Chapter10

Penulis: Sixth Month
When they submitted the assignment, the tutor wore a deriding smirk looking at her drawing.

“You drew Mark Tremont huh? You usually act reserved, but now it seems that you’re just like most girls. A few of them drew him as well but yours is the best. You have a photo? Share it.”

The tutor was a woman nearing her thirties. Unmarried, ill-tempered, and infatuated with Mark Tremont, she babbled about him with the other students every day.

Arianne Wynn shook her head. “I don’t have a photo…”

The tutor’s face fell.

“But you drew him so well? All based on imagination? Have you met him in person? Be a good sport, show me the photo. Your drawing… it looks like he’s just sitting around at home? The internet doesn’t have photos like this. Where did you get it from?”

Tiffany Lane could no longer hold herself back.

“What’s the fuss now? She’s said that she’s got no photo, that’s it. Her drawing skills have always been great, don’t you know your own students?”

Faced against students of significant family backgrounds and power like Tiffany Lane, the tutor would always think twice before acting. “Alright, alright. I know she’s under your wing. I don’t want no photo, okay?”

“How did you do it? You’ve never met Mark Tremont, have you? I’ve seen him once, in a banquet. I thought that you were different from the others. I see that you fantasize about the nation’s ideal man too, hehe…” Tiffany asked Arianne after class.

Habitually quiet, Arianne had no fantasy for Mark Tremont. What could she be imagining when they stayed under the same roof every day? She could draw him perfectly because that was how deeply rooted he was in her mind. She could probably never escape from the dread that he brought to her entire life.

“Ari, I heard that Mark Tremont is coming to our campus event this year. It’s not strange though. He’s contributed a lot to the school. It’s reasonable that the school invites him,” Tiffany spoke having long been accustomed to Arianne’s reticence.

The campus event was held every semester before the campus proceeded winter and summer breaks. It was nothing but some boring programs and a talk the school arranged.

There were twenty-one more days until the campus event. Mark Tremont would already be back from his business trip then.

“Ari, we don’t have any classes in the afternoon. Let’s hang out. I’ll take you ice-skating. There’s a new ice-skating rink. The ski field is too far away, I’ll take you there during the holidays,” Tiffany quickly suggested when she saw that Arianne was packing her things, looking like she was about to leave.

There was a frown between Arianne’s brows. She was worried about Mark Tremont coming home out of the blue again. If she was caught not home once more, she did not think that she would be forgiven so easily.

“What do you say? Let’s go huh, let’s go.” Tiffany swung her arm in a cutesy manner.

Arianne shook her head helplessly. “Can’t go, I need to go home.”

Tiffany clung to her arm stubbornly. “Why are you hurrying home every day? Is your family that strict? Is your brother going to bite you?”

“Mm.” Arianne made a hum. Mark Tremont would actually swallow her whole.

Tiffany Lane was speechless, incredibly curious about her brother. Witnessing how serious Arianne was, however, she could only let go of her arm and let her leave, not wanting to put her in a dilemma.

Leaving the campus, Arianne’s bicycle chain popped off suddenly before she even made it halfway through her journey.

She did not know how to fix it, only able to plod on and push the bicycle. Heavy snow fell again. Her hands, which were not taken care of, were already cracked from the cold, while her cheeks were flushed red from the icy gale.

The sky had darkened when Arianne arrived home. The nightfall enveloped the Tremont Estate’s lavish outline yet was unable to conceal its magnificence. Mark Tremont cherished peace and quiet, so the location was fairly far from the Southline University. However, without a bike to ride, Arianne had suffered.

Entering the door, Mary hauled her into the nanny's room and warmed her up by switching on the heater.

“What’s up with you? Why are you back so late and freezing cold too? If you find it hard to talk to sir, I’ll go on your behalf. You don’t even have any thicker clothes.”

Arianne Wynn rubbed her hands that were numb from the cold together and replied faintly, “He’s given me money. I didn’t spend it.”

She would have felt wrongly to have spent that money…

Mary poked her forehead grudgingly. “He’s given you money, you refuse to use it. What are you being stubborn about? So many years have passed since that incident. Sir isn’t treating you badly, why are you the one dwelling instead? Sir’s back today and you’re back so late again. He’ll surely be after you!”

Mark Tremont’s back?!

    Mark walked closer toward her again, reached out, and pinched Aristotle’s ear. “I wanted to create a perfect and romantic atmosphere too, but your body was very honest. You refused to show any reaction at all, no matter how much I tried to entice you. What does that mean? It means that you weren’t in the mood for our date at all.”Arianne was indignant from his false accusation. “It’s because you had such a sullen face for the entire night. I panicked. How could I possibly have the mood for anything else? You made it look like I was actually in the wrong. You’re unreasonable and petty! I wasn’t sickened with you when I came back from seeing Aery, was I? So you’re upset, just because I accidentally ran into Will?”Aristotle pulled Mark’s hand away in protest, and Mark did not continue their conversation. “Come downstairs for breakfast when you’re done with feeding him. I’ll take you to the office later.”On the way to the office, Tiffany sent Arianne an ill-timed message: ‘How was la

    Arianne felt a kind of emptiness deep down. Their relationship may look like it’s going strong on the surface, but in reality, it was still fragile. Based on everything that had happened today, it was clear.She fell fast asleep before Mark emerged from the bathroom, probably because it was easier to fall asleep in the dark.After an unknown amount of time, she felt something move next to her. She opened her eyes, just a little bit, and found Mark looking through her phone. She pretended not to know, hoping that this would bring him some form of assurance. He was probably trying to confirm if she had saved Will’s contact details. Luckily, she hadn’t…Arianne woke up before sunrise the next day because she had gone to bed early. Mark was still fast asleep. She silently got up and took a shower. She longed for Aristotle. This was her first time spending the night away from home since Aristotle’s birth.She stepped out of the bathroom, absent-mindedly after her shower. She jumped with

    The woman stayed in her spot, holding the baby. She was feeling slightly humiliated but mostly helpless. She knew that she could never replace Arianne in Will’s heart in this lifetime, not even when she and Will had already had a baby. This was a tragic fact.Arianne let out a long sigh of relief after leaving the shopping mall. The cold winds refreshed her emotions. It was almost time, and Mark would be reaching soon.She sent him a message to tell him that she was at the shopping mall entrance. His car soon arrived on the street across the road from her. She opened the car door and got into the car. The warm air in the car cut off the chill from outside. She smoothed her hair, which had been messed up because of the wind. “Where are we going for dinner?”Mark didn’t reply, so she turned around and looked at him. “What’s wrong?”He stared at the rearview mirror with an expressionless face. “When did Will Sivan come back?”She was taken aback, then realized that Will was at a dist

    Arianne’s heart exploded from cuteness. She finally understood why Mark wanted a daughter. The joy of having a daughter was completely different from having a son.“Pumpkin, where did you go? Come back to daddy.”Arianne stiffened. She turned to the side and found Will Sivan’s astonished gaze. Everything had changed in time, but they still looked the same, save for a sense of maturity throughout the years.She jumped in fright when she heard his voice. She thought that his voice sounded more like a stranger’s. She never expected such a coincidence…“When… did you come back?” She got up and asked calmly after a short pause.Will took a deep breath, strode forward, and picked up the little girl. “I just arrived a few days ago. I’m here to visit relatives. I’m not staying long. What a coincidence… I never thought that I’d run into you here. Are you here to shop for baby things? I came back in a rush, so I couldn’t contact you or Tiffie…”Will knew that she had a baby, and she knew t

    Suddenly, Robin walked over. “Arianne, I’ve settled your sketches. Do you need me to come up with a sample this afternoon? Mr. Yaleman needs it in the afternoon, the day after tomorrow.”Arianne quickly turned off her phone and tucked her hair behind her ears awkwardly. “Uh… Sure. Thank you. You can start on the sample in the afternoon. This one’s a little complicated, so you’ll need some time. Do it early so you won’t have to do overtime.”Robin’s keen eyes spotted the ring on her finger. “Wow, Arianne, your ring is beautiful. The diamond is huge. It must have been expensive. I didn’t see you wearing it this morning. Your husband must have given it to you during lunch, right? Mr. Tremont is so romantic.”Arianne smiled. “Go on, go to the workshop, and start on the sample. You’ll have to support me.”She felt very uneasy the entire afternoon due to Mark’s message. Her mind would always wander off into strange territories. This was her first time going to a hotel with him, and she f

    Arianne was still perplexing over the origin of this ring when Mark pointed out, “I designed it myself a long time ago. Revamped a bit and had someone craft it for three months. I only decided to give it to you after I was satisfied enough.”His admission reminded Arianne—she had seen its design plan in his study when she was still a kid! This was why she felt as though she had seen it before!Back then, Arianne had imagined the ring to be something Mark had designed for his future wife. How would she have known that the same ring would one day fall on her hand?Fate was an enigmatic mistress. By her machination, Arianne’s life was bound to Mark’s for this lifetime.She closed the box carefully, clearly not intending to wear the ring right there and then. She was afraid of losing it during work.Mark was a little displeased with her action. In fact, his handsome face became stormy. “You’re not gonna wear it?”“Well, I don’t want to lose it…”“I can always hire someone to remake
