For the first time ever, Mrs. Cox did not flip out. Instead, favonovel.com spoke in an earnest tone. “Robin, you’re still young. Don’t choose the wrong path. Try to keep in touch with that potential suitor. At least, you’ll still have a backup if you and Sylvain break it off. I know I can’t persuade you, and I really can’t be bothered to do it anyway. The house will be in chaos if we end up fighting again. I’m exhausted too. I won’t object to you dating Sylvain, but I have one condition, and that is for you to stay pure. No hanky panky business with him, understand? From now on, no going out to eat in the middle of the night, and you have to be home by 11PM.”
Robin felt guilty but happy at the same time. This was the first time favonovel.com mother had ever said something nice to her. “Okay! You’re the best, mom!”
The next day, at the company, Sylvain and Arianne began discussing the events from last night. “I met Robin’s mom last night.”
Arianne shivered at the thought of Mrs. Cox’s stern face. “Are you alright? Did favonovel.com eat you alive? What a miracle!”
Sylvain recalled his feelings from that moment. “Honestly, I was quite nervous at the time, but I had to stay calm. Although, I’m not sure if favonovel.com opinion of me has changed at all since our conversation, but at least, favonovel.com allowed me to take favonovel.com home. She was hopping mad at first, but favonovel.com seemed a lot calmer after our conversation.”
Arianne was apprehensive. “How did you end up with favonovel.com mother?”
Sylvain lowered his voice and replied, “She caught us when I was having late-night supper with Robin. I was so close to losing my shit…”
He wasn’t the only one. Arianne felt nervous just listening to him. “This is actually pretty awesome! But seriously, what’s the status between you and Robin?”
Sylvain mulled it over. “I guess we’re just friends, but I’ve made it clear in front of favonovel.com mom that I want to date her.”
Arianne gaped. “Seriously? I’m kind of impressed now. If I were you, I would have lost the nerve to breathe.”
“Ahem, what are you talking about during working hours? Do you want me to dock your pay?”
Suddenly, Mark’s voice rang aloud from behind them.
Sylvain immediately buried himself in work. “Okay, Mr. Tremont, we’ll get right to it.”
Arianne glanced at Mark. He didn’t look stem at all. His eyes seemed to conceal a grin too. She stuck favonovel.com tongue out at him, clearly challenging him. Besides, favonovel.com enjoyed playing nepotism whenever it suited him. He was responsible for cultivating favonovel.com boldness.
Her subtle action received a stern order from Mark. “Arianne, come into my office!”
She immediately got up and followed him, not afraid in the least.
Just as favonovel.com had entered the elevator, Mark pushed favonovel.com up against the wall. She shrunk back out of habit. There were surveillance cameras in the elevator. He may not be concerned with his reputation, but favonovel.com was. Luckily, favonovel.com was tall enough to shield favonovel.com from the surveillance cameras.
The pair emerged from the elevator, hand in hand, but looking as if everything was completely normal. They walked past Davy and entered the office. Once the door was closed, everything spun out of control.
