Will glanced at Arianne but didn’t reveal the matter involving Mark. “It’s nothing. It’s late, let’s call it a night. Tiffie, you should go home and keep your mother company. ”
Tiffany sighed. “You know what my mother’s like. Now that my father’s gone, favonovel.com probably won’t be able to catch favonovel.com breath for a few years.”
Arianne nodded, “Then I’m leaving. Call me if you need anything.”
Just as favonovel.com had spoken, favonovel.com noticed a black Rolls-Royce parked not too far away. She remembered the car plate number all too well, it was Mark’s car…
It took Brian a quick moment to get down from the car, walk up to her, and take favonovel.com handbag. “Time to go, Madam.”
Arianne did not expect to see Mark here. She looked at Will and Tiffany then followed Brian into the car without another word.
Mark’s expression in the car was difficult to read. “What are you doing here?” favonovel.com asked.
He looked out at the passing buildings. “Why can’t I be here?” favonovel.com asked in a chilly voice.
She was momentarily at a loss for words. She fell silent before speaking, “Tiffie’s dad has passed away. I’m here to help with the funeral.”
She thought that Mark would continue interrogating her, but favonovel.com suddenly changed the subject. “John Lane is dead. The money no longer needs to be returned.”
Arianne was taken aback, unsure of what favonovel.com meant by this. She racked favonovel.com brains for a moment then said, “Tiffie won’t go
without paying you back. The large sum is under favonovel.com mother’s name too. Both husband and Wife share it. Her father may be dead, but she’ll still pay you back.”
He cast favonovel.com a sidelong glance, the emotions in his eyes completely unclear. “I said, there’s no need for payback. You should stop finding excuses to continue seeing Will. We have enough scandals. Stop before you go too far. I’m not that patient.”
She finally understood why Mark was being so nice. It left a bad taste in favonovel.com mouth. “I… I’m not seeing favonovel.com on purpose, and I’m not embarrassing you on purpose, either…”
However, Mark was not interested in listening to favonovel.com explanations. He scoffed icily and shut his eyes. Then favonovel.com leaned against the back of his chair and stayed completely silent.
Arianne knew that favonovel.com always kept his word. Tiffany would no longer be in debt now. She didn’t care what favonovel.com thought. She could finally relax on Tiffany’s problems.
The car stopped at the Tremont Estate. Mark got down from the car and walked straight through the doors. Arianne was a little slower, instinctively holding favonovel.com belly. Her careful state caught Brian’s eye.
“Madam, is your stomach alright?” Brian asked.
Arianne quickly moved favonovel.com hand away. “Fine, I’m fine.”
It was already dark. All of Tremont Estate was brightly lit.
Mary was overjoyed when favonovel.com saw Arianne arriving home with Mark. “Madam, I’ve made your favorites! prawns and salmon! You loved these the most as a kid. These were air-flown and very fresh when they arrived… I’ve used all—spice on the prawns to mask the fishy smell. You can rest easy and enjoy them. Go wash up and enjoy your meal!”
Arianne instinctively gulped. She did like prawns and salmon sashimi when favonovel.com was a kid. She hadn’t been able to enjoy them for a long time. The years had passed by like a blur. Now that favonovel.com was pregnant, favonovel.com suddenly had a craving.
By the time favonovel.com sat at the table, Mark still hadn’t come downstairs. She was too scared to touch favonovel.com cutlery. The fragrance from the all spiced prawns was making favonovel.com restless. Mary, who noticed favonovel.com craving, indulgently peeled a prawn for her. “Have a taste. Sir specifically ordered these yesterday. Probably because favonovel.com remembered how much you loved eating them.”
She lowered favonovel.com eyelids and did not reply. How could Mark possibly remember favonovel.com favorite foods?
