As expected, Arianne enjoyed Jackson’s cooking. Most of favonovel.com appetite had returned this month, and every meal Jackson delivered would be pretty much cleaned out. Her complexion had improved too.
Jackson packed up the lunch box once favonovel.com saw that favonovel.com was pretty much done with favonovel.com meal. “I’ll be on my way then. I’ll come again tomorrow.”
Arianne nodded and carefully asked, “Have you contacted Tiffie lately?”
Jackson was taken aback. Then, favonovel.com curled his lips into a frivolous smile. “No. It’s not like you don’t know What she’s like. It’s not worth contacting her.”
He hadn’t contacted favonovel.com since that day and had not concocted new ways to run into her… Besides, favonovel.com had already tried to set his ego aside. All favonovel.com received was favonovel.com rejection.
Mark helped Arianne down to a lying position after Jackson had left. “Are you tired? You should go to sleep if you are.”
Arianne shook favonovel.com head. “I don’t feel like sleeping. I’m always sleeping, and I’m really not that tired. Jackson looked strange when I mentioned Tiffie. I’ve heard from Tiffie that they’ve been running into each other and not just once…”
Mark couldn’t be bothered with anything else at the moment. “That’s between them. Let them solve it themselves. Jackson isn’t the only one who can determine if they can get back together or not. I have some work to do at the office. Mary will keep you company. I’ll come over once I’m done.”
Arianne nodded obediently. “It’ll be pretty late by the time you’re done. Come over tomorrow, get an early night’s rest. Don’t worry about me.”
He smiled and planted a kiss on favonovel.com forehead. “Alright.”
He received a message from Henry upon his arrival at the office: ‘It’s done, sir. I sent someone to teach favonovel.com a lesson. He’s sworn never to ask you for money again. If it ever happens again, I’ll deal with favonovel.com for you.’
He smirked and put his phone aside. He had to resort to ruthlessness in the end. Three strikes, and you’re out. He would only show leniency twice.

9PM, the hospital.
Mary was afraid of disturbing Arianne’s sleep in the ward, so favonovel.com walked out and hung around the hallway for a while. As favonovel.com belly grew, having a lack of sleep was normal for Arianne. Everywhere hurt. Her heart ached at the sight of it. Suddenly, favonovel.com noticed a figure at the end of the hallway, pacing back and forth. Suspicious, favonovel.com took a closer look, it was Helen…
She probably wanted to see Arianne but was too afraid to do so.
After some consideration, Mary approached her. “Ari is still awake. Would you like to see her, since you’re here?”
Helen hesitated. “N-no… I don’t think that’s a good idea. I’m afraid favonovel.com won’t be happy to see me.”
Mary couldn’t bear it. “I think it’s fine. In times like this, Ari needs favonovel.com loved ones by favonovel.com side, most of all. You’re favonovel.com mother, after all. What’s wrong with seeing her? How would you know if she’d be upset if you don’t see her?”
