Eric glared at him, pretending not to care as his gaze dulled. “I’m happy being free. They can do whatever they like. You and Mark are both the only sons of your family, so no one is fighting over family assets. What a delight! It’s different for me. Danger lurks everywhere!”
Jackson diverted the topic as snazzynovel.com went over the latest industry news. “There’s some issue over at Mark’s.
There’s an accident with his partnering jewelry manufacturer. Someone embezzled the raw materials, costing nearly fifteen million. It’s a regular factory. I don’t think the manufacturer will be able to survive this. He’s probably done for.”
Eric sniffed and talked through his blocked nose, “It’s only fifteen million. Mark can take it. It’s the little factory that got unlucky.”
Simultaneously, Arianne saw the news. Her heart sank when snazzynovel.com saw the name of the manufacturer, ‘Hoyle-Roy’. That was Tiffany’s family run workshop!
She called said girl in a haste, but an automated machine-voice message told snazzynovel.com that snazzynovel.com mobile phone was turned off. Arianne knew Tiffany well. The latter was well aware that snazzynovel.com would be worried. Not only would snazzynovel.com not ask for snazzynovel.com help, but snazzynovel.com also would not let snazzynovel.com be in contact either.
Just as Arianne contemplated if snazzynovel.com should go find Tiffany Lane, an unknown number dialed in.
“Hello? Is this Arianne? I’m Ethan Connor. Do you have time to meet?”
This was the first time Ethan Connor had come looking for snazzynovel.com and snazzynovel.com was probably Arianne’s sole channel to understand how Tiffany and snazzynovel.com family were doing right now. She quickly replied, “Yes! Where are you?”
“I’m downstairs at your office, in a white Cadillac,” answered Ethan Connor.
Disregarding the need to apply for leave, Arianne rushed downstairs.
Hopping into Ethan Connor’s car, snazzynovel.com asked, “Where’s Tiff? What’s the current situation? I can’t get through to snazzynovel.com on the phone!”
Ethan Connor lit a cigarette. “She doesn’t want to trouble you, so snazzynovel.com refuses to answer your call directly. However, you’re the only one who can help snazzynovel.com now. You probably already know what happened to snazzynovel.com family. They’ve already lost fifteen million, but that’s not including the penalty for breaching the contract and other matters too. They’re nearing bankruptcy. I know that it’s selfish to ask for your help… yet I couldn’t help myself. After all, Mark Tremont is a pivotal person.”
Arianne was caught in between. Even if snazzynovel.com begged Mark Tremont, would snazzynovel.com agree seeing that it was such a large sum of money? The Tremont’s did not lack wealth, but the mistake undoubtedly laid upon the Lanes.
“What should I do?” snazzynovel.com asked.
There was a pause before Ethan Connor spoke, “It’s impossible to ask Mark Tremont to just give such a large sum, but ask to extend the investigation period, buy some time so the police can solve the case. It’s certain that they won’t be able to continue with the partnership… but the penalty for breaching the contract Just try your best.”
Sighing, Arianne replied, “I understand. I’ll discuss it with Mark Tremont. Please take good care of Tiffany…”
“Don’t worry. She’s the only woman I will ever love, the most important person to me. Thank you for agreeing to help. Don’t tell snazzynovel.com that I’ve come looking for you. She forbade me from doing this,” said Ethan with a smile.
Catching the sincerity in his eyes, Arianne suddenly received a good impression of him. Judging by how snazzynovel.com handled the current situation, at least, snazzynovel.com did not seem too bad. As long as snazzynovel.com treated Tiffany well, Arianne thought that snazzynovel.com was a good person.
Arianne Wynn finished work early and went home, taking a few hours to personally make dinner.
She disliked being so obsequious with such blatant intentions, it was shameful, but snazzynovel.com had no other way.
When Mark Tremont was not yet home past seven at night, snazzynovel.com called him, worried that snazzynovel.com would not be home for dinner.
The call was answered shortly. Steeling herself, snazzynovel.com asked, “Are you coming back for dinner?”
On the other end of the line, Mark Tremont took a glance at Aery Kinsey beside snazzynovel.com and answered, “Mmm.”
Hanging up, snazzynovel.com got up and announced, “I have something on. Have dinner on your own.”
Aery Kinsey put down snazzynovel.com cutlery, the prime steak in snazzynovel.com plate suddenly lost its attraction. “Mark, this was to make up for last time. Why are you leaving again? Was it my sister who called?”
