A Ruling Passion – Chapter 0609

Why would Arianne be afraid of Eric taking advantage of her? She was afraid of them having drunken sex!

However, Tanya really seemed fine, so she heaved a sigh of relief, “Uh... Could you get ready and come with me to the hospital? We have to finish up the funeral procedures for Old Anderson as soon as possible. Will you be taking his ashes back?”

Tanya hugged her blanket and fell silent before making a decision, “No, grandfather said that he wants his ashes sprinkled across the sea. That was his final wish. I have to fulfill it for him. I’ll be on my own from now on. It kind of hurts to think about it... Life used to be difficult, but I wasn’t alone... Now... I can’t even relax. It really hurts. It’s like I’ve lost hope. Ari, it hurts.”

Arianne could empathize with her pain. She had gone through it, after all, “It’s alright. It will get better. Trust me. No matter how painful your experiences may be, it gets better over time. Time is the best medicine. I’ve experienced it. Get up, wash up, and let’s go.”

Tanya forced a small smile. She got up and walked into the washroom. Suddenly, she ran out with a mouthful of toothpaste, “Oh no! I completely forgot! Ricky’s got a bad stomach, and I made him drink with me! His stomach must have been hurting since last night! I’m really so stupid!”
