Chapter 963 Was It An Accident?

Author: Lemon Flavored Cat
Aristotle seemed more energetic now that his fever was gone. His appetite had returned too. Arianne was relieved. She forced Mark to leave. She couldn’t possibly let the baby’s illness drag the entire family down. It’s not like they had to stay next to him all day.

Meanwhile, in a different hospital, Jackson stayed by Summer’s bedside the entire night. The next morning, he bought lychees and grapes at his mother’s request and peeled them for her. He put the bowl in her hands. “I think, aside from the inconvenience from your bad leg, nothing’s really stopping you from eating. Don’t you have a chauffeur? What happened?”

Summer complained as she ate. “Seriously, my chauffeur has always been a steady driver. It’s been so many years. His wounds are more serious than mine. Go and buy some supplements and pay him a visit later. His injuries are considered work-related, so we’ll pay for whatever’s necessary in the medical bills. Everything was fine when we went out yesterday, but then a car

    Tiffany had just arrived at the office when she received the message and immediately replied: ‘I’ve heard from Jackson that you’ve been in an accident. I was just thinking of coming home to visit you this weekend. I’ll drive home after work this Friday.’The lychee in Summer’s mouth seemed to taste extra sweet once she saw that message. Since Jackson couldn’t go over, then having Tiffany come home would be no different. She happily replied: ‘Okay. Then come straight to my house after arriving home on Friday night. I should be discharged by then. I’ll have delicious food waiting for you. We’ll eat together when you arrive.’Tiffany calculated the time and decided to take the afternoon off on Friday, then go home straight away. Summer was still longing for her after the accident. She couldn’t make her wait that long.Jackson drove to Eric’s home immediately after leaving the hospital. The house was spotless thanks to the housekeeper. Everything was neat and tidy. Eric sat in the livin

    “Yes, there’s one regret,” Eric instantly replied.That’s right, life was full of regrets. In the end, there was no time to fix them all.Suddenly, Jackson turned serious. “Don’t worry. I’ll get her back. My wayward ways have long been drowned by her every twinkle and smile, ever since I met her. I’ve never loved anyone like her. I never thought of marriage until I met her. You go back to your drawing. I’ll take you for a walk around some greenery this weekend. We’ll go somewhere cooling. Don’t forget to leave your sketches to me. I want… something to remember you by.”Eric nodded. “Sure.”…Time was always moving at an inadvertent pace. One always wanted to hold onto it, but at the same time, could only watch as time slipped away. Friday arrived in the blink of an eye. Aristotle was discharged and sent home. He was just as cheerful as ever, blissfully unaware of the big scare that he had just given to Arianne and Mark.Arianne didn’t get to sleep much over the past few days. S

    Davy was suddenly filled with fighting spirit too. He was feeling extremely uplifted. “Okay! The auction will start at 2PM. I’ll make preparations at once!”When they arrived outside the auction venue, Aristotle was fast asleep. Mark told Mary to hold onto him in the car. It would be inappropriate to bring a baby to such a stiff event.His guess was right. Alejandro came too, and he had Jett attend the event. Alejandro waited outside in the car.The auction this time was a clear struggle between two elites and no one else. Mark had given a price that no one else dared to raise, from the very beginning. Only Alejandro’s lackey, Jett, was willing to contend against him. He looked at Jett and continued raising the price, showing no signs of emotion.He wasn’t the impulsive type. If Alejandro, in a bid to release his frustrations, were to raise the price to sky-high rates, then sell it to him, that would undoubtedly prove that he had been cheated. He would give up if the price reached

    Jett paused. “But… I’m afraid that Master Smith may come down here and visit you if this continues…”Alejandro’s eyes flew open. “Are you saying… that the old man might take a trip, all the way here to see me? Looks like his sickness isn’t so bad after all. He’ll probably survive a few more years then. This is so irritating… Are you afraid that he might realize that I’m not the real Alejandro? Actually… Wouldn’t discovering the demise of his last heir to the Smith fortune be the most cruel thing?”Jett was too afraid to expand on the topic. He knew that the real Alejandro was probably dead when he began suspecting this Alejandro. Now, he had confirmation.Jett felt diffident when Alejandro mentioned the words “he’ll probably survive a few more years then. This is so irritating.” This was because Summer had been working hard on getting Tiffany and Jackson back together, so Alejandro had orchestrated a car accident. It wasn’t life-threatening, but the warning seemed too menacing. He w

    Arianne felt helpless at the sight of him in this manner. Only two things worried him now — Eric’s illness and Alejandro. She couldn’t help with Eric’s illness, but there was still a chance with Alejandro. She remembered Tiffany’s friendship with Alejandro and wondered if she could get a breakthrough from there. Perhaps Mark would be in a better mood once the issue on land was settled…Suddenly, Mark grabbed her hand. “Is Mary taking care of Smore? He’s not fussing?”“Mm.” She nodded. “He’s a good boy now. Aren’t you tired? Get some rest. I’m going downstairs. I don’t want to bother you.”He pulled her into his arms and buried himself into the unique fragrance of her breasts. “No, you’ve already disturbed me, so you have to take responsibility.”Arianne sat on his lap, her cheeks flushed. She knew what he wanted to do. It was a rare opportunity for peace and quiet. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him.Just as they were kissing passionately, Mary pushed the door ope

    Tiffany felt troubled. “Oh? You want me to talk to him about that? That’s not a good idea. The last time we had a meal, I told him about my pregnancy. He left without eating a single bite. I haven’t spoken to him in days, and you want me to talk to him about this? I don’t think I can. I had a suspicion that he was interested in me, but now, it’s pretty much confirmed. We’ve stopped talking. I can’t seek him out…”Arianne wasn’t discouraged, despite hearing this. “Fine. It really doesn’t seem like a good idea for you to see him now. I’ll find another way. I want to meet with him. It shouldn’t be a problem for you to set up a meeting for me, right? I’ll speak to him in person.”“Sure.” Tiffany agreed. “Setting a meeting should be fine. I’ll contact him for you later.”Tiffany turned around after ending the call and nearly stumbled into Jackson’s arms. She jumped from fright and stumbled backwards. “How long have you been there?” He couldn’t have heard about her pregnancy, could he?J

    Summer was appeased. “You should have done this long ago. I’ve told you, the relationship between you and Jackson doesn’t matter. This is between us. We should talk more often. Your mother and I agree. Come, sit down. We’ll be eating very soon.”Tiffany nodded. She had just sat down when Jackson walked in. The weather was too hot outside, so there were a few extra droplets of sweat on his smooth forehead. He let out a sigh of relief when he felt the air-conditioning in the house. “Mom, I need a glass of water. Do you have any ice?”“Get it from the kitchen yourself,” Summer said, annoyed. “Get Tiffie a glass of fruit juice while you’re at it. You know what she likes. Make it slightly warm; girls should avoid having too much ice.”Jackson shot Tiffany a begrudging glare, then headed straight into the kitchen.Tiffany was feeling slightly pleased and very grateful at the same time. Summer was so nice to her…Suddenly, Summer eyed her tummy and asked, “Have you been sitting around a

    Jackson blinked a few times before he helplessly rose to his feet. “For the love of God, can’t the two of you just stop? Or must I be out of here to make y’all shush? Let me be clear. You two better not run around like monkeys after dinner so as to not bring me any trouble, you hear?”Watching him relent made Summer and Tiffany exchange smiles. In that split moment, it felt like they were family again.Tiffany was downright voracious. She appeared to have developed particular cravings. She loved every dish Jackson made but rejected anything that was made by the West family’s hired cook. It was moments like these that helped her growing awareness on the evolution of her taste buds and food cravings. Thankfully, it seemed that she was spared from other less pleasant changes pregnancies typically brought.Jackson seized the chance to jab at her. “Well, well, well! Have you been trapped in a closet under the stairs without food for ages?”Tiffany scowled at him. “Excuuuuse me, mistah!

    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
