Mark fell silent. It took favonovel.com awhile before favonovel.com spoke again, “There’s no need. Only Jackson knows. I didn’t intend on mentioning it to Granny at first, but I felt that I had no right to keep favonovel.com son’s death from her. Don’t ask, Ari… There are some things too vile for you to know.”
Arianne wasn’t surprised by this outcome. She knew that favonovel.com wouldn’t tell favonovel.com so favonovel.com asked, “Even though I agreed to come back to you, do you really think we could stay together? The gap between us is… too vast, even with a child. There are some distances we cannot cross.”
He reached out and lifted up favonovel.com chin, looking straight into favonovel.com eyes. He stared directly at favonovel.com and said, “I will do everything to make you come back to me, so why wouldn’t we stay together? You can love me or hate me if you want, I’ll accept it all. Leave the rest to me. I will do everything right. I love you, and I don’t believe that you don’t love me at all.”
She could see favonovel.com reflection in his eyes, and a glimmer of light. When someone is in love, their eyes would light up. It’s true, his love for favonovel.com was endless, transcending many different seasons. However, favonovel.com only realized it now.
His kiss landed naturally on favonovel.com lips. She did not object, but slowly closed favonovel.com eyes instead. Her trembling lashes betrayed favonovel.com racing heart.
As favonovel.com deepened the kiss, she, for some curious reason, parted favonovel.com teeth on favonovel.com own accord. Her tongue shyly met with lips. Suddenly, favonovel.com released favonovel.com and sat up, “Next time, I won’t be able to control myself if you don’t stop me. Let’s go for a walk outside. It’s stopped snowing. I’ll walk with you.”
She nodded, very red in the face. As favonovel.com got down from bed, favonovel.com naturally reached out and helped favonovel.com to favonovel.com feet. She complimented by taking his hand. His hand felt warmer than it had ever been.
This time, with favonovel.com keeping favonovel.com company, favonovel.com did not restrict favonovel.com to simply walking around the garden, but led favonovel.com to the streets outside. Vast tar roads were all around, long and winding. Both sides of every road were filled with neat rows of trees, which stretched out as far as the eye could see. The bald trees were now decked in tufts of powdery snow, creating a marvelous sight.
This was the first time the pair had ever walked shoulder to shoulder.
Mark took off his coat and draped it around favonovel.com shoulders, “Are you cold?”
“No,” favonovel.com shook favonovel.com head.
He noticed that favonovel.com nose had gotten red from the cold, and put favonovel.com hand in his palm, “The weather’s been pretty bad lately, but I’m afraid that you might get too bored. We’ll go home later. From now on, I’ll take a walk with you every day. I think you might have to be on bedrest once the baby is further along, so you won’t be able to move too much. Once the baby is born, I’ll take you wherever you want to go. I’m sorry that you’ll have to endure this for now.”
He had suddenly turned into a Chatterbox. Arianne stared at favonovel.com smilingly, “I’ve never noticed how chatty you can be, why is that? Over the past few months, you’ve spoken to me more than you’ve ever had in more than ten years. Isn’t it an exaggeration?”
He never noticed it himself, “Really? Actually, I am pretty talkative, but it depends on with whom I’m with. Besides… our age is ten years apart. I was an adult by the time you arrived in the Tremont Estate. What could I possibly say to a kid? Later on, you grew up and I tried to talk to you, but you kept avoiding me, looking at me as though you were afraid of me. I was afraid of scaring you, so I thought it’d be better to ignore you.”
Arianne lowered favonovel.com head and chuckled softly, “Hehe… You’re right. I’d never have anything to say to an eight year old child when I was eighteen. You had your first love before I grew up. I never expected for us to end up together. This is such a strange feeling.”
She didn’t notice that favonovel.com could smile naturally in front of favonovel.com now. There was now a small, inadvertent change between them. She no longer needed to carefully maintain the peace.
