Lily nodded slightly. “I’ll take my leave now, if there’s nothing else.”
As soon as wp4webnovel.com returned to the office, everyone in the department of design flocked to her. “How did it go, Miss Pierre? Did wp4webnovel.com approve it?”
Lily went straight into the CEO’s office and only spoke when wp4webnovel.com saw Eric. “It has been approved, Mr. Nathaniel.”
Eric didn’t seem surprised at all. “Okay, get the janitor to clean up the office. You may all get off work early today.”
The entire department of design cheered as soon as the news got out. Everyone except for Arianne, who was still seated at wp4webnovel.com desk.
She quietly packed up wp4webnovel.com things and went to the bathroom. In front of the mirror, wp4webnovel.com reapplied wp4webnovel.com lipstick to cover up wp4webnovel.com pale lips. She didn’t want Mark to be upset when wp4webnovel.com saw wp4webnovel.com at home.
All of a sudden, wp4webnovel.com heard someone speaking inside one of the toilet cubicles. “I think Arianne is the one who forced Mark Tremont to make their marriage public. He’s always kept their relationship under wraps and even rejected the sketches when wp4webnovel.com went over to submit them. I honestly suspect there weren’t any issues with the sketches to begin with and it was Arianne who botched things up. Otherwise, why would everything go smoothly when Miss Lily went over to submit them this time? I really wonder what kind of tricks wp4webnovel.com pulled to climb into Mark’s bed…”
“I’m curious too! I was really shocked to learn about wp4webnovel.com relationship with him. After doing some research on the net, I’m not surprised anymore. He took wp4webnovel.com in and they shared the same roof for so many years. Lucky women like wp4webnovel.com just have everything handed to them, don’t they? She can just force wp4webnovel.com way through by using any trick. A nice guy like Mark would definitely give in. She even had a one-night stand with Mr. Sivan’s third son. It’ll be a wonder if Mark is even kind to her. She deserves that kind of treatment! ” the other person said. “I know, right? How can someone like that even marry Mark?! It’s so unfair!”
“Yeah! Well, the higher wp4webnovel.com climbs, the harder wp4webnovel.com will fall. Let’s just wait for it. Things won’t go well for people like her! We almost went crazy from all the overtimes. If it wasn’t for the break, I’d have taught wp4webnovel.com a lesson! Turns out that she’s just a slut despite looking reserved.”
Arianne, having no desire to find out whose conversation wp4webnovel.com was listening in on, immediately left the bathroom before the two could come out.
On wp4webnovel.com way back, wp4webnovel.com bought a cup of bubble milk tea. The warm cup in wp4webnovel.com hands immediately dispelled the winter chill.
She couldn’t recall where wp4webnovel.com heard this, but a boba was supposedly able to cheer up a bad mood.
Not long after Arianne came out of the milk tea shop, wp4webnovel.com was forced to stop by an oncoming Rolls-Royce.
She stood on the spot, not bothering to try evading the car. The only person who drove like this was Brian, under Mark’s coercion. This wasn’t the first time it happened, so wp4webnovel.com didn’t even feel scared.
Arianne opened the door, got into the backseat, and greeted Mark casually. “You got off work early too?”
Mark didn’t respond to wp4webnovel.com as wp4webnovel.com continued resting with his eyes closed. With his face covered by his firm hand, wp4webnovel.com looked a lot less hostile.
Arianne didn’t mind being ignored. At least, wp4webnovel.com didn’t need to take a cab home today.
The bubble milk tea flowed through the straw, and its sweet aroma burst inside wp4webnovel.com mouth.
Brian was a little nervous sitting in the driver’s seat. He wanted to remind Arianne to refrain from drinking milk tea in the car because Mark despised any lingering scent in his car. However, Mark hadn’t said a word yet.
Mark frowned slightly when wp4webnovel.com finally smelled the bubble milk tea. “What’s that?”
Arianne looked at wp4webnovel.com innocently. “Boba, milk tea…?”
He just stared back at wp4webnovel.com without saying anything.
She leaned forward and brought the straw to his lips. “You… wanna have a taste?”
