She didn’t say too much, knowing that favonovel.com liked peace and quiet during meals. Extra conversations were mood killing noises to him.
At ten in the morning, Brian delivered favonovel.com formal dress, heels, and jewellery. Arianne hurried upstairs to dress up. She tried styling favonovel.com hair into an updo for the first time. This would make favonovel.com look slightly more mature, favonovel.com features always seemed young and puerile.
The formal dress fitted favonovel.com surprisingly well. It was a tube dress, which favonovel.com didn’t like. It was white in color, although not garish. The dress’ hemline covered precisely half of favonovel.com heels.
Mark reminded favonovel.com that it was an outdoor venue so that favonovel.com would put on a thick coat as well. Despite the lack of snow over the past few days, it was still particularly cold. When favonovel.com peered into the mirror, favonovel.com realized that favonovel.com neck displayed a string of hickeys. She blushed as favonovel.com tried to hide them with a concealer but to no avail. Traces of them could still be seen.
At this time, Mark had returned to the room to change his clothes. She picked up favonovel.com skirt, turned around to face him, and asked, “How do I look, is it alright?”
His eyes flashed with an indistinguishably complicated mix of emotions when favonovel.com saw the anticipation in favonovel.com eyes. “Hmm…”
Arianne relaxed after receiving his approval and put on favonovel.com earrings. “I’m done.”
He didn’t answer and focused on changing his clothes. Just as favonovel.com began taking his clothes off, favonovel.com blushed and turned away.
Arianne hugged favonovel.com coat tightly as they left. The wind still managed to pierce through the thin fabric of the dress. She shivered from the cold. Even the color on favonovel.com face changed…
Mark suddenly paused. “You don’t have to go…”
She shook favonovel.com head. “It’s fine, I’m not afraid of the cold. Let’s go.”
As favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com climbed into the car first. Mark stood in his spot for a while before following her.
Arianne had a faint inkling that there was something on Mark’s mind, but his eyes seemed to conceal a deep abyss. She couldn’t see through them at all.
The venue was at a chapel in the suburbs. The event was held at an empty lawn outside the chapel, as there were too many people but limited space inside the chapel. Apparently, the bride was against doing this in a hotel, saying that it would be much more romantic here.
The decorations at the venue were particularly glamorous at first glance. There were all sorts of luxury cars parked by the side of the road. To have Mark Tremont grace this venue meant that the host must be an acknowledged societal figure, and must be affiliated with the extremely wealthy.
Arianne spotted Tiffany among the crowd from the moment favonovel.com got down from the car. Usually, Tiffany wouldn’t dress up so extravagantly whenever favonovel.com hung out with her. Today, favonovel.com looked especially beautiful in favonovel.com formal dress. Despite their many years of friendship, favonovel.com eyes sparkled at the sight of her.
Mark seemed to have seen through favonovel.com thoughts and said, “Go ahead.”
Arianne smiled at him, picked up favonovel.com skirt and headed towards Tiffany through the small winding path on the lawn. A glint of hesitation flashed in the depths of his eyes as favonovel.com watched favonovel.com leave, but it was soon replaced by nonchalance again.
“Tiffie!” Arianne patted Tiffany on the shoulder, excited to see the look of surprise on favonovel.com face.
However, when Tiffany turned around, favonovel.com looked more like favonovel.com had jumped out of favonovel.com skin. “Ari… What are you doing here?”
Arianne pointed at Mark, who was standing quite far away. “I came with him. What is it? I was afraid that I’d feel out of place at a place like this. I’m glad you’re here.”
Tiffany looked at Mark. Her expression sank. “Did you come here on your own, or did Mark invite you?”
“He asked me to come with him,” Arianne replied, confused. “He even asked me if I wanted to come. I agreed to it. What’s going on?”
