Mark seemed pretty free in the afternoon, so he didn’t go out, but sat on the sofa, working on his laptop.

Arianne yawned incessantly. She couldn’t help but try to find a topic to talk about so that she could stay awake. Somehow, she ended up slipping into the matter that Charles had previously talked about. “Do you really have a younger brother?”

Mark’s hand stiffened. His expression turned gloomy. “Do you think that’s possible? If that were true, he would have come knocking on the door for a share of the family fortune long ago.”

Realizing that she had put her foot in her mouth, she was now too afraid to say anything more. Drowsiness was slowly taking over when her phone suddenly received a message: ‘I’m in Jolague City.’

Jolague City was the city that she and Mark were currently visiting. Who sent that message? How did they know that she was here?

Her heart raced. After lining up all possibilities, she came up with a bold guess. The person behind that number was Will...

    “He’s pretty nice. At least, no one can spot his flaws.” Arianne lowered her gaze to her fingers when she said that.“True… Everyone thinks he’s nice, but I hope he genuinely treats you well too.” The inexplicable sadness in Will’s words made Arianne hang her head even lower.She could feel the heaviness of this topic and she just had to change the subject. “Do you already know what happened to Tiffie’s family? There’s nothing I can do…”Will nodded. “Yeah, I do. I can’t do anything either. The amount is simply too huge. All their family’s properties will be seized within half a month to repay the debt. Taking out bank loans and other things, the only debt left is… what they owe Mark Tremont. My estimation is that there’s still at least a million dollars’ worth of debt that they won’t be able to pay. It all depends on how Mark Tremont will handle it. Based on his personality, I don’t think he will resort to violence. But even if they are going to slowly pay it off, it’s going to be

    The intention behind her teasing words couldn’t be more obvious.A look of irritation appeared in Mark’s eyes instead. He stood up and walked to the window. “You may leave now.”Aery was taken aback but was unwilling to give up. “What? Mark dear… I rushed here last night and only met you today. Aww, how can you send me away so soon?”“Don’t make me say it twice.” He didn’t look at the woman on the bed. The irritation in his eyes gradually turned into anger.Aery had no choice but to get up and leave.She cursed under breath a thousand times when she thought of the text message that Mark had received. Although she didn’t know the content of the message, it was very obvious that it was the root cause. Which stupid person ruined her great moment?!The next day at noon, Mark invited Charles Moran to have lunch at the same restaurant they dined in previously.When Charles arrived and realized that Arianne was nowhere in sight, he asked Mark with a smile, “Where’s Arianne?”Mark conc

    The patient’s family member handed over an old and dirty-looking thermos that only god knew how long they’d used it for. “Here, you can have this.”Tiffany, disgusted, didn’t accept it. “Since you have your own thermos, couldn’t you go refill it yourself? Are you that stupid?”When the other family members of the patient heard the insult, all of them stood up fiercely. “Who are you calling stupid?! It’s just a thermos. So what if we broke it? We’ll just replace it for you. Do you have to keep harping on it?!”Having lived the life of a rich wife for her entire life, Lillian Lane had never encountered people like them. She quickly walked up and pushed Tiffany behind her. “It’s okay, Tiffie. Just go and buy a new one. Don’t make so much noise and disturb your father’s rest.”Tiffany shot a glare at the other family, then stormed off and slammed the door behind her. She looked like she had the words ‘fuck off’ written all over her face right now. Whoever got in her way would be an unl

    Jackson West smiled wryly. “No, I know his daughter though.”The nurse instantly felt as though her future husband had been snatched by someone else. In her voice was a hint of disappointment that she couldn’t hide. “Uh… alright, I’ll settle that for you.”At the Tremont Estate, Arianne gathered all the money she had and put her paintings on sale on the Internet. Unfortunately, selling paintings wasn’t a form of stable income, so she suddenly regretted that she had resigned so hastily back then. She had not expected such misfortune to befall on the Lane family. Without a stable income, it was difficult for her to even make a small contribution.She transferred whatever money she had to Tiffany first. Afraid that Tiffany would refuse her good will, she even sent a reminder to her—‘We can overcome this ordeal together. You’re not alone in this, there’s still me and Will. Don’t be stubborn at a time like this.’When Tiffany received the money and text, she finally broke down in tears.

    Thinking up to this point, she went to the end of the corridor and called Ethan. The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up. Ethan answered indifferently. “What’s up?”Tiffany didn’t really care about his attitude anymore. She could accept someone who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. “Thank you.”Ethan was glued to his computer screen and didn’t really pay any attention to her words. “For what?”Her lips curled into a smile. “Stop pretending. It was you who donated money to my dad, right? Why did you choose to remain anonymous? I’m sorry for making you feel lonely lately. There’s just so much going on with my family now. Don’t be mad at me. I’ll find you when I’m free.”Ethan frowned. He wanted to deny it but didn’t say the words that reached his lips. His attention was on his computer, and he didn’t feel like explaining himself. “I’m busy, I’ll hang up now.”......It was after midnight by the time Mark returned to Tremont Estate, and Arianne was alrea

    While they were in the middle of the conversation, the ward’s door pushed open. Tiffany coughed twice and tugged at the hem of Arianne’s blouse.Turning around, Arianne’s eyes met with Will Sivan’s gentle eyes. “Oh, you’re here too.”It was only a simple greeting, yet there were too many hidden emotions buried underneath.Will deposited the supplements he bought on the bedside table. “I’m here to visit uncle. I didn’t expect you to be here as well. The environment here… isn’t very good. Tiffie, why are you not transferring him to the private ward?”As soon as Will said that, the family members of the patient who had a conflict with Tiffany yesterday sneered. “A private ward? They’re still knee-deep in debt…”Tiffany smacked her chest, then drew the privacy curtains close. “Just a bunch of dogs. Ignore them.”One of the family members pulled the curtains open and shouted, “Who are you calling a dog? You have no manners! No wonder why your factory has gone bankrupt. What’s the use

    Tiffany bit her spoon, looking like a deer in the headlights. She shifted her gaze between Will and Arianne, then chose to remain silent. This wasn’t something she could solve.Will frowned at her. “How did you know I was here?”Wendy smiled and took a seat beside him. “Would you believe me if I told you I was just passing by?”Will didn’t say anything, but Arianne spoke up instead. “Have you eaten yet? If you don’t mind, you can join us.”Wendy threw a smile at her then ordered the waiter to bring her a plate and a set of cutlery. “You all don’t have any plans after lunch right? I’m thinking of shopping with Will. Would you girls like to join?”Arianne was the first to answer her. “I have to continue with my job hunt later.”“I gotta return to the hospital and take care of my dad. You two just go enjoy!” Tiffany quickly followed.A look of pity appeared on Wendy’s face. “Alright, guess it’s just Will and I then.”Shortly after that, Will set his cutlery down. “I’m done.”Whil

    Tiffany could tell that Arianne was forcing herself to say all that but didn’t choose to expose her. “Now I feel like Mark is really treating you badly. You two have been married for three years now, yet he’s never even bought you a ring. The right people can’t end up together, and the wrong people get bound to each other tightly. Who exactly is the one being tortured here?”Arianne didn’t continue the conversation. They parted ways, and as soon as she got home, she posted her resume on the Internet. If there was a choice, she didn’t want a job that required her to go around places. Her work experience so far had yet to groom her into an outgoing person. Now that she thought about it, she found her own personality to be ridiculous, considering the fact that she had grown up with someone like Mark Tremont.Mark didn’t return home again tonight. Arianne was left eating alone on a table full of dishes. “Mary, don’t cook so many dishes next time if Mark isn’t coming home. I can’t finish

    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
