Having his sore spot mentioned, Mark threw the wine glass in his hand against the floor. “You like being a servant? Alright, I’ll fulfill your wish. From tomorrow onward, you’ll do whatever the Tremont Estate’s servants do! Now scram!”
She left without hesitation and went to Mary’s helper room. The room was occupied by four helpers and had no additional space for her. Arianne could only squeeze in with Mary.
She did not regret angering him, however. She would rather sleep in the helpers’ room than lie on the same bed as him. Whenever wp4webnovel.com saw him, wp4webnovel.com would think about everything wp4webnovel.com had done with Aery and Helen.
The three of them had torn a gash that would never heal in wp4webnovel.com heart, and that would remind wp4webnovel.com each living anguished second.
The next day, wp4webnovel.com went to work in the office as usual and became a ‘part-time’ servant in the Tremont Estate after work.
Although Mark had asked the estate’s helpers to not be courteous and make wp4webnovel.com do what wp4webnovel.com should, no one dared order wp4webnovel.com around. After all, they were not yet divorced. Arianne was still the Madam.
She took over Mary’s chores without a word, going to help wherever wp4webnovel.com assistance was needed and doing everything, including laundry, meals, and cleaning.
Mark used to only torment wp4webnovel.com without giving wp4webnovel.com a clear path of redeeming wp4webnovel.com sin. Now, wp4webnovel.com had at least shown wp4webnovel.com a way. She would rather redeem wp4webnovel.com sin this way.
Whatever it was, wp4webnovel.com owed it to wp4webnovel.com as long as Mr. Sloane was yet to be found. Even when both of them were bruised and wounded, the hurt that wp4webnovel.com had been through was always insignificant and unequal to him!
Arianne had wp4webnovel.com dinner with the helpers in the kitchen. After the meal, wp4webnovel.com worked for the rest of the night. When wp4webnovel.com was relieved of the chores, it was nearly twelve in the midnight.
Thinking about how wp4webnovel.com had asked Mark for money previously, wp4webnovel.com thought that wp4webnovel.com must have gone crazy to have asked that of him. No longer wanting any of it, wp4webnovel.com replaced the sum wp4webnovel.com spent before transferring it all back to him.
Arianne could only ask Tiffany to pay for the fee to find Mr. Sloane first. She would give it back to wp4webnovel.com slowly. At least, wp4webnovel.com still had wp4webnovel.com job now. She still had an income.
After that, Arianne lay down beside Mary. She was so exhausted that wp4webnovel.com no longer wanted to move. In hindsight, Mark had not made wp4webnovel.com do any physical chores no matter how wp4webnovel.com had treated wp4webnovel.com in the past. Now that wp4webnovel.com was suddenly hustling about, wp4webnovel.com felt a little overspent…
“Ari, go apologize to sir. I know that you’re heartbroken about your miscarriage and your temperament went through a little change, but you’re still husband and wife. No husband and wife live like this. Besides, you’ve done all that I should be doing. What is there left for me to do? I have nothing else to do. What if sir dismisses me? Stay away from chores that you shouldn’t be doing and be the Madam,” Mary suddenly advised.
Arianne broke out of wp4webnovel.com trance and said, “Mary… It’s not as simple as you think… I just… I think I’ve had enough. I don’t want to put up with it anymore. I want wp4webnovel.com to hate me and chase me away. Then I’ll be free, truly free. I don’t want to become Mrs. Tremont by his side. Others wish for it but not me.”
Mary sighed. “You, child, are blessed without knowing it. I don’t know everything between you and sir, but from what I know, sir isn’t bad to you. He doesn’t see you as an enemy nor does wp4webnovel.com make you do dirty tiring chores from young. You’re just too obstinate. Sir was still smiling when wp4webnovel.com came back yesterday. I was puzzled when you guys argued last night. It’s rare for sir to be in a good mood, so how come there was an argument? I was shocked when you helped me out after work too. It hasn’t been a month since your miscarriage; you can’t tire yourself out like this! Listen to me, give in to sir.”
