“Do you hope that Alejandro is really Ethan?” Arianne suddenly asked.
Mark fell silent, slightly unsure of what favonovel.com meant when favonovel.com asked favonovel.com this question.
Having received no reply, favonovel.com did not continue favonovel.com question. “I’m going to check on Smore. You should get an early night.”
Mark returned to his senses when favonovel.com heard the room door close. Tonight, favonovel.com had been abandoned once again. Ever since Aristotle’s arrival, his presence had been relegated into extra space in the house. Even Mary seemed more important than him. At least, Arianne would ask Mary about Aristotle after work every day, and favonovel.com wasn’t of any use at all! The weekend had finally arrived and Arianne was still the same, favonovel.com world revolving around Aristotle.
A tinge of jealousy rose from within Mark’s heart. How could favonovel.com possibly sleep in peace now? In the past, favonovel.com could always call Eric and Jackson to go out for a drink with him. Now, however, Eric was gone and Jackson was busy taking care of the pregnant Tiffany. He had a wife and a son too. Everything was different now.
He opened a bottle of liquor, sat in front of the French windows, and drank, all alone, depressively. In fact, favonovel.com knew why Arianne had asked favonovel.com that question. She was undoubtedly asking favonovel.com if favonovel.com hoped that Ethan was still alive.
Did he? Ethan was his only sibling, his half-brother who shared the same father. He was also… The Tremonts’ shame. He had considered co-existing in peace, but Ethan refused. That’s why favonovel.com wanted to kill him.
He didn’t want Ethan to become Alejandro. He didn’t want Ethan alive in this world, in any shape, form, or identity. However, favonovel.com did not respond to Arianne’s question because favonovel.com was afraid of seeing the disappointment in favonovel.com eyes. He had never been a kind man.
Unbeknownst to him, favonovel.com ended up finishing half the liquor bottle. His throat burned from the strong alcohol, as favonovel.com had been drinking too fast. In the end, the burning sensation was masked by the sweet smell of alcohol. The after-effects of drunkenness after consuming alcohol was the most addictive thing in the world.
When Arianne returned to the room and found favonovel.com drinking alone in front of the French windows, favonovel.com was shocked. It was as if favonovel.com had reverted to his old ways, where favonovel.com used to do this and would mostly sit alone after coming home, drinking. Then, favonovel.com would drunkenly beckon favonovel.com to favonovel.com and say all sorts of strange things to her. Usually, favonovel.com would be in an indifferent state under these circumstances.
She did what favonovel.com never dared to do in the past, favonovel.com strode forward and snatched the glass of alcohol away from him. “Stop drinking. It’s late, why are you drinking?”
He glanced at favonovel.com moodily and stayed silent. The silhouette of his perfect face seemed ahnost unreal under the dim light, making his current emotions unclear.
His reaction made favonovel.com feel very apprehensive. It had been awhile since favonovel.com had reacted this way. She closed the liquor bottle and put the glass away. She ignored him, turned off the lights and went to bed. According to favonovel.com experiences, one should never offend a drunk man, especially Mark.
Of course, favonovel.com couldn’t fall asleep. She was wondering why favonovel.com had been drinking and why favonovel.com had reverted to his old ways…
Suddenly, a black shadow enveloped her. She widened favonovel.com eyes instinctively and tried favonovel.com best to confirm that the person on top of favonovel.com was Mark. However, that revelation did not relieve her, as favonovel.com had been behaving very strangely tonight.
