Chapter 1049
Ariana had never intended to meddle with Rollingrock Media, but now that the damage was done, she had to face the consequences.
Calvert exchanged a few polite words with Shawn before he left with his team. “You guys can return to practice,” Ariana told Tom and the others.
Shortly after, just Shawn and Ariana were left in the room.
Ariana expressed her gratitude to Shawn, and he brushed it off.
“No need to thank me. | was just following Mr. Fredrick’s instructions.”
Ariana was taken aback by this but soon realized that Holden must have been aware of the situation. Otherwise, Shawn wouldn't have visited her.
“Get some rest, Miss Edwards. You can cancel your appointment with Adele this week. Resume her treatment after you’ve recovered,” Shawn advised.
Ariana nodded and engaged in a conversation with Shawn for some time before he took his leave.
Ariana sat on the bed, lost in thought. She felt remorseful for her indifference towards Holden the previous day and appreciated his support today.
Despite Sadie’s annoyance, Holden didn’t cause her any trouble. She shouldn’t have poured out her anger on him the previous day.
With that in mind, Ariana took her mobile phone and opened Holden's account on the video platform. She couldn't directly convey her gratitude to him, and Holden might not be aware that she already knew the account belonged to him.
After careful consideration, Ariana transferred him 666, 666.66 dollars.
At this moment, Holden was in a meeting. He was listening to reports while also keeping an eye on Shawn’s messages. One notification caught his attention, displaying the message, “Miss Edwards is in good health.”
Subsequently, he turned his phone screen-down on the table, to fully concentrate on the meeting.
After the meeting ended, Holden finally picked up his phone. He discovered a money transfer from Ariana that left him bewildered.
He stared at the transaction, pondering the unexpected payment.
After a moment of hesitation, he responded with a simple question mark.
The response came immediately. “As a token of gratitude.” Moments later, she added, “Thank you for calling Melon.”
Holden’s initial reaction wasn’t joy, but an inexplicable sense of anxiety. He clenched his phone, fearing Ariana might be distancing herself from him, possibly ending their connection.
For some reason, he began to panic. No, this can’t happen.
Holden stared at his phone screen, his mind drifting to the man from the previous night. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
