Chapter 66
Arianne didn’t respond and simply tightened her grip on the towel around her. She shut her eyes, refusing to look at him. Perhaps she wouldn’t feel so
afraid if she avoided looking at him...
Mark’s gaze landed on the scar on her shoulder. She was left with this scar because of him... But now, he saw it as a mockery. “You disgust me!”
Mark left and didn’t do anything else to her. This was different from his usual way of dealing with things.
The bedroom door slammed shut. Arianne sat stiffly on the bedside like a soulless puppet.
She stayed up the entire night, and no one called her to collect a dead-drunk Mark Tremont. He wouldn’t turn into a completely different person in his
drunken state and paw at her neck like a cat, either...
At eight in the morning, Mary knocked on the door. “Ari, are you up? Would you like something to eat? What happened... between you and Mr.
Tremont?”
Mary sighed and didn’t ask any more questions.
Her phone rang. Arianne didn’t feel like answering it but, at the same time, was irritated by its noisy ringtone. She picked up her phone weakly,
answered the call, and listened to Tiffany’s voice through the receiver. “Ari, are you okay? Ethan’s explained it to me. I never doubted you... Did Mark
do anything to you last night?”
Arianne paused, then said, “No, I’m fine.”
The tone of her voice sounded off. Tiffany noticed this and became worried. “Why is your voice so hoarse? Are you sick?”
Arianne sniffed. She had lost her sense of smell and now couldn’t smell a thing. “A little. I’m fine. I gotta go.”
Her body was now completely weak after being doused with cold water last night. She felt dizzy too and drifted back into sleep after ending the call.
By the time she woke up again, she was in the hospital.
The smell of disinfectant was as distinctive as ever. It seemed to carry a strange infectiousness that felt very reassuring.
Seeing that Arianne was awake, Mary heaved a sigh of relief. “You’re finally awake. Ari, you have no idea, you nearly scared me to death!”
Arianne’s eyes stared emptily up at the ceiling. “What happened to me...?” Her voice was still hoarse, and it hurt to speak.

Mary furrowed her brow. “You fainted from a fever. You were scorching when I found out. You’ve really scared me to death!”
That reminded her of something. “Forget it. It’s not like we can meddle in the affairs between you and Mr. Tremont. Things have... really blown up this
time. Who knows how Mr. Tremont is going to solve this now.”
Blown up? What did that mean? Arianne grew anxious, afraid that Mark had done something again. “Mary, what’s happened? What did Mark do?!”
“It’s not him...” Mary quickly said, “Focus on getting better, then look at the news.”
Arianne couldn’t wait. She grabbed her phone and swiped through it. News of Mark dragging her out of a hotel had been leaked, and there were
pictures too. The caption read: “Looks like Mrs. Tremont has been caught having an affair with her best friend’s boyfriend. Mark Tremont angrily drags
her away!”
She did not expect for one misunderstanding to explode into such a state. This was no longer an issue between a few people...
The contents of the news made her unnerved. Her chest rose and fell rapidly. She felt as if she was being strangled.
Mary quickly snatched her phone away. “Stop reading that, Ari! Focus on getting well. It will be alright as long as Mr. Tremont believes in you,
understand?”
