Chapter 1064 I Have A Very Specific Set of Skills

Author: Lemon Flavored Cat
Jackson nodded and pulled her back to their table, beckoning her to finish her meal while he swept his troubles under his mental rug.

He regretted mentioning Ethan’s name and frightening Tiffany like that. To be fair, he had not at all expected her to take it so badly—and now he wished he could tell her with absolute conviction that Ethan died in South Africa. But things always refused to go as smoothly as one hoped.

The weekend came. Jackson sent Tiffany away to Lilian’s place for the day and promised to come back for her at night. Then, he went straight to the Tremont Estate.

He recounted everything he knew up to this point to Mark, who, for his part, took some time to comb through the information before saying, “It’s not that hard to find out whether Alejandro Smith is or isn’t Ethan Connors—we just need to do a DNA analysis. He’s currently staying in a hospital, right? That makes it easier to get a hold of his blood sample.”

“What if he is, without a doubt, Ethan?” Jackson demu

    The Chief Nurse was just as helpless. “What can we do? Does anyone from the Smith family look like someone we can go up against? Urgh, just extract another blood sample from that patient.”Jett caught up with the nurse and bumped into her before swapping the blood sample in her pocket with the one he had swiped earlier. “Excuse me.”The nurse rummaged through her pocket out of habit before drawing out a sigh of relief at finding the sample intact.Jett stood still at his spot and waited until the nurse was farther away. He only resumed following her after she turned into another corner.He watched the nurse pass the sample to Jackson and quickly hurried back to Alajendro’s ward. “Mr. Smith, Jackson sent that nurse, who gave him the blood sample. I’ve switched out your blood with another sample before she could get it to him without the nurse noticing.”Alejandro’s mien turned icy, muttering, “Suspecting me already, huh? That’s sooner than I thought. What went wrong? They shouldn

    “Do you hope that Alejandro is really Ethan?” Arianne suddenly asked.Mark fell silent, slightly unsure of what she meant when she asked him this question.Having received no reply, she did not continue her question. “I’m going to check on Smore. You should get an early night.”Mark returned to his senses when he heard the room door close. Tonight, he had been abandoned once again. Ever since Aristotle’s arrival, his presence had been relegated into extra space in the house. Even Mary seemed more important than him. At least, Arianne would ask Mary about Aristotle after work every day, and he wasn’t of any use at all! The weekend had finally arrived and Arianne was still the same, her world revolving around Aristotle.A tinge of jealousy rose from within Mark’s heart. How could he possibly sleep in peace now? In the past, he could always call Eric and Jackson to go out for a drink with him. Now, however, Eric was gone and Jackson was busy taking care of the pregnant Tiffany. He had

    She could feel his alcoholic breath drawing closer and closer towards her. She turned her head to the said. “What are you doing? Go to sleep if you’re drunk. I’m tired…”He suddenly caught her chin and forced her to look straight at him. Neither of them could see each other’s expressions clearly. Arianne’s heart was still racing. Every time she tried to leave, he would tighten his hold on her. She was left with no choice but to submit to his will. She did not want to show up at work on Monday with bruises.Her soft lips were sealed. Her mind was muddled by the alcohol in his breath. Actually, he was still the same Mark, but for the fact that he had tried his best to put on a face that she liked in front of her. She didn’t know what she did to draw his ire. Was she not supposed to ask that question, or was she not supposed to snatch his liquor glass away?Finally, he broke away. She heaved large, labored breaths to take in some fresh air. She was close to suffocation. Kisses were sup

    She strode forward, acting as if nothing had happened, opened his collar, and checked. One look at it and she jumped in fright. For some reason, the area around her bite now had a red, swollen bite mark. It was a ghastly sight.She returned to her senses and asked, “Maybe you should put some medication on that? It’s all red. Your skin must be overly sensitive…”Mark stared at her flirtatiously. “No need, it’ll get better on its own. My skin isn’t usually that sensitive, but it becomes sensitive after alcohol and getting bitten… It’ll be fine tomorrow.”Jackson immediately understood, guessing, “You two have gone overboard with your games…”Arianne blushed. “What are you saying…”Tiffany’s laughter was the most abrupt of all. “Stop pretending. Your pretense only confirms it. We’re all adults here. There’s nothing wrong with some dirty talk, haha…”Jackson changed the topic with a straight face, saying, “By the way, Mark, I have something to do tomorrow morning. Could you take Tiff

    Arianne pretended to play with Aristotle. “It must be something work-related. Mark is used to discussing business in the study. Men have a lot of bad habits that will never change. We’ll just have to get used to it.”Tiffany curled her lips. “You’re right. Hey, your husband is taking me to work tomorrow. Are you jealous?”Arianne smiled helplessly. “Why should I be jealous? Of you? A pregnant lady? Of course not. I’d be enraged if it were any other woman, but you? Even if Mark himself drove the car, I’d let you sit in the front seat, no worries… We’re best friends, aren’t we?”Tiffany suddenly peered sneakily towards the staircase and lowered her voice. “Ari, Jackson suddenly asked me a question while we were eating at a restaurant once. He asked if I’d be affected if Ethan came back. Even though he explained that he was trying to figure out if my first love would be unforgettable, it still didn’t feel right. He knows what Ethan has done to me, and he’s never mentioned Ethan in fron

    Mark stared at her with a half smile on his face. “Would you like me to take a vaccine too?”The corners of her lips twitched. “Are you really going to treat me like a cat? You’re the one that scared me first! Who told you to drink and fly into a drunken rage?”He looked completely innocent. “When did I go into a drunken rage? I was showing my displeasure. I’ve mentioned it to you before, but you didn’t care about the problem! How could I possibly get drunk with that amount of alcohol? I’ve already mentioned your constant neglect towards me, more than once.”Arianne was immediately rendered speechless. It’s true, he had mentioned it, but she didn’t really pay much attention to it. He had always held a lofty and resolute presence in her eyes. He was loathed to receive anyone’s consoling and also loathed receiving value. He clearly looked down on everyone from the top of the world, but he actually needed her attention?She sighed. “Fine, I won’t do it again. I never thought that you

    He told Mark about the results of the report, but Mark seemed skeptical. It could be that Mark had been mentally prepared to find out that Alejandro was actually Ethan, hence the skepticism when he heard of the test results.After thinking about it for a while, Jackson contacted the nurse that had helped him to obtain the blood samples and said, “Did anything happen while you were helping me retrieve the blood samples?”The nurse replied after a moment, “Yes, a man bumped into me. He was a tall man with a slender figure, quite handsome, who is normally with Alejandro. But the blood sample was still in my pocket when I reached out and felt it. I don’t suppose there could be something wrong? Why did you ask me to get Alejandro’s blood sample? Now that I’ve done it for you, shouldn’t you be buying me dinner?”Jackson was dumbfounded. There was no way he could buy her a meal; he was handling some serious business, not courting ladies. “It’s nothing important. Remember, you mustn't tell

    After a moment, Don Smith put down the folder and looked at Mark without batting an eyelid. “Mr. Tremont, what’s the meaning of this? I don’t know this man. Who is he to you?”Mark casually tapped on the table with his long fingernail, but his eyes flashed a hint of coldness. His thin lips raised as he spoke. “My father’s bastard.”Don Smith’s heart throbbed in pain as he got slightly agitated, but he retained a straight face and ignored the pain to not prevent any slip ups. “So, this Ethan Connor… He’s your family? Never would I expect that the Tremonts would have a bastard in this area. You would probably know why he disappeared in South Africa, wouldn’t you? Are you… suspecting that he’s alive and has returned here?”Mark snorted emotionlessly. “I’ve recently learned that your grandson, Alejandro, was with Ethan at the same location and had an incident at the same time as well. I never knew that it was public knowledge that Alejandro was a cripple, but now, it seems like there ha

    Arianne had not heard that name for so long, she had to reel back in bemusement for a few seconds before finally remembering her face.Shelly-Ann Leigh… She must have spent all those years in the mental institution, right? God knows if the woman’s hair was now grey and white all over.When someone was near death, one could stand to forgive all of the history between them—even the dark ones, even if the ledger was brimming—for good. So, Arianne replied, “I’ll go with you. No matter what happened, she’s still your mother.”Mark did not expect that answer from her at all. In his surprise, he bent down and left a kiss on her lips. “I knew I picked the right woman as my wife. I thought you wouldn’t agree to let me accompany her for the last of her days…”Arianne replied nothing. She was not so obtuse that she would try to win over a woman whose days were numbered. No matter how much of an a**hole Shelly was, Arianne was still the one who came out on top. That victory was all she needed.

    Arianne sneered. “You confused, little thing. I wouldn’t be daft enough to anger the mother of the man I like if I were you, girl. I would especially not say anything as low IQ as that, too. Let me be completely frank with you: no one who bears the surname of Leigh will ever get the better of me—the last one failed. Hard. I can guarantee that you’ll leave us in the span of three days. If I lose, you can stay here forever. Wanna bet? I dare you.”She left her threat hanging at that and turned her wheelchair away, leaving the scorned young woman behind.Rage came out of Raven as waves of quakes all over her body. She was lurching close to hyperventilation, but right before it became impossible to stop, she came around and battled herself to calm down. She had a feeling that even if she fainted right there and then, no one would discover her, would they?Now that Arianne and Mark had returned, the Tremont Estate had recovered its vivacity and life. It had become merry.And Raven Leigh

    Melissa was the type who always pushed things to go as festive as logically possible. She leaped to her feet and raised her cup, “Yo, everyone! Let’s toast to Cindy becoming my cousin-in-law!”The crowd answered enthusiastically with their cups in the air and a roar—except Raven, who remained seated. “I have a sickly constitution. I can’t drink. I’m sorry.”Her smile was so mechanical, her face too ashen. Something flickered in Arianne’s eyes before she replied, “Sure.”After the revelry faded, Arianne steered her wheelchair to the courtyard. The outward appearance of the Tremont Estate seemed to have frozen in time, which was why being here made her feel so… safe.Of course, that was despite Henry and Mary’s passing. In the end, time passed and things changed, characters and objects came and went, and all these missing years left lingering regrets in their wake.Arianne espied the silhouette standing alone at a distance and approached her, sighing, “Nothing beats being home.”Ra

    Arianne grabbed the two beauties by the hands and smiled. “Thank you! Gosh, to me… it’s like you two have grown older in the blink of an eye! How gorgeous the two of you are! Cindy, where’s your brother? Plato hasn’t come home yet?”Mentioning the name of her dear brother made Cynthia pout. “He said he was coming home half a month ago—that’s what he said. Who knows what he’s actually doing, though? Anyway, who cares about that no-good. He’s always like this anyway. Oh, um, the weather is quite hot. We should probably get inside.”Arianne nodded and shot a brief, uneasy look at Aristotle. Not once did he look like he wanted to talk to her… Could the boy be counting his grievances in his mind? Mark and Arianne had stayed in Switzerland for so long; life must have been hard for him all alone.It took until she reached the living room to finally notice Raven. “Millie, is this your younger sister?”Melissa quickly sprung to correct her. “What? Noooo. This is Ares’ classmate or something

    Aristotle’s entire being stilled.He had waited for this news for nineteen years. As time passed, the flames died little by little, the heart grew more numb, until the very thought of it was no different from a pipe dream. But today, news of it coming true reached him and plunged him into a torrent of feelings.A long while later, he finally muttered under his breath, “When… When will they be back?”Jackson closed the distance between them and gave the young man a light, comforting pat on the shoulders. “Not so soon, I bet; not when your mother has just woken up and is in need of some time to recover. She did sleep for nineteen years, you know. So maybe after she’s recuperated enough for a while…” he answered. “We’ve waited for nineteen years for this, right? What’s waiting for just a little bit more compared to that? The most important thing for you to do is to manage the company to the best of your abilities. That’s the way to not disappoint your father’s expectation.”Aristotle

    Cynthia had never had a relationship before, so she did not know what love was. However, one thing was for certain. She loved the feeling of being with Aristotle and how he had protected her since they were kids. Even though Aristotle had become a little domineering and “naughty”, she was not taken aback by him. Instead, she even felt a little moved, which was amazing.It wasn’t known how they ended up in bed, with their breaths synchronized. Apart from the final step, they had done just about everything else that could be done.Just as they were about to hit the final step, Aristotle suddenly stopped and helped pull the covers over Cynthia. “Let’s sleep, good night.”Cynthia was still lost in a daze from before. She did not know why Aristotle had suddenly stopped, nor did she have the courage to ask him. She had struggled for so long before having persuaded herself to go with the flow…The next day, when Cynthia woke up, Aristotle had already long gone to his company.She took a

    Cynthia heard what Aristotle said, but her hands did not stop doing what they were doing. Her head was in a complete mess. “There’s no… no need. I’ll be able to be done with these now. Go ahead and get some sleep first. By the way, where am I sleeping tonight? There are so many rooms here, I’ll ask Agnes to help me clear one up.”Aristotle walked up to her and squatted. He grabbed onto her arm with one hand while the other closed the luggage. “Just sleep with me here and stop tidying already.”Cynthia suspected that she might have misheard. She took a look at the big bed behind him in a daze and suddenly felt her palm, which was held by him, burning up. “Y… You’re kidding, aren’t you, Ares? Although we used to sleep with each other a lot when we were kids, we’re all grown ups now, so wouldn’t that be a little inappropriate?”Aristotle said with a straight face, “I wasn't joking.”Cynthia panicked a little and recalled Melissa’s words once again. ‘Would Ares, whom I’ve known for so

    Melissa knew that Aristotle had kissed Cynthia, so she knew what was going on. Hence, she very naturally boasted, “Of course, they’ve been engaged to each other since they were born. Coincidentally, the both of them felt the same way about each other as they grew up, so wouldn’t this make it even better? From the way I see it, your illness isn’t going to recover for the rest of your life and the both of them are probably going to have to wait until Cindy graduates before they get married. So, you’d be better off moving back to France as early as possible. Don’t worry, you’ve saved Aristotle’s life before, so he wouldn’t be stingy with you financially.”Raven wanted to control the unhappiness she had in her heart very much, but her emotions refused to follow her will. Hence, she fiercely struggled to wring free from Melissa’s grasp. Melissa was startled for a moment. “Are you crazy?”After that, Raven regained her senses and took a deep breath. “I’m sorry… I was a little unwell just n

    ‘You’re not that worried?’ Melissa was so furious that she laughed. “Am I the only one who’s being worried for nothing? I thought you loved my brother, didn’t you? The man you’ve been dreaming of every day has returned from France but brought a woman with him, yet you’re actually not that worried? Let’s put aside your parents’ intentions for a moment. Do you dare to say that you don’t love him? I’m only helping you because you’re my best friend, so could you not be so relaxed, as if I’m helping you for no reason?”Cynthia shook her head and lowered her volume as she said, “He… might have confessed to me. We also… did that already. So, I think he doesn’t feel that way towards Raven. It’s purely because she saved his life once. I trust that Ares will be able to handle the situation properly.”Melissa’s eyes opened wide. “What? He’s only returned for a few days, yet the two of you have already had sex? That fast?! I never knew it, but you’ve really got it in you!”Cynthia’s face flushe
