Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 164

Arriving at the forty-sixth floor of Tremont Tower, Mark Tremont’s secretary, Ellie Amore, placed two pairs of slippers in front of the two ladies. “Please change into these.”

Lily changed into the slippers as told, but Arianne ignored the order. Of course, she still knocked before entering the office and only went in after Mark gave permission. She was here to sign the contract, after all, not to quarrel.

“Mr. Tremont, this is the contract from our company. You can have a look first. There’s no hurry to sign it. Let’s have a meal together later and you can take the time to consider,” Arianne said with a formal tone.

She stood tall and straight with a smile. Other than her shoes that she had not changed, there was no fault.

Mark scanned the document that she had passed him seriously, leaning against his chair. His somber front surprised Arianne, as she thought that he would make things difficult for her. It seemed like he really didn’t intend to mix work and personal affairs; although, she still couldn’t figure out why he’d asked for her to be present for the contract signing.

After a moment, he flipped the folder close and put it aside. “Not much issue. We’ll talk at the table.”

As he said so, he got up to wear the suit jacket draped on the back of his chair. Ellie Amore naturally went to straighten up his collar for him, her movement fluid as if they had been married for years.

Arianne shifted her gaze, inexplicably feeling offended by the scene…

Lily witnessed everything and could not help doing a double take at Ellie Amore. She was a beauty with a hot body. There was nothing to pick on. However, was it really appropriate for her to straighten the CEO’s clothes in front of his wife?

On the way to the restaurant, Arianne rode with Lily while Mark went with Ellie Amore. He had only brought along his secretary.

Lily could not help asking Arianne, “Don’t you think that the secretary and Mr. Tremont share an unusual relationship? I’m not gossiping, just want you to be careful.”

Arianne shrugged. “Can’t help it, can’t be bothered.”

Lily pondered before replying, “I don’t believe any cheating was involved. Indeed, other people aren’t like you. Had it been any ordinary person, they would have been enjoying themselves at home rather than working out here like you just to feed yourself.”

Arianne smiled, and the conversation ended. Soon, they arrived at the restaurant. Both of them put on professional smiles once they got out of the car and entered the restaurant with Mark courteously.

Seated in the booth, Lily accepted the menu from the server and passed it to Mark. “Mr. Tremont, please make the call.”

Mark did not take the menu, however. With an affable smile, he said, “Let Arianne order. She knows what I eat and what I don’t.”

Lily was stunned for a moment before she broke out of it and passed the menu to Arianne. “Here you go.”

Arianne glanced at Mark and had an impulse to order everything he didn’t like. Once she remembered that this was a partnership discussion and she could not act simply on her whims and desires, she racked her head for the dishes and wine that he preferred in her impression.
