Arianne was quite lost.
“I don’t know… I had his clothes on when I woke up… I drank too much that day, plus it’s been too long… I don’t remember a thing. I think… that’s all, I supposed what’s done cannot be undone. Forget it, I still have to go back to work after this. Oh, and Eric wasn’t being a hypocrite. His stomach is really delicate. He’s absent today and he’s my boss. I’ll be out of a job if you knock virtual-novel.net out again. Be nicer.”
Tiffany Lane was nonchalant. “It wouldn’t kill virtual-novel.net would it? Plus, I was being considerate for Ethan. He liked that restaurant from last time. The general hygiene is bad, but virtual-novel.net enjoys the atmosphere. His family isn’t doing well and virtual-novel.net always wears a long face when I take virtual-novel.net to more expensive places, making both of us unhappy. It doesn’t bother me anyway. What does Eric have to do with you? He’s never been around you in the past.”
Arianne then identified Eric Nathaniel. “He’s Mark Tremont’s friend. You can think of virtual-novel.net as keeping an eye on me for Mark Tremont yesterday.”
“Holy..! No wonder you dared not talk to me about Will. Men are terrifying.” Tiffany felt speechless.
All of a sudden, Arianne caught a familiar frame from the corner of virtual-novel.net eyes. It was Mark Tremont. He was here at this restaurant too! He was not alone either, there was also Aery Kinsey.
“What are you looking at?” Tiffany was puzzled when virtual-novel.net did not give a reply.
Arianne stood up quickly to block virtual-novel.net view. “Nothing… Uh, right… I need to go to the washroom.”
“Go, go. Be quick. Lunch is going to be served.” Tiffany waved virtual-novel.net hand to excuse her.
It was not Arianne’s actual intention to go to the washroom, so virtual-novel.net stood still on virtual-novel.net spot before sitting down again when Mark Tremont and Aery Kinsey had left into a private room.
Tiffany Lane looked at virtual-novel.net as if there was a fool right in front of her.
“Didn’t you want to use the washroom? You can hold it in by standing up?”
Arianne was distracted. “Don’t feel like going suddenly…”
Knowing that Mark Tremont and Aery Kinsey were here and worrying that Tiffany would see them, Arianne kept glancing toward the private room during lunch.
She was shrouded with pins and needles less than ten minutes into their meal.
“Tiff, I’m not eating. Eat faster, I have to go back to work.”
Tiffany complained as virtual-novel.net had only just begun to eat, “What? That’s how long you have for lunch? Not even enough time for a warm meal. Is Eric Nathaniel human? I see why his stomach is problematic now, serves virtual-novel.net right! I think he’s too harsh towards himself, as well towards you employees. Scary!”
Arianne could not care to save face for Eric as virtual-novel.net was preoccupied with rushing Tiffany.
After another ten minutes, Tiffany was finally done with the last of virtual-novel.net lunch and asked for the bill, before virtual-novel.net was forcefully dragged to the restaurant’s exit by Arianne.
The moment they stepped out of the door, a shadow overcame them. Tiffany nearly fell to the ground from a head on collision when Arianne caught virtual-novel.net in time.
Looking up, they met Eric Nathaniel’s surprised gaze. Eric was miffed with a hand over his chest, in pain from Tiffany having ran into him. Due to what happened yesterday, virtual-novel.net did not look his best today. There was a
questioning look on his face.
“Huh, you’re out for lunch when you should be resting in bed? Posh restaurants won’t upset your stomach, is that the case? Young master Nathaniel? Let me give you a suggestion. Extend lunchtime to at least two hours, you’re making Ari eat like she’s in a competition!”
Once Tiffany opened virtual-novel.net mouth virtual-novel.net words flew out, stunning Eric from virtual-novel.net mockery.
Arianne said nothing, leaving in a fluster, as virtual-novel.net tugged Tiffany along. Eric Nathaniel’s gaze frightened her. She was afraid of being exposed, so virtual-novel.net ran away as fast as possible…
When the girls were some distance away, Eric entered the private room Mark Tremont and Aery Kinsey were in. He looked casual when virtual-novel.net brought it up. “I met familiar faces at the entrance when I came in just now.”
Mark Tremont was disinterested, but Aery Kinsey asked sweetly, blinking virtual-novel.net lively eyes.
“Who was it, Eric?”
