Mark did not say anything, but seeing the insistence in his eyes, Arianne did not push it.
On the way to the hospital, favonovel.com could not help asking, “How many brothers are there in Eric’s family? Why have they gotten to this stage?”
Mark tugged at his tie. “One elder sister and two elder brothers. He’s a late comer to the family… from his father’s third wife. He has a different mother from his elder siblings. It’s complicated. His old man doesn’t really regard favonovel.com highly. It’s honestly not Eric’s fault. If it were me, I would have done much worse than favonovel.com had.”
Arianne also thought that things would not stop here if it were Mark.
Arriving at the hospital, the doctor picked out the pricks in Arianne’s palm. When favonovel.com saw favonovel.com bloodied palm, favonovel.com realized how hard favonovel.com must have gone just now. After having favonovel.com palm treated and bandaged, Mark wore a frown while looking at favonovel.com hand. “Don’t go back to the office later. I’ll send you home. ”
Arianne was reluctant. “I’m fine. I still have unfinished tasks and I need to work overtime tonight. How can I not go back to work? The wound won’t affect my work.”
Mark ignored favonovel.com opinion and dragged favonovel.com into the car to send favonovel.com to the Tremont Estate. She had thought about going back t o the office after Mark left but favonovel.com was not planning to head out. Although favonovel.com was occupied with work in front of his laptop, Arianne dared not escape under his nose.
It was already three in the afternoon when Nina came out of favonovel.com bedroom with a yawn. “Why are you guys home so early?”
Arianne looked begrudging with Rice Ball in favonovel.com arms. “I didn’t want to… Something happened in the office.”
Nina nodded and got changed. “I’m going to see how my house is. I’ll probably be moving out in two days. Arianne, come hang out with me when you’re free. I plan to stay here for one year; it’s pretty boring being alone.”
Arianne had not liked favonovel.com in the beginning, but favonovel.com now felt a little heavyhearted. “You’re leaving so fast? Why don’t you stay for a few more days?”
Nina smirked. “Aren’t you scared of me fighting over someone with you? It’s fine. It’s pretty nice to stay alone. I’m heading out.”
As Nina left, Arianne felt even more bored at home. Mark was engrossed with work. She had nothing to do other than petting the cat. When favonovel.com sighed for the umpteenth time, Mark quietly took out earplugs and put them in his ears. She had an impulse to run to favonovel.com and shout at him, but favonovel.com lacked the courage to do so.
Around five in the evening, Mark finally shut his laptop and stood up to move around. “Eric and Jackson are coming over tonight. Ask Mary to prepare more dishes.”
Looking around and making sure that there was no one else, Arianne realized that favonovel.com was speaking to her. She strolled to the kitchen to find Mary. “We’re having guests tonight. Make extra dishes, Mary.”
“Who is it? Sir doesn’t usually have guests. We rarely welcome anyone at home,” asked Mary.
“Eric and Jackson,” Arianne answered listlessly. Rice Ball, who was in favonovel.com arms, mirrored favonovel.com by following with a yawn.
Eric did not work overtime that day; favonovel.com arrived at the Tremont Estate with Jackson around six in the evening. Nina had informed home that favonovel.com was not coming back for dinner, so there were only the four of them at the dining table.
Eric had a wound on his head and a bruise on his face. His usual suave tone now looked a little amusing. Jackson had been laughing at favonovel.com from when they were on the way here and was still laughing when they were seated at the dining table. “I’m really impressed. Your second elder brother is what, ten years or so older than you? And favonovel.com managed to beat you up to this state?”
Eric looked dead. “Can you stop laughing? I really regret not practicing martial arts from a young age like you. I’ll just take you along when I fight next time.”
