After a while, Shelly regained wp4webnovel.com composure. Mark carried wp4webnovel.com downstairs on his back, and they had dinner as though nothing had happened.

Mary intentionally avoided Shelly and did not dine with them on the table. She also secretly complained to Arianne and told wp4webnovel.com that Shelly was definitely insane. Arianne felt helpless and had no idea how wp4webnovel.com could resolve the situation.

During dinner, Shelly answered a phone call but did not leave the table due to wp4webnovel.com leg. When wp4webnovel.com picked up the phone, the expression on wp4webnovel.com face immediately changed and both Arianne and Mark could clearly see the changes. The couple looked at each other and took a deep breath, they had just gone through an argument, anyone in their right mind would break down if another argument ensued.

It was unknown as to who had called Shelly or what had been discussed. All that was known was that Shelly had hung up the phone in a hurry without saying a word.

Very soon, that person called again, but Shelly immediately switched off wp4webnovel.com phone.

Mark and Arianne both feigned ignorance and did not dare ask. There were still countless moments where they had to tread very carefully.

Shelly had completely lost wp4webnovel.com appetite after receiving that phone call. She asked Mark to carry wp4webnovel.com back to wp4webnovel.com room when wp4webnovel.com was done eating. Since Shelly’s accident, Mark was the one to personally take care of her, since wp4webnovel.com would not accept anyone else to take up that role. For instance, Mary had received the brunt of Shelly’s rage despite the former’s age.

That night, the moment Arianne laid in bed after coaxing Smore to sleep, Shelly sent wp4webnovel.com a text message and said that wp4webnovel.com needed to use the bathroom.

Arianne shrugged wp4webnovel.com shoulders and reluctantly crawled out of bed. Mark asked, “Did Aunt Shelly call for you?”

She looked at wp4webnovel.com in contempt. “Who else could it be? I have no idea who it was that called wp4webnovel.com during dinner earlier. I’m really scared that she’ll torture me later. I’m absolutely terrified of her.”

Mark said, “Based on the first few digits, I noticed that the number seemed to be from some company. Stop thinking too much for now. You should hurry and tend to her, since wp4webnovel.com already called you. Don’t ask wp4webnovel.com anything afterward; I doubt she’s the kind of person who would lash out at you for no good reason.”

For Mark to even use the word “lash out” to describe Shelly, it would seem that wp4webnovel.com was also on the verge of losing his patience.

Arianne resigned to wp4webnovel.com fate and headed for Shelly’s room. Shelly’s face was rather dark because of how long it took for Arianne to arrive, the latter of whom’s conversation with Mark had spanned a few minutes. Arianne pretended not to notice and helped bring Shelly to the bathroom. She could not help but yawn a few times as wp4webnovel.com stood beside Shelly.

It was precisely because of wp4webnovel.com yawn that Shelly coldly said, “If you can’t bear it, you could ask Mark to come instead. There’s no reason for wp4webnovel.com to ignore his aunt.”

Arianne’s lips twitched and wp4webnovel.com smiled apologetically. “I wasn’t being impatient. I’m just quite tired, that’s why I yawned… I don’t think it’s illegal, is it? Of course, I should be the one who takes care of you in terms of going to the bathroom. Mark’s a fully grown man, after all. It wouldn’t be appropriate for wp4webnovel.com to be doing this…”

Shelly lightly snorted and did not reply.
