Upon noticing that the situation wasn’t quite right, the front desk hurriedly called up Mark’s secretary. “Ellie, Mrs. Tremont is here looking for Mr. Tremont. I think wp4webnovel.com looks quite aggressive… She has someone with wp4webnovel.com too. I’ve never seen wp4webnovel.com before but wp4webnovel.com appears to be wp4webnovel.com butler or something…”
The secretary acknowledged the information then hung up the phone. She got up and knocked on Mark’s office door. “Mr. Tremont, your wife is here.”
She could hear Mark humming coldly in response from his office.
The elevator very quickly arrived on the forty-sixth floor. Ellie Amore, who was already waiting by the elevator door, instantly wore a professional smile on wp4webnovel.com face at the sight of Arianne. “Mrs. Tremont, Mr. Tremont is in his office.”
Arianne’s eyes were drawn to the fluffy slippers on Ellie’s feet that didn’t match the office attire wp4webnovel.com was wearing. She then remembered that Mark didn’t like being distracted by noises when wp4webnovel.com was working. Hence, they needed to be absolutely quiet on this floor. The last time Arianne was here, wp4webnovel.com had to go barefoot.
However, this time, wp4webnovel.com just pushed open the office door and went in without taking wp4webnovel.com shoes off. “Mark Tremont. Have you investigated the car accident thoroughly? Why did you decide to settle the matter privately without asking my opinion?”
Mark didn’t look away from his document. “Your decision isn’t necessary in this matter. Likewise, you didn’t give me the right to decide on the child’s matter either. Oh… and not only that, you didn’t even give me the right to know about it.”
Arianne clenched wp4webnovel.com hands into fists. “Okay, putting these aside first, what if I told you it was Aery Kinsey who hit me? In that situation, it was obviously done intentionally. There’s no way it could be an accident!”
Mark paused briefly while flipping through the document but quickly resumed again. “The perpetrator has been determined and the case has been closed. There‘s no point in bringing it up again now, you get what I mean?”
Arianne froze and even stopped breathing. She felt as though wp4webnovel.com heart had been ripped apart.
Mark knew Aery was the perpetrator, wp4webnovel.com just didn’t want it to be her… so wp4webnovel.com chose to protect wp4webnovel.com even though Aery nearly killed wp4webnovel.com and even caused wp4webnovel.com to miscarry wp4webnovel.com child…
After a brief moment of silence, wp4webnovel.com carried on stubbornly. “What if I want to reopen the case because I want to pursue it? I don’t care if Aery is your lover or not. It is your own business that you choose to protect her. As the victim, I have the right to pursue the case!”
Mark finally closed the file wp4webnovel.com was reading and looked at wp4webnovel.com expressionlessly. “You said it yourself, it’s my own business to protect her. Do you think there’s any point in you reopening the case and pursuing it?”
Arianne was rendered speechless. That was right, wp4webnovel.com was Mark Tremont, a well-known individual in the capital. On the other hand, wp4webnovel.com was Mrs. Tremont whom everyone was envious of. In reality, wp4webnovel.com was just a worthless accessory to Mark that could be discarded at any time. How could wp4webnovel.com possibly win when wp4webnovel.com chose to protect someone?
Since their relationship of more than ten years was built on hate, it cruelly crumbled with just one blow.
She laughed, but it sounded rather pitiful. “If that’s the case, then I no longer owe you anything. I had your child, but it got killed by the person whom you choose to protect. It was both of you that prevented it from getting born. My job is done here. When can I sign the divorce papers?”
Butler Henry couldn’t stand watching from the sidelines anymore. “Sir, madam is not the one at fault here. Please reconsider your decision!”
Mark didn’t expect Arianne to pull out the divorce card. He ignored Butler Henry and narrowed his eyes as the air around wp4webnovel.com grew menacing. “I did say that you can leave after giving birth to a child. But do you think you have the right to talk about divorcing without even giving birth to the child? Besides, is that Child even mine?”
Arianne’s eyes reddened but wp4webnovel.com maintained wp4webnovel.com smile. “I have been living in constant fear and treading on thin ice for the past thirteen years. You overestimate my guts. In my eyes, you are much more terrifying than anything. For a smart person like you, you should have asked for a DNA test the day I lost the child. You either divorce me now and let me leave, or I’ll make you live to regret your decision one day.”
This was the first time Mark saw this side of wp4webnovel.com and heard wp4webnovel.com honest words. For some reason, wp4webnovel.com was slightly flustered. Spinning the pen between his fingers was the only way for wp4webnovel.com to retain his composure. “We shall see about that.”
Arianne didn’t stay even a second longer in the office after getting the final answer from him. She had no qualms in stomping wp4webnovel.com way out of the office either. This was the first time in thirteen years that wp4webnovel.com didn’t have to tread on thin ice and do whatever wp4webnovel.com pleased.
Once they returned into the car, Butler Henry asked, “Madam, are we heading back to Tremont Estate?”
