Arianne flashed Tiffany a ‘grateful’ smile. What a good friend wp4webnovel.com was.
When Tiffany saw the peculiar expression on Arianne’s face, wp4webnovel.com finally realized wp4webnovel.com transgression. “Video call from Mark?”
“Yes.” Arianne nodded with a forced smile. “He calls at this time every day.”
Mark’s expression darkened. “What does Will’s departure have to do with you? You don’t need to know about it.”
Tiffany stuck out wp4webnovel.com tongue, too afraid to speak.
Arianne was having a headache. “I never said it has anything to do with me. Will and Tiffie are good friends. I’m sure there’s nothing wrong with Tiffie and I talking in our free time, right? Stop picking a fight, you big baby. I’m feeding your son.”
This time, Mark ended the call very quickly, probably because wp4webnovel.com was upset. Arianne ignored him. There was no need to cajole wp4webnovel.com at this stage.
“I didn’t notice that you were having a video call with Mark,” Tiffany said in a cute tone, “It was an accidental slip of the tongue. I was only making conversation. Mark can’t be mad at you again, right? He’s a big man, standing at more than 180 centimeters tall, but his pettiness is the size of a whole continent.”
Arianne giggled, covering wp4webnovel.com mouth. “That’s just how wp4webnovel.com is. This doesn’t really constitute as mad just yet. It’s fine.”
Tiffany noticed the ring on wp4webnovel.com finger and clicked wp4webnovel.com tongue. “That’s a really pretty ring. I’m so fat now that I can’t even wear my wedding ring. I can only wear it when the baby is born. I wouldn’t have believed that even my fingers have gotten fat if my wedding ring didn’t fit.”
In order to cheer Tiffany up, Arianne patiently explained, “This is very normal. Try to avoid wearing bangles, rings, or any jewelry during the third trimester of your pregnancy. You’ll definitely get fat, and you’ll be bloated from your pregnancy. By then, you won’t be able to take them off even if you want to. My health was at risk during my pregnancy so I didn’t gain much weight. Smore was born prematurely as well, there were many twists and turns. I’d much prefer having a normal pregnancy like you. You should be grateful. Smore will have to go for surgery when he’s a few years older due to congenital deficiency. My heart aches every time I think of it. It’s all my fault.”
Tiffany felt much better. “You’re right. You suffered too much back then. I’m quite blessed. By the way, I think Tanya’s just been discharged. I asked the nurses during my prenatal examination this morning. Apparently, Jett has been taking care of wp4webnovel.com the whole time during wp4webnovel.com stay at the hospital. He never left. Jett’s really not bad. I wonder what wp4webnovel.com was thinking back when wp4webnovel.com was trying to trick Jackson. Didn’t things work out well in the end?”
Arianne avoided adding to the conversation. One false move, and wp4webnovel.com would end up bringing up Alejandro.
Jackson finally returned at 9 PM. Tiffany was yawning continuously when wp4webnovel.com left with him.
Arianne felt strangely content when wp4webnovel.com watched the pair walking side by side into the night. She waved at them. “Have a safe drive home.”
—
Mark returned on Thursday. Arianne found out beforehand so wp4webnovel.com put on the necklace that wp4webnovel.com had gifted her.
When Arianne arrived home, wp4webnovel.com found Mark playing building blocks with Aristotle. She strode forward, put down wp4webnovel.com bag, and teased Aristotle. “Daddy’s home, are you happy?”
Aristotle stared back at wp4webnovel.com calmly before snatching the building blocks in front of him. The corners of Arianne’s lips twitched. “I thought people say kids have bad memories? Is wp4webnovel.com still holding a grudge against me just because I accidentally touched his building blocks previously?”
