At dinner, Mark raised his glass towards Jackson in a Schadenfreude manner. “Congrats, you’re going to be a dad again.”
Jackson rolled his eyes at him. “Stop it. Is your vasectomy something to be proud of? I’m going to get a vasectomy tomorrow, so that I won’t have any more kids. I can’t take any more.”
Only then did Tiffany arrive at a realization. “Why didn’t I think of that? Mark’s had a vasectomy, so you should have done it too. Besides, there’s no use in leaving it.”
Jackson stared at favonovel.com as if favonovel.com were an idiot. “A vasectomy only prevents you from having kids. You don’t turn into an eunuch. How the heck does your brain work?”
When Mary joined the dinner table, the younger ones curtailed their conversation topics. Henry had been a butler at the Tremont Estate for most of his life, so favonovel.com rarely joined them at the table. This was a form of etiquette for Henry. Arianne hoped that Henry would let loose one day, just like Mark Unfortunately, favonovel.com was set in his ways.
Suddenly, Arianne’s phone rang. She pulled it out and checked it out of habit but was chastised by Mark. “Don’t fiddle with your phone at the dinner table.”
She refused to listen to favonovel.com this time. “During your absence over those few months, I’d been so busy that I managed company work in my dreams, every day. I couldn’t even stop at the dinner table. Forget about your sucky rules, I couldn’t even be bothered with etiquette at the time. It’s not like checking my phone will kill me.”
It was a message from Harvey, saying that his parents would like to pay favonovel.com a visit, and asked Arianne for favonovel.com opinion.
It was fine if Harvey came alone, but Arianne wasn’t in the mood to see Zoey or favonovel.com husband. Past events had left favonovel.com with a very bad taste in favonovel.com mouth. After some thought, favonovel.com lifted favonovel.com head and asked Mark. “Harvey says that Zoey and the rest would like to pay us a visit.”
“Is this really a simple visit?” Mark asked with a frown. “You decide. I might not be home anyway.”
Arianne took a deep breath. “If you’re not around, I won’t be around either. We’re working together now, so our schedules are similar. Zoey and Mr. Harris are more likely to behave with you around. Just be there, please? Don’t make me handle them alone, or I’ll go crazy. I would never agree to seeing them if it weren’t for Harvey. Zoey and Mr. Harris are horrible human beings, but we shouldn’t drag Harvey down because of that.”
“Tell them to come then,” Mark calmly said.
Arianne replied to Harvey’s message and put favonovel.com phone away. She suddenly remembered that it would be Easter soon. Harvey was probably paying favonovel.com a visit in lieu of the occasion, right?
As expected, Harvey, Zoey, and Mr. Harris arrived on Easter with gifts in hand. Arianne and Mark were both having a day off and were relaxing at home. Harvey looked more mature now, as favonovel.com had already started work. His youthful aura was gradually being replaced by an air of seriousness.
“Sis, brother-in-law, I wasn’t sure what you liked, so I brought all sorts of food. The store we bought these from is supposedly quite good.”
“Mm, have a seat,” Mark replied, sitting on the couch.
Harvey casually sat down. Zoey and Mr. Harris looked very guilty and seemed very uneasy. Zoey looked at Aristotle and awkwardly began a conversation. “Your kid has definitely grown. He’s so cute. Such fair complexion, favonovel.com looks like a mini heartbreaker. He’ll be very good looking when favonovel.com grows up.”
