, “Moreover, the company’s headed for a fall under Jasper’s reign. SJ
Entertainment is akin to a sinking ship. Our decision wasn’t impulsive. It was in the best interest of everyone’s future. Please

don’t blame yourself.”
Fully understanding Sarah’s perspective, Ariana composed herself. “I’m just sorry for you.” That was all she could say.
Sarah was a star, steadily rising in popularity. With her standing, she could easily launch a new album and snatch several
Grammys. But this roadblock was stalling her career yet again.
Understanding Ariana’s worries, Sarah tried to reassure her. “A five-year hiatus is in my past, and this hurdle is nothing
compared to that. I’ve been mulling over starting my own studio, and it’s the right moment now to terminate. Tyler has a bright
future, and staying in SJ Entertainment will only impede his growth. Let’s not overthink this. We’re hoping you bounce back soon
and join us.“
Listening to Sarah, Ariana felt a mixture of gratitude and helplessness, with a wave of guilt washing over her
It’s one thing to say it, another to live it. Right now, she felt Like she was floundering, utterly adrift. Theodore’s feigned demise
had left her unprepared, and even though she had figured out his plan, she couldn’t share it with anyone. All she wished for at
this moment was for Theodore to appear, just so she could deliver a punch to him, between bouts of laughter and tears.
“Don’t worry. We’re owning up to our decisions,” said Betsy, stepping forward to offer Ariana a few comforting words.
