Mark nodded then frowned. She had only just healed a while ago, how could she have suffered from such severe anemia all of a sudden?
He made a call back to Tremont Estate. Butler Henry answered the call. “Tell the kitchens to buy more blood nourishing vegetables.”
Henry acknowledged the order and ended the call. Mark’s gaze returned to his work documents.
“I’ll be on my way then,” said Brian in a low voice.
Mark nodded. A knock was suddenly heard on his office door. Brain opened it. When he saw Aery, he frowned but didn’t say a word. Instead, he left immediately.
Aery walked into the office. Her heels made a lofty noise as she moved. Mark frowned. “What are you doing here?”
Aery pouted pitifully. “Mark, darling. I know that you’ve been busy, so I haven’t had the nerve to disturb you. But I miss you… I was passing by your office and thought I’d come and see you. I won’t disturb you. Continue your work. I’ll leave in a bit…”
Mark shot her an indifferent look. “If you have something to say, say it.”
Seeing that he had seen through her, Aery stopped trying to hide her intentions. “Mark, darling… Have you given any thought to the collaboration that my mother and I discussed with you during our last visit to your house?”
