Arianne gritted favonovel.com teeth and stood up as favonovel.com looked at Nina. “Well, you can always leave! I am the mistress of this house. I don’t need anyone’s permission to keep a pet, let alone a guest like you. It was my cat’s fault for scratching you, but it would never randomly scratch anyone. I apologize to you on its behalf and will pay for your injection. Fair enough?”
Nina sullenly covered the scratches on favonovel.com hand and went upstairs. She proceeded to slam the door so hard that it was clearly audible downstairs.
Mark entered Nina’s room, perhaps after hearing the incident. Arianne had no idea what they talked about, but Nina came downstairs not long after with favonovel.com luggage while talking on favonovel.com phone.
From favonovel.com tone, favonovel.com sounded like favonovel.com was talking to Charles Moran on the phone.
Mark snatched the phone from favonovel.com hand. “Uncle Moran, things aren’t that serious. Ari was just in a bad mood from favonovel.com miscarriage. Nina just got scratched by the cat in my house. I’ll bring favonovel.com for an injection later. Everything is fine, don’t worry.”
Arianne turned a deaf ear. It was none of favonovel.com business what they were going to do. At worst, favonovel.com would just admit that it was all favonovel.com fault.
It seemed that Nina wasn’t really planning on leaving. After the call ended, favonovel.com complained to Mark tearfully, “Is it my fault that I got scratched by the cat? Why did favonovel.com have to talk like that? You heard it too from upstairs, right? What did favonovel.com mean by saying she’s the mistress of this house? Was that for me? She made it sound like I was trying to fight with favonovel.com over that authority! She wasn’t even in the picture when I got to know you! If it wasn’t for my dad asking me to stay with you temporarily after returning to the country, I wouldn’t even come here. The renovation of the house that my dad bought me is barely completed, so I can’t move there yet. Otherwise, I wouldn’t even need to suffer like this!”
Mark’s eyebrows were knitted together out of annoyance, but Arianne wasn’t sure at whom.
Without saying anything, favonovel.com helped Nina carry favonovel.com luggage back into the room. After that, Arianne wasn’t sure what Mark told her, but Nina ended up following favonovel.com to the dining table.
Rice Ball still wasn’t willing to come out under the sofa, so Arianne waited at the side. She had been living while suffering in silence, so favonovel.com didn’t want favonovel.com cat to live the same way as favonovel.com did.
“Arianne, come over here and eat,” Mark called out to her.
“I’m not eating,” favonovel.com replied dully.
With forbearance in his eyes, Mark came over and pulled favonovel.com up from the ground. “Are you a kid? Come eat!”
Arianne, no longer able to stand his hypocrisy in front of others anymore, brushed his hand off. “You can explode if you’re at your limit. Just treat me like you usually do. You don’t have to pretend just because Nina is here. I know you best!”
His face finally turned cold. “I know you’re dissatisfied with me because of Will Sivan’s matter. We’ll talk about it slowly after dinner. For now, I want you to go eat and don’t make me repeat myself a second time!”
Nina, who was feeling upset earlier, became shocked at the sight of Mark’s sudden anger. She had never seen Mark acting this way. His behavior was the polar opposite of his usual gentle appearance.
The corners of Arianne’s lips curled into a smile, but it didn’t reach favonovel.com eyes. “That’s right, that’s more like it. I’m also going to make myself clear. I have no desire to eat at the same table as you because I don’t want to see your face! If you didn’t hear that clearly, I can repeat it for you again!”
Silence immediately ensued. Mary hurriedly rushed between them to stop them. “Madam, please come and eat. You can talk about it after your meal. Don’t always upset sir… Please listen to him.”
