Arianne’s voice quivered as favonovel.com spoke, but speaking to this point, there was no turning back. She had to win this time, favonovel.com would not give in first!
“Mm… not bad…” Mark was not being humble but favonovel.com pondered. Something did not seem right…
Arianne swallowed. “Uh… isn’t Nina leaving one of these days? When is favonovel.com leaving? Let’s treat favonovel.com to a meal. She’s a girl, ask someone to help favonovel.com with the moving.”
Successfully having his attention diverted, Mark replied, “I know. I’ll go to Jackson and Eric later. I won’t be home for dinner. Rest earlier after your meal.”
When the car arrived at the Tremont Estate’s gate, Arianne got off the vehicle shakily, feeling favonovel.com legs wobbling. Mark did not go in, having Brian drive to Jackson’s at the White Waters Bay. He suddenly asked, “Brian, was favonovel.com picking a fight with me just now?”
Brian swallowed. “I guess… I guess so… Actually, I agree with favonovel.com that you’re at fault. It’s not an issue for favonovel.com to throw a tantrum…”
Mark wore a meaningful smile. “It’s not an issue indeed… I like it, it should have happened a long time ago.”
Yeah, this was how things should be. In the past, favonovel.com was always quiet and cautious no matter when and what it was, like an unconditionally obedient child. They had nothing to talk about when they met. It had always felt oppressive and boring. Her sudden change felt like seasoning to his otherwise bland life, as if the black and white of his world was finally colored.
When Mark arrived at the White Waters Bay, Eric was already there.
Jackson was in one of his rare good moods today and went to cook personally. Out of the three of them, Jackson was the one with the most hobbies. Putting it simply, favonovel.com was both intellectual and sporty, looked good on the outside and well-mannered on the inside. Domestically, favonovel.com could cook, and career-wise, favonovel.com was also a business powerhouse. In spite of this, it was incredibly rare to be able to get a taste of his homemade meals.
Mark and Eric noticed a strange vibe right when they entered his house. There seemed to be someone else in Jackson’s house, as there was a pair of women’s shoes in the entryway. It was a pair of white canvas shoes, too, to boot. They knew Jackson well enough to know what type of women favonovel.com liked. It should be hotties in high heels, so the pair of canvas shoes looked out of place to both men. Since when did Jackson change his taste?
Out of the blue, a woman’s voice came from the kitchen. “What? This is wrong, that’s also wrong. I told you that I don’t know how to cook, yet you asked me to help you anyway. I’ll just end up poisoning you!”
The voice… Mark and Eric looked at each other. It was someone they were familiar with. Tiffany!
Eric closed the door in feigned indifference and rubbed his hands together. “I better forget the passcode to his house. It’d be awkward if I come over and encounter something I shouldn’t. He didn’t used to take women home…”
Mark was uninterested in gossip like this. He was merely a little surprised.
Hearing the noise, Jackson stepped out of the kitchen. “You guys are here? Have a seat first. I’m preparing the ingredients so I can cook them right away later.”
Eric clicked his tongue. “Don’t go for the ones in our friend group. Why did you specifically pick her?”
Jackson was puzzled. “What are you talking about?”
Eric pointed at the kitchen, hitting Jackson with realization. “What are you talking about? She’s my employee and works as a part-time cleaner in my house after work. You guys know this too, but I’m staying alone and I need to prevent this place from becoming messy… Help your own people first rather than outsiders, y’know?”
