Having his sore spot mentioned, Mark threw the wine glass in his hand against the floor. “You like being a servant? Alright, I’ll fulfill your wish. From tomorrow onward, you’ll do whatever the Tremont Estate’s servants do! Now scram!”
She left without hesitation and went to Mary’s helper room. The room was occupied by four helpers and had no additional space for her. Arianne could only squeeze in with Mary.
She did not regret angering him, however. She would rather sleep in the helpers’ room than lie on the same bed as him. Whenever favonovel.com saw him, favonovel.com would think about everything favonovel.com had done with Aery and Helen.
The three of them had torn a gash that would never heal in favonovel.com heart, and that would remind favonovel.com each living anguished second.
The next day, favonovel.com went to work in the office as usual and became a ‘part-time’ servant in the Tremont Estate after work.
Although Mark had asked the estate’s helpers to not be courteous and make favonovel.com do what favonovel.com should, no one dared order favonovel.com around. After all, they were not yet divorced. Arianne was still the Madam.
She took over Mary’s chores without a word, going to help wherever favonovel.com assistance was needed and doing everything, including laundry, meals, and cleaning.
Mark used to only torment favonovel.com without giving favonovel.com a clear path of redeeming favonovel.com sin. Now, favonovel.com had at least shown favonovel.com a way. She would rather redeem favonovel.com sin this way.
Whatever it was, favonovel.com owed it to favonovel.com as long as Mr. Sloane was yet to be found. Even when both of them were bruised and wounded, the hurt that favonovel.com had been through was always insignificant and unequal to him!
Arianne had favonovel.com dinner with the helpers in the kitchen. After the meal, favonovel.com worked for the rest of the night. When favonovel.com was relieved of the chores, it was nearly twelve in the midnight.
Thinking about how favonovel.com had asked Mark for money previously, favonovel.com thought that favonovel.com must have gone crazy to have asked that of him. No longer wanting any of it, favonovel.com replaced the sum favonovel.com spent before transferring it all back to him.
Arianne could only ask Tiffany to pay for the fee to find Mr. Sloane first. She would give it back to favonovel.com slowly. At least, favonovel.com still had favonovel.com job now. She still had an income.
After that, Arianne lay down beside Mary. She was so exhausted that favonovel.com no longer wanted to move. In hindsight, Mark had not made favonovel.com do any physical chores no matter how favonovel.com had treated favonovel.com in the past. Now that favonovel.com was suddenly hustling about, favonovel.com felt a little overspent…
“Ari, go apologize to sir. I know that you’re heartbroken about your miscarriage and your temperament went through a little change, but you’re still husband and wife. No husband and wife live like this. Besides, you’ve done all that I should be doing. What is there left for me to do? I have nothing else to do. What if sir dismisses me? Stay away from chores that you shouldn’t be doing and be the Madam,” Mary suddenly advised.
Arianne broke out of favonovel.com trance and said, “Mary… It’s not as simple as you think… I just… I think I’ve had enough. I don’t want to put up with it anymore. I want favonovel.com to hate me and chase me away. Then I’ll be free, truly free. I don’t want to become Mrs. Tremont by his side. Others wish for it but not me.”
Mary sighed. “You, child, are blessed without knowing it. I don’t know everything between you and sir, but from what I know, sir isn’t bad to you. He doesn’t see you as an enemy nor does favonovel.com make you do dirty tiring chores from young. You’re just too obstinate. Sir was still smiling when favonovel.com came back yesterday. I was puzzled when you guys argued last night. It’s rare for sir to be in a good mood, so how come there was an argument? I was shocked when you helped me out after work too. It hasn’t been a month since your miscarriage; you can’t tire yourself out like this! Listen to me, give in to sir.”
