Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 485

Lynn stopped in her tracks and frowned. “I like him!”

Arianne didn’t actually reach for her phone, but the answer still made her gasp. “Tell me more…”

Lynn struggled internally for a moment before she decided to tell the whole story. “I guess it doesn’t matter anymore since I won’t be staying here anymore. I’m an orphan. I escaped from an orphanage with bruises all over my body, then spent the rest of my days begging on the streets. The darkest time of my life lasted until the day I met Mr. West when I was fourteen.

“The memory is still vivid in my mind. It was a cloudy day, but the rain never came. The chilly wind blew against my dirty body and tousled my messy hair. When he stood in front of me, I felt a strong sense of inferiority and desperation to be close to someone for the very first time. He told me that he liked the fierceness and tenacity in my eyes, then took me in and sent me to a bodyguard academy under the establishment of the West family. In order to receive his praise, I worked harder than anyone else.”

She paused and smiled bitterly. “I thought he liked me as a man would fancy a woman. Since he was only five years older than me, I thought there was a chance between us. I only wished to be a little closer to him, just a little closer. At that time, he was frequently training at the academy too. Apart from him, I was the best in the academy. I knew that he had countless women around him and I’ve always envied them for being able to be so intimate with him. When I took the initiative to confess to him, he rejected me. It was the first time he warned me so seriously that I was different from those women and that he wouldn’t do that to me. All he hoped for was that I could live a great life in the future.

“But I didn’t listen to him. I wanted to be… one of his women. When I turned eighteen, I begged him to celebrate my birthday with me and he agreed. I spiked his drink and thus achieved my long-planned goal. I thought he would accept the reality and accept me, but he was livid when he woke up the next day. After he left, we never met again. Seven years later, he came looking for me again. I was introduced to Mark Tremont and got hired to protect you.”

Arianne felt extremely conflicted; she never expected something like that between Lynn and Jackson. There was no doubt that Lynn was still very deeply in love with Jackson, but most importantly, they had slept with each other before.

Lynn seemed to disagree with her choice. She looked at Arianne’s back then said, “Tiffany and Mr. West aren't from the same world. She isn’t as smart or calm as you. How long do you think she can stay with him? Do you think someone as naive and sweet as her could spend the rest of her life with Mr. West? The gap between them will soon be evident. By then, even she would be stressed out. I’m pretty sure she will leave Mr. West immediately if I told her about that incident. Arianne, I don’t value this commission, but I’m sure you know the purpose of my desire to stay.”

Arianne paused in her steps. “Are you trying to negotiate with me here? You wish to stay so that you can at least see Jackson when he comes to see Tiffie, right? If I won’t comply with this, then you’ll reveal the truth to Tiffie? Lynn, you underestimate me and Tiffie. She’s someone who has experienced a storm. She won’t break up with Jackson over you. You can give it a try.”

After saying that, she left without even looking back. Lynn clenched her teeth. Arianne was more difficult to deal with than she thought. This woman looked soft on the outside, but she was tough on the inside. No wonder why Mark Tremont couldn’t handle her either.
