Aery pouted at her. “I didn’t say anything, you said all that yourself… After all, that scandal from three years ago over an indecent photo of you and Will, shouldn’t you be avoiding him now, especially when you are already married to Mark dear? The child that you lost… was it really Mark’s? Can you be honest with me?”
While saying all this, Aery was still blinking her huge and innocent-looking eyes. She was making it seem like she was unintentionally shooting her mouth off inappropriately in the public.
Arianne’s response was surprisingly calm. “No, it’s not his. Are you satisfied? Now, can you take your things away and piss off?”
Her statement instantly sent everyone into an uproar. No one expected that she would openly admit in public that she had cheated on Mark Tremont!
Eric was shocked too. “Arianne, you can’t just spout nonsense! Don’t be angry, we’ll talk after work. Carry on with your work first. Aery, aren’t you going to find Mark? I’ll send you there!”
Arianne accepted Eric’s offer with a nod then suddenly leaned toward Arianne’s ear and whispered only loud enough for her to hear, “So what if I was the one who hit you? Mom knew it was me and she was the one who helped me deal with it. You are just a bastard that no one wanted. Mark would have been better off raising a dog than someone like you. That little bastard in your womb deserved to die.”
The emotions that Arianne had been suppressing all this while instantly burst out. She grabbed whatever she could find on her office desk and hurled them at Aery like she had just lost her mind. “You are the one who deserves to die!”
Eric didn’t know what caused Arianne to snap as he quickly pulled Aery away. Documents, pencil cases, and a round but thorny succulent hit him like a storm.
The other employees in the office could no longer sit still when they saw their boss being assaulted. They flocked toward Arianne and stopped her, “Calm down!”
Arianne was pinned firmly against her office desk. Her tummy was hurting from being pressed up against the corner of the desk. The wounds she sustained from the accident hurt a great deal too. Even so, she didn’t care because her heart… was in the most pain...
