Mark did not deny it. To him, the environment here was horrible, but as long as Arianne was there with him, he could hang around anywhere.

As they ate, Tiffany asked Jackson suddenly, “I heard that men grow fat when they reach their middle age. They get potbellies. Is that true? Will your abs disappear?”

The corners of Jackson’s lips twitched. “If you keep feeding me things like this, maybe. Under normal circumstances, though, it’ll absolutely never happen to me.”

Tiffany cackled. “Once I think about you becoming a bald greasy middle-aged man with a big pot belly, I can’t stand it. What should I do? Hahaha…”

Jackson felt a headache. “You can’t stand it when you’re laughing like this? I’m going to resist the toll that time will take on me. Even when I’ve reached seventy or eighty years old, I’ll never turn into the image that you described. I’ll stay handsome, from infancy to old age, get that? You women, however, will experience irreversible change after you give birth. That’s not some

    By the time they had gotten Eric to settle down in the hospital, it was past nine at night. With the drips, Eric’s gastritis did not hurt as much, but he looked like he had withered.It was not the first time Mark and Jackson had encountered this situation, so they were in the mood to joke. “You weren’t really here to eat with us, were you? You must have come to extort us.”Eric was pale, looking listless even when he laughed. “I’d love an extortion; are you giving me millions? I’m fine. I probably just need to be hospitalized for a few days. Help me out, get someone to take care of me. I’ll pay for the caretaker; I’m not extorting you guys.”Arianne and Tiffany thought of someone in unison when they heard that Eric was looking for a caretaker. Exchanging a look, they knew that they were thinking about the same person. Arianne suggested, “I have a hardworking girl in my shop, and she’s experienced in taking care of people. Do you want me to introduce her to you? Just take her as a norm

    Mark slowed down his driving, as if he did not want to send her home so soon. “I told you before, I won’t give up on you.”Arianne chuckled humorlessly. “Stop kidding around. I told you before too that it’s impossible between us. I’d wanted to escape from you for a very long time, and now when I finally have my wish granted, why would I jump into the fire pit again? I admit that you’ve made me who I am now. Without you, I wouldn’t be who I am today. You’ve given me what others have never had, but you’ve also hurt me the deepest. What makes you think you have the right to say something like that? You caused my dad’s death, pretended to be benevolent in taking me in, and even married me, and for what? A peace of mind? You got it, but what about me? What about my dad! Other than the title of a sinner, my dad has left nothing behind! What do I have to forgive you?”Various emotions wreaked a storm in Mark’s eyes in the dark. His clear voice was laced with pain forbearance. “Am I that unfor

    Arianne seemed to be in a good mood as she tended to the roses in her hands. “It’s not early anymore. You’re just a little late. Go do what you have to. Tanya’s probably already in the hospital.”Since the bouquet was taken apart, Tiffany did not notice that it used to be a bouquet. She thought that Arianne had specifically bought the flowers to decorate the shop. “I know… You’re a thoughtful one, aren’t you? The flowers look pretty. But with a few of them on each table, they’ll wilt in three days maximum. That’s a high cost. You don’t mind it?”Arianne smiled without saying anything. She did not have to spend anything for these flowers anyway. Most of the roses that were left after distributing them on the tables were placed in the vase at the counter.She suddenly recalled Mark’s “See you tomorrow” last night. How would he make his appearance today? Would he really be making an appearance?A swiftly moving figure at the door reeled Arianne back to reality. It was Naya’s mother-in-law

    The old woman was furious, accusing all of them of the same fault. “Birds of a feather flock together, you’re all nasty people!”Tiffany cursed while glaring at her, “Who are you scolding? Are you asking for a beating, you old hag! If it weren’t for Naya, I’d have given you a big slap!”Naya broke out in tears from her rage. With red-rimmed eyes, she got her phone out to make a call, sounding like she was calling her husband. “Where are you? Your mother’s causing a scene in the shop I work at. Are you settling this? Don’t tell me that you’re busy and can’t leave. If you don’t come today, we can end this marriage right here, right now. I can’t take this anymore!”Seeing that Naya was complaining to her son, the old woman stepped forward to grab her phone. “How dare you complain to him right in front of me? Your mother didn’t teach you well, did she? You uncivilized brat!”During the grappling, Naya’s phone fell to the floor and was stepped on, shattering the device’s screen.Arianne, Ti

    Tiffany removed the ‘Closed’ sign hanging at the door. “Don’t say that. We’re friends, and friends never feel that way. Your husband is still a reasonable person, but that old lady is really something else. If she wants to monopolize her son, then she shouldn’t have let him get married. Seeing how badly you’ve been bullied just beats me down! You should really discuss with your husband about moving out along with your child. The two elderly ones still look healthy, so you don’t have to worry until they are too old to move around.”Naya heaved a sigh of relief, as if a burden had just been lifted from her. “If this incident hadn’t happened, I might not have made up my mind to do it for fear that my husband would be put on the spot. It’s good that the old woman made a fuss today. At least, now I can justify my reason for moving out. To be honest, my marriage has been great. I’m just physically and mentally exhausted by my toxic parents-in-law.”When Naya went off to pick up her kid in

    When he got in the car, he realized that Arianne had chosen to sit in the passenger seat this time. He didn’t set off in a hurry and just turned the air-conditioning to the max, then tried to start a conversation. Perhaps even he himself didn’t even notice how cautiously he was acting. “Can you fall asleep this early?”Arianne gave him a small smile. “I’ll be tired enough to sleep after cleaning up the house and taking a bath. Truth be told, I’m already sleepy now. I’m pretty much exhausted every day. You’re using your brain to make money, but I’m doing physical labor.”Mark paused for a moment. “Actually, you can use your brain too…”Arianne tried to joke with him. “Use my brain to be a Mrs. Tremont and rely on you to support me? Surely you jest. You know that I don’t like relying on someone else’s support. Mark, I’ve thought about it. Jackson and Tiffie may get married. Given your close relationship with him, I’m sure we’ll be running into each other quite often. I can’t hate you

    His silence prompted Arianne to question him with her red-rimmed eyes. “Why aren’t you speaking? Are you lying? You’re lying! How did Rice Ball die? It’s gone already, so can’t you just tell me the truth?”Mark snuffed out the cigarette then lifted his gaze. “I didn’t lie to you. Henry called me after you got out of the car. You can call him yourself if you don’t believe me. I have no reason to deceive you. I admit that I’m at fault for not taking care of it more meticulously.”Arianne stood leaning against the wall as tears tumbled down her cheeks, looking like a little girl who had just lost something beloved to her. Only crying could ease her emotions. “You never liked it from the beginning; you loathed it! It was your fault for not allowing me to take it away! Why do you have to deprive me of everything I like? It was only a cat! It may be a nasty cat in your eyes, but it was very important to me!”She didn’t notice that Mark, who hadn’t smoked in front of her for a long time, l

    Dick never knew Ellie had such an opinion of Arianne. He didn’t dare to make any remarks too, however, since this was the boss’ private matter.Ellie looked down on Dick even more for being too timid to even speak his mind and just left with a glass of water.In the office, Mark gave Butler Henry a call and told him how to deal with Rice Ball’s funeral. He didn’t want this matter to create more trouble between him and Arianne, so he’d try his best to do whatever he could.In the apartment, Arianne heard a knock on the door as soon as she was woken up by the alarm clock. Her memory was fuzzy, and she couldn’t even remember how she went back to bed. When she passed by the living room, she noticed a neatly folded thin blanket on the sofa. Although it showed no signs of being used, she had a hunch that Mark didn’t leave last night.She opened the door, only to be greeted by a bouquet so huge that it nearly hid half of the delivery guy’s body behind it.

    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
