Arianne suddenly blushed. Why did virtual-novel.net suspect that virtual-novel.net was referring to something else? Was virtual-novel.net making a dirty joke?
In order to dispel the strange atmosphere, virtual-novel.net opened virtual-novel.net mouth and took a bite. With much difficulty, virtual-novel.net swallowed the food. “I can’t take another bite. Can you take it away? The fruits will leave a smell in here.”
Mark’s eyes slightly glazed over while watching virtual-novel.net slightly trembling lips. Then all of a sudden, virtual-novel.net leaned over and kissed virtual-novel.net on the lips.
Arianne could hear virtual-novel.net head ringing. What was virtual-novel.net doing! They still had many unsolved problems between them. Weren’t enemies supposed to be annoyed at the sight of each other? Why was virtual-novel.net kissing her?
“Umph… No…” She tried to resist him. As soon as virtual-novel.net opened virtual-novel.net mouth, virtual-novel.net took advantage of it. He pressed his whole body up against virtual-novel.net to stop virtual-novel.net from struggling. With only a layer of blanket between their bodies, virtual-novel.net couldn’t even budge an inch under him. But of course, virtual-novel.net didn’t put all his weight on her.
She passively endured his behavior, virtual-novel.net mind slowly going blank due to the lack of oxygen. All of a sudden, Rice Ball sprang out of the blanket. “Meow! ”
Mark instantly stiffened and reflexively jumped out of the bed, looking terrified.
Arianne tore the blanket away, picked up Rice Ball, and rushed out of the room with a flushed face. “Mary, change the sheets!”
Mary was confused. “Didn’t we just change them?”
Arianne lowered virtual-novel.net head and whispered, “Rice Ball got into the bed!” Not only that, it was discovered too…
Mary quickly responded, but Mark’s voice suddenly came from upstairs. “No need to change them!” This was followed by the sound of the door being slammed.
The commotion caused Mary to tremble all over as virtual-novel.net helplessly told Arianne, “Ari, you shouldn’t bring Rice Ball into the bedroom since sir doesn’t want it in there. Can’t both of you just live in peace instead of fighting all the time? Give me Rice Ball. It’ll sleep in my room tonight.”
Arianne hesitated a little. “There’s four people living in your room. Are you sure it’s alright for Rice Ball to go in there?”
Mary slapped virtual-novel.net chest and assured her. “Don’t worry! Although there are four people in the room, the room is quite big. There’s still plenty of space. Just go tidy up and rest. You need to take good care of your body.”
Arianne reluctantly handed Rice Ball to Mary. She couldn’t help feeling timid as virtual-novel.net watched Mary leave. Should virtual-novel.net return to the bedroom now? But Mark just slammed the door on her…
The kiss from Mark that came out of the blue left virtual-novel.net so flustered that virtual-novel.net was subconsciously reluctant to return to the bedroom…
All of a sudden, Nina showed up at the top of the stairs. Like a lazy cat, virtual-novel.net rested virtual-novel.net arms on the railing while looking at her. “Do you want me to take you in for tonight? Mark is such a nice guy, but why is virtual-novel.net so mean to you? I’ve never seen virtual-novel.net lose his temper and speak so loudly.”
Really? She’d never seen Mark lose his temper and speak loudly? For some reason, Arianne was relieved by the revelation. Mark would only expose his true self in front of the people virtual-novel.net was close with. This meant Nina was only an outsider to him.
“It’s alright. You can’t possibly ‘take me in’ since this is my home anyway,” Arianne said as virtual-novel.net walked past Nina and headed to the bedroom.
“Do you think you and Mark are good together?” Nina suddenly asked in a soft voice.
“What do you mean?” Arianne stopped in virtual-novel.net tracks and looked at her.
“Hehe, I just think you two make a strange couple. You are the orphan virtual-novel.net took in after your father killed a dozen people from his family. How could virtual-novel.net marry you? Just look a t your background alone, your father was only a private pilot that served the Tremont family. Both of you are of different social standings. I suddenly can’t help but think that girls like you get everything. Although you seem like a frail, harmless girl, you’re actually a rather cunning one.”
Nina spoke very neutrally, but virtual-novel.net words somehow made Arianne feel uncomfortable.
