Your Love Is My Weapon

Chapter 108

Seeing Arya, the man did not take the initiative to greet her. He looked at her quietly as if he was

waiting for her to ask.

The secretary whispered in Arya's ear, "That's him." All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Arya seized him up. He was thin, pale, and looked like a patient. She didn't know this person at all. She

asked tentatively, "Do we know each other?"

The man didn't answer. When Arya looked at him, he also seized up Arya. He seemed to be satisfied

with her appearance and figure. Then he said, "Do you remember the Imperial Hotel?"

Arya's heart skipped a beat. Her legs seemed to be numb that she couldn't move at all, and her palms

were covered in a cold sweat. 'How can I forget the Imperial Hotel where Estella set me up? But how

does he know it?'

Arya had a guess but didn't dare to admit it.

"I don't know what you're talking about." After that, Arya turned around and was about to leave.

The man's voice sounded behind her. "That night, I accidentally entered a room and had sex with a

stranger…"

"Stop it!" Arya snapped at the man with her body trembling.

She felt like she was about to lose her breath. She didn't want to know who the man he encountered

that night was. It was a nightmare for her.

"I know it's hard for you to accept this. I came here just to see you because I knew we had a child…"

As he spoke, he walked over to Arya and asked for a piece of paper from his secretary. He wrote down

his phone number and handed it to Arya. "This is my phone number. My name is Louis. Contact me if

you need me."

Arya did not take it.

Louis was not angry. He looked very gentle and put the paper into Arya's pocket. "I heard that our child

is sick."

"Sorry to disturb you today." After that, Louis turned around and left, glancing at Arya.

Arya battered out of her senses. She didn't know how she got back to the conference room. She

couldn't hear what the crowd said.

Her mind was filled with the man's words…

She had wanted to know who Ryan's father was. But on the other hand, she was very repulsive and

scared to know the truth.

Ryan was a present to her. But the man she met that night left an unspeakable wound to her.

All these years, she had tried to forget that night.

She found it hard to accept his involvement in her life.

Seeing that Arya was absent-minded, Orlando ended the meeting.

She looked awful. Orlando asked worriedly, "What's wrong with you?"

Arya looked at Orlando in a daze and realized that everyone in the conference room had gone.

"Who did you see just now? Why were you distracted after coming back?" Orlando asked casually.

"I saw the wrong person."

Arya got off work early because she couldn't focus on her work. She parked her car in the parking lot.

When she got out of the car, she saw Nanny Joy playing with Ryan in the park. Ryan's laughter could

be heard from afar.

Arya put on a coat. She put her hair behind her head and walked towards them.

Seeing Arya coming over, Ryan called out happily, "You are back, Arya."

Hearing this, Nanny Joy sighed and felt sorry for Arya. Her child was right beside her, but she couldn't

hear him call her mom. She must feel very sad.

Arya took the swing rope from Nanny Joy's hand and shook it gently. "Ryan, do you have a great

time?"

"Yes, Nanny Joy said I could see you coming home here. Nanny Joy didn't lie to me." Ryan's voice was

soft and sweet. Arya rubbed his hair. "Did you listen to Nanny Joy at home?"

Ryan nodded vigorously. "Yes, I'm an obedient child."

Tired of sitting on the swing, Ryan went to play something else.

Arya sat on a bench very close to him, and Nanny Joy also sat by her side. Looking at Ryan not far

away, she said to Arya, "You should tell it to him. No one will refuse his mother."

Arya clenched her hands tightly. The thought of what Ryan had said that day made her heartbroken.

She was afraid that Ryan wouldn't accept her.

Nanny Joy sighed. "Ryan is very cute. He should have a complete family."

Arya's face turned pale. It was undeniable that Nanny Joy was right.

No matter how deeply she loved Ryan, she would not be able to give him paternal love.

She also wanted to give him a complete family. But she couldn't overcome the knots in her heart. She

didn't want to live with a stranger just because of Ryan.

Maybe she was selfish.

***

Nanny Joy took good care of Ryan so that Arya could focus on her work. Arya forgot what had

happened that day as she was busy.

Selena did some research. There were many big companies joining the bidding.

A good project was naturally highly demanding. Whether one could get a share depended on his ability.

Arya couldn't take responsibility for this project alone. She came up with a roundabout way—cooperate

with another company.

She was going to choose a powerful company from bidders and cooperate with it.

"But will that company cooperate with us?" Orlando questioned.

Of course, Arya also thought of this.

"This company." Arya pointed to the XWX Group in the document and explained, "Although this

company is not small…"

"I see." Orlando continued. "You mean, although the XWX Group is strong, it's still no match for the

Jones Group. We can work with them to defeat this major opponent. Our company will get a share of it

if we succeed."

Arya's eyes flickered. That was what she meant.

Selena and Orlando both felt that this plan was feasible. It was imperative for them to convince the

XWX Group to cooperate with them.

Orlando said first, "Leave this to me. I heard that Rufus Gates of the XWX Group had a special hobby."

Rufus liked beer and skittles. Everyone in the circle knew that. "Let's start with his assistant. We should

make an appointment with him. I'll prepare what he likes then."

Selena sneered. Although Orlando didn't specify it, she knew that it was a crooked method, not a good

one.

Orlando straightened up and looked at Selena seriously. "As long as we can win the case, even a

crooked method is good. The most important thing is to win the case."

Although Selena didn't like this method, it was undeniable that Orlando was right.

"I'll wait for your good news."

Selena packed up her things and was about to get off work.

Arya couldn't do this job, so she handed it to Orlando. She got off work and was going to prepare

dinner for Ryan.

Although Orlando's investigation was secretive, someone still noticed it.

Jacob's face crumpled up when he knew K&T Inc had joined the bidding. 'I didn't find Arya was so

ambitious before. How dare her small company join the competition?!'

But when he found Arya's company was secretly investigating Rufus, he knew her plan.

Looking for a partner was indeed a good way. But she would get into trouble if she cooperated with the

XWX Group.

Rufus had been involved in some underhand business.

'Is she courting death?'

Although Arya had nothing to do with Xavier now, he felt it was necessary to inform him.

While reporting his work, Jacob said casually, "I heard that K&T Inc wants to join the bidding too."

Xavier, who was signing the document, looked up at him. He didn't get angry, nor did he interrupt

Jacob.

Jacob was confused. 'Is he willing to hear about Arya?'

Jacob was relieved and told him that Arya wanted to cooperate with the XWX Group. "Rufus did

everything illegal. If Miss Harrison gets involved, she will face some trouble…"

Suddenly, Xavier put down the document in his hand on the desk, leaned back in his chair, and stared

at Jacob. He said indifferently, "Does it have anything to do with me?"

Jacob looked wronged. 'Didn't he allow me to continue just now? Why does he change his mind now?'

"You're free, aren't you?" Xavier's face darkened.

"No." Jacob ran out of the office and forgot to close the door when he left, afraid that Xavier would vent

his anger on him.

"Wait!"

Jacob was so scared that his body was covered in cold sweats. He stammered, "Anything else?"
