Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 117

Arianne didn’t speak. She cautiously walked down the stairs and into the dining room. Mark looked at her coldly. “You need someone to invite you to eat? Have I never taught you the rules?”

She sat down and started eating all by herself since she was famished anyway. Besides, she was certain that Mark wouldn’t do anything to her in front of Helen. After all, he still had that perfect image to maintain in front of others. Putting on a sour face was probably the most he would do.

Helen looked at Arianne with a motherly gaze. “Mark, I am extremely grateful for all the care you have given to Ari in the past. As a mother, I can’t help but feel ashamed.”

Aery couldn’t continue watching the show. Before Mark could speak, she interrupted, “Mark dear, you’re such a nice person. To think that you could take in the daughter of an enemy and feed her for a few decades.”

The expression on Helen’s face turned dark as she tried her best to suppress her anger. “Shut up.”

Aery put on an innocent look. “Am I right, mom? Big sis is really lucky.”

Arianne’s hands froze. She couldn’t even swallow the food in her mouth. This Aery Kinsey always seemed to be able to pick a good moment to disgust her.

Mark closed his eyes to wipe away the anger in his eyes. He then got up and said, “Enjoy your meal. I’m done. We’ll continue our talk later in the study room.”

Helen stood up and smiled at him. “Sure, thank you.”

Mark stomped his way upstairs in silence, naturally out of his anger toward Arianne.

Arianne ignored Helen because she had no interest in seeing her crocodile tears. She had no need for maternal love that came too late, especially if it was to make up for her wrongdoings in the past.

It was around three in the afternoon when Helen and Aery were finally leaving.

When Arianne heard the commotion outside, she felt irritated for some reason. Then all of a sudden, she heard Helen’s voice. “Let me bid my farewell to Arianne. She didn’t look so good, I’m guessing she must be feeling unwell.”

Arianne frowned then held her breath. In the next moment, someone knocked on her bedroom door. She flipped over and pretended to not hear it. Nevertheless, the door was still pushed open.
