Semua Bab A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride: Bab 1371 - Bab 1380

Alejandro’s voice echoed behind her. “Something terrible has happened to my brother.”Arianne’s legs wobbled. She almost fell walking down the steps. Fortunately, Alejandro caught her hand in the nick of time. However, his grip was a little too tight.She righted herself and willed herself to calm down. “W-w-we should talk in the living room, okay? T-t-tell me what happened?”Alejandro waited until she took a seat on the couch before he recounted what happened. “The freight ship we boarded is wrecked. I don’t understand. I’ve ordered countless inspections and made sure that it had no faults and is in top condition. We encountered mild turbulence at sea, but it shouldn’t pose a problem to a ship like that. It… it doesn’t make sense why it’s so weak. Someone must have sabotaged the ship, someone wants to kill me! Or maybe… maybe the target is Mark. I don’t know. I really don’t know. When we were trying to save ourselves, we discovered the lifeboats have been sabotaged as well. Not eve

“Mark isn’t coming back anymore, is he? You’re the only one with the right to manage Tremont Enterprises. Smore is too young. How can a woman like me possibly accomplish that?” she said with a serious look on her face.Alejandro was reminded of the nightmare. The usual frostiness in his eyes died away. “You can do it. You’ve been with him for so long, you’re capable enough and you have more right than anyone else until Smore is old enough. I won’t touch Tremont Enterprises. I’m not Ethan Connor anymore, and I’m certainly not Martin Tremont. I’m Alejandro Smith. If you’re here to ask me this, there’s nothing more to say. I won’t agree to it. It may seem difficult for you at first, but I will help you. Just say the word when you need more. I owe Mark that much. I owe him a life…”“Didn’t you want to supplant him?” Arianne asked. “The opportunity is right in front of you now, so why aren’t you taking it? It’s completely legal. No one is objecting to it. You’re overestimating me. I don’t

Mary burst into tears when she saw the current state of both mother and son. “Don’t worry, Mrs. Tremont. You work in peace; leave Aristotle with me. He’s still young, so he won’t understand. But he will when he’s older.”Arianne nodded. She had breakfast then went to the office. She was in a much better state today. At least, she managed to hold it in in Mark’s office, instead of bursting into tears. She had no time to cry. She had a lot to learn and very little time to do it. She wished that she could separate one minute into two.“Would you like something to eat, Mrs. Tremont?” Davy asked during lunch time when he noticed that she seemed to have no plans to go out for lunch. “Shall I order a delivery?”“No thanks, I’m not hungry,” she replied, waving her hand. “I’m going to nap for a while, as I’m a bit tired.” She had only slept for a short while last night and she couldn’t stand any longer.Davy grunted in reply and went out.She was tired, yet she could not sleep. After some

Tiffany released a lifetime’s worth of swear words when she saw that report. How could so many people believe in such baseless accusations?Everyone was speculating over why Arianne wanted to be with the man who had killed her father. There was no other reason, except for revenge. They even said that she must have used unique methods in order to make Mark marry her.Soon, Tremont Estate was surrounded by reporters, 24/7, all vying to find out the truth from Arianne.Arianne couldn’t leave the house. She had no choice but to ask Summer to take care of the company for now. She had read through the report countless times and realized that something was amiss—the report accused Mark of being the murderer behind the plane crash, but she knew that it was Mark’s mother, not Mark himself. That meant that the person behind the report knew about the crash but didn’t know the internal specifics. Furthermore, there was nothing else on Alejandro, aside from the fact that he was a b*stard. It did

The policewoman did not know what she was thinking prior. She gave a sigh and said, “The police will arrange for Alejandro to go through a DNA test with regards to the rumors going on around the internet. If he is actually an illegitimate son of the Tremonts… things would become complicated, which I’m sure you are already well aware of.”Arianne did not say anything. Alejandro’s involvement would definitely complicate matters. However, aside from his true identity, the police would not be able to secure any other evidence, hence they would not be able to judge Alejandro, in the end. The fact was, Mark had gone out to sea with Alejandro and only the Smith’s ship had sunk. What was obvious was that the ship had not sunk by natural means, which was evident because of the sabotaged life raft that ultimately caused the demise of the passengers on the ship. The revelation of Alejandro’s identity would make her become the prime suspect. However, other than having to face the pressure from pu
