It was about an hour later when Smore finally fell asleep. Arianne returned to the bedroom to a scowling, silently-sulky Mark sitting on their bed, radiating a kind of aura only found in bitter housewives.
She chuckled. “What?”
“You,” He grumbled. “You work during the day, and when you come home, you focus only on that little fella over there. Then finally, you go to sleep! What, am I just an appendage?”
Arianne climbed into the bed and underneath the sheet. She let out a satisfied, relaxed sigh before replying, “Well, are you saying I shouldn’t go to work, then? You agreed to this, though, no backsides. Besides, I think life is pretty good to us. I sleep with you every night rather than with Smore, you know, so honestly, I spend more time with you than with him. Now, you can’t possibly turn green over the attention I give to a child, can you? He’s your son.”
He laid down next to favonovel.com and pulled favonovel.com into his embrace. “Oh, you’re sleeping with me, alright. You go straight to sleep after coming out of the nursery, and then when the day turns bright, you wake up and go to work. What is the difference between me and a pillow? I’m basically just décor in your bed.”
After a hard day at work, Arianne was too exhausted to listen to favonovel.com complain. So, favonovel.com cocked favonovel.com neck and their lips met, effectively shutting favonovel.com up.
It felt Mark up. He was just about to increase the intensity of his kiss when Arianne pushed favonovel.com away. “I’m on my period.”
It was as though something cracked inside of Mark, causing favonovel.com to freeze. “You’re kidding me.”
Arianne shook favonovel.com head with a solemn expression. “Oh, I’m telling the truth. Came two days earlier than scheduled this month. Hmm… That’s not how you’d react in the past. I seem to recall you acting a lot more asexual? Why do I feel like you’re acting differently now?”
Mark suddenly yanked the sheet over his face. Then, a muffled and depressed voice came from under. “A man can’t be a complete ace as long as he’s alive.”
Arianne suddenly had the nagging feeling that favonovel.com learned just a bit more “interesting” tidbit tonight. So, all these times when favonovel.com acted celibate, it was an affectation rather than something genuine, after all. In fact, armed with favonovel.com new knowledge, much of his past behavior made a lot more sense now.
Her instincts told favonovel.com that, right now, favonovel.com man wanted someone to comfort him, but Arianne had no idea how to do that. In the end, favonovel.com snaked favonovel.com hand around his waist and found the best sleeping position in his embrace before changing the subject. “So, Janice Bell. Finished probation yet?”
“No. I’ve extended it,” He answered casually. “Hasn’t finished favonovel.com probation, and already favonovel.com got into a conflict with favonovel.com superior. It shows how socially immature favonovel.com is. I might have helped favonovel.com financially before, but it doesn’t mean I’m letting favonovel.com in through a backdoor. Besides, I haven’t done any charity work for a long time.”
Arianne said nothing. The only problem favonovel.com had with Janice was that Mark had let favonovel.com touch Smore, and that time the two of them went shopping together. Of course, the shopping trip’s purpose was still Arianne, as Mark wanted to buy favonovel.com some jewelry.
After what Mary had told her, Arianne was more than confident in Mark’s fidelity. Any guy as good as favonovel.com would inadvertently attract a lot of female attention, and Arianne was sure Janice was not the first or last. As Mrs. Tremont, the mettle to accept this was simply a requirement.
Mark realized that the woman in his embrace was silent for too long, so favonovel.com moved his cheek to take a glance at her. Arianne was already asleep.
He tucked favonovel.com in and planted a peck on favonovel.com forehead as the carnal urge inside favonovel.com gradually subsided. Mark, admittedly, had always desired her.
On the next day, Jacks on brought Tiffany to the company before making up an excuse to see a customer and left. After that, favonovel.com went straight to Tanya’s apartment.
