Chapter 891: Chapter 891: She Doesn’t Like You at All...
Mark raised his hand to ruffle Arnold’s hair, speaking in an uncompromising tone: "You don’t need to worry about Ethan; I will go find him!"
Arnold: "But..."
"No buts!" Mark’s hand landed on Arnold’s soft cheek and gave it a gentle pinch, "Listen to me on this one, okay."
"Oh." Arnold agreed helplessly, looking at Mark, "How about I go home and ask my grandparents and mom to help me talk to Elder Moore, take a roundabout approach?"
Mark nodded, "That’s not a bad idea."
After reaching an agreement, Mark drove Arnold back home.
Afterward, Mark drove back to his workplace.
Sitting in his office, Mark was sullenly brooding, his mind consumed with thoughts of how to disrupt the engagement between Arnold and Ethan.
Because under the current circumstances, only by preventing Arnold and Ethan’s engagement could he have hope of being with Arnold.
But the head is really stubborn, and indeed, it was he who was in the wrong before.
After thinking it over repeatedly, he couldn’t come up with a more effective plan, so Mark still decided to go directly to talk to Ethan.
Mark stood up and left his office, appearing in Ethan’s office ten minutes later.
He looked at Ethan with a cold face, speaking bluntly: "Ethan, you can’t get engaged to Arnold; she doesn’t like you at all!"
"So what?" Ethan looked at Mark, speaking confidently, "I know Monica doesn’t like me now, but one day she will!"
Mark stepped forward, grabbing Ethan by the collar, "You’re dreaming! I’m telling you, Arnold likes me! She’s liked me ever since she was only ten, and she has continued for over ten years!"
At this moment, Ethan couldn’t help but feel envy and jealousy towards Mark.
He never knew that Monica had liked this man for so long!
He believes that in terms of appearance, ability, and family background, he is not inferior to the man in front of him, and he grew up with Monica as childhood sweethearts.
More importantly, he has liked Monica since he was very young.
He is willing to give up everything for Monica, so why, in Monica’s eyes and heart, is there only this man?
No, as long as he puts in the effort, Monica would eventually notice his feelings for her and could love him!
Ethan stood up, also grabbing Mark by the collar across the desk.
With icy eyes, Ethan looked at Mark, speaking without backing down: "Even if Monica likes you, what can liking for over ten years do? Officer Foster, should I remind you? I will soon be engaged to Monica!"
Mark’s fist tightened angrily.
Seeing Ethan’s infuriating face, he raised his fist without hesitation.
"Oh, is Officer Foster resorting to violence now because threats don’t work?" Ethan fearlessly looked at Mark, sneering.
Mark looked at Ethan, desperately wanting to land a punch on this shameless guy.
But he knew he couldn’t do that.
If he did hit Ethan right now, it would be even harder to explain to the old general.
Mark slowly relaxed his fist and released his grip on Ethan’s collar.
Then, Mark gently smoothed out Ethan’s wrinkled collar, looking at Ethan, and softly said, "Don’t worry, I won’t hit you. I’ll make you willingly break off the engagement."
Ethan laughed, "Is that so?"
As he spoke, Ethan also released his grip on Mark’s clothes, looking at Mark with a challenging expression: "I’ll be watching very closely!"
Mark’s dark eyes glinted coldly, "Don’t worry, it won’t take long!"
"Mm." Ethan nodded, looking at Mark with calm eyes, speaking steadily, "Indeed, you don’t have much time left, because I’ll soon be engaged to Monica."
"Having dreams is a good thing, but you’re destined not to achieve them!" Mark’s cold gaze locked onto Ethan as he spoke with proud defiance: "Believe me, if Arnold were to get engaged, it would be to me!"
While Mark was negotiating with Ethan, Arnold, who Mark had sent home early, was also pleading with his mom, grandpa, and grandma.
As soon as Arnold entered the house and saw his grandparents and mom sitting in the living room, he immediately smiled sweetly, "Mommy, Grandpa, Grandma!"
Isabelle Hewitt looked at Arnold, softly asking, "Monica, why are you back so soon?"
"Well..." Arnold looked at his mom, blushing, "The things I wanted to confirm are confirmed, so I came back."
With that, Arnold walked up to Isabelle Hewitt.
He obediently massaged Isabelle Hewitt’s shoulders, speaking flatteringly, "Mommy, there’s something I’d like to discuss with you."
Isabelle Hewitt chuckled knowingly, yet pretended not to know, "What is it?"
After choosing his words carefully, Arnold directly said, "Mommy, you know there are no feelings between Ethan and me; I only see him as..."
"Lack of feelings isn’t a problem; feelings can grow over time!" Before Arnold could finish, Isabelle Hewitt interrupted him directly.
Isabelle Hewitt placed her hand on Arnold’s massaging hand, pulling him to sit beside her, looking at Arnold and speaking slowly, "Monica, look at your dad and me. We were introduced to each other and got married, and our relationship is still good now, isn’t it?"
Finished speaking, Isabelle Hewitt added, "Besides, you and Ethan are different from your dad and me. We didn’t know each other at all back then. You and Ethan grew up together, so your relationship is better."
Arnold wasn’t swayed by Rowan Hewitt’s words, but instead looked at Isabelle Hewitt, revealing, "Mommy, even though you and dad didn’t know each other when you got married, I do know some things about you and dad."
Thinking for a moment, Arnold summarized succinctly and accurately, "You and dad fell in love after getting married, and the story of you two could fill a novel without exaggeration."
After speaking, Arnold looked at his grandparents, seeking confirmation, "Grandpa, Grandma, isn’t that right?"
The Moore family’s grandma nodded, "Mm, Monica is right."
Finished speaking, the Moore family’s grandma looked at Arnold, then turned around and said, "Monica, since your parents could fall in love after getting married, you and Ethan can too!"
"That Ethan kid is not bad, and he’ll treat you well. Marrying him, you won’t be bullied!" The Moore family’s grandpa looked at Arnold, speaking with certainty.
