Chapter 1275: Chapter 1283

Her internal conflict weighed heavily on her, leaving her uncertain of what to do at all.

She said, “I know he’s changed from how he used to be, but I can’t just let go of him completely.

In the meantime, I’m not naive.

I am aware that time can alter certain things, like identities, positions, and the people around him.

”

Facing Mitchel, Ariana had always been able to wear her heart on her sleeve and open up to him.

She told Mitchel everything she had been thinking about recently.

Most of the time, Mitchel remained silent, listening attentively, his emotions complex and swirling beneath the surface.

After all the twists and turns, Ariana and Theodore had met again.

It was like destiny.

Thinking about this, Mitchel felt an indescribable sense of loss.

He understood that Ariana’s heart had always held a place for Holden, and now, knowing that Holden was Theodore, it would be even more difficult for her to let go.

Although he should be feeling heartbroken, Mitchel acknowledged an unexpected sense of disappointment weighing on him.

More than anything, he felt genuinely happy for Ariana.

Having never experienced dating before, Mitchel wasn’t even sure if what he was feeling in this situation was considered normal.

After Ariana shared her thoughts, Mitchel simply looked at her and offered a reassuring smile.

“Whatever decision you make, I will always support you.

Just follow your heart.

”

Ariana returned Mitchel’s smile and said sincerely, “Even though I’ve said it many times before, I still want to express my gratitude.

Thank you.

”

Mitchel nodded and didn’t say anything further.

In the afternoon, Rodney had some matters to attend to, so he left with Mitchel accompanying him.

Soon after, Shawn arrived at the villa.

“Miss Edwards, I’m here to pick up Adele and take her to the hospital for a routine health check-up,” Shawn said.

Ariana nodded, prepared to hand Adele over to Shawn.

To her surprise, Adele clung tightly to her neck and buried her little head in her shoulder, whispering softly, “Aria, don’t go.

Aria, don’t go.

”

Touched by the child’s reluctance, Ariana felt her heart soften.

She suggested, “How about I come along with Adele to the hospital?”

“If it’s not too much trouble for you, of course you can.

” Shawn showed respect towards Ariana.

While not daring to ask too much, he didn’t need to probe to discern his boss’ attitude towards Ariana.

Moreover, in character, capability, and care for Adele, Ariana surpassed Sadie by Leaps and bounds.

Ariana smiled and responded, “No trouble at all.

I’ve got nothing else going on this afternoon.

”

After providing comfort to Adele for a while, Ariana gracefully excused herself to change into more suitable attire to accompany Adele to the hospital for the examination.

Upon arriving at Mercy Hospital, Adele obediently followed the doctor for the examination, leaving Ariana to be stationed outside to wait.

In the meantime, Ariana’s phone buzzed with an incoming call from Marge.

After exchanging pleasantries, Marge cut to the chase and said, “Ariana, do you have any free time lately? I’m working on a dating variety show.

”

After leaving the Anderson Group, Marge had taken over the variety show industry and found her footing there.

Over the past five years, Marge had carved her niche in the industry, producing several highly acclaimed variety shows.

Her behind-the-scenes influence had not gone unnoticed, earning her recognition in the field.
