Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 129

After confirming that crabs were not completely off limits, but should only be eaten in moderation, she relaxed. She had been particularly interested in seafood as of late.

At the dinner table, Arianne ate two crab legs and stopped eating any more crabs. Instead, she focused on eating other dishes.

“Is the taste not to your liking, Madam?” Mary asked when she saw this.

Arianne shook her head, “No, they’re delicious.”

Mary frowned, “Based on the amount of prawns you’ve previously had, this crab shouldn’t be enough for you. You should have some more…” Mark did not like seafood, so if Arianne didn’t eat them, they would be thrown away. Mary was both hardworking and thrifty in running their household, so her heart ached at the thought of waste.

Arianne glanced at Mark and awkwardly explained, “I don’t really feel like eating today…”

This was the only excuse she had to fumble through the situation. Hence, she was too afraid of asking for a second helping and was only half full.

After dinner, Mark sat on the sofa and fiddled with his phone, as if he was waiting for a call. Arianne knew that he would be going out tonight. As for whom he’d be seeing or what he’d be doing, she didn’t want to know.

Half an hour later, she poured herself a cup of warm water, went back to the room, and took out the folic acid that she had hidden away. She nearly revealed that she was pregnant last time. She was still traumatized, so it was better to not reveal anything about the child before everything else was settled.

Arianne heaved a sigh of relief when she saw him collect his documents and leave. Now, she broke out into cold sweat. The folic acid in the bottle had completely spilled out. She would have to get more from the hospital…

After consuming the folic acid, she soon felt hungry again. If she went down looking for food now, Mary would question her. She waited until late at night when everything was quiet before tiptoeing downstairs to the kitchen and making a fresh bowl of noodles for herself.

As she slurped on the bowl of noodles while heading towards the dining room, she realized that more lights in the house had suddenly turned on. There was only one light on when she arrived downstairs…

She was mulling over her confusion when Mark’s voice suddenly rang aloud from the living room, “Weren’t you full from dinner?”
