Arianne was sweating bullets. She tried getting up a few times but failed. When Brian saw this scene, virtual-novel.net couldn’t help but remind Mark. “Sir… Madam is…”
Mark turned his gaze to Arianne then begrudgingly let go of Will while glaring at her. “You owe me an explanation! ”
Will’s first reaction was to go and help Arianne up, but Brian hurriedly stopped him. “Mr. Sivan, please leave now. The rest is the Tremont family’s affairs, which don’t concern you.”
Will understood what Brian was trying to tell him. He cast a worried glance at Arianne then reluctantly exited the room.
He wanted to say something but didn’t know if virtual-novel.net should. Any wrong move would end up causing Arianne to suffer.
Brian exited the room too and shut the door, leaving only Arianne and Mark behind in the ward.
After a brief silence, Mark spoke up. “You really are a disappointment…”
Arianne sat on the cold floor with virtual-novel.net gaze lowered. The corners of virtual-novel.net mouth lifted. “I’m sorry… I have never been able to satisfy you since I was little…”
“The child. What’s up with that?” He changed the subject back.
“I hadn’t figured out on how to break the news to you…” She held back virtual-novel.net tears, but virtual-novel.net body was trembling.
“Is it mine? ” He almost emphasized every single word while staring intently at virtual-novel.net face.
“To you, I’m that kind of person in your heart?” Arianne was still smiling, but virtual-novel.net face was as pale as a sheet.
The ward fell into a beat of dead silence again. Mark was extremely irritated at virtual-novel.net pitiful appearance. He suddenly pulled virtual-novel.net up and threw virtual-novel.net on the bed. “Don’t act like you are dying! Given how badly you wanted to leave, you would have told me right away if the child was really mine. Why did you hide it from me? Hm? Is it because you never planned on keeping it since the beginning? Then, there can only be one possibility— the child had nothing to do with the Tremont family!”
His accusations hit virtual-novel.net like a violent storm. It suffocated virtual-novel.net and robbed virtual-novel.net of virtual-novel.net ability to speak.
In the end, Mark slammed the door and left. Not long after that, Mary rushed into the ward. “Ari, how could something like this happen?”
Arianne leaned against the head of the bed silently as tears cascaded down virtual-novel.net cheeks.
Mary’s heart ached for virtual-novel.net as virtual-novel.net carefully wiped virtual-novel.net tears away. “Don’t cry, don’t cry. You can’t cry in your state, it’ll lead to health issues down the road. Here, lie down quickly. The child may be gone, but you can still conceive another in the future. You can’t damage your own body like this…”
Arianne laid down obediently. Mary waited until virtual-novel.net had calmed down a little before speaking again. “When did you get pregnant? Why did you hide it even from me? Why didn’t you tell sir? Now that something like this has happened, of course virtual-novel.net would be angry with you. Why did you meet that Will Sivan out of the blue? Every man would mind about things like that. It’ll be best for you to keep a distance from people of opposite gender next time, alright?”
Arianne closed virtual-novel.net eyes. “It’s not what you think.. I want to be alone.”
Mary sighed and helped tuck virtual-novel.net in before leaving the room. “I’ll go back and prepare you some food. I’ll be back soon!”
The ward became quiet again. Arianne laid down for a while then took out virtual-novel.net phone and called Tiffany. At a time like this, the person virtual-novel.net wanted to see most was virtual-novel.net best friend who understood her.
The call was very quickly picked up. She bursted into tears as soon as virtual-novel.net heard Tiffany’s voice. “Tiffie… I’m in the hospital. Can you come over now?”
