Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 690

She smacked his hand away. Memories from last night slowly trickled back into her mind. She was now completely out of sorts. She had actually done such a thing!

Jackson frowned, “What? You were just apologizing, but now you’ve become hostile? I’m still angry…”

She was speechless and chose to slip away, “I… I didn’t do anything wrong anyway. At least, nothing concerning. I’ve apologized, so we’re even. I’ve got work to do!” Then, she stood up and got ready to leave, but he pulled her back down, “One more time, the office is quite empty now…”

She felt that he had gone crazy. This was the office, “No! Let me go! We’ll talk about this at home!”

He refused to comply. He bent forward and sucked on her earlobe. His teasing nearly drove her to the brink. She struggled half-heartedly, nearly giving in. Fear brought a different kind of high. She was only afraid that someone from the office might burst in. She clearly remembered not locking the door…

She was extremely red in the face when she emerged from the office. Aye approached her curiously, “Why is your face so red?”

She covered her face with her hands and rushed into the washroom, “Nothing, had a fight!”

Aye was stupefied. Her face was slapped red. Had she been slapped? Did her boss have a tendency to hit women? From that day onwards, her view of Jackson had changed from admiration and esteem to… despise?

Tremont Estate.

Mary panicked, “No! How can you go to the hospital at a time like this? You shouldn’t have to deal with such worrying matters. What on earth is with that aunt of yours? Can’t she handle Mrs. Wynn’s hospitalization? She knows your current condition, and she’s still giving you trouble. Absolutely not! I’ll have Henry check on her for you. If you go out now and Mr. Tremont finds out, he will have a big row with you. We’ve only just had a few days of peace.”

Arianne suddenly panicked. Mary was right. Besides, Zoey was deliberately calling her, waiting for her to show her face, “Alright… Then ask Henry to check on things for me, then give me an update.”

Mary released a sigh of relief, “Good girl. I’m doing this for your own good. You’ve been so careful for this baby. We can’t afford an accident.”

Soon, Henry rushed to the old woman’s hospital, then gave an update — it was acute pneumonia, which stemmed from continuous bouts of fever. The old woman was delirious. Even if they managed to cure her, there would be side effects. In short, her mind would become a lot slower.
