Chapter 465
It was Lindsey, Ariah''s half- sister, who pushed open the door. Ariah was two years older than
Lindsey, whose mother passed away when she was young. It was also for this reason that she was
practically doted upon by her father and grandfather.
Standing at the entrance with a face full of disgust, Lindsey said, "How could you be so shameless?
This is the Myers Family!"
As Ariah rolled her eyes, Jimmy looked at her with a faint smile while maintaining their position a
moment ago. Raising his eyebrows, he asked, "Don''t you like this woman?"
Without answering him, Ariah pushed him away and calmly tidied up her clothes, after which she
pretended that she had just noticed Lindsey. "Oh, you''re back."
Her bad acting skills amused Jimmy, for her disgust was not concealed well while pretending to be a
friendly person.
In response, Lindsey nced at her and said, "I was wondering who was so shameless that she
could do such things on the sofa in broad daylight. It turned out to be you. Well, I''m not surprised at
all since your mom is that kind of person too."
Upon hearing that, Jimmy opened his eyes big in disbelief. Wasn''t Lindsey afraid that Ariah would
blow a fuse? Wasn''t she afraid of being beaten up?
However, what made him even more surprised and surprised was that Ariah did not get angry at all.
With a smile, she said, "That''s right, what we adults do is too disgusting. Lindsey, you''re still a child,
so you shouldn''t learn from me. Instead, you should always be a child. Don''t get married or look for
men. It''s better to stay innocent as how you have always been."
Jimmy coughed when he heard the sarcastic words.
Apparently, she had been suppressing her anger in order to verbally attack the woman.
Lindsey was rendered speechless by her incisive words. While staring at Ariah, she blushed
crimson and uttered angrily, "Y- You''re really shameless!"
Ariah shrugged her shoulders and didn''t bother to reply to Lindsey, who was too weak to confront
her.
At this moment, the door was opened again, and a man''s deep voice sounded, "What are you
arguing about? It''s so noisy!"
As soon as Lindsey heard this voice, she immediately threw herself into the middle-aged man''s
arms. "Dad!"
The man called Felix patted his little daughter''s shoulder dotingly. "Well, your sister seldomes
back home. Can''t you hold your temper? Don quarrel with her, or else your brother-inw willugh
at you."
Although he was scolding Lindsey, it was obvious that he was ming Ariah for being insensible.
Without saying anything, Ariah only looked at the scene and smirked coldly.
Those words made Lindsey hold her anger, so she snorted and red at Ariah before going
upstairs.
When Dakota heard the cacophony, she ran out of the kitchen. Seeing that Lindsey was leaving in
anger, she was stunned and did not know what to do. "W-What''s wrong with Lindsey?"
ring at her, Felix uttered, "You go up and console Lindsey. She quarreled with Ariah, but
fortunately Ariah didn''t take it to heart."
Upon hearing this, Dakota directly pointed at Ariah. "Lindsey is younger than you, so why can''t you
be more tolerant?"
After that, she went upstairs in a hurry without even taking off her apron.
Pursing her lips tightly, Ariah appeared cial while shuddering. It was after taking a few deep
breaths that she managed to control her emotions.
As Jimmy held her shoulder, he asked in a deep voice, "Ariah, are you alright?"
Upon saying that she was fine, she pushed him away and went to the balcony, where the cold gust
of wind gradually calmed her down.
She had been holding his temper for so many years, so why did she get angry just now? Wasn''t it
better to hold her temper for a little longer?
However, she could not let her mother live here without dignity.
Confused, Ariah looked at the depressing scenery in the distance as her lips became pale...
Narrowing his eyes, Jimmy looked at the lonely woman standing on the balcony. A sense of
uneasiness welled up in his chest as he recalled her helpless expression while trying to suppress
her rage.
When he heard Felix call him, he lookedzily at the so-called father-inw and said faintly, "Sorry, I
was thinking about something else. What were you saying just now?"
Embarrassed, Felix responded, "How''s your father? It''s been a long time since west met each
other. I wonder how Minister Hudson is doing now."
With a grin, Jimmy replied, "Thanks for your concern. My father is in good health, and I''ll convey
your wishes to him. Not long ago, he got promoted again, so he may be a little busy at work and
can''t meet his old friends so often."

Felix and Jimmy''s father were oldrades- inarms. Over the past few decades, the Hudson
Family had been doing quite well, but the Myers Family seemed to be troubled by some problems.
The difference in status between the two men thus became bigger day by day, and their rtionship
was also not as good as before...
After thinking for a moment, Felix uttered, "Lindsey said that there are some rumors about you and
Ariah..."
"Just ignore it."
Before Felix finished his words, Jimmy interrupted him directly. "Don''t believe those rumors just
because we seldome back. Ariah and I are very busy with our work."
Hearing what he said, Felix could only nod his head with embarrassment. "If you have time, please
come back often for dinner."
"Of course."
Jimmy''s words were watertight, which betrayed no emotions at all. Therefore, Felix had nothing to
comment on and directly went upstairs with his briefcase.
After standing outside for a long while, Ariah''s teeth started chattering, which prompted her to go
back to the house and stop torturing herself.
"Bang!"
As soon as she turned around, she fell into a man''s warm embrace, which emitted a familiar scent.
In order to prevent herself from falling, Ariah subconsciously reached out to grab him.
However, she gripped his waist so tightly that he took a breath of cold air in pain.
The man turned out to be Jimmy, who held her firmly and dragged her directly into the warm living
room. Then he pushed her body away and grinned. "Did you want to pluck out my flesh?"
At that moment, Ariah felt a little awkward and muttered, "If you hadn''t appeared behind me like a
ghost, would I..."
"What is it?" The man squinted his eyes suggestively and raised his voice.
Immediately, she shut her mouth.
That pleased Jimmy who sized her up and said, "Ariah, I just knew that you''re indeed a pitiful girl.
Both your dad and mom didn''t really care about you."
