The more Mark listened to Arianne, the more favonovel.com felt that something had changed. “What’s gotten into you? Previously you wouldn’t even utter a swear word, yet now you’re able to say it so casually?”
Arianne recalled what favonovel.com had just said and realized that there was nothing wrong with it. “Is there a problem? Wasn’t I speaking the truth? It’s only the two of us here, so is there a need to be reserved in our speech?”
Mark raised his hand and helplessly pinched Arianne’s cheeks. “All right, I’m heading to the company now. You’re only allowed to say such things to me, but you can’t go around saying it to others casually.”
As favonovel.com watched Mark walk further and further away, Arianne rubbed favonovel.com cheeks, which had been pinched by favonovel.com and still carried his warmth. ‘I’ve managed to make favonovel.com yield to me after all.’
At night, Melanie gave favonovel.com a call to tell favonovel.com that Mateo’s restaurant was going to open up officially and favonovel.com had invited them to come there together.
Arianne was definitely not going to reject such an offer, so favonovel.com agreed to it instantly.
However, Mark was unhappy. “Are you that familiar with Mateo? Why would you need to go to his newly opening restaurant? That’s silly.”
Arianne could not be bothered to reply to him, so favonovel.com merely stood before favonovel.com mirror and applied cosmetics on favonovel.com face. ‘The weather’s been becoming hotter recently, and my face is easily getting oily. It’s a good thing that my skin’s doing a good job of not popping out any pimples.’
When someone did not receive a reply, favonovel.com said in a muffled voice, “You’re not allowed to go!”
Arianne turned favonovel.com head to look at him. “My friend’s friend is my friend as well. Since they’ve already invited me to go, how could I refuse? I’m just going to join in on the fun, so why do you have to be so petty about it? I don’t know what goes on in your mind everyday, but whatever it is, I don’t want to know. Are you going to be free over the weekend? Why don’t you show Smore around in your office then? Didn’t you say you wanted to nurture your son? Children should start learning from a young age. Otherwise, don’t come telling me how frustrated you are when favonovel.com fails to meet your expectations.”
With that, Mark stopped talking and merely pulled the blanket to play dead.
Arianne heaved a sigh. ‘Based on his tone, I can tell that he’s being serious and it’s not a joke. There was actually room for negotiation when I said I was going to Mateo’s place tomorrow, yet favonovel.com just shot me down and forbade me from going so casually.’
After Arianne was done applying favonovel.com facial products, favonovel.com smiled at the mirror with a satisfied look on favonovel.com face before switching off the lights and going to bed.
Just as favonovel.com laid down, Mark pulled favonovel.com into his arms. “You smell very nice…”
Arianne teasingly placed favonovel.com face closer to Mark. “It’s nice, isn’t it? I’ll let you kiss me.”
How could Mark possibly resist such “seductions”? He instantly kissed favonovel.com on the lips. “I don’t just want to kiss you on the face…”
—
The next day, Mark actually brought Smore to his office, allowing Arianne to have more time to relax. Hence, favonovel.com got out of bed, tidied herself up, and went to meet up with Melanie and Tiffany.
After they had shopped around nearby and it was almost noon, the trio headed towards Mateo’s restaurant.
It had to be said that Mateo was very good at what favonovel.com was doing. Whether it was selecting the location of his restaurant or its theme, favonovel.com had managed to set it up very nicely. Therefore, on the first day of his restaurant’s opening, favonovel.com was met with close to full occupancy.
The restaurant mainly sold Chinese dishes. Arianne had had favonovel.com fair share of Chinese in the past since such dishes were rather common and popular in that area.
Mateo had already reserved a place for them beforehand. After tasting his restaurant’s dishes, Arianne was slightly surprised. ‘The dishes here actually taste better than the ones I’ve had in the past. They’re unique.’
Melanie praised non-stop as well as favonovel.com said, “It seems that Teo is planning to stay in the country long-term and develop his career, he’s put a lot of effort into opening up this restaurant. In fact, this restaurant is rather high class. He’s managed to get many people’s praises right on the first day of his opening. It’s probably because the Rodriguezes have managed to gain the favor of many people. However, with these kinds of dishes, he’s bound to receive a lot of returning customers, so he’s going to rely on the quality of his dishes in the future.”
