It was proven that virtual-novel.net was wilder than virtual-novel.net imaginations. Unfortunately, someone forgot to close the window, causing Aristotle, who was playing in the courtyard, to question Mary inquisitively.
Mary blushed, unsure of how to explain it to him. “We-well… It’s not that… How could your daddy possibly be hitting your mommy? They’re probably just biting each other’s ears.”
Aristotle’s little face filled with fear. “Can pewple… eat ears?”
Mary was at virtual-novel.net wits’ end. She could only cover Aristotle’s ears. “Let’s go to the kitchen. I’ll make something for you to eat.”
Mark finally fell asleep when the sky grew dark. He had lost a lot of weight and the outline of his face seemed sharper and more prominent. His already long and slender fingers were now boney. Arianne’s heart ached as virtual-novel.net stared at him. Both of them had suffered greatly during this period of time.
By the time virtual-novel.net put on virtual-novel.net clothes and arrived downstairs, Mary had already prepared dinner. “Madam, would you like to eat?” virtual-novel.net asked in a soft voice. “Isn’t Mr. Tremont still asleep?”
Arianne nodded. “Mm, he’s still asleep. Just fallen asleep, in fact. No need to call virtual-novel.net for dinner. Just whip something up when he’s awake. By the way, I’ve heard that he’s developed a cough. Is there any kind of nutritional food to help virtual-novel.net with that?”
“Yes,” Mary replied. “I’ll make it for virtual-novel.net when virtual-novel.net wakes up. Henry says that his lungs developed this cough after being waterlogged. It won’t heal completely, but it’ll probably get better if we give virtual-novel.net the right nutrition.”
Arianne felt bad, but as long as virtual-novel.net was alive, it was good enough for her.
As virtual-novel.net carried Aristotle to the dinner table for dinner, Aristotle suddenly bit virtual-novel.net ear, gently, and it tingled slightly. She felt goosebumps all over. “What are you doing?”
“Da-die bit ma-mie’s ear. Ma-mie was cwying, ” Aristotle explained with a serious look on his face.
The corners of Arianne’s lips twitched. This was a sin… She wasn’t crying!
That night, Arianne finally had a good night’s sleep. It was virtual-novel.net first restful night in months. She clung onto Mark the entire night, refusing to let go, even in virtual-novel.net dreams.
The next morning, when virtual-novel.net woke up, Mark stared at virtual-novel.net in amusement and teased her. “I wouldn’t have realized how much you loved me if I hadn’t almost died. You were even calling out my name in your sleep and held onto me for the entire night.”
Arianne was stubborn and refused to admit it. “I was not… It’s getting late. Get up. Are you going to the office today? You can rest for a while if you’re still tired. I can take care of things for a while.”
Mark’s expression turned serious. “No need. You have a good rest at home. Leave the company to me. There are many things beyond your skills, for example… Seaton S. Bart.”
