A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride novel Chapter 323

Arianne did not close the bedroom door when she slept. This way, the air conditioning in the bedroom could more or less lower the temperature in the living room. Otherwise, Mark would not be able to sleep.

The fatigue these two days caused Arianne to sleep soundly until the next morning. If she weren’t woken up from nature’s call, she wouldn’t have even bothered to leave her bed. Walking to the bathroom drowsily, she was stunned when she entered. Mark was using the toilet! And he did not even close the door! Although he stood with his back facing her, Arianne could hear him clearly.

She closed her eyes instinctively and turned around. “Can you close the door when you use the toilet?”

“Can’t, it’s too hot.” Mark was nonchalant, having a temper from his lack of sleep.

Would the heat in the bathroom kill him in the time taken to pee? Arianne was speechless. At the same time, she prayed for him to be faster. With the baby in her womb, she could not hold it in for too long… Before she was pregnant, she had never felt this extent of urgency.

When Mark was finally done, she pushed him out impatiently, not expecting him to push the door open and ask, “What’s for breakfast?” just as she sat on the toilet.

Arianne looked at him in shock, unable to release herself no matter how urgent it felt. Was it really appropriate to discuss breakfast in this setting? Was he still Mark Tremont, who had always been particular?

As if realizing something, Mark closed the door again.

Breathing in relief, Arianne got up to lock the bathroom door before she continued to soothe herself of life’s most urgent call. She had still been sleepy before, but now she was wide awake.

Coming out of the bathroom, she asked as if nothing happened, “Did Rice Ball eat anything? Did it drink?”

“It drank, but nothing to eat yet,” Mark answered casually.

Not knowing what to reply, Arianne checked the time. Helen had probably asked someone to send the breakfast by now. She opened the door, and as expected, there was also fresh produce. Breakfast was sent every day while fresh produce was sent every other day.

She took the breakfast to Mark. “There you go. Didn’t you ask what’s for breakfast? This.”

Mark made no comment about the shop where the breakfast was from and opened it at once. “I thought that you didn’t want anything from Helen.”

Arianne smiled. “I don’t. I rejected her money and property too, but she pushed them to me anyway. I can only find a chance and return them to her. But the fresh produce and breakfast that she sends? I don’t like wasting food. What can I do with them if I don’t consume them?”

Mark did not reply still. Arianne thought that he was busy and gave up interrupting him.

In the CEO office of the Tremont Tower, Mark looked at Arianne’s texts without replying, but he did not turn his screen off either. He had just discovered that it was actually so simple to have her become ‘chatty’ with him.

For the entire afternoon, Arianne sent him ten text messages telling him how to take care of Rice Ball, afraid that he did not know how. Mark had only replied a “Mm” without regarding her reminders. She was not even born yet when he had a cat.

Once work ended in the evening, Arianne went to Mark’s office with Tiffany. Certainly, it was for Rice Ball.

Arianne had been worried about Rice Ball having a hard life for the whole afternoon, only to find out how comfortable it was when she reached Mark’s office. Its bowls and bed were new purchases, its kibbles were imported, and it had a brand new luxurious cat climbing tower. It was like it had a new home here!

Although Rice Ball still looked lifeless without an appetite, it was doing much better than it used to.

Tiffany joked, “Mark, why don’t I return the car to you? Now that Rice Ball is sick, you have to take care of it with Ari. Just stay together. You can drop her off and pick her up from work every day, along with the cat. Isn’t that easier? Why did you still give me a car for nothing? When Ari’s tummy gets bigger in another month or two and she goes on maternity leave, both of you will still have to stay together. You won’t actually leave her alone, right? What do you say?”
