Lahat ng Kabanata ng A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride: Kabanata 201 - Kabanata 210

The cloud of daze that hung above Arianne dispersed immediately when she heard the sound of the pages of a book being turned. “I can’t go out. You know my situation. You go ahead and send my regards.”Tiffany sounded a little dejected. “Alright then… I’ll ask him what’s going on when we meet. How can there be an accident out of the blue? If it’s really the Galenas, I won’t forgive them!”Arianne’s conscience clawed at her, she was feeling guilty on Mark’s behalf. “Sure… Off you go… I haven’t even gotten up from bed. I’m hanging up.” After she hung up, she stayed in bed a little longer before finally going into the bathroom to freshen up.Since she had spent most of her time in bed recently, she discovered her hair had grown longer. It got tangled when she was sleeping last night, and no matter what she did, she could not comb the knots out. Just when she found a pair of scissors and was about to snip it off, a pair of fair hands stopped her.“Give me the hairbrush.”Bewildered, Arianne

Soon after, Mark entered the room. “What happened?”Arianne looked at him with red-rimmed eyes. “Are you with Aery Kinsey because you like her or because you want to seek revenge from me? Hmm? I admit defeat, okay? How much do you hate me to go to this extent? Marrying me then getting together with my half-sister. Not only did you tolerate her killing our child, but you covered for her and helped the Kinseys after the incident. If you really like her, why won’t you let me go? If it’s just for revenge, I surrender. I’m not a worthy opponent. I’ll use my entire lifetime to repay what I owe you. Don’t disgust me with those people anymore!” She took a deep breath before she continued on her tirade, “No matter how abominable I am in your eyes, I’ve already become such a pathetic person! Even I despise myself. My mom… My biological mother colluded with you and covered for Aery Kinsey. My mom told me she had cancer and forced me to plead with you to help the Kinseys. I actually believed her.

As Arianne thought of ways to cover for her slip of the tongue, Mark had already lay down next to her. He took her phone away before he said, “Then what kind of tone do you want me to use with you?”Arianne’s face felt a little hot when she caught a whiff of the manly scent that belonged uniquely to him. “Give me back my phone… I’ll sleep after replying to Tiffany.”Mark raised his hand that was holding the phone high up. There was no way she would be able to reach it. “Answer my question first.”Bracing herself, Arianne replied, “I’m not your daughter… What tone do you think you should use?”“Teach me?” Mark looked at her with gleaming eyes.Arianne felt as though doing that was akin to going on a suicide mission. She punched his chest softly and said, “Let’s sleep.”Lo and behold, Mark suddenly swooped down to kiss Arianne’s forehead. “You don’t even know how to act cute. Are you even a woman?” After that, he returned the phone to her before he adjusted himself into a comfortable pos

Arianne was perplexed. The only landline phone in the entire design department was at Lily’s table, and it was normally used for work. Usually, she would not be asked for work matters. She rose to her feet and went over to pick up the phone.Arianne answered the phone, “Hello? Good morning, this is Glide Design.”“Hah, it’s me, Wendy Galena.”Hearing the voice at the other end of the line, Arianne was even more bewildered. “Wendy? Can I help you?”“Nothing much. I passed by your office earlier and saw Mark dropping you off at work. You were smiling really happily as though you like him. I genuinely thought you like Will. I really didn’t expect that you’re not even affected by what Mark did to the Sivans. You’re quite ruthless. Well, I guess everyone would be thrilled to become Mrs. Tremont. You must have done good in your past life for being able to cling onto someone like Mark despite your identity.”“Is there anything else you want to say?” Arianne frowned.Wendy chuckled dryly. “Wil

In order not to rouse Mark’s suspicion, Arianne asked to leave an hour and a half earlier from Lily in the afternoon. She did not ask Eric, afraid that he would tell Mark.When Arianne left the office, she bought some fruits and hailed a cab to the hospital. It did not take long before she found Will’s ward. She hesitated for a moment, caught in a dilemma, before she finally knocked on the door.Will’s clear voice rang from behind the door. “Come in.”Arianne felt inexplicably assured when she heard his voice. She pushed the door open, revealing a small smile. “I got off work early today and thought that I’d drop by since you’re hospitalized. How are you feeling?”Will was a little stunned as though he did not expect to see her. When he regained his senses, his eyes were filled with joy. “I… I didn’t think you’d come. I’m okay. My leg is fractured, it’s not very serious. Have a seat.”Arianne observed Will and felt the guilt in her heart growing. He had been hale and healthy before thi
