Scarlett let out a cold laugh, looking at Ariel with sarcasm, "Eight years ago, you threatened your parents with a wrist-slashing suicide to get them to send you abroad. Why are you back now, entangling with Arlo Seys?"
Outside the door, Arlo Seys, who had just arrived at the lounge to find Ariel, stopped in his tracks. All the blood in his body seemed to freeze, causing him to shiver.
