Arianne was still perplexing over the origin of this ring when Mark pointed out, “I designed it myself a long time ago. Revamped a bit and had someone craft it for three months. I only decided to give it to you after I was satisfied enough.”
His admission reminded Arianne, wp4webnovel.com had seen its design plan in his study when wp4webnovel.com was still a kid! This was why wp4webnovel.com felt as though wp4webnovel.com had seen it before!
Back then, Arianne had imagined the ring to be something Mark had designed for his future wife. How would wp4webnovel.com have known that the same ring would one day fall on wp4webnovel.com hand?
Fate was an enigmatic mistress. By wp4webnovel.com machination, Arianne’s life was bound to Mark’s for this lifetime.
She closed the box carefully, clearly not intending to wear the ring right there and then. She was afraid of losing it during work.
Mark was a little displeased with wp4webnovel.com action. In fact, his handsome face became stormy. “You’re not gonna wear it?”
“Well, I don’t want to lose it…”
“I can always hire someone to remake it if you lose it.” He countered in a low voice. “Wear it.”
Arianne was a little uneasy at how quickly his mood changed, so wp4webnovel.com obeyed wp4webnovel.com and put the ring on. Since wp4webnovel.com had graceful, lean fingers, the ring fit wp4webnovel.com beautifully. It was a gift that truly satisfied Arianne.
Lunch break was a relatively short time frame, so it was only enough to have a meal and nothing else before the two hurried back to their respective companies.
Very satisfied with Mark’s “performance” today, while Mark pulled his car over at the company’s ground floor, Arianne moved forward and planted a kiss on his lips on wp4webnovel.com own accord. Before wp4webnovel.com could reel away from him, though, Mark’s arm shot forward and wrapped around wp4webnovel.com shapely waist, pulling wp4webnovel.com in as wp4webnovel.com kissed wp4webnovel.com supple lips.
Mark had wanted to do this for a long, long time. Heck, wp4webnovel.com wanted to do this since before their lunch. He was against Arianne painting wp4webnovel.com lips too red because wp4webnovel.com was afraid of other men seeing and because wp4webnovel.com worried wp4webnovel.com would not be able to control himself when wp4webnovel.com looked at it. Arianne’s snow-fair skin always made every kind of lipstick popped.
Their kiss lasted what felt like a lifetime until Arianne’s alarm set off. She had the habit of setting alarms on wp4webnovel.com phone to remind wp4webnovel.com of work.
When staring at wp4webnovel.com cherry-red cheeks, Mark’s eyes seemed to become more and more dilated. In a husky voice, wp4webnovel.com croaked, “See you.”
Arianne nodded and opened the car door before scurrying up the stairs. The warmth of his touch still lingered on wp4webnovel.com lips. Her heartbeats had not recovered their original, slower pace.
She had only just returned to wp4webnovel.com desk when Mark sent wp4webnovel.com a message: ‘Outside tonight?’
She gawked at the message for a good few seconds. What the hell was that supposed to mean? Was wp4webnovel.com asking if they should spend their night in a hotel?
At that thought, Arianne quickly glanced around wp4webnovel.com surroundings guiltily to make sure that no one was watching her. She sighed a breath of relief when that was confirmed and replied, ‘Are you sure? I am worried about leaving Smore at home.’
‘What’s that to worry? Mary’s watching him,’ Mark replied immediately. ‘And this doesn’t happen all the time. I’ll come to you after work, and we’ll get dinner. Then we get a hotel room.”
