Unconscious Husband: Meet Her Love In Silence by Ken Slaner

Chapter: 794
Access to the elevator leading to the offices was blocked. As Ariana edged closer to the crowd, snippets of conversations about
the company floated to her, coaxing her to draw nearer.
“Did you catch the Latest headlines?”
“Why bother? Weren’t we all witnesses to yesterday’s events?”
“I heard payroll won’t be met today. They’re calling it a delay, but the truth is, they’re short on funds.”
Upon closer inspection, Ariana spotted several uniform-clad individuals at the reception, bellowing, “We’re here for our dues. We
won’t budge until you settle today!”
She then approached a girl in the crowd and queried, “What’s the situation?”
The girl shrugged, letting out a sigh. “I don’t have all the details. I only heard Mr. Anderson is deep in debt due to the project.
Some folks are apprehensive that he might abscond if the company goes under, so they demand immediate payment.”
The reception desk reverberated with loud voices, threatening to escalate into a conflict with Darian.
Ariana, retreating to a corner, was swamped with growing concerns about Theodore. It appeared the Anderson Group was
headed for doom.
She yearned to locate Theodore and discuss the unfolding situation, but every access point was barricaded. Her anxiety
escalated, haunted by the fear of Theodore vanishing once more without a trace.

Suddenly, the entrance was abuzz with activity. Ariana’s gaze fell upon Adrian, who was striding in with an entourage, the
screaming crowd parting to make way for him.
Adrian had overlooked Ariana in several previous encounters, so, sensibly, she melded into the crowd, feigning obliviousness.
However, to her surprise, Adrian halted his stride as he passed her and queried, “What brings you here?”
“Excuse me?” Ariana was taken aback. She hadn’t anticipated any interaction with him. Flustered, she replied, “I’m searching for
someone.”
Despite her reluctance to name the person, Adrian was acutely aware that she was there for Theodore.
His suspicion that she might be pregnant had somehow been aroused by a cursory glance at Ariana’s oversized attire.
Suppressing his astonishment, he arched his eyebrows, cleared his throat, and advised, “The Anderson Group is in quite a bit of
turmoil currently. It would be prudent for you to avoid visiting unless absolutely necessary to prevent any unwarranted
involvement.”
Before Ariana could respond, Adrian was already a considerable distance away, his entourage in tow.
Ariana contemplated tailing him into the elevator to find Theodore. As she was about to advance, her phone chirped.
Upon inspection, a message from Theodore appeared on the screen.
“Do not fret. I’LL see you at home tonight.”
The moment a message from Theodore illuminated her screen, a sigh of relief escaped Ariana’s lips.

As long as he remained within reach, she felt secure.
Having responded with a brief “okay” and pocketing her phone, she discarded the thought of accompanying Adrian upstairs.
Nevertheless, observing the palpable tension seeping through the Anderson Group, worry gnawed at her.
