Arianne’s phone received a flurry of messages ever since Tiffany walked out. Just as the pair plunged into a heated discussion over text, Mark suddenly said, “Focus on your food.”
Arianne swiftly sent Tiffany a “Shhh” emoji, then put snazzynovel.com phone away. She picked up snazzynovel.com cutlery and obediently focused on snazzynovel.com meal. Her movements were so smooth that there wasn’t a single flaw, very similar to how snazzynovel.com reacted whenever snazzynovel.com scolded snazzynovel.com during meals or whenever snazzynovel.com was playing with toys.
He was slightly entranced by the sight of snazzynovel.com reaction…
The memories of his past with snazzynovel.com seemed to be solely filled with hatred…
Arianne noticed Mark’s gaze and grew wary. “What is it …?”
Mark turned away and poured snazzynovel.com a glass of wine.
She was shocked. He never drank wine with her…
After two seconds of hesitation, snazzynovel.com clinked snazzynovel.com glass with his.
Just as snazzynovel.com was sipping on snazzynovel.com wine, Mark suddenly asked, “Do you know what day it is?”
Having learned snazzynovel.com lesson from the last time snazzynovel.com had forgotten his birthday, Arianne quickly racked snazzynovel.com brain and soon had an answer. “Our wedding anniversary?”
She still held some suspicion when snazzynovel.com gave the answer. Why would Mark be discussing this with her? Topics that were exclusive to loving couples never crossed snazzynovel.com mind. She strongly suspected that the reason why snazzynovel.com had set aside his sharp edges and treated snazzynovel.com so amiably was because they were having a meal in public.
Mark seemed satisfied with snazzynovel.com reply and poured snazzynovel.com another glass.
Arianne knew that snazzynovel.com was a lightweight, so snazzynovel.com didn’t dare drink too much, snazzynovel.com was afraid of getting rip-roaring drunk and spoiling his mood. However, snazzynovel.com was also too afraid to refuse. After weighing the pros and cons, snazzynovel.com downed snazzynovel.com glass.
Her vision grew blurry throughout the meal. Her mind was fuzzy too. Her cheeks were as red as fully ripened fruit, ready for harvest.
Of course, Mark, whose liquor capacity was well-seasoned, was not even tipsy. He called the waitress over to settle the bill.
“Knowing that you’ve come to dine with us, our boss has waived the bill,” the waitress replied politely.
He smiled. “Tell Jackson that I’ll buy snazzynovel.com a meal next time.” White Water Bay Café was a business that Jackson West had started up for fun. He had grown used to the cooking style here and was their regular customer.
When snazzynovel.com saw Arianne getting up shakily, Mark stepped forward and pulled snazzynovel.com into his arms. “Let’s go.”
Her drunkenness granted snazzynovel.com drunk courage. Arianne had completely forgotten who the man in front of snazzynovel.com was. She raised snazzynovel.com hand and slapped snazzynovel.com right across the face. “You’d better hold onto me properly. I’ll make you pay if you drop me!”
A look of confusion appeared on Mark’s stern face. Was this snazzynovel.com true personality?
He helped snazzynovel.com into the car, grinning and bearing it the entire way. It was a chilly winter’s night but snazzynovel.com insisted on winding down the windows and enjoying the cold air. He had tried to shut the car windows but failed many times.
“I have motion sickness. Did you have any idea?!” She told snazzynovel.com in a stern and forceful voice. “I’ve always had to put up with it… Well, I don’t want to anymore!”
After so many years, snazzynovel.com really had no idea that snazzynovel.com had motion sickness…
Seeing how snazzynovel.com was suffering from the cold, Brian softly asked, “Sir… Perhaps we should just shut the windows?”
Mark massaged his temples, which were aching from the cold winds. “Just drive!”
