When they entered the office, Mark immediately got back to his work while Arianne took off favonovel.com shoes and sat on the couch, flipping through a fashion magazine. Occasionally, favonovel.com would peek at Mark to study his expression. She could tell favonovel.com was still angry. Although it was not a pleasant expression, at least favonovel.com was not going to explode in anger. However, his angry gaze still made favonovel.com uncomfortable.
Arianne finally felt slightly more carefree when Mark left to attend one of his meetings. She video called Tiffany on favonovel.com phone and said, “Tiffany, you wouldn’t believe what just happened. I’m so glad I’m alive and able to talk to you!”
Tiffany was in the office. Her gossip radar activated immediately as soon as favonovel.com heard Arianne’s words. She snuck to the stairwell away from prying eyes and ears. “What’s going on here? Who would dare to put their hands on you? Is it Mark?”
Arianne nodded favonovel.com head fiercely. “Will came to my office earlier in the morning. He asked for your number and asked me out for lunch as well. Who knew his wife would be waiting for me at the entrance of my office when I returned. She knows about my past with Will and rushed up to curse at me as soon as Will left. She caused such a big commotion that I’m currently the topic of everyone’s discussion. Not only that, but favonovel.com even went to Mark’s office to complain. Needless to say, Mark instantly came to my office. Anyway, I’m in Mark’s office now. I had such a scare today.”
Tiffany was shocked. “Did I hear wrongly? Will‘s wife cursed at you for having lunch with Will? Who gave favonovel.com the right to do that? Isn’t it just a meal? Did you retaliate? If I were there, I’d definitely give it to her. Even if you and Will aren’t together, can’t both of you be friends? You were made to sever all ties with Will because of Mark previously. What’s wrong with having a meal? How ridiculous! Did Mark do anything to you?”
Arianne nodded in agreement. “No. He was just about to blow his top, but I managed to explain everything to favonovel.com clearly so I’m fine for now. However, I have no idea when and if favonovel.com will blow up later. This incident is like a landmine. It’s fine if no one touches it, but as soon as it’s touched, it would explode. I didn’t really argue with Will’s wife. There’s no need for that. She doesn’t have any shame, but I do. Why should I humiliate myself by making a scene in public? It doesn’t matter if I’m single, but everyone knows I’m Mrs. Tremont now. Mark’s reputation is much more important. Anyway, I really didn’t expect Will to marry such a woman.”
Tiffany said, “Well, speaking from Will’s perspective, it doesn’t matter who favonovel.com marries if favonovel.com can’t marry the one favonovel.com loves anyway. His happiness isn’t important as long as the other person is happy. Isn’t his marriage arranged by his family? That woman really doesn’t deserve him. Anyway, forget it. They’re married and even have a child together. What a pity! I suppose the meaning of his life is to maintain his relationship with his wife for your sake.”
Arianne fell silent for a few seconds before favonovel.com finally replied, “I really don’t wish to see favonovel.com suffering for the rest of his life because of me. I’m already in love with someone else, and I’m happy with my life now. His situation makes me look heartless. It’s always better to have an open mind and to look to the future. Let the past go with the wind. What’s the use of holding onto the past so tightly? It would only make things more difficult. If favonovel.com contacts you again, you should talk to favonovel.com about it. There are some words that I can’t say to him. Anyway, you should get back to work. Bye for now.”
After the video feed disconnected, Arianne sighed. She was confused. She felt as though favonovel.com had wronged Will by letting go of the love favonovel.com had shown favonovel.com all these years. However, Mark had also loved favonovel.com all this time, silently protecting favonovel.com for the past ten years…

When Tiffany heard that Arianne had been cursed at, it, naturally, did not sit well with her. She called Will immediately.
After Will had heard about the incident, favonovel.com was furious. He wanted to question his wife for favonovel.com actions and even thought about ending their unhappy marriage. However, when favonovel.com saw Pumpkin playing by herself in the corner, favonovel.com could not bring himself to act. He should not have met up with Arianne in the first place. This was all due to his selfishness. After running into Arianne in the shopping mall, favonovel.com had been having sleepless nights.
Such was life. People would deny their fates in the beginning, but in the end, they still had no choice but to accept it.
