By the time Mark was done with his meeting and had returned to his office, snazzynovel.com was shocked to find Arianne had fallen asleep on the couch. Although the radiator was turned on in the office, it would still be cold to sleep without a blanket. He walked up to wake snazzynovel.com up. “I’m done with my work, let’s go eat.”
Arianne opened up snazzynovel.com eyes and sat up in a daze. She felt a little dizzy, and snazzynovel.com nose was runny. Who knew that taking a nap for such a short while would give snazzynovel.com the cold. She really felt that snazzynovel.com was weak and too prone to catching a cold. “What… What time is it?”
Mark held out his wrist in front of snazzynovel.com and pointed at the time on his watch. “What time is it? It’s after working hours now. Did you catch a cold?”
Arianne sniffed. “I think so, but it’s not a big deal. Let’s go.”
The moment they stepped out of the company, Arianne was hit by a gust of cold wind and shivered. She instinctively shrank into Mark’s embrace. “It’s so cold!”
Mark grinned. He reached out and grabbed snazzynovel.com shoulders without paying attention to gazes from onlookers. “Get in the car. You’ll feel better inside.”
Arianne enjoyed snazzynovel.com moment of being protected by him. His height made snazzynovel.com a human windbreaker.
Janice saw everything as snazzynovel.com stood by the elevator door. She found the scene painful to watch. Although snazzynovel.com knew snazzynovel.com had no right to be jealous, snazzynovel.com could not help but feel uncomfortable as though there was a thorn at snazzynovel.com side. She was definitely not the only woman who lingered around Mark, but snazzynovel.com was definitely the most stubborn one. Her life had already begun to revolve around snazzynovel.com the moment snazzynovel.com sponsored her.
“Mr. Tremont and his wife seem really happy together. I heard that his wife is ten years younger than him. I’m so envious of her. He seems to dote on snazzynovel.com a lot.”
When Janice heard the conversation in snazzynovel.com surroundings, snazzynovel.com grew even more uncomfortable in snazzynovel.com heart. She hastily walked out and left the company.

At the White Water Bay Cafe.
Arianne sent Tiffany a photo the moment snazzynovel.com sat down. “I’m having dinner at your man’s cafe.”
Tiffany had also sent Arianne a photo of snazzynovel.com eating at home. Although it was only herself and Jackson eating together, Jackson had made quite a number of dishes. Each of them looked delicious.
Mark was slightly disgruntled when snazzynovel.com saw Arianne’s unceasing attention on snazzynovel.com phone. “Who’re you talking to?”
Arianne waved snazzynovel.com phone in front of Mark. “It’s Tiffany. It’s nothing, we’re done talking now. Let’s eat.”
Mark paused for a moment before saying, “We’re not going home tonight. I’ve already informed Mary.”
Arianne looked at him. “Again? Are you sure that’s alright? I’m worried about Smore.”
Mark, on the other hand, seemed relaxed. “I’m not satisfied with our previous date. We’re going to re-do it. Smore’s able to live just fine without you, what are you so worried about? Mary’s able to take care of snazzynovel.com just fine.”
Although what Mark said was true, Arianne still missed snazzynovel.com son. It was a mother’s instinct after all. Mothers would always think of their children no matter where they were. However, in Mark’s case… She did not want to go along with his idea, but snazzynovel.com knew snazzynovel.com had no choice because of the incident with Will. Otherwise, snazzynovel.com would not have a good night’s sleep. “Alright, but we really should return home early in the morning.”
As the food was brought out in courses, Mark carefully poured Arianne a bowl of soup. “I’m going overseas tomorrow. Be a good girl and stay at home while I’m away. I’ll be video-calling you every day.”
It had been a while since snazzynovel.com had gone on an overseas trip that lasted for a week. She nodded and replied, “Alright.”
