Mark’s eyes had a meaningful look to them. With that, Arianne had a vague idea of the box’s content. She felt virtual-novel.net face grow hot. She took the box with virtual-novel.net to the bathroom and opened it. She had guessed correctly. It was a very special set of pajamas. To be more precise, it was black silk lingerie. The more virtual-novel.net looked at it, the hotter virtual-novel.net face burned.
Naturally, virtual-novel.net was not bold enough to walk out in just the lingerie. She wore a bathrobe over it, feeling uncomfortable. She had stalled for time in the bathroom, wasting forty minutes in there, before virtual-novel.net finally emerged from the bathroom. If virtual-novel.net were not afraid of incurring Mark’s wrath, virtual-novel.net would have stayed longer in there.
The moment the bathroom door opened, virtual-novel.net met Mark’s gaze. She saw his eyes flashed in anticipation before it vanished immediately as soon as virtual-novel.net saw virtual-novel.net dressed in a bathrobe.
“Take off your bathrobe.”
She shook virtual-novel.net head and refused, “I don’t… I haven’t worn this kind of apparel before, and I feel uncomfortable everywhere. Can’t you turn off the lights first?”
Mark walked toward virtual-novel.net and reached out to raise virtual-novel.net chin. He lowered his eyes to look at virtual-novel.net as virtual-novel.net said, “The lights are staying on tonight. I want to see you.”
At that moment, Arianne could clearly feel virtual-novel.net heartbeat racing. It felt as though virtual-novel.net heart was going to jump out of virtual-novel.net chest.
His eyes were deep and dark like a bottomless abyss, easily sucking virtual-novel.net in. She found it difficult to avert virtual-novel.net gaze. When virtual-novel.net finally regained virtual-novel.net senses, virtual-novel.net had already taken off virtual-novel.net bathrobe. She instinctively raised virtual-novel.net hands to cover virtual-novel.net chest. Alas, virtual-novel.net was quicker and grabbed virtual-novel.net wrists.
He studied virtual-novel.net body as a look of satisfaction flashed in his eyes. “I knew it would look good on you.”
Arianne felt as though virtual-novel.net brains had stopped functioning at that moment. She did not even dare to look in the mirror. Who knew Mark would prepare this beforehand? It was not right to say virtual-novel.net was unromantic after all.
Suddenly, Mark carried and threw virtual-novel.net on the soft bed.
Arianne shrieked, and the next thing virtual-novel.net knew, Mark had already taken off the towel around his waist and pressed himself on top of her. “You look really nice, Ari.” She could feel his breath on her. His gentle voice was slightly hoarse. She felt virtual-novel.net own breath hitched.
She fell into a trance as virtual-novel.net buried his face in virtual-novel.net neck. She could clearly feel his movements, and virtual-novel.net was powerless to stop him. She could only let virtual-novel.net do as virtual-novel.net pleased.
She could tell that tonight was very different from the other night. His emotions, his wildness, each and every move was so passionate it was as though there was no end to it!
All that frenzied passion only ended late morning the next day.
Arianne was not in a hurry to get to work since Mr. Yaleman would only brush it off if virtual-novel.net was late for work. However, it was different for Mark since virtual-novel.net had a plane to catch.
As they hurried back to the Tremont estate, Arianne changed into a fresh set of clothing and rushed off to hug Smore before hailing a cab to the office. After all, Mark would definitely miss his flight if virtual-novel.net had sent virtual-novel.net to the office.
When virtual-novel.net arrived at the office, the scene from the night before began to replay in virtual-novel.net mind. A grin subconsciously bloomed on virtual-novel.net face. When virtual-novel.net regained virtual-novel.net senses, virtual-novel.net quickly adjusted virtual-novel.net expression to one of indifference.
Robin looked at Arianne earnestly and asked. “Arianne, did something good happen to you? You’ve been spacing out from the moment you stepped into the office. You’ve also been grinning to yourself.”
Arianne coughed. “It’s nothing. I… I just recalled some… interesting stuff.”
Robin was a naïve young woman so she, naturally, did not find anything strange with Arianne’s words. “Oh, the samples from before have been done and submitted. Did you receive a present from your husband, Arianne? He should be quite the romantic.”
Arianne started at the mention of a present. The jewelry boxes virtual-novel.net had seen in Mark’s jacket pockets… He did not give them to virtual-novel.net even when they said goodbye that morning. Did virtual-novel.net forget about it? He probably did. He was already in a rush that morning since virtual-novel.net was busy last night…
However, thanks to Robin’s reminder, the boxes were stuck in Arianne’s mind for the rest of the day. The first thing virtual-novel.net did when virtual-novel.net arrived home was to check if Mark had left the boxes behind.
