Mark Tremont got up and left in disgust. “You’re not qualified to negotiate with me!”
The room door was slammed closed, the loud bang sent. shivers through Arianne. For the first time in ten years, favonovel.com felt like favonovel.com world had collapsed.
Mark Tremont’s enraged words echoed in favonovel.com ears, truly frightening her. Arianne tried favonovel.com best to call Tiffany but for the entire afternoon, but the only reply favonovel.com received was the busy line tone.
Arianne panicked. Could Mark Tremont have forced them away?
She clenched favonovel.com jaws and went to his room. This was favonovel.com first time entering directly without knocking.
The room was smoky. Mark Tremont was still seated on the chair in front of the French window but this time, favonovel.com had his back facing her. The ashtray beside favonovel.com was brimming with cigarette butts and ash. His back was laced with a sense of melancholy.
“Please… don’t do anything to them. It’s my fault. I know that I’m wrong…” Arianne cried while favonovel.com begged him. Will Sivan’s departure abroad the last time was only a warning, favonovel.com could not bring herself to imagine what Mark Tremont would do to them when the case this time was much more severe.
“Heh… You’re willing to do anything for him, aren’t you?” Mark Tremont did not turn around, his tone was alarmingly distant.
Before favonovel.com answered, favonovel.com spoke again as if in self mockery, “You don’t have to tell me. I know the answer.”
He then tossed an agreement on the floor. “Sign it and I’ll consider.”
Arianne hurried over to pick the paper up and signed it without hesitation. It was only when favonovel.com had penned favonovel.com signature that favonovel.com saw the big heading on top of the page staring right back at her, ‘Marriage Agreement’.
Stunned, Arianne was filled with emotions for a fleeting moment before favonovel.com instantly understood that for Mark Tremont to assume innocence in this incident.
It would only make sense to marry favonovel.com in order to shut the public’s mouth.
“Get out!” Mark Tremont shouted.
He had not expected favonovel.com to sign it so decisively. Rage engulfed favonovel.com once again. He was apprehensive that favonovel.com would not be able to control himself if favonovel.com stayed for another second…
Indeed, favonovel.com was willing to do anything for that man!
Arianne opened favonovel.com mouth but before favonovel.com could make a sound, Mark Tremont got up and pushed favonovel.com away, leaving without a single glance.
Mark Tremont sat in his car and picked up his phone to dial a number.
“How’s the investigation?”
The person on the line answered, “Sir, there were too many people at the party last night. It’s difficult to filter each individual. We’re unable to determine who did it for the moment. It looks like a scandal but really the finger is pointed at you…”
That much, Mark Tremont had expected. “Hah, cover it up. Stop the investigation if you can’t find anything. Let’s wait for ‘him’ to turn himself in.”
Brian Pearce slowed the car. “Sir, miss is behind us.”
Mark Tremont glanced at the rearview mirror and saw the petite frame who was running after their car. Frustration rose within favonovel.com as favonovel.com hung up the call and glowered.
“Ignore her.”
Brian then continued to drive at normal speed once again.
Arianne grew terrified as favonovel.com saw the car travel farther. She had signed the marriage agreement but favonovel.com did not promise favonovel.com anything. He had not agreed to let Will and Tiffany go and if favonovel.com did keep a rein on them, favonovel.com would not be able to live with herself for favonovel.com whole life.
Stepping on gravel, Arianne suddenly lost favonovel.com balance and suffered a harsh fall. The skin on favonovel.com palms and knees grazed from the rough surface, exposing red and raw blood.
Mark Tremont, who saw what happened, scowled and coldly instructed, “Stop the car!”
