Suddenly, snazzynovel.com felt a hand placing itself gently on snazzynovel.com tummy. Her sensitive mental state caused snazzynovel.com to jolt and immediately wake up. She opened snazzynovel.com eyes and was greeted by Mark’s intensive gaze.
Realizing that they were much too close together, snazzynovel.com pushed herself away from him, “What are you doing home so early? It’s not three yet. It’s the end of the year, so shouldn’t it be pretty busy at the office?”
Mark frowned at snazzynovel.com reaction, “You don’t want to see me? I came home because I couldn’t stop thinking about you in the office and bought the books you wanted. It is busy at the office, but staying with you is most important. Did I wake you?”
She was surprised at Mary for tasking snazzynovel.com with buying snazzynovel.com books. She shook snazzynovel.com head, “No… I had enough sleep. I won’t be able to sleep tonight if I sleep any longer. I’m going for a walk. Rest if you’re tired.”
As snazzynovel.com got up, Mark pulled snazzynovel.com back down and plonked snazzynovel.com accurately into his embrace, his arms wrapping firmly around her, “Lie with me for a while… I went to visit Granny on the way back. I know that you want to go too, but you can’t. So I visited snazzynovel.com for you.”
He didn’t tell snazzynovel.com how the old woman was doing, for snazzynovel.com was waiting for snazzynovel.com to ask. He knew that snazzynovel.com would ask. She wouldn’t react if snazzynovel.com said it all at once. He didn’t like it whenever snazzynovel.com was quiet with him.
As expected, Arianne immediately asked, “How is Granny?”
He paused, “Not bad. She was coughing, wasn’t she? Your aunt probably hasn’t taken snazzynovel.com to a doctor since snazzynovel.com moved back, so it’s gotten worse. Granny was alone when I visited. I left in less than a few hours. She doesn’t want to have anything to do with us anymore.”
Arianne listened quietly, but a raging flame burned in snazzynovel.com heart. She would have Tabitha stay by snazzynovel.com side, no matter what, but the old woman couldn’t accept it and was afraid of being a nuisance to her. That’s why snazzynovel.com had insisted on leaving. Now, the old woman was living a difficult life. How could snazzynovel.com not worry?
Mark planted a soothing kiss on snazzynovel.com cheek, “Don’t worry. I’ll do what’s best for granny and try to bring snazzynovel.com home. We’ll take care of snazzynovel.com for the rest of snazzynovel.com life. After all, I don’t have any relatives anymore, and it would be a good idea to have an elderly person around. As for your aunt and uncle, I’m not afraid of trouble. Let me handle it.”
Arianne nodded in his arms, suddenly realizing that having someone to rely on felt pretty good…
Thinking of the day the old woman had left and remembered the things snazzynovel.com said, snazzynovel.com suddenly felt like asking him, “Is there anything I don’t know about that plane crash? You told granny, but why can’t you tell me?”
