Shelly sighed in relief. “That’s fine then.”
It was past 2 AM, but Shelly could not go back to sleep. Hence, Arianne stayed up and the two of them talked to each other for a moment before Arianne slept away due to the amount of fatigue wp4webnovel.com had. The next day, when Arianne woke up, Shelly was still awake. Shelly looked very pale because wp4webnovel.com was not able to get a good night’s sleep the night before. It seemed like wp4webnovel.com was really having a hard time sleeping properly.
Shelly had been given a sleeping pill that day in addition to wp4webnovel.com usual medication. Based on the situation wp4webnovel.com was in, it would not be helpful for wp4webnovel.com recovery if wp4webnovel.com was not able to get enough rest. After taking the sleeping pill, wp4webnovel.com dozed off into a deep sleep without talking in wp4webnovel.com sleep again.
When Arianne recalled what wp4webnovel.com had heard the night before, wp4webnovel.com mind was filled with curiosity. She was curious about what had actually happened between Mark’s mom and Shelly for the latter to be stuck in such a deep abyss. Did wp4webnovel.com truly destroy that photo simply because wp4webnovel.com despised Mark’s dad? Was it possible… wp4webnovel.com despised Mark’s mom as well?
During the month that Shelly was hospitalized, Arianne tirelessly took care of wp4webnovel.com to the best of wp4webnovel.com abilities. When Shelly was finally discharged and the two of them returned to Tremont Estate, Arianne immediately went to sleep for an entire day before wp4webnovel.com regained a little of wp4webnovel.com energy. Taking care of the ill was really taxing on wp4webnovel.com body, and wp4webnovel.com had never tried to take care of someone for such a long time. Arianne was surprised as to how wp4webnovel.com had actually managed to complete such a feat.
Arianne had hoped that Shelly would change wp4webnovel.com opinion towards the former after that incident. However, the fact was that Shelly was not someone who was easily affected, wp4webnovel.com attitude towards Arianne was as cold as usual. The saving grace was that wp4webnovel.com would be less annoying towards Arianne when Mark was around, but wp4webnovel.com would immediately return to being cold when Mark was away. Shelly would even frown immediately the moment either of them were annoyed with each other.
Seeing how tired Arianne was for the past few days, Mark asked wp4webnovel.com to get more rest and stay at home, but wp4webnovel.com refused. “I’d better not. Aunt Shelly would be at home as well. Won’t that mean I would have to continue taking care of wp4webnovel.com during my spare time? I’d much rather come to the office and relax.”
After hearing what Arianne had said, Mark gave up on the idea and did not so much as mention that topic again.
After working in the office for the entire day, Mark and Arianne went back home. The moment they got home, they realized that something was amidst. Henry and Mary were standing by the main entrance of the house. After a quick glance, Mary seemed to be crying and Henry was trying to console her.
Arianne quickly walked up and asked, “What’s wrong Mary?”
Mary cried so much, wp4webnovel.com nose and eyes were completely red. “What else could it be? I’d rather not say… I’m sure you can guess it as well…”
Arianne looked at Henry, who merely sighed and did not say anything. Arianne immediately realized that Shelly was the cause behind all this, the latter has most likely done something to make Mary cry so much.
This was not something wp4webnovel.com could bring up casually, so wp4webnovel.com asked Mark to get to the bottom of it. “It’s fine now, Mary. You should get back to whatever you were doing and ignore the rest. You should stick to your job and ask someone else to do anything that doesn’t relate to you. It’s cold outside, let’s go in.”
After receiving Arianne’s “instructions”, Mark went in and immediately headed for Shelly’s room. Shortly after, the sound of items being smashed could be heard from wp4webnovel.com room, which was followed by shouting and sobbing. “If I have to live like this forever, I’d rather die! Is it true that I will never be able to walk again? Why did you hide it from me?!”
Arianne stood by the stairs and eavesdropped on their conversation. It would seem that Mark had truly understood Shelly’s character, so wp4webnovel.com had insisted on not letting the latter find out about the truth. However, now that the cat was out of the bag, Shelly was in a fit of rage. Arianne tried to recall, if wp4webnovel.com memory serves, wp4webnovel.com had definitely heard Shelly saying that wp4webnovel.com accident was no big deal and wp4webnovel.com would even be willing to sacrifice wp4webnovel.com life for Mark if wp4webnovel.com had to. But now, wp4webnovel.com was unable to accept it when wp4webnovel.com found out the truth about wp4webnovel.com legs? Shelly was contradicting herself.
