Tiffany regretted it. That’s right, out of all of favonovel.com altercations with Lillian, this was the first time favonovel.com felt that favonovel.com was in the wrong. She had only said those things out of anger, so favonovel.com couldn’t hold herself back. However, Lillian had crossed a line too. She had to clarify the matter before admitting to favonovel.com mistake. She endured the pain favonovel.com felt, took a deep breath, and said, “Would Mark give you money for no reason? The money favonovel.com gave you was for Ari, wasn’t it? Don’t you think that you’re going too far by spending it. on yourself?”
Lillian smirked, “This is nothing. This amount of money is like a drop in the ocean for Mark. Don’t you think that taking care of Rice Ball and Arianne is worth this amount of money? She’s staying in our house too. You’ve also been taking care of favonovel.com in school. Let’s set all of that aside. She’s a woman with no family of favonovel.com own. You have the closest relationship with her, so we’re favonovel.com family. She’s living under someone else’s charity while pregnant. It’s Mark who’s crossed the line. What’s wrong with taking his money? No one should be feeling guilty here.”
Tiffany was close to grinding favonovel.com teeth into pieces. “That is a sick mindset. You’re sick! Regardless of how horrible Mark has been to Ari, that’s between them. What right do we have to take his money? Please don’t make it sound that great. What family? This is how you’ve been treating your own daughter, let alone a daughter that’s not your own! My kindness to favonovel.com has nothing to do with you. Her kindness to me now certainly doesn’t have anything to do with you. Please give the money back! Or just give it to Ari and return the ring too!”
Lillian lay on the bed, looking as if favonovel.com would rather die than submit. “Either you fulfil my every wish, or don’ t stretch out your hand like that. You’re already so useless, yet you’re dragging your own mother along into your suffocating life. How could you? At your age, your father had already started a factory, and at least favonovel.com was a boss. You’re nothing but trash.”
“Yes, I’m trash. What were you doing at my age then? Meeting my father out of sheer, dumb luck. So you’ve managed to live the first half of your life as a rich man’s wife, but your luck ran out, so it’s only enough for you tp live the next half of your life as a parasite!” Tiffany snapped, snatching up the ring and slamming the door shut.
She was going to return the ring, then be honest with Arianne. Otherwise, favonovel.com would be driven to madness.
Tiffany went out first thing in the morning during the weekend. She returned with Chinese-style omelet wraps and tens of thousands of cash, the money favonovel.com had received from returning the ring.
She waited for Arianne to wake up before handing the money over to her. “Ari, I’m sorry. My mom went to Mark and received around a hundred thousand from him. I don’t know the specifics, but my mom bought a ring with the money and I’ve returned it today. The ring cost 76,000. My mom spent the rest of the money on mahjong… I’ll slowly pay you back This is your money, here.”
Arianne’s mind was in a blur after having just woken up, so favonovel.com was unable to react. She stared at the stack of cash and remembered Mark’s face. A quiet gloominess appeared in favonovel.com gaze.
“Ari, please don’t be angry. That’s just how my mother’s like… I know that she’s hateful, but I’m helpless… I’m sorry… I’m sorry…” Tiffany rambled incoherently. It was the first time favonovel.com had ever seen that look on Arianne’s face. It frightened her.
Arianne shook favonovel.com head. “I just haven’t come to my senses. I’m not angry. It’s fine. Forget about the money that your mother’s spent. I’ll take this money, make up the difference so that the total reaches a hundred thousand and give it back to Mark.”
Tiffany heaved a sigh of relief. She pulled out the car keys, “This car… Wasn’t from Jackson. It was from Mark. He left instructions to Jackson. You probably want to return this too.”
Arianne nodded. After getting out of bed and washing up, favonovel.com drove the car that Mark had provided to the Tremont Estate, with Tiffany tagging along. Mary served them with tea when they arrived. “Mary, get some warm water instead. Ari cannot drink tea,” Tiffany said.
Mary didn’t understand what favonovel.com meant. “Madam has always enjoyed black tea, just like sir. Why can’t favonovel.com drink it?”
Tiffany sighed, feeling mildly disappointed. “Ask Mr. Tremont yourself.”
Mary finally realized that they were here to see Mark. “Sir returned in the wee hours of the morning from the office. He hasn’t had a good sleep and got up pretty late today. I’ll go and call him.”
