As soon as she sat down, Theodore tossed her a blanket. “Don’t catch a cold. You will infect me. I can’t
afford to fall sick again after barely escaping death.”
Ariana growled inwardly as she wrapped herself like a burrito with the blanket. She hadn’t seen this
man for a few days, and he was still so sharp-tongued.
“You plan to manage Sarah despite everything she has ongoing?” Theodore suddenly asked.
Ariana was stunned. But when she saw that Horace was behind the wheel, it all clicked.
She lowered her head and rubbed her chin against the blanket. In a dispirited mood, she finally replied,
“I have no choice. Besides, Sarah is a victim. Her ex-husband set her up. I want to help her the best
way I can.” “What makes you so sure that she’s telling the truth? Did she show you any proof? She
could be lying for all we know,” Theodore commented with a chuckle.
“What do you mean?” Ariana stilled for a second. She looked up at him, her eyes narrowing with

Theodore held out his phone to her. “See for yourself.”
“What is it?” Puzzled, Ariana took the phone over. The first thing she saw was a picture of a paternity
test report.
“That’s the paternity test result of Sarah’s daughter and Lynch. It says that Lynch isn’t the little girl’s
father,” Theodore said flatly.
“What? Is this real?” Ariana couldn’t believe it She enlarged the photo quickly. If this report was real, it
would be the last nail in the coffin for Sarah. There was no coming back if the media got a hold of this
report.
“Of course, it’s real! I got it from the hospital. It appears Lynch had the test conducted over a year ago.
Since he hasn’t released it to the media yet, he’s definitely holding it as a trump card. Sarah won’t be
able to ride out the storm if this gets out.” Theodore turned to look at the Befuddled Ariana and
continued, “It appears Sarah is just using you. She wasn’t a hundred percent honest with you.
Everyone has cut all ties with her. But what did you do? You decided to step in hoping to save her. I
hope you now see that it was a wrong move.”
An eerie sound was ringing in Ariana’s ears. She wasn’t sure of what to believe now.
Sarah’s sad face appeared in her mind. She remembered how angry the pop star had been. Every
word that Sarah said sounded so sincere.
Were they all lies? If so, why did Sarah lie to her?
Theodore’s heart sang when he saw the frustrated look on her face. He moved closer and tipped her
chin up with his fingers. “Give it up, Ariana. This matter is beyond you. You and I know that you need
my help. If you beg me, I can consider arranging a new artist for you.”
Ariana blinked her eyes several times. “I should beg you?”
“Yes, beg me.” With a snicker, Theodore leaned forward, closing the small distance between them.

Those conceited words annoyed Ariana greatly. She struggled to break free from his hold. Suddenly,
the car jerked, jolting her toward him. Her Ips pressed against his. The softness of his lips caught her
off guard.
A muffled groan escaped from Theodore’s mouth.
Ariana’s brain seemed to stop functioning. Her widened eyes were so close to his that she could see
her reflection in them.
Many seconds passed before Ariana finally came to her senses. She realized she was supporting
herself with her hand on Theodore’s crotch!
Time seemed to have stopped while the awkward kiss lasted. A deafening silence fell in the car as
soon as it began moving again. Ariana pulled away from Theodore and rubbed her lips with the back of
her hand. Her cheeks turned red in a split second.
