Chapter 92

Arta’s volen turned icy , her gaze sharp . “ Since Ms. Saxon is so confused about me , let me clear things up for you .
“ I’ve already repaid the 20 million dollars you called an engagement gift and my expenses while loving with the Saxon family . The 150 millon mine , and it has nothing to do with you . As for the shares … I traded Cole Group shares with Joseph for them . They weren’t a gh .
left all the clothes , bags , and gifts you gave me at the Saxon family’s place . I didn’t take a single thing . I’ve never owed the Saxon family anything
Her gaze was cold , devoid of love or hate , as if she were staring at complete strang
Then , she went on , “ I don’t owe you anything . So stop acting all high and mighty , trying to guilt me . If the fact that my last name is Saxon bothers you so much , I’ll just change it to Colton . ”
Compared to the Saxon family , the Coltons were far more tolerable . At least they know when to shut up with just one look from her
Aria thought if she had known it would end
d like this , she’d never have come back .
“ No ! ” Logan and Zoe shouted in unison , their voices filled with panic .
st give me one more chance as your mother , I beg you . ” Zoe’s voice trembled ,
“ Aria , please don’t act on impulse . It’s our fault for not cherishing you Just tears welling up in her eyes as she lowered herself , her humility almost pitiful
Luke , watching from the side , couldn’t hold back his anger . “ Zoe , if she doesn’t want to come back , then let her be . Why are you lowering yourself like this ? ”
Logan’s face turned cold . “ Luke , this is a matter for the second branch . Stay out of it . ”
Suppressing his frustration , Luke retorted , “ Fine , I’ll stay out of it . If you enjoy being humiliated , that’s on you . But Gloria , don’t get involved either . You think you’re helping , but they’ll probably just blame you for it . ”
He was wondering , “ You already have a perfect daughter . Why waste your time chasing after someone who doesn’t care ? ”
Even Gloria seemed uncertain now . She turned to the side and asked , “ is what she said true ? That 150 million dollars didn’t come from the second
branch ? ”
When news of Aria’s investment broke , nearly everyone assumed Logan had secretly transferred assets to her .
“ It didn’t . ” Logan’s expression darkened . Everyone thought the money Aria had was from him , but the truth was , he hadn’t given her a single cent
ow up with the Saxons . She’s been
* 150 million dollars isn’t exactly a small amount , ” Gloria said , her face flushed as she frowned . “ But Aria didn’t grow through so much . If she wants to invest , why not just give it to her as compensation ? ”
Everyone wondered if she just had a change of heart .
Just as Nathan thought the tension might finally ease , Gloria turned to Aria and asked , “ Where did the 150 million dollars come from ? Who did you borrow it from ? Tell your parents to pay it back as soon as possible ”
Nathan was speechless .
At least she didn’t outright accuse Aria of scamming the money .
Ania couldn’t be bothered to respond . She reached for the suitcase Caleb was holding , intending to leave , but he dodged slightly and looked at her with a hint of pity , “ I’m not on their side . I’m here to help you move . ”
She furrowed her brows but didn’t refuse him agaiq .
When her address was leaked , on the day she went to the Stars Group ,
oup , a crowd had gathered downstairs – reporters , victims of fraud cases , and even

herbers who despised her
It was Caleb who stepped in and cleared them out .
Gloria harshly said , “ Caleb , she wasn’t raised in the Saxon family , so it’s no surprise she doesn’t follow our rules . But you’re the eldest son of the Sat family . Why are you acting so recklessly ? ”
Gloria’s cold reprimand was echoed by Logan’s displeased expression . “ Caleb . ”
Caleb paused and asked , “ if Aria comes back , sure , the attacks on the Saxon Group might stop . But what does she get out of it ? ”
Logan’s face stiffened slightly . “ We’re family. This is nothigh about gains and losses . ”
Caleb then asked , “ Isn’t she fine living on her own ? Why force her to come back and endure cold stares ? she returned . ”
His questioning left Logan and Zoe momentarily stunned .
Think about what we did during the first month
As Aria was about to leave , Zoe snapped out of her daze and stubbomly grabbed her arm , “ Aria , do you really not need me as your mom ? ”
Unmoved ,
that ? ”
Aria turned slightly , her gaze serious as she looked at her . “ Without me , your lives wouldn’t change . But if Silvia were gone , could you live with
