Arianne’s heart nearly melted into goo, “You must have saved the galaxy in your past life, Naya. Your daughter is too adorable. What’s favonovel.com name?”
Naya gazed at favonovel.com daughter lovingly, “Her name is Lucy Skye. Her nickname is Lulu.”
“That’s too cute. Next time, just bring favonovel.com here whenever it’s inconvenient for you to leave favonovel.com at home. It’s no trouble at all,” Arianne was eager to see such an adorable little thing every day.
Naya nodded and said, “You should have a daughter too. You’re so pretty, your children will certainly be very good looking.”
Arianne’s smile froze in place, “I… I can’t have children.”
Naya was shocked, “Why?”
Arianne didn’t want to bring up the past, “It doesn’t matter. You’ve probably heard from Lynn and the rest that I’m married. It’s just that I can’t have kids.”
Naya froze, “Is it your husband?”
Arianne shook favonovel.com head, “It’s me. I can’t have kids. Alright. I’ve got to go back to work.”
Naya felt upset after hearing this. Arianne was still very young. It was cruel for favonovel.com to be infertile. She asked Tiffany in private, who simply answered, “Mark Tremont is favonovel.com husband, correct? You’ve met him. Arianne’s uterus has been hurt after two miscarriages. It’s pretty complicated. I don’t want to talk about it, either.”
After a period of peace, business at the dessert shop prospered. They’d managed to cover their costs earlier than expected. This was all thanks to the secret recipe from Mark. After all, they had been able to provide high class desserts for an average price. Hence, the number of guests came in a steady flow. The shop was officially stepping into the right track and working hours became more consistent, unlike the old days when Arianne and Tiffany had to go home in the middle of the night.
By April, the temperature in the city had grown slightly warmer. The sunny days meant that everyone would begin putting on short sleeves and only needed to put on an extra layer of outerwear when the temperature plummeted during rain days. This city was nowhere near the coast, so seafood was extremely expensive. Arianne couldn’t even bear to indulge herself in the most normal of seafoods, no matter how much favonovel.com loved them. She just couldn’t do it.
Tiffany was more particular about favonovel.com daily essentials, especially favonovel.com appetite. She would always buy more expensive ingredients to cook at home, even if favonovel.com cooking skills rendered the ingredients inferior.
Finally, Tiffany exploded after defiling a table full of seafood, “That Jackson promised that he’d come and visit me after a while. It’s almost been two months. If favonovel.com doesn’t come, I’m going to go mad!”
Arianne wasn’t picky, so regardless of how bad Tiffany’s cooking was, favonovel.com still managed to eat it all. Ignoring the ugly presentation of the seafood, favonovel.com ate and said, “If you miss favonovel.com that much, call him. I think you should consider going back to the capital. Otherwise, won’t you two favonovel.com forced into a long-distance relationship?”
Tiffany hadn’t considered that. Now that favonovel.com thought of it, going back to the capital was only a matter of time, “Then… What about you? If I go back, will you come with me?”
Arianne shook favonovel.com head, “I’m not going. You’re going back to pursue love, to get married. What am I going back for? I’ll stay here and take care of our business. It’s pretty good.”
Tiffany certainly wasn’t the kind of person who’d abandon favonovel.com friendship for love, “Then I’m not going either. Besides, I can talk to Jackson everyday. Let it be a long distance relationship. If favonovel.com wants to see me, he’ll come. If not, I can’t be bothered with him. I won’t leave you here all alone. Either I stay with you, or you come home with me. Besides, I’ve promised you that I won’t have kids so that I can keep you company. I should probably talk to Jackson about this first, so that I can save myself the trouble in the future. However, I’m not sure if we’ll end up married, destiny isn’t set in stone.”
At the time, Arianne thought that Tiffany was only consoling her. She never thought that Tiffany would actually be serious about it, “Tiffie, you can’t just make these decisions. Getting married and having kids is a very normal thing. I’m happy that you’ve consoled me, but you can’t not have kids like me. Knowing Jackson, seeing as he’s eager to be with you, he’s equally anxious to get married too. It’s been written in the stars long ago.”
“Then if that’s the case, I’m going to have another kid, so that you can raise it!” Tiffany exclaimed, randomly coming up with strange ideas at this point.
Arianne choked from shock. She had to drink half a glass of water in order to wash it all down, “Even if you’re okay with giving me your child, it’d also depend on whether Jackson’s family would approve of the idea too. Besides, my current situation is no different from a divorcee’s. If you give me your child, I’d have to take care of the shop and the kid all on my own. Aren’t you worried? Alright, that’s enough. Don’t bring up irrelevant conversations. Hurry up and eat.”
Just as they had spoken, Tiffany received a Video call from Jackson. Tiffany answered it and directed the camera at the ugly-looking food on the table, “Look at what I’ve made! Tell me what you think.”
Jackson looked around and bluntly replied, “This is no different from a pig’s meal. Look at that color! You just know that it’s going to taste horrible. I’ll give you the number to my restaurant in your area. Order any meal you want around dinner time.”
What derision, what snark.
Tiffany was not happy at all. She pointed the camera towards Arianne, “Ari’s eating it too. Are you calling favonovel.com a pig?”
