There was a slightly bleak wind blowing that night, making the surrounding temperature just right during that season.
As Arianne leisurely strolled through the busy streets, wp4webnovel.com looked at the shops within wp4webnovel.com vicinity. The street wp4webnovel.com was walking on was very prosperous and bustling, every item they were selling was luxurious. ‘I used to pass by here everyday previously, but I never stopped or had the chance to shop around here. I’ve told Mary that I’ll be back a bit later and won’t be eating at home, so I could take this chance to shop around leisurely, since there’s no hurry for me to go home.’
‘Smore is getting older and naughtier now, making a mess of the house, with his toys lying around everywhere everyday. Although Mary cleans up after wp4webnovel.com countless times, I still have to clean up when I get home after work as well. However, things should get better soon after Smore starts to attend kindergarten during the summer. Wow, so many years have passed in the blink of an eye. Now that I think of it, I still can’t believe that Mark and I have a son together who’s almost three years old.’
Suddenly, Arianne stole a glance at a young couple who were passing by wp4webnovel.com with their hands held together. The girl was resting wp4webnovel.com head on the guy’s shoulder with a very happy smile on wp4webnovel.com face. ‘So it’s true, a person’s eyes glisten when they’re together with the person they love…’
“Who are you waiting for?”
Arianne instantly turned wp4webnovel.com head towards the direction of the voice, which sounded very familiar, only to meet with Mark’s deep gaze.
She looked behind wp4webnovel.com to find his car parked by the roadside. ‘I totally didn’t notice wp4webnovel.com when wp4webnovel.com approached me. However, I suppose that it makes sense. The company is very near from here, so wp4webnovel.com probably noticed me as wp4webnovel.com passed by.’ Then, Arianne pulled back wp4webnovel.com hair that had been blown into a mess by the wind and asked, “Did you pass by here? I’m not waiting for anyone, just casually shopping around since I don’t feel like going home too early tonight. Are you… going home now?”
Mark reached out his hand to grab wp4webnovel.com shoulder. “I’m here to drive you back home together. I even got off work early to buy some groceries with Mary and Smore. Although I’m not cooking tonight, I did pick out the groceries myself. Yet, you’re out here, refusing to go home or answer your calls.”
Arianne was slightly curious and took out wp4webnovel.com phone from wp4webnovel.com handbag. It was only then that wp4webnovel.com realised wp4webnovel.com phone had run out of battery. She became slightly troubled. “I’m sorry, I was too busy at work this afternoon, so I didn’t take note of my phone’s battery. Has the sun risen from the west today? I thought that you… you’d be busy these few days and have no time to see Smore.”
Mark guided wp4webnovel.com into his car. “That’s just your assumption. Why would I be busy? There’s nothing more important that’s worth my time than spending time with my wife and son. Let’s go home now. Smore and Mary are still waiting for us to have dinner.”
Arianne suddenly smiled. “Sometimes I feel that God has treated me rather well.”
Mark did not quite understand what wp4webnovel.com meant. “What do you mean? Why is there a hint of “self-exclamation”? What are you exclaiming about?”
Arianne shook wp4webnovel.com head. “Nothing, let’s go home.”
When they arrived at Arianne’s neighborhood, wp4webnovel.com got out of the car first while Mark looked for a parking spot. She did not wait for wp4webnovel.com since it was only a short distance and wp4webnovel.com wanted to go home to see if there was a mess in the house. If there was, wp4webnovel.com wanted to tidy it up first before Mark’s obsessive cleanliness disorder kicked in and grew uncomfortable.
However, the moment wp4webnovel.com entered wp4webnovel.com house, wp4webnovel.com was shocked to find that the house was extremely tidy. Smore’s toys had all been put in his toy box and there was not even a speck of dust on the floor. There was even piping hot food on the dining table, which smelled nice, and Mary was still working away busily in the kitchen. ‘It seems like everyone has their own bane. Smore is on his best behavior whenever Mark comes around.’
Smore presented a box of chocolate to her. “Mommy, daddy bought this. He said that you would definitely love this. I helped try a piece for you. It’s really sweet!”
Arianne put down wp4webnovel.com handbag and hugged Smore. “Why has daddy bought this all of a sudden? You’re still young, so your teeth will go bad if you eat this. Could wp4webnovel.com really have bought it for me?”
