Chapter: 787

Sarah, struggling to comprehend the magnitude of the story, reached out to Ariana privately for

confirmation.

Ariana confirmed the authenticity of the scandal. Sarah responded with the word “bastard” and an

exploding head emoji.

After responding to Sarah, Ariana sensed a familiar presence behind her. She turned instinctively, her

forehead inadvertently meeting Theodore’s lips in a gentle collision.

In that brief moment, Ariana’s heart quickened its pace, a blush rising to her cheeks. She then stepped

back.

Theodore’s hair was drenched, with water dripping from his angular face to his Adam’s apple and then

to his clothing.

Ariana couldn’t help but feel a surge of emotions, her pulse racing.

Acting quickly, she grabbed a dry towel and motioned for Theodore to sit down, gently drying his hair.

Theodore sat there quietly, his arms encircling Ariana’s waist, a playful pinch accentuating his words as

he whispered, “Seems like you’ve gained a few pounds. It’s not just my imagination, is it?”

Though Theodore thought he spoke discreetly, Ariana caught every word, her eyes rolling playfully as

she ruffled his hair with playful exasperation.

Unaware of her response, Theodore’s fingers danced along her waist, seeking more than just a casual

touch.

Sensing his intention, Ariana swiftly disentangled herself from his embrace, retreating to another sofa,

creating a physical divide between them.

Before Theodore could react, Ariana had slipped away from his grasp, leaving him to gaze at her with a

forlorn expression.

With seriousness etched on her face, Ariana locked eyes with Theodore, her voice measured and

resolute. “Tell me, Theodore. Why did you keep Marley’s true identity as your sister hidden from me?

Did you find pleasure in watching me fumble in the dark, searching for the truth?”

Theodore was at a loss as to what to say about the suffering that he had been through.

With a slight bow of his head, he reached out to clasp Ariana’s hand and explained, “Forgive me… I’ve

kept things from you. Marley’s identity was a tangled web of complications. It was a pivotal moment

and there was irreparable damage between Darian and me. My mother hadn’t been buried yet. I

wanted to share everything with you when the things settled.”

Ariana empathized with Theodore.

She understood the depth of his sacrifice and the risks he had taken.

Concerned about Theodore’s relationship with Helen, she inquired, “What about Helen? Why do you

show her such Leniency?”

Leniency? Theodore was perplexed, for he believed he had never treated Helen with undue leniency.

Still, he explained, “I am not being lenient with Helen. She was Marley’s dearest friend, and it was

Marley’s wish to help cure Helen’s ailing heart. I merely sought to spare her further distress.”

Seeing that Ariana was still somewhat displeased, he continued, “I know you prefer not to see Helen,

so I made arrangements to keep her at a distance from you.”

This explanation assuaged Ariana’s unease. Then, a memory stirred within her. She recalled the night

at the Anderson family’s residence when Helen wove an elaborate tale about Marley’s identity, a tale

that seemed flawless. Suddenly, something struck her. She Looked at Theodore with a furrowed brow

and questioned, “Is Helen the daughter of Marianna, the servant at the Anderson family’s residence?”

“How did you come to know?” Theodore gazed at her in astonishment. He couldn’t recall ever

mentioning Helen to her.

Ariana comprehended and pressed on, “Is it true?”

Theodore nodded. “Indeed, Helen is Marianna’s daughter. When my mother resided in the Anderson

family’s estate, Marianna was constantly by her side. She served as a housekeeper of sorts, and

everyone in the residence took good care of Helen.”
