Arianne was worried, telling her, “Tiffie, be honest with me. How are things between you and Jackson? You can’t give up just for the sake of money. It’s fine if you really like each other and plan on getting married, but if you’re just playing around for the sake of money or clothes or cars, don’t do it. I’m afraid you might end up suffering. I know I’m not overthinking it, no man would bring you lunch and a car for no good reason!”
Tiffany was going stir-crazy. She was afraid to reveal that Mark had found out about favonovel.com pregnancy, and certainly didn’t want to reveal that it was Mark who gave favonovel.com this car. Furthermore, favonovel.com suspected that Lillian was the one behind all of this… She was afraid that favonovel.com might not be able to keep up the Charade if Arianne asked any more questions. She wasn’t a girl who could keep secrets, so why did they have to put favonovel.com in this position?
“It’s really not what you think, Ari,” favonovel.com replied nervously, “Stop asking.”
Arianne was under the impression that favonovel.com didn’t want to talk about it. After all, it was a personal question, so favonovel.com didn’t ask any more, “Alright, I’ll stop questioning you. You’re not a kid anymore, you know what to do. Just know, I’ll always be here for you, so if you need anything, just tell me.”
Tiffany was very close to tears. This clearly wasn’t any of favonovel.com business… She had nothing to do with this… It was suffocating for her, to be squashed in the middle like this!
Lillian finally returned home at twelve in the morning, after many rounds of mahjong. She thought that Tiffany had long gone to bed, so favonovel.com did not plan on turning on the lights. To favonovel.com surprise, the lights turned on by themselves. She jumped in fright, lifting favonovel.com gaze and finding Tiffany standing at favonovel.com bedroom door, staring at her.
“What are you doing? Why are you trying to scare me to death in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?” Lillian asked, acting self-righteous.
“Get your a*s in here,” Tiffany was extremely tired at this point. She was furious, so favonovel.com choice of words left much to be desired.
Lillian realized that something wasn’t right. She purposefully dawdled around, showering before going into favonovel.com room, “Speak up if you have something to say. I’m old and should be sleeping early.”
‘Old and sleeping early?’
This sounded like a joke to Tiffany. “If you don’t mind, old fart, please take a look at the time. Is this your definition of sleeping early, old bag? I have a question, did you pay Mark Tremont a visit?”
Lillian sat in front of favonovel.com vanity mirror, stroking favonovel.com expensive skincare product while looking extremely calm, “No.”
Tiffany pulled out the ring. “This ring should be worth at least five figures, right? If it’s not worth eighty to ninety thousand, it should be worth at least fifty to sixty thousand. Where did you get the money for this? Don’t deny it. We sold off a lot of your expensive jewelry when we were in a bad financial condition and dad had to be treated for his illness. We weren’t left with many valuables. I remember very clearly, so this ring is definitely new.”
Lillian stopped trying to hide it, “Yes, I went to see Mark Tremont. I bought this ring with the money favonovel.com gave me. Why? You won’t give me money, yet you’re not happy that I’ve found a way to earn money for myself? As you’ve said, my old jewelry was all sold off. Who was it for? For this family, for your father. You have no right to scold me.”
Tiffany laughed in spite of favonovel.com rage, “Then how did you get those jewels? Didn’t dad buy them for you? The family was in trouble, dad was sick. Of course we had to sell off anything that was worth something to us. Shouldn’t we have done that? You’re acting as if the whole world owes you something. Why not take advantage of your youthful-looking face with barely any wrinkles and find a new home!”
Slap!
A distinct slap hit Tiffany right across the face. Lillian glared at favonovel.com with tears in favonovel.com eyes, “How dare you! I love money, I love everything that most women love, but I loved your father too. I refuse to marry anyone else, even though he’s gone. How dare you say such things? What kind of a person do you think I am? You are no daughter of mine! Yes, I took Mark’s money. So what?”
