A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride novel Chapter 267

Early in the morning, the very next day, Mark had disappeared. Arianne was feeling listless because of George Levin. When she went downstairs for breakfast, Mary stepped forward and began nagging. “Ari, have you been fighting with Mr. Tremont again? He just returned from his business trip last night, and he looked upset when he left this morning. You looked gloomy as well.”

Arianne shook her head, “I didn’t quarrel with him. I don’t know what’s up with him either. I’m just in a bad mood, but it has nothing to do with him. Don’t worry, Mary. I’ve been busy lately. I’ll have to work overtime over the next few days since I haven’t been working overtime lately. Please do me a favor and watch over Rice Ball.”

Mary heaved a sigh of relief. “I’m glad you haven’t been fighting. Don’t worry. Rice Ball eats better than I do. I’ve let it try every delicious thing in the house that it likes. It’s all fat now, and its tummy is nearly sweeping the ground when it walks.”

Arianne naturally trusted in Mary’s care for Rice Ball. She rushed straight to her company after breakfast. However, when she arrived, she felt something was amiss. Everyone seemed distracted. They would look toward the office from time to time. Feeling suspicious, she asked the person next to her, “What’s going on?”

“The chairman’s family has arrived,” her neighbor replied mysteriously, “They’re in the middle of a fight. You happened to arrive at the right time, it’s gotten better now. None of us are bold enough to find out. Why don’t you take a look? You’re Mrs. Tremont after all. No one would dare to do anything to you. I heard there’s going to be a change of management in the company again. Honestly, life’s been much better for us ever since the current chairman took over. The company’s been enjoying remarkable achievements and improvements. If we switch management again, this might not be the case. We’re all feeling pretty apprehensive. How about you use an excuse like… sending off a document or something, to go in and have a look?”
