Arianne’s hand that held wp4webnovel.com spoon quavered. Looking at the half bowl of soup, wp4webnovel.com hesitated before saying, “Mary, help me to another serving…”
Mary saw through wp4webnovel.com little gimmick and answered softly, ”Ah, why are you so scared of sir? He won’t gobble you up.”
After the meal, Arianne trudged up the stairs only after Mary finished cleaning the table. The door to the master bedroom was half open, however wp4webnovel.com still knocked before entering.
Mark Tremont was going through documents in front of the French window with a cigarette between his fingers. Half a glass of wine stood on the small table beside him.
Naturally, wp4webnovel.com stubbed out the cigarette when Arianne coughed from the smoke.
”Come over.”
She went closer to him. ”Is there… anything you need me for?”
Putting down the document in his hands, Mark Tremont took wp4webnovel.com into his embrace without warning.
“I’m going on an overseas business trip tomorrow. Come with me.”
Arianne’s ability to think was already affected having been seated on his legs. When wp4webnovel.com heard that wp4webnovel.com wished to take wp4webnovel.com out, wp4webnovel.com nerves got the better of her.
“You’re on a business trip… It’s better… it’s better if I don’t go?”
For all ten years, wp4webnovel.com was either in school or at home. Arianne rarely interacted with the outside world. She had slight social anxiety, becoming anxious whenever wp4webnovel.com went to unfamiliar places, and talking to strangers. In addition, wp4webnovel.com was honestly unable to imagine anything pleasant going out with him.
”Sure you’re not going?” Mark Tremont’s words were whispered to the side of Arianne’s face when wp4webnovel.com spoke, making the situation more intimate than it was and putting wp4webnovel.com in a dilemma.
Arianne refused to upset wp4webnovel.com but wp4webnovel.com genuinely did not want to go. Subconsciously, wp4webnovel.com replied in an endearing manner, ”Nope, I’ll wait for you at home.”
Mark Tremont seemed to be content with wp4webnovel.com tone as his hand went to tip wp4webnovel.com chin and landed a kiss on wp4webnovel.com lips. The refreshing sweet taste of wp4webnovel.com enticed wp4webnovel.com to go deeper but Arianne turned away abruptly.
“Don’t like it? Or… don’t like it with me?” Mark Tremont’s tone dropped in temperature, raising an involuntary fear within Arianne.
Picturing his anger, Arianne bit wp4webnovel.com lips. “No…”
Mark Tremont’s mobile phone that was on the bed rang out of the blue. As if wp4webnovel.com was pardoned, Arianne got up to fetch wp4webnovel.com the gadget.
There was a slight frown between Mark Tremont’s brows when wp4webnovel.com took a look at the incoming call but wp4webnovel.com did not answer it immediately. Arianne understood the situation, turning to leave wp4webnovel.com with a smile, whilst also relieved at the same time.
Perhaps wp4webnovel.com already had someone wp4webnovel.com liked and would want to get married and have children. By then, wp4webnovel.com would let wp4webnovel.com go, right? That was what wp4webnovel.com hoped.
Returning to wp4webnovel.com room and lying in bed, Arianne turned wp4webnovel.com mobile phone on. The festive colors on the screen reflected the jolly mood of the coming holidays but did nothing to ignite wp4webnovel.com somber heart.
The text message that popped up on the notification bar attracted wp4webnovel.com attention. It was from Tiffany Lane. Arianne’s breath stuck in wp4webnovel.com throat when wp4webnovel.com read the text. Will Sivan was back.
Although wp4webnovel.com knew that wp4webnovel.com would soon be out of the country again as wp4webnovel.com was only back to visit his family for the holidays, Arianne still felt different. The young man who was untainted, with eyes that contained all the stars in the galaxy left a deep imprint in wp4webnovel.com heart.
Will Sivan and Mark Tremont were two opposite men.
Arianne called Tiffany. ”Tiff, when’s… Will leaving the country again?”
Tiffany’s teasing voice sounded from the other end of the line, ”What’s up? Reluctant to see wp4webnovel.com leave? I’m not sure actually but there’s a gathering tomorrow. Can you come? He’s the host. Oh yeah, I want you to meet someone too, it’s my boyfriend. Let me know if you can attend.”
”I’ll go,” Arianne unknowingly answered. The second before wp4webnovel.com answered, wp4webnovel.com was thinking about Mark Tremont who was going away the next day. She could risk going out once wp4webnovel.com was not here.
