Chapter: 500
“Can it be posted online again?” Ariana asked with her guilty conscience eating away at her.
“I won’t know until I talk to the editor, but either way, all my efforts to gain heat have been in vain.” She
croaked, her voice cracking slightly.
Sonia took a deep breath to settle her rising emotions. She was on the verge of having a breakdown.
Her voice climbed a few octaves as she whined on the phone, “It’s unbelievable that this kind of person
even exists. He did all of this just because he thought the was surreal. Surely he isn’t aware that
it’s normal for s to be fantastical! I have a feeling that he failed in pursuing a woman using the
lead character’s techniques, so he decided to vent out in anger.”
She was right.
Ariana gulped, but instead of confirming Sonia’s theories, she just put on a fake look of frustration. She
pretended that she didn’t know who this man was and cursed along with Sonia, “Your is a great
success, and that is undeniable to anyone who has read it. I don’t think some random report is going to
keep your book from being back online. As for that reader, he was probably so obsessed with the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfictional plot you created that he did this…”
Ariana wasn’t sure where she was going with that and didn’t know how to continue discrediting the
reader. After all, Theodore did all of this for her, which made her a part of this whole report situation.
Sweat beaded at the nape of her neck as she swallowed her words because she realized that
reprimanding him would be the same as reprimanding herself.
Sonia continued with her constant insults and curses targeted at this mysterious man, not noticing that
Ariana had suddenly become very still and very quiet. She paused her frantic pacing as a thought
occurred to her. “Anyway, why are you calling me in the middle of the night?”
Ariana didn’t dare let her tongue get the better of her, knowing that Sonia liked to gossip. She bit her
tongue for fear of accidentally revealing something that would make Sonia suspicious and lead her to
find out that Theodore was responsible for the report.
The most ridiculous part of all of this was that Theodore reported the because of words that had
unintentionally slipped from her mouth. She did not need her mouth to get her in trouble again.
“Nothing,” Ariana put on her most casual voice at the risk of sounding fake, “I just want to know if you
were asleep. Since you’re not, I’ll leave you to it.” After that, she hung up, effectively ending the
conversation before Sonia could find out more.
Sonia stared blankly at her phone and scratched her head. What was wrong with Ariana? Did she
really call her just to ask if she had gone to sleep?
Ariana sighed in relief as she hung up. She jumped as her phone vibrated in her hand. It was a friend
request from Theodore.
She accepted it in an instant and then converted his alias into Pursuer #1 after a moment of hesitation.
Glancing at the name, she found it fitting for him, which made her giggle. She didn’t stop giggling for a
while.
The two didn’t exchange any trivial conversations over the phone. Instead, they merely texted
goodnight to each other. The simple words made Ariana feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
Even though they were not under the same roof, Ariana was unprecedentedly relieved because it felt
like he was by her side at the moment. ©
The next day rolled around and Ariana woke up with a faint smile on her face. The weather had a slight
breeze that pleasantly cooled the warm atmosphere. Ariana sighed dreamily from her love bubble. She

was in love after all. She combed her hair into a sleek high ponytail, displaying her delicate face and
rosy cheeks to the world.
She slipped on a pink woolen skirt with an apple-shaped collar, which complimented her figure, making
her look adorable and elegant. ©
She went to the company with a bounce in her step and a smile that never seemed to fade. However,
that all changed when she walked into the company doors. Her bright mood dimmed significantly and
her smile was immediately wiped off her face.
Ariana frowned and looked around. Something with wrong. ©
Normally, the company was bustling with colleagues who were too busy to notice anyone they didn’t
know. Only in the presence of acquaintances would they pause for a few seconds to utter a greeting,
However, that was not the case today. The moment Ariana entered the company, she felt dozens of
eyes tracking her every move. Everyone was staring at her, and not just the people who knew her, but
everyone. She wasn’t sure if she was imagining it, but she could have sworm that some of the stares
were tinged with sympathy.
