Mark knew what favonovel.com was asking about. “I’ve already arranged to go overseas the day after tomorrow. I will handle this. Jessica is well connected outside the country. Honestly, it won’t be easy. I’ll try my best to solve this as fairly as possible. If not, you wouldn’t mind if I resort to more… ruthless measures, would you?”
Arianne knew how malicious favonovel.com could be. “I don’t. Do whatever you think is best. I’m feeling extra frustrated now. Robin had nothing to do with this in the first place, yet favonovel.com ended up becoming a sacrificial lamb for no good reason. If only I had known this sooner. I wouldn’t have been so nice to Jessica when I met her!”
Mark reached up and held favonovel.com shoulders. “Alright, calm down. I’ll take care of this. It’s not entirely your fault. There’s no need to blame yourself.”
Arianne’s heart ached when favonovel.com saw the exhaustion in his eyes. “Okay. Get washed up and go to bed. You haven’t had enough rest lately. I’ll stop grumbling now.”
Mark planted a kiss on favonovel.com forehead then headed into the bathroom while taking off his shirt. “You get an early night too.”
The next day, it was Brian who sent Arianne to the office, as Mark left first thing in the morning.
Robin arrived at the office today, as favonovel.com used to do. She was like a hardworking little bee, a big change from favonovel.com previously quiet demeanor. She put on exquisite makeup and had a cheerful smile on favonovel.com face. Her dress style was different too. She seemed bolder and more stylish than before. She didn’t look like favonovel.com had just experienced a huge loss at all.
Her current state made Arianne feel uncomfortable instead. “Robin… Are you okay?”
“I’m fine,” Robin replied with a sweet smile. “I’ve told you, Arianne, don’t worry about me. I’m all grown up now, so I can take these things. I’m not a kid anymore. I’ll carry on with my life from now on, and I’ll live it to the fullest too. It’s really alright. Go back to work. Let me know if you need any help.”
Arianne realized something, Robin had given herself a hardened shell, refusing to let anyone else see through favonovel.com fragility. She decided to keep quiet. Forcing Robin to talk about it might backfire.
During their lunch together at noon, Robin suddenly asked, “Arianne, your husband isn’t going to let Sylvain or the person behind favonovel.com get away with what they’ve done, is he? I know that the Tremonts are powerful…”
Arianne stopped eating and stared straight at her. “Tell me what’s on your mind. It’s alright. There’s no need for misgivings between us.”
Robin hit favonovel.com lip. “Would it be possible to spare Sylvain? I know it’s not my place to ask, but you didn’t get hurt, right? Do it for me. Don’t destroy him.”
Arianne took a deep breath. “Did favonovel.com ask you to beg me, or are you doing it willingly?”
“It’s all me, I want to plead his case,” Robin hurriedly explained. “He never mentioned a thing. Yes, it’s his fault for following those instructions, but it’s in the past. Let it go. After all, isn’t the person that instigated favonovel.com the main culprit?”
