Semua Bab A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride: Bab 161 - Bab 170

Eric, who was about to leave the company, burst out into laughter when he heard what Arianne said. He called Mark as soon as he stepped out of the elevator and repeated what she said without missing a beat.Mark looked impossibly brooding on the other end of the line. “Laugh all you want, Eric. I’ll make laughing impossible for you later. Do you still want that contract signed?”Eric forced himself to stifle his laughter. “Cough, cough… Uh, it has nothing to do with me. I just heard her in the passing. Haven’t I been kind enough to tell you?”The corners of Mark’s lips curled up thoughtfully. “Eric, ask Arianne to sign the contract with me. Otherwise, I won’t be attending the appointment. I won’t meet anyone from your company either, for that matter. You have an hour and a half until office hours end to decide.”All traces of humor left Eric. “Big bro, don’t do this to me. What can I possibly do to Arianne if she refuses to go? Fire her? She’s your wife, what can I do? Besides, she sai

When the dishes were served consecutively, a hint of a smile grew more apparent at the corners of Mark’s lips. It felt like a breath of fresh air.Arianne was rather puzzled. Was something wrong with him today? She knew that he always had a façade in front of everyone but something did not feel quite right.After a moment of observation, she picked out a detail. No matter how he smiled in the past, his eyes looked like they were covered with ice. There was no emotion in them. Today, however, even his eyes were beaming…Mark did not come up with absurd requests during the meal, which kept Arianne on edge. The contract was soon signed. The process was so smooth that it felt like a dream to her.It was around eight at night when they exited the restaurant. The night breeze during this season was still a little chilly. Lily asked, “Arianne, are you going back with Mr. Tremont?”Before Arianne could answer, Mark replied, “She’s my missus. Of course she’s going back with me. Ellie, let Miss

How could Mark not understand what Mary meant between the lines? He pursed his lips before saying, “I’ll be heading out later and won’t be back for lunch. I’ll come home around four in the evening.”Mary hustled out to prepare his clothes for the outing and went to the backyard after that. “Ari, sir is going out shortly and will only be home at four in the evening. Don’t stay in the wind out here. It’s not even a month yet. What if you get other illnesses in the future from being so weak?”Arianne replied in a whisper, “I’ll head inside first. Let Rice Ball in for me after Mark leaves.”Mary nodded and couldn’t help being delighted. It wasn’t for much other than her feeling that Mark was concerned for Arianne. He never told the house staff that he was going out in the past, nor would he inform his return time. Even his dinner at home was an impromptu call back after a spontaneous decision. His anomaly today was obviously for Arianne and Rice Ball’s ‘space’.Just when Mark was prepared

Seeing the clear disgust on Mark’s face, Arianne was secretly flustered. However, she didn’t make any comments. After all, she couldn’t ask everyone to like Rice Ball just because she liked it. She was satisfied with just being able to keep it by her side.Arianne was even more surprised by the fact that Mark had no plans to go out at night. Why would a man who always avoided coming home as much as he could suddenly stay at home so obediently every night now? With Mark around the house, Arianne felt more uncomfortable, and she had even less time to spend with Rice Ball.When she went to bed at night, she suddenly recalled what Tiffany told her during the day and felt her face growing hot.Mark laid next to her, looking at his phone with his back turned to her. The densely packed text on his screen made her head hurt just by looking at it. She even wondered how he managed to stare at it for so long.The phone suddenly rang and startled her. It was Mark’s phone and the display showed

When Arianne didn’t get his answer, she continued, “What? You have money to fool around outside but don’t have any for your wife?”“I got it.” A hint of a cryptic smile appeared in Mark’s eyes.After hanging up the call, he immediately transferred some money to her on his phone. The smile in his eyes crept to his lips.Aery couldn’t help feeling jealous when she noticed Mark's seemingly great mood after receiving the call. “Mark dear, who was that? You seem really happy after receiving that call…”The smile on Mark’s face instantly reduced as he replied indifferently, “No one in particular.”Helen noticed the situation and whispered, “Aery, aren’t you talking too much? Not even food can stop your mouth?”Aery closed her mouth in annoyance. A woman’s instinct was always very accurate. The person who called Mark just now was definitely not an ordinary person.Arianne looked at the transaction notification on her phone with a slightly conflicted feeling in her heart. She had never
