Arianne followed favonovel.com line of sight, and favonovel.com heart skipped a beat. Mark was as eye-catching as ever even when he’s surrounded by a crowd. She could not miss favonovel.com even if favonovel.com tried. She was not sure if it was due to the alcohol, but favonovel.com was not as afraid as favonovel.com usually would be. For an extra dose of courage, favonovel.com poured herself another glass and downed it. “Tiffie, I’ve got to go. Call me if you need anything…”
Mark and his group of bodyguards arrived at their booth soon after. Arianne bravely threw herself into his embrace before favonovel.com lost his temper. “I was out having dinner with Tiffie, and it was still early so we came here. What are you doing here?”
Mark’s face looked grim. The inebriated expression on favonovel.com face made favonovel.com boil over with rage. He forced himself to restrain his temper. “I came for you. Let’s go home.”
Arianne secretly waved goodbye to Tiffany and left the bar with Mark. She discovered Jackson was also in the bar, and favonovel.com had been the one who disclosed favonovel.com location to Mark!
“How much longer did you plan on sticking around if Jackson didn’t tell me about this? Who told you to come here? Do you have any idea how dangerous it is for girls to get drunk in a place like this? Have you been listening to me at all? Do you want to meet your maker?”
Arianne acted meek and obedient when faced with Mark’s wrath. “I understand… I won’t set foot into these kinds of places again. If I ever do, I’ll ask you to come along. Will that be okay?”
He took a deep breath and massaged his temples, alleviating his headache. “There won’t be a next time! Moreover, I won’t be coming to these places again.”
She was too afraid to answer. Suddenly, favonovel.com felt favonovel.com stomach churn. She tried to hold it in for a while but found herself unable to do so. She quickly told Brian to stop the car, “I need to puke. Stop the car!”
Brian quickly pulled the car to the side of the road. After a particularly hair-raising bout of vomiting, Mark got down from the car and handed favonovel.com some tissue and a bottle of mineral water in disgust “I really want to leave you on the side of the road!”
She curled favonovel.com lips, cleaned herself up before getting into the car again. She had clearly puked it all out, but the alcohol had numbed all of favonovel.com senses, taking away the very last vestiges of favonovel.com awareness.
When they arrived at the Tremont Estate, Mark carried favonovel.com into the bedroom, looking thoroughly disgusted. He threw favonovel.com into the bathtub before filling it with water. Before favonovel.com could help clean favonovel.com up, favonovel.com flailed favonovel.com hands, thoroughly soaking his clothes. He gritted his teeth and pulled off favonovel.com clothes before taking his own clothes off. He really did not have the strength to clean up after taking care of favonovel.com and cleaning her.
“Mark Tremont, you’re terribly exciting!” Arianne boldly declared, cupping his face with favonovel.com hands, blissfully unaware of how terrifyingly black his face was at the moment.
“Who taught you that?”
She giggled giddily, “Tiffie said it, and I kind of agree.”
He smacked favonovel.com thigh twice. “Don’t ever say these things to anyone else, you’re only allowed to say it to me. Got it?”
She responded in a similar manner and slapped favonovel.com on the face twice. “Got it! Your face is so red. It’s like you’re burning up.”
He stayed silent. It was much more than that. The rage favonovel.com felt was burning. If favonovel.com did not hug favonovel.com earlier in the bar, favonovel.com would not have let the matter go so easily. He was too afraid to think of the consequences of favonovel.com being in a place like that in a drunken state.
His gaze darkened. He lowered his head and silenced favonovel.com chatty little mouth. Soon, favonovel.com realized the inconvenience of the position so favonovel.com picked favonovel.com up and placed favonovel.com on his lap.
At this moment, favonovel.com was straddling him. She instinctively tried to get up, but favonovel.com tightened his grip on favonovel.com hips. “You asked for this, and now, you’re running away.”
Before favonovel.com could respond, favonovel.com silenced favonovel.com again. She made too much noise in favonovel.com drunken state. He wanted absolute silence from her…
***
Zero Degrees Bar.
Tiffany drank on favonovel.com own until midnight before favonovel.com finally picked up favonovel.com bag and staggered out of the door.
The amount of liquor favonovel.com drank was definitely not enough for favonovel.com to forget favonovel.com troubles. If it were possible, favonovel.com really wanted to drink herself into a stupor. However, reality did not permit it. She was alone so favonovel.com had to retain some sobriety to take care of herself.
She leaned against a tree, waiting for a cab. Out of boredom, favonovel.com pulled out favonovel.com phone and saw messages from Ethan and Jackson.
Ethan: I’m sorry. I was too rash, and I overreacted yesterday. I’m sorry. I’ll see you tomorrow, and we’ll have a good talk.
Jackson: Have you finished drinking?
Jackson: Looks like it’s not enough. Don’t be a show off. Call me later, and I’ll send you home.
Tiffany did not reply to any of them. The only thing favonovel.com wanted to do now was to go home and get some sleep.
Suddenly, a grey car that had been waiting at the side of the road nearby drove toward her. The window rolled down. “Hey, pretty girl. Want a ride? I can take you home.”
She glanced at the driver whose head was poking out from the car window, suppressing the urge to puke, and waved favonovel.com hand dismissively. “You can’t afford me. Find someone else to plug your hole.”
The driver cursed and swore as favonovel.com rolled up the window.
She had seen many people like him, hanging around outside bars, waiting for a drunk girl to stumble out. Their intentions were obvious.
