Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 64

”I’ll pick you up. Give me your address. I’ll be over in a minute,” Ethan said.

Half an hour later, Ethan’s car arrived outside the gates of the Tremont Estate. Arianne wrapped her coat tightly around herself and quickly ducked into the car. The late night temperature was freezing.

The security guard on night shift at the gate noticed that Arianne had entered a car that was not Mark’s and prudently wrote down the car plate number.

Arianne wasn’t in the mood to venture too far off, so she told Ethan to stop at the intersection. “Let’s talk in the car. It’s really, really late.”

Ethan looked exhausted. “I’m too tired today. Come to my hotel. I’ll call a cab for you when we’ve finished discussing. There are a lot of details to go over, and I don’t want to be thrown off my game when I do this. You’re Tiffie’s only best friend, and I don’t know who else to turn to for help. Just this once, okay?”

Arianne couldn’t bring herself to reject him, so she followed Ethan back to his hotel.

They walked into his hotel room. The takeout that Ethan had previously ordered was delivered soon after. “Would you like some?” he asked.

Arianne shook her head. “No need. Why are you eating so late?”

“I’m helping Tiffie out with locating the whereabouts of the culprits behind the lost jewelry materials. I haven’t had a good night’s rest in days,” Ethan explained as he ate. “I’m sorry for making you come all the way here…” Before he could finish, he accidentally spilled some broth and dirtied his clothes.

“I need a shower. Wait for me,” Ethan frowned. He looked like he was in an extremely bad mood.

“It’s alright, it’s alright. You go ahead. I’ll wait for you here,” Arianne said, trying her best to soothe him.

“I have a female friend showering inside. It’s not really appropriate for you to go in right now. Are you looking for Ari? She’s not here,” Tiffany said hesitantly.

On the other side of the door, Arianne, who had overheard all of this, wasn’t sure if she should feel moved or sad…

The whole thing felt strange to her. She had only just arrived at the hotel with Ethan, and both Tiffany and Mark arrived. What was going on? It’s no surprise to find Tiffany dropping by to see Ethan, but hadn’t Mark gone out with Aery?

Before she could dive in any deeper, Mark ordered his bodyguard to knock down the door.

She took a few steps back, panicking. Then, she shut her eyes and knocked on the bathroom door. “Ethan! Get out, hurry!”
