Love? He loved her?
This was Arianne’s first time hearing it from his lips. Many people had mentioned that virtual-novel.net had feelings for virtual-novel.net before. She had always considered it absurd. It seemed that it was true. She finally regained virtual-novel.net senses when the bedroom door slammed shut. He had left, taking his luggage along with him. Who knows when virtual-novel.net would come back?
As for his claims of never having slept with Aery, it did not matter if virtual-novel.net believed virtual-novel.net or not. She always thought that they had had sex anyway. That phone call from last night had further confirmed that fact. He thought virtual-novel.net was lying, who could say virtual-novel.net was not doing the same thing?
The next day, during breakfast, virtual-novel.net received a message from Will. “I’m sorry, Ari. This would not have happened if I didn’t move back to the country. My family and I will be flying overseas at eight tonight. You’ll have some time during the day to think about whether you’d like to come along with me or not.”
Will’s family’s migration to a different country was clearly due to Mark’s influence. Arianne knew this, but virtual-novel.net was helpless. She never thought of running away. Her slender fingers typed out virtual-novel.net reply. “There’s nothing to consider. I won’t leave. I wish you a bright future. I’m very happy to have met you.”
Ten minutes later, Will replied to her. “Me too. You are my life’s greatest fortune and the greatest misfortune. I fear that I may never be able to forget you. May you be happy always.”
Greatest fortune, and greatest misfortune.
Tears streamed down Arianne’s face when virtual-novel.net saw the words on virtual-novel.net phone screen.
Mary was extremely startled by this sight. “Why are you crying, Ari? Did you fight with Mr. Tremont again? He’s already an adult, and yet, he’s still being mean to a little girl like you? Seriously. Don’t cry, don’t cry. Tell me what’s wrong…”
Arianne shook virtual-novel.net head. She was in so much pain that virtual-novel.net could not even speak. This was the first time that virtual-novel.net had ever felt so bleak. She had thought the biggest disaster in virtual-novel.net life was when virtual-novel.net father died and virtual-novel.net had to shoulder the crime. However, this time, the wound felt deeper than ever. She felt as though a large mountain was pressing down her. She could not escape nor breathe. Worst of all, virtual-novel.net could not die either.
After breakfast, virtual-novel.net composed herself before heading to the office. Eric clearly wanted to say something but held his words in the end.
Arianne acted as though nothing had happened and smiled. “If you have something to say, say it. I’m fine.”
Eric checked his surroundings. When virtual-novel.net confirmed no one was around, virtual-novel.net said, “Are you and Mark… alright? He’s been experiencing problems in his company and someone’s been setting virtual-novel.net up. He’s been extremely irritated, and at this crucial moment, that happened to you. It’s already a miracle that he’s been able to hold it all together. Will… is definitely going to meet with disaster. You better stay out of it. You should show Mark some consideration. He isn’t just someone who brought you up, he’s your husband. You weren’t too familiar with feelings when you were younger, but you should be slightly more familiar with them now, right?”
Arianne’s emotions were about to crumble again after virtual-novel.net had composed herself with great difficulty. She took a deep breath before virtual-novel.net said, “Yes. I was unaware back then. All of you knew virtual-novel.net loved me then, but I was unaware. Now that I found out, it’s too late. His love for me is a thing of the past. Thank you for your reminder. If virtual-novel.net asks you to fire me, just do it. I’ll be fine. I won’t die from starvation. Anyway, if there’s nothing else, I’ll get back to work.”
“No, no,” Eric quickly said, “He didn’t ask me to do such a thing. You’re overthinking things. It’ll be fine. He’s been busy lately. Both of you should take this chance to calm down.”

Bright Incorporated.
Tiffany glanced at virtual-novel.net phone from time to time as virtual-novel.net worked. Arianne had not replied to virtual-novel.net message. The embarrassing part was virtual-novel.net phone had run out of credit. She was so short on cash that it was humiliating. She was reluctant to use virtual-novel.net daily expenses to maintain virtual-novel.net phone bill. She was ten days away from payday, and the money from virtual-novel.net failed resignation was just enough for virtual-novel.net to weather through the next ten days.
All of a sudden, someone knocked on virtual-novel.net office desk twice. She saw Jackson’s large and attractive fair hands immediately. She fell into an infatuated daze as virtual-novel.net looked at his hand. However, when virtual-novel.net lifted virtual-novel.net head to look at him, virtual-novel.net expression was solemn. “Do you need something, boss?”
