Semua Bab A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride: Bab 41 - Bab 50

Eric Nathaniel frowned the moment he entered the restaurant. It was lower-class and cheap, somewhere he never would dine in. Especially upon noticing the grease on the table, Eric was fueled by the impulse to turn on his heel and leave. However, thinking about Mark Tremont’s favor, he swallowed his compulsion.“Ari, here!” Tiffany Lane saw Arianne right away, standing up to wave without shame.A beaming smile finally broke out of Arianne Wynn’s face as she hurried over. Tiffany acted just as she would have three years ago, not changing a single bit, just like Arianne had imagined her to be.Tiffany did not come alone. There was also Ethan Connor. Compared to three years ago, he looked much more mature, but his playful appearance of the past had transformed into a mysterious front. His eyes were smiling but they looked like two voids.Tiffany was surprised when she saw Eric Nathaniel. “This is…”“I’m Eric Nathaniel.” Eric was easy going as he introduced himself.Tiffany Lane did not pur

Arianne was quite lost.“I don’t know… I had his clothes on when I woke up… I drank too much that day, plus it’s been too long... I don’t remember a thing. I think… that’s all, I supposed what's done cannot be undone. Forget it, I still have to go back to work after this. Oh, and Eric wasn’t being a hypocrite. His stomach is really delicate. He’s absent today and he’s my boss. I’ll be out of a job if you knock him out again. Be nicer.”Tiffany Lane was nonchalant. “It wouldn’t kill him would it? Plus, I was being considerate for Ethan. He liked that restaurant from last time. The general hygiene is bad, but he enjoys the atmosphere. His family isn’t doing well and he always wears a long face when I take him to more expensive places, making both of us unhappy. It doesn’t bother me anyway. What does Eric have to do with you? He’s never been around you in the past.”Arianne then identified Eric Nathaniel. “He’s Mark Tremont’s friend. You can think of him as keeping an eye on me for Mark T

Returning from work, Arianne took a hot shower. She then had a sip of black tea that Mary passed her.“Thank you, Mama Mary!”Mary watched her lovingly. “Ari, you’ve become sweeter with your words recently huh. You used to be too shy. It’s true that people do change finishing school and enter into the working world. You should try to talk to sir more too. Usually he’s not one to speak. How are you supposed to spend time together if both of you keep to yourselves?”The fact that Mark Tremont was mentioned, gave Arianne Wynn a smile but she did not comment.Butler Henry’s voice suddenly boomed from the doors. “Sir!”Seeing that Mark Tremont was home, Mary scooted into the kitchen to urge the chef’s to prepare dinner.Arianne took the black tea and sat on the couch, appearing to mind her own business. However, her mind automatically replayed the scene where Aery Kinsey entered the restaurant whilst hooking arms with Mark Tremont. She could not pinpoint what she was feeling, but it was lik

Eric glared at him, pretending not to care as his gaze dulled. “I’m happy being free. They can do whatever they like. You and Mark are both the only sons of your family, so no one is fighting over family assets. What a delight! It’s different for me. Danger lurks everywhere!”Jackson diverted the topic as he went over the latest industry news. “There’s some issue over at Mark’s. There’s an accident with his partnering jewelry manufacturer. Someone embezzled the raw materials, costing nearly fifteen million. It’s a regular factory. I don’t think the manufacturer will be able to survive this. He’s probably done for.” Eric sniffed and talked through his blocked nose, “It’s only fifteen million. Mark can take it. It’s the little factory that got unlucky.”Simultaneously, Arianne saw the news. Her heart sank when she saw the name of the manufacturer, ‘Hoyle-Roy’. That was Tiffany’s family run workshop!She called said girl in a haste, but an automated machine-voice message told her that he

If that was the case, she had committed a grave mistake. Arianne became extremely conscience-stricken.Mary slapped her own thigh. “Right, sir hasn’t done anything for his birthday for so many years, I’ve almost forgotten too! Look at this memory of mine, I should’ve reminded Ari earlier!”Arianne stood up weakly. “Never mind. It’s okay. I’ll go look for him.”She made it sound casual but inside, she was at a loss. She did not even have the courage to enter the study room.She made tea and brought it to the study room. Knocking on the door, Mark Tremont’s furious voice came from the inside, “Get lost!”Arianne knew that she must not back down now and braced herself to go in and open the door. “I didn’t know that it was your birthday today…”“Get out!” Mark Tremont threw the book in his hand to the floor, his wrath felt like the deadly winter.Arianne bent down to pick it up but saw Mark Tremont leaving like a gust of wind.She had a premonition that she would not know the next time he
