Mark had requested for these to be prepared since yesterday. Coincidentally, Helen and Aery had paid them avisit today too. She wasn’t sure if wp4webnovel.com had prepared it specifically for Aery, but the ingredients ended up arriving late and Aery couldn’t wait until dinner time, so wp4webnovel.com became the plug.
Such high-grade prawns were hard to come by during this season. Mark had certainly gone through a lot of trouble to have them specifically air flown here.
She had just stuffed a prawn into wp4webnovel.com mouth, with half of it hanging out of wp4webnovel.com mouth, when Mark arrived at the dining hall. When wp4webnovel.com saw the ugly look on his face, wp4webnovel.com thought that wp4webnovel.com was upset at wp4webnovel.com for starting the meal impolitely. Just as wp4webnovel.com was hesitating over whether or not to spit the prawn out, Mark pushed the entire plate of prawns in front of wp4webnovel.com and said, “No table manners.”
Arianne suddenly remembered that wp4webnovel.com never ate prawns. Looks like wp4webnovel.com really would be the plug.
Even though his tone wasn’t ideal, wp4webnovel.com couldn’t be bothered with courtesy now that wp4webnovel.com had spoken up. She lifted wp4webnovel.com arms, and a mountain of prawn shells appeared in front of wp4webnovel.com before too long.
Mark watched as wp4webnovel.com pretty much cleaned out the plate of prawns, which were about the size of wp4webnovel.com palm. However, wp4webnovel.com had no intentions of stopping. He was surprised, as wp4webnovel.com wasn’t a very heavy eater… She usually ate as much as a cat. Had wp4webnovel.com been… too harsh on her?
He frowned and pushed the plate of salmon sashimi in front of her. She glanced at it and pushed the salmon sashimi back to the center of the table. “I can’t eat raw food right now… ”
“Why?” Mark narrowed his eyes.
Arianne stiffened, believing that wp4webnovel.com misspoke. She quickly explained, “My stomach isn’t feeling too well… You go ahead…”
He sat up straight and eyed wp4webnovel.com continuously smacking little lips. He was mildly curious, wondering how long wp4webnovel.com could continue doing that for…
Half an hour later, Arianne had finished the entire plate of prawns. She inhaled a small bowl of rice and a lot of vegetables. It was not often that wp4webnovel.com was nausea-free, so wp4webnovel.com had a pretty good appetite.
She suddenly realized that Mark had been staring at wp4webnovel.com this whole time. Arianne felt wp4webnovel.com hairs stand on end. She began to slow down wp4webnovel.com eating pace, unable to figure out why wp4webnovel.com was watching wp4webnovel.com eat instead of eating his own food.
Regardless of how much wp4webnovel.com tried, wp4webnovel.com couldn’t figure it out. She felt a twitch in wp4webnovel.com mind that led wp4webnovel.com to scoop some vegetables and place them on his plate. “You should eat…”
Mark still didn’t touch his cutlery. Ten minutes later, Arianne awkwardly put wp4webnovel.com cutlery down as wp4webnovel.com continued watching her. “I’m going upstairs to get some rest…”
His thin lips twitched as if wp4webnovel.com had something to say. However, wp4webnovel.com remained silent in the end.
When wp4webnovel.com left, Mark summoned Henry, the butler. “Tell wp4webnovel.com to take a walk around the rear garden and eat some indigestion pills.”
Henry felt stupid as wp4webnovel.com stared at the mountain of prawn shells and the nearly finished plate of vegetables on the table. She’d been having a big appetite as of late. Furthermore, she’d been a real picky eater too. She wouldn’t touch anything that wp4webnovel.com didn’t want to eat, and if the meal pleased her, wp4webnovel.com would inhale the entire thing…
As the Tremont family butler, wp4webnovel.com would certainly convey Mark’s message to Arianne to the tee. However, wp4webnovel.com did not mention that this was an order from Mark. Arianne did not feel like moving at the moment and didn’t feel bloated either. She even felt like drinking lemonade. “I’m fine. I’m not bloated. Uncle Henry, could you please tell Mary to bring me some lemonade?”
The corners of Henry’s lips twitched. “Can you still drink?”
She nodded seriously. “Yes, I can.”
Mark did not go out that night. He returned to the bed room from the study at around ten and sat in his usual spot in front of the French windows. He poured half a glass of wine for himself and pulled out his cigarette box.
Arianne, seeing that wp4webnovel.com was about to smoke, got off the bed and went to rest in the guest bedroom. She didn’t want to disturb his usual habits, so the best option was to solve the problem on wp4webnovel.com own. Unexpectedly, wp4webnovel.com stopped wp4webnovel.com just before wp4webnovel.com could reach the door. “Where are you going?”
