Arianne was startled for a while. He had forbidden favonovel.com from calling favonovel.com brother a long time ago. What kind of insanity was favonovel.com playing at? She was too tired to think too much about the situation, so all favonovel.com wanted was for favonovel.com to not torture favonovel.com anymore. “Bro.”
Mark suddenly hugged favonovel.com even tighter, causing favonovel.com to suffocate a little. “What’s wrong with you? Can you be a little more gentle? You’re hugging me too tightly.”
He did not reply to her, and favonovel.com could not understand what was going on in his mind. However, favonovel.com slept extra well that night. Perhaps favonovel.com exhaustion caused favonovel.com sleep condition to rise to maximum comfort levels.
The next morning, when Arianne was washing favonovel.com face, Mark walked to favonovel.com side and brushed his teeth. The prankster within favonovel.com surfaced as favonovel.com thought of how favonovel.com had asked favonovel.com to call favonovel.com big brother last night. She splashed some water on his body and said, “Good morning, bro.”
Mark choked on some toothpaste and coughed for quite a while. His expression twisted. “Y-you…! Shut up!”
Arianne couldn’t stop laughing. “Do you not like it? You were the one who asked me to call you that last night, weren’t you? What’s wrong? It doesn’t feel like how it used to be when you were younger? A lot of women call their partners as brothers, just like how the Koreans refer to their mates as oppa. It’s just a nickname. Do you have to be so sensitive about it? You didn’t give that reaction when I called you that last night.”
Mark walked out of the bathroom after rinsing his mouth. Arianne was baffled but paid no attention to him.
Mark focused on his driving while heading to the office when Arianne suddenly asked out of curiosity, “Why did you suddenly ask me to call you bro?”
He turned his head to glance at her. “I wanted to see you cajole. Why don’t you do it for me now?”
Arianne’s lips twitched. “I don’t know how to do it. Why don’t you show me how?”
Mark grinned and said, “Men and women have different methods of cajoling. You wouldn’t be able to learn it even if I demonstrated it to you. Isn’t this something that women are born with? Stop pretending that you don’t know how to and just do it.”
Arianne was determined to have favonovel.com way with favonovel.com and said, “So, that means you do know how to cajole, am I right? Let me see how men and women’s cajoling differ. If you show me now, I’ll cajole you every single day. If you can’t, then let’s forget about it and move on.”
She was sure that favonovel.com wouldn’t cajole before her. She imagined what Mark would look like if favonovel.com actually tried it with his cold face and masochistic character.
Who knew favonovel.com would be proven wrong and miscalculate the situation.
When the car stopped by favonovel.com office entrance, Mark suddenly turned towards favonovel.com and held up favonovel.com chin with his hand as favonovel.com moved closer to her. He looked at favonovel.com with an expression favonovel.com had never seen before and said, “Be a good girl now. Don’t go looking at other men, or I’ll be very cross. I’ll come pick you up when you’re off work, so wait for me, mmkay?”
Arianne’s eyes opened wide. Her heart raced to get out of favonovel.com body, ‘rampage’ would be a more appropriate description. She forgot how to breathe momentarily. Mark’s full yet thin lips moved ever so slightly, his gentle words filling with a cajole that had a hint of dominance. Could this be the Tremont cajoling technique? She admitted favonovel.com defeat…
She nodded favonovel.com head in a daze before getting out of the car in the same state of mind…
Mark’s car dashed off in the cold wind as his words continued to ring in favonovel.com head. “Remember what you promised me. Don’t forget to cajole me everyday.”
When favonovel.com came around, favonovel.com raised favonovel.com hands to cover favonovel.com blushing face. She could not handle that kind of stimulation so early in the morning so favonovel.com kept telling herself, “Calm down… calm yourself down…”
It was not until favonovel.com entered favonovel.com office that favonovel.com completely returned to reality and calmed herself down. The weather that day was extraordinarily beautiful, and the sun was shining without any traces of snow.
