A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride novel Chapter 229

Mark did not say anything, but seeing the insistence in his eyes, Arianne did not push it.

On the way to the hospital, she could not help asking, “How many brothers are there in Eric’s family? Why have they gotten to this stage?”

Mark tugged at his tie. “One elder sister and two elder brothers. He’s a late comer to the family… from his father’s third wife. He has a different mother from his elder siblings. It’s complicated. His old man doesn’t really regard him highly. It’s honestly not Eric’s fault. If it were me, I would have done much worse than he had.”

Arianne also thought that things would not stop here if it were Mark.

Arriving at the hospital, the doctor picked out the pricks in Arianne’s palm. When she saw her bloodied palm, she realized how hard she must have gone just now. After having her palm treated and bandaged, Mark wore a frown while looking at her hand. “Don’t go back to the office later. I’ll send you home.”

Arianne was reluctant. “I’m fine. I still have unfinished tasks and I need to work overtime tonight. How can I not go back to work? The wound won’t affect my work.”

Mark ignored her opinion and dragged her into the car to send her to the Tremont Estate. She had thought about going back to the office after Mark left but he was not planning to head out. Although he was occupied with work in front of his laptop, Arianne dared not escape under his nose.

It was already three in the afternoon when Nina came out of her bedroom with a yawn. “Why are you guys home so early?”

Arianne looked begrudging with Rice Ball in her arms. “I didn’t want to… Something happened in the office.”

Nina nodded and got changed. “I’m going to see how my house is. I’ll probably be moving out in two days. Arianne, come hang out with me when you’re free. I plan to stay here for one year; it’s pretty boring being alone.”
