Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 90

Arienna guessed that Mark had rushed home because she had rebelled by sneaking out of the house until late night.

She straightened her clothes and stepped in, prepared to take the storm head on.

When she entered, none of the servants in Tremont Estate were resting. Butler Henry, Mary, and the other servants were all standing in one line in the living room. Butler Henry looked at Arianne, then sighed and said nothing.

She took a deep breath and said, “It’s alright, I’ll explain it to him.”

“Sir isn’t in a good mood after drinking. You better take it easy…” Mary warned her.

Arienna smiled and went upstairs. The bedroom door was ajar. Mark Tremont sat on the chair in front of the French window with a cigarette lit between his fingers. Smoke veiled the room, and his figure looked slightly hazy.

He was still in his suit, which meant he had just come back not long ago. Arienna approached him and offered him a cup of tea to sober him up. “Tiffie was in a bad mood and drunk. I came back straightaway after sending her home.”

Mark ignored her explanation. He took a drag on his cigarette and asked coldly, “Didn’t Uncle Henry tell you that you’re not allowed to go out?”

“He did, but he is only a butler. He can’t control where I want to go. This has nothing to do with him,” she responded calmly.

He snuffed his cigarette out. “You’re always so forgetful. Butler Henry is getting old, maybe it’s time for him to retire and go home.”

Arianne was stunned; she didn’t expect Butler Henry to be implicated as a result. “I said it has nothing to do with Uncle Henry.”

Arienna shook her head. “No, I’m just afraid of disturbing him.”

Mary looked like she was hesitating to speak. “Say what you want,” Arienna told her.

It was only then that Mary finally told her. “Sir came back last night with a sour face. He blamed Old Henry for not taking good care of you and fired him… so he’s actually packing up as we speak. Can you persuade sir to change his mind? Maybe he only said that out of impulse because he cares too much about you and worries that something will happen to you when you go out at night… Can you talk to him?”

Arienna Wynn had a slight headache. She looked at the steaming bowl of millet porridge in her hands, then got up and went upstairs.

She thought Mark would still be asleep, but it turned out that he didn’t even sleep at all. After taking a shower, he sat in front of the French window all night in his bathrobes. It was obvious that no one slept on the bed last night because the blankets were still neatly folded on the bed.
