Did that mean Aery saved Aristotle? At least, based on wp4webnovel.com account, wp4webnovel.com did not deliberately hurt Aristotle. Arianne nodded. “He’s fine. You don’t know how to take care of babies. Next time, stay away from him. There are plenty of servants in the Tremont Estate. Someone will look after him.”
Mary was consumed with guilt for leaving Aristotle alone for a split second. “It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have left wp4webnovel.com alone without supervision. Otherwise, this wouldn’t have happened. The house cleaners are seriously a piece of work They couldn’t have mopped the water off the floor? I’m going to give them a piece of my mind when we get home.”
Helen did not defend Aery at all. She remained silent the entire time when Arianne lost wp4webnovel.com temper earlier. Actually, wp4webnovel.com had seen Aery rolling down the stairs with Aristotle in wp4webnovel.com arms. As for what happened prior to that, wp4webnovel.com was not sure. However, from wp4webnovel.com point of view, Aery had saved Aristotle. She did not dare to speak up, afraid that Arianne would accuse wp4webnovel.com of shielding Aery. No matter what wp4webnovel.com said, it would be futile. Thank goodness Aristotle was fine. Otherwise, wp4webnovel.com would not have been able to explain herself.

Mary told the kitchen to prepare a meal when they returned to Tremont Estate. The group had been too busy for lunch. They were tired and hungry.
Aristotle was too hungry to wait for the meal. He drank a bottle of milk before immediately falling asleep. Droplets of tears still clung to his curly eyelashes. It was a truly heartbreaking sight.
Arianne stared at Aristotle’s little face and felt wp4webnovel.com heart ache. She carefully carried wp4webnovel.com upstairs. She found water stains upstairs. The floor was still wet. She was annoyed. After putting Aristotle in the nursery, wp4webnovel.com asked Henry to summon all of the maids in the Tremont Estate to the living room. An angry expression could be seen on wp4webnovel.com face as wp4webnovel.com stared at the large number of servants. “Who’s responsible for cleaning indoors?”
Ten seconds later, a thirty-year-old woman stepped forward. “Me…”
Arianne waved wp4webnovel.com hand. “Henry, pay wp4webnovel.com her dues, and tell wp4webnovel.com to leave. She can’t even keep the place clean, why is wp4webnovel.com here? We have the elderly and a toddler around, and the floor is always wet. We’re lucky that nothing happened today. Who knows what might happen next time? This is wp4webnovel.com job, wp4webnovel.com responsibility. She couldn’t even clean properly!”
Henry grunted in reply and took the woman away. The other servants lowered their heads, too afraid to breathe loudly. One half was afraid of infuriating Arianne, the other half was afraid of losing a perfectly good job.
Arianne stared at everyone. An idea appeared in wp4webnovel.com mind. She did not need too many servants in Tremont Estate. Too many would only mess things up. Finally, wp4webnovel.com only retained a few necessary servants and dismissed the rest.

As soon as Mark returned and stepped into the house, wp4webnovel.com heard about what happened during the day. His reaction was not particularly big. He went back to the room, took a shower, and changed into comfortable house clothes before going to the nursery to look for Arianne.
Aristotle had been asleep ever since wp4webnovel.com arrived home. Arianne had stayed by his side the entire time.
He looked at Aristotle first as wp4webnovel.com softly asked, “Is everything okay?”
Arianne glanced at him. “Are you asking about me or Smore?”
He reached out and pinched wp4webnovel.com small nose. “I’m asking about you first, then, about Smore.”
A hint of a smile appeared in wp4webnovel.com eyes. “Smore’s fine. I was in shock. My mind went blank when I received the call at the office. Thank goodness he’s alright. Aery broke wp4webnovel.com right ankle, wp4webnovel.com leg is in a cast now. It seems that wp4webnovel.com was trying to save Smore. Why do I find it so hard to believe that wp4webnovel.com has turned over a new leaf? Do you believe it?”
