Arianne glared at her. “What nonsense are you spewing? What do you mean that I went out to meet Mateo alone late at night? You sound as though there really was something between me and him! Do you think Mark would hit me? How? Based on my understanding of him, favonovel.com would rather die from anger than hit me. Pushing me twice was considered his limit already. What kind of best friend are you? Do you wish for me to get beaten? If favonovel.com really did beat me, that would be the end of us already.”
Tiffany pouted favonovel.com lips. “I suppose you’re right, but I do think that Mark has a reason to be angry about this matter. If there were a change of characters and it was favonovel.com who had gone out with another woman, would you be able to accept favonovel.com so much as hugging her? Mateo is pretty tragic, to be able to be so persistent and let his feelings control favonovel.com for all these years ain’t easy. However, you didn’t handle this matter particularly well either. Now you’ve offended Mark. If you were to reject Mateo, you’d be too cruel, but if you didn’t, you’d be cruel to Mark instead. Hence, you wouldn’t be a good person no matter what choice you make.”
After listening to what Tiffany had said, Arianne imagined a scenario where Mark went out with another woman late at night. ‘She’s right, even if it’s a hug that didn’t mean anything, I’d still be jealous. I suppose I can’t hate favonovel.com for being so angry at the time. I’m definitely wrong in this case.’
‘Besides, my righteousness last night wasn’t because I didn’t feel guilty, but that I didn’t like favonovel.com spying on me and following me. In fact, I already felt guilty the moment I went out last night.’
“Tiffany, you’ve finally sobered up and said something clever for a change. I’ll admit that I couldn’t be a good person in this situation, and it’s my fault. Mateo was beaten up quite badly and I’ve already explained the situation to Mark, so this matter has been put behind us.”
Tiffany jokingly said, “Mateo’s original intention was to say goodbye to his past, but the situation has now developed to such an extent that it’s deeply engraved in favonovel.com already. I suppose after being beaten up so badly, he’s going to remember it forever. Although, he’s lucky that it wasn’t Jackson who hit him. Otherwise, he’d probably be confined to a wheelchair forever. Honestly, if favonovel.com weren’t so adamant about you, he’d really deserve a good woman. He’s such a nice person, be it his family background, his looks, or even his character. No matter how badly favonovel.com was beaten up, I suppose favonovel.com won’t regret meeting you anyhow, would he?”
Just as Tiffany had said that, Mark suddenly appeared from the stairs. “Is that not enough to make favonovel.com regret? He should try asking my woman out again if favonovel.com has the guts.”
Tiffany instantly fell silent and stuck favonovel.com tongue out, pretending that nothing had happened as favonovel.com munched on favonovel.com melon seeds.
Arianne purposely smiled as favonovel.com said, “Tiffany, didn’t you say you weren’t afraid of Mark? Why have you gone quiet the moment favonovel.com came down?”
Tiffany meekly glared at Arianne. “Isn’t it because… Jackson isn’t around? A wise woman would submit to the circumstances. I won’t argue with a man. I’m just sitting here munching on some melon seeds, is favonovel.com going to hold that against me? You guys should just ignore my presence here. It’s so hot outside today, I’ll stay here until Jackson comes for me tonight.”
Mark’s lips turned into a snicker. “What could Jackson do even if favonovel.com were here? Relax, I would never lay a hand on a woman.”
After that, favonovel.com retracted his smile and looked at Arianne. “I have something to say to you, Ari.”
Arianne was slightly surprised. “There aren’t any outsiders here, so you could just tell me whatever you want. What’s the matter?”
Mark paused for two seconds before favonovel.com said, “Your mom has sent me an email.”
Arianne’s body suddenly froze, and favonovel.com pretended not to be bothered as favonovel.com asked, “And? Why did favonovel.com look for you?”
