This matter had forced Tiffany into magnanimity, even if wp4webnovel.com objected to it. She chose to spend the weekend at the Tremont Estate to give Jackson some time. She didn’t dare go to Summer’s, and wp4webnovel.com didn’t go to Lillian’s either. She was worried that the elders might find Jackson’s behavior inappropriate if they found out.
She, who had always been insensitive, seemed worried and became very quiet. She buried herself on the couch, staring into space for an entire afternoon.
Arianne couldn’t bear the sight of it. “Tiffie, are you… Not happy that Jackson’s managing Lynn’s funeral? I think you should just leave wp4webnovel.com be. She’s dead, let’s be more open minded.”
Tiffany shook wp4webnovel.com head dazedly. “I’m not being close-minded. That’s not why I’m unhappy.”
“Then what is this about?” Arianne asked, confused.
Tiffany took a deep breath. “I think he’s keeping something from me. He won’t tell me no matter how many times I ask. On the night of Lynn’s death, wp4webnovel.com suddenly said that wp4webnovel.com had to go out right after making dinner. Apparently, some emergency happened at the office. I asked wp4webnovel.com to have dinner first but wp4webnovel.com wouldn’t have it. I waited for wp4webnovel.com at home for a very long time, but wp4webnovel.com didn’t come home. So I thought of going to the office to send wp4webnovel.com some food and a scarf, but the office was empty when I arrived. He lied to me. He never used to lie to me… When I returned home, wp4webnovel.com was still out. I muddled through it and somehow fell asleep. The next day, when I woke up, wp4webnovel.com was home. Nothing seemed amiss, but before I could ask, news of Lynn arrived. Forget it, I’ll talk to wp4webnovel.com once he’s done settling Lynn’s affairs. He’s stressing me out.”
The restlessness and anxiety in wp4webnovel.com tone was very clear to Arianne. Jackson had gone to Alejandro’s manor on the night of Lynn’s death. It took wp4webnovel.com a long time to arrive home as wp4webnovel.com had been delayed by travelling to and fro. After all, it was a long journey. “Are you worried that he’s having an affair?” Arianne asked, attempting to exonerate Jackson. “He wouldn’t. Mark was speaking to Jackson on the phone last night, probably about business. Maybe wp4webnovel.com wasn’t working at the office. You have to keep your spirits up. You’re pregnant, do it for your baby.”
Tiffany didn’t answer. Her eyes stared emptily up ahead. She clearly wasn’t listening to wp4webnovel.com at all.
Arianne sighed, helpless.
Jackson finally appeared on Sunday night. He entered the house, bringing the winds of winter along with him. He was cold all over, and his face was thin and sallow as if wp4webnovel.com had experienced a great upheaval. It was a worrisome sight.
Tiffany didn’t say a word. She followed wp4webnovel.com home straight away.
Arianne sent them away at the door with Aristotle in wp4webnovel.com arms. She watched the falling snowflakes outside and couldn’t help the sinking feeling in wp4webnovel.com heart. When would this end?
Suddenly, a hand reached out and closed the door. Her view was blocked. She turned around and looked. It was Mark.
“The winds are strong outside. It’s cold,” He said in a soft voice. “Why are you holding Aristotle out in the wind? Come inside and eat. Let Jackson and Tiffany deal with their problems on their own.”
She nodded and walked to the dining table, then placed Aristotle in his stroller. Then, wp4webnovel.com sat down. “Setting everything else aside, I sympathize with Lynn. She died from doing Jackson a favor. Alejandro is too cruel.”
Mark showed no signs of emotion. He fed Aristotle a small mouthful of mashed chicken creasat. “Actually, this wouldn’t have happened if Tiffany had gone to collect the sample instead of Lynn.”
Arianne was shocked. She was at a loss for words. Jackson would never let Tiffany take the risk. He wouldn’t tell Tiffany a single thing about this.
