Love Strategy: CEO He is Really Scheming!-Chapter 148: Arlo Seys is not someone Ariel Morris is lucky to have!
Damien Morris said in a displeased, deep voice, "Who would have thought the Seys Family’s heir would not go to a noble high school, but instead attend Scenic Hill!" His plans were ruined because of it.
Scarlett Morris blamed her parents, "If I had known, I would have gone to Scenic Hill High School. It’s all because you made me go to Virtue!"
If she had gone to Scenic Hill, she could have met Arlo Seys. As perfect as she was, how could Arlo Seys spare a glance at Ariel Morris upon her arrival? Ariel was just taking advantage of the proximity! Scarlett felt uneasy.
Laura Pinley glared at her daughter, "Your father and I are in a bad mood now, can’t you be a little more considerate?"
Scarlett didn’t care, "Does Ariel Morris count as considerate? You wanted her to continue dating Arlo Seys to help the Morris Family, did she agree?"
Laura Pinley was silent for a moment, her eyes glanced sharply upstairs, saying absent-mindedly, "It turns out there’s always a distance when it’s not by blood—no matter what, she can’t be truly close."
Scarlett agreed, "Exactly, adopted is adopted. Without blood ties, of course there’s no real closeness! So many adopted sons and daughters end up treating their adoptive parents harshly when they grow up! Ariel Morris, she looks like a naive little rabbit, innocent and pure. In reality—" Scarlett paused, looked at her parents, and said, "In reality, she’s a cat who knows how to disguise herself; mark my words, she might turn on us Morris Family one day!"
Listening to their daughter’s words, Damien Morris and Laura Pinley exchanged a glance, their eyes deep and unfathomable.

Upstairs.
Ariel Morris stared blankly at the textbook, her fingers lightly brushing over the notebook. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
Suddenly, a droplet of crystal teardrop fell on the notebook, smudging the ink, blooming like an ink flower.
Ariel Morris snapped out of it, quickly wiped the crystal from her face, and looked down at her textbook.
On the pure white paper, it was filled densely with three words, and the crystal droplet was conspicuous, wetting a few of the characters.
Ariel Morris looked at the page full of unconscious scribbles, biting her lip to tightly control the urge to cry, her shoulders quivering fiercely.
On that paper, densely packed were three words—Arlo Seys.
Her fingertips caressed the paper, carrying deep affection, lingering over those words.
She looked at the three words Arlo Seys, as if through them she could see that aloof, indifferent face, whispering softly, "Arlo, this is all I can do."
The Morris Family had raised her, she couldn’t forget their kindness, couldn’t be ungrateful. Arlo was the only person she had loved, the warmest sunshine in her heart, she could never forget his kindness, everything about him. If it meant hurting Arlo, hurting the Seys Family, she couldn’t do it.
The only way was to... sacrifice this relationship.
If she and Arlo Seys broke up, her parents would have no means to exploit the Seys Family. As for her adoptive parents, what she could repay was if the Morris Clan really went bankrupt, she would give up her studies, work hard, and earn money to take care of her parents and support them for life.
This decision had been brewing in her mind for a long time, ever since she learned about Arlo Seys’ identity from her parents.
Originally, she thought there was room for reversal, but when she accidentally overheard her parents’ conversation yesterday, she realized she had to make a choice.
The sleepless night was spent solidifying her final decision, resulting in her solitary, absent-minded walk through the chilly streets this morning.
She felt so small and insignificant, she could only think of this, and only do this to make both sides a little less hurt, the only regret and what made her sad was the deep love of her youth.
The name Arlo Seys, she would never forget in this lifetime.
Such an excellent person as Arlo Seys was truly beyond Ariel Morris’s good fortune to have.
