Chapter 458
Ariel went around the exhibition hall.
Eventually, she spotted the familiar faces in the distance once again.
Nancy was standing next to Jayson and smiling faintly. “Jayson, this art museum was built and designed with the finest and highest standards. I was wondering if my mom could hold her art exhibition here. I’m thinking of renting their space.”
Renowned for its fame and significance, this art museum was arguably among the best exhibition halls in Eldoria. Those who had held their art exhibitions here previously were all celebrated, distinguished artists.
Holding Sarah’s art exhibition here would help improve their family’s image and reputation.
Jayson directed his gaze to Nancy. “The Ulmer family owns this place. We’ll need to discuss this with Ms. Ulmer first.”
Nancy beamed. “Alright. Let’s try asking first.”
“I’ll ask her for you.” Jayson nodded. He didn’t see any trouble getting that done.
Matt had just snapped a photo of a painting nearby. He glanced over his shoulder at the two of them
See how much Jayson cares about you!”
Nancy smiled sweetly as she felt it too.
When she turned around, Nancy spotted Ariel and Janice, who stood not too far away.
Nancy lifted her brows and cast them a contemptuous gaze.

Janice’s face darkened since she could tell what Nancy was doing. She subconsciously stepped forward, but Ariel caught hold of her wrist.
They shouldn’t cause any trouble while attending an event hosted by the Ulmer family.
Ariel wanted to treat Nancy as if she were a complete stranger. She would pretend as though Nancy wasn’t even there as long as the latter stayed out of their way.
When they passed by each other, Jayson happened to meet Ariel’s eyes.
Coincidentally, Kristen appeared and was heading their way.
Nancy thought about what she should say.
Kristen had been quite cold to her earlier. Nancy wondered how she should persuade Kristen to agree to letting her rent the space here.
“Ms. Ulmer,” Jayson called out to Kristen. Nancy hadn’t reminded him about it, yet Jayson was already trying to help her resolve the issue.
“We heard that you would also rent the space here to outsiders. Ms. Stanton also wishes to rent this space. Can you let us know if there are any free slots available for rent?”
Jayson had stepped up to help her with this matter. Nancy raised her head and looked at him. Her eyes twinkled with joy and contentment.
Kristen glanced at Nancy. “Ms. Stanton wishes to rent our space? Are you asking for the favor on behalf of her, Mr. Larkin?”

Kristen could see what Jayson was trying to do. She pointed it out clearly as well.
Jayson probably knew that the Ulmer family wouldn’t want to let Nancy rent the art museum. So, he decided to
use his influence and resources to appeal to them.
Jayson remained calm and composed. “I owe you a huge favor if you’re willing to let her rent this place.”
Kristen’s eyes narrowed as she studied Jayson’s expression. “You’re willing to do so much for Ms. Stanton, Mr. Larkin.”
Almost everyone knew how precious and valuable Jayson’s favors were.
Nancy stood beside him. While Jayson was speaking to Kristen, Nancy couldn’t help but glance at his profile.
She was touched. At the same time, Nancy decided not to concern herself with other people’s opinions and criticisms. After all, Jayson had been extremely and unconditionally kind to her.
Nancy’s gaze drifted toward Ariel. Her mouth twisted into a smirk. So what if everyone had found out about Ariel’s status as Jayson’s wife? It only made her look even more pathetic now.
“I’m sorry, but the art museum is my personal asset. So, you can discuss those matters with me in
A woman’s voice came from a certain direction.
Nancy looked in the direction of the voice. A slim, tall figure was approaching them. She walked ste high heels.
in her
When she stopped before them, everyone saw a woman so beautiful she outshone actresses and female celebrities.
Kristen turned her eyes to Cecilia Pryce and smiled. “You’re here.” 1
Cecilia nodded. Then, she directed her gaze at Nancy. “You want to rent this space?”
Nancy had no idea who the lady was. Still, she nodded politely. “Yes. Might I know who you are, miss?”
“She’s my daughter.” Kristen explained, “The paintings that are on exhibit today are all her work.
Cecilia gave a slight nod. She looked at Jayson and Nancy. “Hello, I’m Cecilia Pryce. I’ve heard many good things about you, Mr. Larkin.”
Jayson nodded.
Cecilia glanced at Nancy next. “You’re Mr. Larkin’s girlfriend?”
