Arianne could feel that Robin was serious about Sylvain. “Don’t worry. I know what to do. But do you know who instigated Sylvain? Do you know how they’re connected to Sylvain? Think about it, Sylvain doesn’t need money or fame. What could possibly motivate favonovel.com into selling himself out? You’re still too naïve. I don’t want to sully your ears with such filth, but it’s the truth.”
Robin’s eyes flashed with a sense of disbelief and curiosity. “What… do you know? Tell me. I can take it.”
After a bout of hesitation, Arianne told favonovel.com everything that favonovel.com had found out. “Before favonovel.com came to work with us, favonovel.com worked for Jessica’s overseas company. He was also favonovel.com exclusive designer. She doesn’t know much about fashion design, but favonovel.com is passionate about the industry. He gained most of his success from favonovel.com ‘patronage’. That’s how everything went smoothly for him. Jessica has a grudge against Mark, and she’s retaliating. Her personal life is known for its scandals. She has had inappropriate relationships with many of the male employees in favonovel.com company. You can probably figure out if anything happened between favonovel.com and Sylvain. The villa that Sylvain stayed in during his stint in this country? That was a gift from Jessica.”
All of this clearly exceeded Robin’s expectations. Her face gradually drained of color. “ So you’re saying that… Sylvain and Jessica?”
Arianne nodded. “They’re from the same circles. It’s too easy to find that out. I don’t slander willfully. I won’t make claims without confirming the facts. Actually, Sylvain may seem like he’s infinitely well-off on the surface, but there’s nothing enviable about him. He is worlds away from a pure and innocent girl like you. I would never have let favonovel.com near you if I had known all of this sooner. Some people cannot be judged from the surface. They may seem beautiful, but deep down, they’re filthy to the core.”
The truth was a huge blow to Robin. She remained speechless for a long time. The dishes on the table lost their warmth and had gone cold. They were now difficult to swallow.
Arianne sighed. “Robin, it’s fine. You’re an amazing girl. You’ll definitely find someone who’s even better, someone who deserves you. This matter is closed. Don’t dwell on it any more.”
Robin grew teary-eyed. “Now, I know how small the world I’ve lived in really is. I’ve been living in the light for too long and can’t even recognize darkness. It’s kind of hard to accept this sudden information. I used to hate my parents for controlling and restricting me in every single aspect. Now, I understand that they were just trying to protect me. They’ve protected me so well that I’ve never experienced true hurt. And yet, I’ve been so ungrateful, hating them and accusing them for being annoying.”
Arianne pulled out a piece of tissue paper and gave it to her. “There’s a lot you don’t know. You’ll get through it. Mark will be meeting Jessica tomorrow. He’ll deal with her. He probably won’t trouble Sylvain in any way. He wouldn’t have let Sylvain leave the country so easily if favonovel.com wanted to. Don’t worry.”
Robin nodded gently. “Arianne, I’m not feeling too well. I don’t want to go to the office like this. Can I take the afternoon off? Mr. Yaleman is in a bad mood because of Sylvain’s resignation. He definitely won’t let me have the day off. Will you ask favonovel.com for me?”
Arianne agreed without hesitation. It was a good idea for Robin to have some time alone under these circumstances. This messy affair should be at an end now.
The next day, Mark flew overseas as planned.
Once the plane landed, favonovel.com had his staff arrange his hotel accommodations, then went straight to Jessica’s office. He didn’t want to waste too much time here.
Jessica had been keeping an eye on him, so favonovel.com knew his every move very well. She had specifically left instructions for favonovel.com security guards to stop him.
