Arianne was dazzled by the sights in the shopping mall when they arrived. She shopped around for cheap brands and did not intend on buying anything too expensive.
On the other hand, Lillian lingered exclusively around the sales counters of big brands. She seized the opportunity when Tiffany had gone to the changing room and pulled Arianne aside. “Ari, look at how pretty those clothes are over there. I haven’t bought any new clothes in such a long time. My daughter is so useless. I used to indulge snazzynovel.com so much in the past, and now, snazzynovel.com wouldn’t even buy me a single piece of clothing.”
Arianne forced herself to ask, “Then, how about I buy one for you? I’ve left the Tremont household so I have to survive on my own. I don’t have much so I can only afford one…”
“Alright, alright, alright,” Lillian hurriedly replied, “Just one. You’re the best, Ari!”
Arianne wiped the cold sweat off snazzynovel.com brow when snazzynovel.com saw the price of the clothing Lillian had chosen. She did not have much cash on snazzynovel.com today. The material of that knee-length skirt seemed extremely thin at first glance, and yet, it cost more than three thousand dollars… None of the clothes snazzynovel.com owned was that expensive. She was finally able to empathize with Tiffany’s frustration. It was difficult for snazzynovel.com to pick herself back up again with a mother like Lillian!
Arianne was too shy and tactful to say snazzynovel.com did not have enough money on her. However, the sales assistant had already wrapped up the skirt. She hesitated as snazzynovel.com touched snazzynovel.com wallet that held the black card Mark had given her. She had forgotten to return it to snazzynovel.com and wondered if snazzynovel.com had already canceled it.
The sales assistant approached Arianne and said politely, “Miss, please come this way to make payment.”
Arianne steadied herself and pulled out the black card, “Can you try swiping on this?”
The sales assistant’s eyes lit up when snazzynovel.com saw the card. After all, no one under the billionaire bracket would have this card. The sales assistant’s attitude changed dramatically. “Alright, alright. Please wait for a moment.”
Arianne felt mildly surprised after the card was swiped. Did Mark forget about the card while snazzynovel.com was away from the Tremont household? He did not cancel snazzynovel.com card and it could still be used. However, it was likely snazzynovel.com would cancel it once snazzynovel.com received the payment notification from the bank, right? She put the card away in snazzynovel.com wallet.
Lillian said enviously, “You may have left the Tremont household, but you’re not divorced yet. With that card, you don’t have to work or worry about food and clothes. It’s enough for you to buy whatever you want.”
Arianne was afraid of getting roped in by Lillian again so snazzynovel.com quickly corrected her, “I have to return this card to Mark We might not be divorced, but I’ve already moved out. I won’t be spending any of his money. When I visit the Tremont Estate next, I’m going to return the card to him.”
Lillian pouted. She thought to herself, ‘What a pity,’ Then, snazzynovel.com said, “He didn’t ask you to return it so why should you return it? You’re really naive. Women are born to spend men’s money. Another woman will spend it in your place if you don’t.”
This was not the first time Arianne had heard such words. She smiled bitterly, unsure of how to respond.
Tiffany and Lillian ended up fighting all the way home due to the clothes Lillian had purchased. Arianne was growing increasingly frustrated with their squabbles so snazzynovel.com excused herself by saying snazzynovel.com needed to return to Tremont Estate and separated from them.
She wondered if Mark was home, seeing as it was the weekend… She did not really want to bump into snazzynovel.com so snazzynovel.com called Mary and asked snazzynovel.com to meet snazzynovel.com at the main gate. She pulled out the card when snazzynovel.com saw Mary. “I’m not going in. Please return this to Mark for me. I used the card today, but I’ll transfer the money back to snazzynovel.com later.”
Mary furrowed snazzynovel.com brows as snazzynovel.com held the card. “Ari, what are you doing? You’re not getting divorced, must you cut snazzynovel.com off so clearly? Mr. Tremont isn’t so petty as to stop you from spending that meager amount of money. You’re Mrs. Tremont. It’s your right to spend his money! I don’t believe snazzynovel.com would cancel this card. Mr. Tremont is home today, maybe you should personally return this to him?”
