Liam read the trending toples , and his expression changed drastically .
Many people gathered outside the Saxon Manor , and the Saxon Group’s stock price was
splummating .
It was stupid to hush the crowd up now , but there were such fouls . All the trending topics and Videos about Aria were deleted within a short time .
One key opinion leader left a sharp comment online . [ Justice can’t beat the capitalists ! ||
Soon , the deletion was said to be conducted by the Sason Group , and it bet
became a trending topic .
Liam was in a bad mood because things were getting out of his control . He dialed Hannah’s number . “ Hannah , things are getting out of hand . ”
On the other end of the line , Hannah was confused by Liam’s worry . “ Du you go soft on Aria ? ”
“ Of course not ! I’m afraid that the Saxon Group may get back at the Cole Group since it is implicated . ”
“ Relax Grandpa said that the Gibson family is on your side . ”
Liam sighed . There was little he could say because he was the real reason for the whole mess . After the call with Hannah , he went to Daniel’s study. “ Grandpa, it is getting out of control , so get prepared . ”
Daniel looked grim . He rubbed his temples to relieve his headache . “ The Cole family and the Gibson family are tied together , so we should seize the chance to take the Saxon Group down . Once it gets back to its feet , we will be its first victim , Give it another strike . ”
Frowning , Liam wanted to argue , but he caught sight of Daniel’s gray hair and wrinkles . Regret got him , so he swallowed his words .
“ Grandpa , I’ll go to the Stars Group tomorrow . You have my word that I will secure the project , ” Liam said .
Daniel nodded . “ There must be a good reason for the Stars Group to choose the cancellation of cooperation over the settlement money . The loss of our technology will displease its board directors for sure . Sound them out about Aria when you are there . This project is too important to lose . ”
“ Got you , ” Liam responded .
This was the Saxon Manor . In the depressing atmosphere , the crowd didn’t think that Aria could kill a grown man .
Aria sounded indifferent after her eyes swept over the other people in the room . “ Time’s running out . Make your choice now , or the stock price of the Saxon Group will plummet . ”
Caleb understood that it was a best and that Aria was giving the Saxon family one last chance . He firmly said , “ Aria , I will be on your side no matter what happens ”
His choice didn’t surprise Aria , but it was a pity that his preference to her contained regret and guilt .
“ Issue a statement now ! Cut all ties with Arial ” Joseph’s voice thundered through the room , Joseph would never allow anyone to jeopardize the Saxon Group .
“ No ! ” Caleb , Silvia , and their parents shouted at the same time . Trembling , Zoe stood before Aria . “ Joseph , Aria is my daughter , my flesh and blood . ”
Logan held his wife’s hand tightly . “ Dad , that isn’t the right thing to do to your family . ”
Silvia went over and held Joseph’s hand as tears streamed down her face “ Grandpa , not her fault . She
“ Sima ,” Aria interrupted . With tears in her eyes , Silvia said through her quivering lips , “ Grandpa , my real parents were bad to Aria . She is innocent .

He expression was complicated , so Caleb couldn’t help but thinki
must know something . This holat took Tina by so
Logan tiled his best to stay calm while Zoe sobbed with sadness , Caleb was expressionless but seemed decisive , and Silvia had broken down-
At the same time , the troublemaker lemained calm and indifferent as if she were an onlooker .
“ Aila , you’re nothing bait trouble ! ” Tins pursed her lips , and the look in her eyes was cold . “ The Saxon family was a loving one . You are the remion for att these arguments and conflicts ”
Instantly , Fryderyk’s face darkened. However , Fryderyk couldn’t point a finger at Tina , who was Joseph’s granddaughter .
Aria didn’t feel guilty over Tina’s accusation . “ Mr. Fletcher , shouldn’t go to the police station , given the commotion ? ”
Fryderyk hesitated for two seconds before he answered , “ You do need our protection . ”
Aria walked to the door , and Zoe quickly grabbed her arm . “ Aria , we would help you get a reduced sentence if you were a murderer , I will wait for you to come home . ”
Zoe had tears in her eyes . It was about regret and guilt . Did Zoe regret that she hadn’t taken Aria home earlier ?
Aria looked at her mother and asked , “ Whom do you prefer to be your daughter ? Silvia or me ? ” Zoe hesitated . “ … ”
Aria gave a faint smile , and her expression was calm . “ You made the choice . ”
“ Arial ” Zoe clutched Aria’s hand , her voice trembling . “ You are a bit paranoid , but I love you too . If I had brought you home earlier and disciplined you … ” “ Mrs. Saxon ” Aria interrupted Zoe and gently pulled Zoe’s hand away . “ Do you really think that the Colton couple is the cause of my personality ? ”
Her indifference hurt Zoe , and Zoe couldn’t help but shed tears .
Logan sensed that Aria was weird . He chose to side with his wife even if he wanted to improve his relationship with Aria Holding Zoe by the shoulders , he said , “ Aria , she’s your mother . ”
Aria shifted her gaze to Logan , “ Mr. Saxon , do you also think so ? ” Leaning into Logan’s embrace , Zoe wept . Logan had a complicated expression on his
face .
Both Zoe and Logan fell silent , and that was their answer . Caleb closed his eyes , and a wave of despair washed over him . His parents let Aris down
anyway
This result wasn’t surprising to Aria as she had heard someone comment that nobody would like a woman like her with her parents , relatives , friends , or lovers included .
Back then , Aria didn’t think so or feel lonely because she had friends who didn’t mind dying for her .
Now , she began to doubt herself . She turned around and walked away . “ Aria . ” There came a call , and Aria’s wrist was grabbed .
Aria looked back and saw a pair of tearful and red eyes , “ … if I leave this family , will you come back ? ”
“ Silvial ” Zoe shouted . Grief – stricken , she thought , “ I could have had a happy family . Why didn’t things go my way ? Why does Aria distance herself from us ? Why ? ”
With a faint smile , Aria raised her hand , and her palm brushed past Silvia’s soft hair , “ Silvia , you’re a good girl .
She then withdrew her hand , and her cold gazy swept over Zoe and Logan . “ You still have time to make your choice . Disown me , or accept a murderer to be your daughter ”
Aher this speech , Aria lett without hesitation .
Zoe wanted to stop Aria , but Joseph’s furious voice prevented her . “ Let her go ! Whoever tries to stop her should leave this place with her . ”
