A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride Chapter 130 Tiffany’s New Job
Arianne trembled in fright, causing some soup in the bowl to spill out, scalding her. She gritted her teeth and rushed towards the coffee table in the dining room, which was much closer. Then, she put down the bowl. Of course, that meant that she put it in front of Mark. The soup splattered into every direction. The disgust on his face was obvious.She summoned her courage and pulled out a few pieces of paper towels. Then she wiped the soup clean under his watchful gaze. “What are you doing back so early?”Mark paused, got up and headed upstairs. “It’s 1AM.”Arianne bit her lips and did not reply. Her scalded hand was in great pain. To her, his return was simply too early. She had initially believed that he wouldn't be coming back at all… After her meal, she washed everything clean then walked around the living room for a while before heading back to the room.Mark was dressed in house clothes and was sitting in front of the French windows with a cigarette in between his fingers.
A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride Chapter 131 A Bank Card
”Hello, vice chairman.”Tiffany spiritedly turned her head towards the door, following the uniformed direction of gazes from everyone in the office.As a newcomer, it was required of her to give her superiors a good impression. However, when her eyes landed on Jackson’s frivolous expression, she wanted to die. “What kind of vice chairman is he?” she asked someone next to her, muffling her voice.“The boss’s son. Our vice chairman. He manages the entire company. The old chairman is now an arm-flinging shopkeeper. Bright Incorporated is the West family’s head office…”Tiffany couldn’t hear the rest of whatever her colleague had said, nor was she in the mood to listen anyway. She never thought that she’d end up in Jackson’s grasp. She had fully intended on leaving a good impression on her superior, but it seemed like there was no need for it now. After everything she’s been through, it was obvious to her that Jackson West did not have a good impression of her. It would be impossible t
A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride Chapter 132 A Consolation Prize
Arianne spotted Tiffany sitting by the window with one glance when she arrived at the restaurant. She recollected her emotions then slowly walked towards her and sat down.Before she could begin, Tiffany began jabbering on and on, “I’m done for, I’m done for. I thought that I had found a good job, but I never thought that my boss would turn out to be Jackson West! I’ve knocked into his car and said a few hateful words to him too. I’ve never met anyone who doesn’t hold a grudge! I definitely won’t last very long in his company. I might as well pack up and leave instead of waiting for him to fire me…” Arianne was a little rattled. She was thinking about Ethan’s reasons for seeking her out. If she gave this card to Tiffany, she would undoubtedly believe that Ethan was doing well in life, the kind of life that meant that he could spend millions without batting an eye. There was no greater slap in the face than telling someone that their ex was much better off than they were… Tiffany g
A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride Chapter 133 Tiffany’s First Train Ride
Tomorrow, she would finally get to clear up things with ‘Mr. Sloane’ who sent the letter. Perhaps after that, she would finally be able to sit with Mark and enjoy a peaceful meal together...After dinner, Arianne strolled around the garden before she went back and laid down in her room. Since the pregnancy made her easily fatigued, Arianne turned in early for the day. The quality of her sleep was better than ever, so she didn’t even realize that Mark had come back and taken a shower. It was only when she stirred awake in the middle of the night that she realized that Mark had been sitting in front of the French window all this while.“You’re back…?” she asked in a daze.Mark didn’t respond but she didn’t care. She only wanted to take care of her personal business as quickly as possible so that she could return to her warm blanket.As she headed toward the door, his cold voice suddenly rang out. “Why did Ethan give you money?”Arianne stopped in her tracks as her mind suddenly beca

Three hours of train ride was neither a long nor short journey. The moment the train stopped, Arianne immediately stood up with her backpack, feeling eager to get off. Tiffany followed closely behind her. “Hey, slow down! You still have a little one in your tummy!”It was almost noon when they reached a small, dilapidated town based on the address. This was where the letter was sent. The entire town was lifeless. Aside from a few elderly people tottering along the streets, they didn’t really see any energetic young people around.The economy of the town was bad so the young people were mostly working in the surrounding cities, leaving only the elderly behind.After making several enquiries, they finally arrived at ‘Mr. Sloane’s house’. A two-story house that was so run down that it looked inhabitable greeted their sights. The front door with overgrown weed was left ajar. It seemed like no one had lived here for a long time.Arianne couldn’t shake off the bad feelings in her heart.
A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride Chapter 135 In A Deadlock
She refused to believe that Mr. Sloane was dead. How could a dead person send a letter?“Stop thinking about it for now, Ari. Let’s take this matter slowly. I’ll help you analyze it too. I passed this letter to you shortly after I received it. Given the distance from here to the capital, it wouldn’t take a long time for the letter to be received. The sender must be alive, or at least, when he sent the letter. He might have used an invalid address to send the letter because he didn’t want you to find out where he lives now. Hmm, I’m not quite sure what’s going on here, but Mr. Sloane is definitely not dead. Don’t be discouraged. Since he sent the first letter, he will send another one for sure. We’ll just have to wait! He may not want us to track him down, but he can’t just leave us hanging like that, right?” Tiffany tried her best to comfort Arianne.“Don’t worry, I’m fine, Tiffie. I’ve waited for so many years, I can continue waiting… I’m fine really…” Arianne put the photo away and
A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride Chapter 136 Forced To Take Medicine
“Understood.” Brian noticed Mark’s bad mood and cautiously drove back to Tremont Estate.When they passed by a drugstore, Mark suddenly spoke up. “Stop the car.”Brian quickly stepped on the brakes. Mark got out of the car and went into the drugstore. “Bring me some medicines for stomach problems,” he told the staff.“Is it a gastric or something else? What are the symptoms? Is it for an adult or child?” the staff asked.Mark frowned slightly. He thought for a moment then replied, “Irregular appetite… Chronic nausea and pale complexion. For an adult.”Once he was done purchasing the medicine, he went back to the car with a sullen face. Brian didn’t dare to ask any questions. He just stepped on the gas and brought him back to Tremont Estate.Mark went straight to the bedroom with the medicine. Without looking at the person lying on the bed, he tossed the medicine on the bedside table. “Take the medicine.”Arianne sat up from the bed, not understanding what trouble Mark was trying
A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride Chapter 137 A Physical Examination
Mark paused in his footsteps but didn’t stop. “Can’t she say what’s on her mind by herself? Does she need someone else to say it for her?”Mary shut her mouth resentfully. Seeing that Mark was going out again, Brian was about to quickly get the car out of the garage when Mark’s deep voice stopped him. “I’ll be driving myself.”Brian hummed in response. Sweat had broken out in his palms. The words ‘don’t mess with me’ were written all over Mark’s face right now. Whoever dared to go up to him now was courting death itself!“Brian, take Arianne to the hospital tomorrow morning. Have a thorough physical examination performed on her and bring me the report.” After giving this order, Mark’s car quickly disappeared into the night.Hearing the sound of the car leaving Tremont Estate, Arianne got out of bed and stood in front of the window. She felt a little upset. After all, Mark had purposely bought her medicine, and she didn’t expect things to turn so sour...She pulled out her phone an

Arianne had not heard that name for so long, she had to reel back in bemusement for a few seconds before finally remembering her face.Shelly-Ann Leigh… She must have spent all those years in the mental institution, right? God knows if the woman’s hair was now grey and white all over.When someone was near death, one could stand to forgive all of the history between them—even the dark ones, even if the ledger was brimming—for good. So, Arianne replied, “I’ll go with you. No matter what happened, she’s still your mother.”Mark did not expect that answer from her at all. In his surprise, he bent down and left a kiss on her lips. “I knew I picked the right woman as my wife. I thought you wouldn’t agree to let me accompany her for the last of her days…”Arianne replied nothing. She was not so obtuse that she would try to win over a woman whose days were numbered. No matter how much of an a**hole Shelly was, Arianne was still the one who came out on top. That victory was all she needed.

Arianne sneered. “You confused, little thing. I wouldn’t be daft enough to anger the mother of the man I like if I were you, girl. I would especially not say anything as low IQ as that, too. Let me be completely frank with you: no one who bears the surname of Leigh will ever get the better of me—the last one failed. Hard. I can guarantee that you’ll leave us in the span of three days. If I lose, you can stay here forever. Wanna bet? I dare you.”She left her threat hanging at that and turned her wheelchair away, leaving the scorned young woman behind.Rage came out of Raven as waves of quakes all over her body. She was lurching close to hyperventilation, but right before it became impossible to stop, she came around and battled herself to calm down. She had a feeling that even if she fainted right there and then, no one would discover her, would they?Now that Arianne and Mark had returned, the Tremont Estate had recovered its vivacity and life. It had become merry.And Raven Leigh

Melissa was the type who always pushed things to go as festive as logically possible. She leaped to her feet and raised her cup, “Yo, everyone! Let’s toast to Cindy becoming my cousin-in-law!”The crowd answered enthusiastically with their cups in the air and a roar—except Raven, who remained seated. “I have a sickly constitution. I can’t drink. I’m sorry.”Her smile was so mechanical, her face too ashen. Something flickered in Arianne’s eyes before she replied, “Sure.”After the revelry faded, Arianne steered her wheelchair to the courtyard. The outward appearance of the Tremont Estate seemed to have frozen in time, which was why being here made her feel so… safe.Of course, that was despite Henry and Mary’s passing. In the end, time passed and things changed, characters and objects came and went, and all these missing years left lingering regrets in their wake.Arianne espied the silhouette standing alone at a distance and approached her, sighing, “Nothing beats being home.”Ra

Arianne grabbed the two beauties by the hands and smiled. “Thank you! Gosh, to me… it’s like you two have grown older in the blink of an eye! How gorgeous the two of you are! Cindy, where’s your brother? Plato hasn’t come home yet?”Mentioning the name of her dear brother made Cynthia pout. “He said he was coming home half a month ago—that’s what he said. Who knows what he’s actually doing, though? Anyway, who cares about that no-good. He’s always like this anyway. Oh, um, the weather is quite hot. We should probably get inside.”Arianne nodded and shot a brief, uneasy look at Aristotle. Not once did he look like he wanted to talk to her… Could the boy be counting his grievances in his mind? Mark and Arianne had stayed in Switzerland for so long; life must have been hard for him all alone.It took until she reached the living room to finally notice Raven. “Millie, is this your younger sister?”Melissa quickly sprung to correct her. “What? Noooo. This is Ares’ classmate or something
A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride Chapter 1897 A Queen’s Return
Aristotle’s entire being stilled.He had waited for this news for nineteen years. As time passed, the flames died little by little, the heart grew more numb, until the very thought of it was no different from a pipe dream. But today, news of it coming true reached him and plunged him into a torrent of feelings.A long while later, he finally muttered under his breath, “When… When will they be back?”Jackson closed the distance between them and gave the young man a light, comforting pat on the shoulders. “Not so soon, I bet; not when your mother has just woken up and is in need of some time to recover. She did sleep for nineteen years, you know. So maybe after she’s recuperated enough for a while…” he answered. “We’ve waited for nineteen years for this, right? What’s waiting for just a little bit more compared to that? The most important thing for you to do is to manage the company to the best of your abilities. That’s the way to not disappoint your father’s expectation.”Aristotle
A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride Chapter 1896 You Mom’s Woken Up!
Cynthia had never had a relationship before, so she did not know what love was. However, one thing was for certain. She loved the feeling of being with Aristotle and how he had protected her since they were kids. Even though Aristotle had become a little domineering and “naughty”, she was not taken aback by him. Instead, she even felt a little moved, which was amazing.It wasn’t known how they ended up in bed, with their breaths synchronized. Apart from the final step, they had done just about everything else that could be done.Just as they were about to hit the final step, Aristotle suddenly stopped and helped pull the covers over Cynthia. “Let’s sleep, good night.”Cynthia was still lost in a daze from before. She did not know why Aristotle had suddenly stopped, nor did she have the courage to ask him. She had struggled for so long before having persuaded herself to go with the flow…The next day, when Cynthia woke up, Aristotle had already long gone to his company.She took a

Cynthia heard what Aristotle said, but her hands did not stop doing what they were doing. Her head was in a complete mess. “There’s no… no need. I’ll be able to be done with these now. Go ahead and get some sleep first. By the way, where am I sleeping tonight? There are so many rooms here, I’ll ask Agnes to help me clear one up.”Aristotle walked up to her and squatted. He grabbed onto her arm with one hand while the other closed the luggage. “Just sleep with me here and stop tidying already.”Cynthia suspected that she might have misheard. She took a look at the big bed behind him in a daze and suddenly felt her palm, which was held by him, burning up. “Y… You’re kidding, aren’t you, Ares? Although we used to sleep with each other a lot when we were kids, we’re all grown ups now, so wouldn’t that be a little inappropriate?”Aristotle said with a straight face, “I wasn't joking.”Cynthia panicked a little and recalled Melissa’s words once again. ‘Would Ares, whom I’ve known for so

Melissa knew that Aristotle had kissed Cynthia, so she knew what was going on. Hence, she very naturally boasted, “Of course, they’ve been engaged to each other since they were born. Coincidentally, the both of them felt the same way about each other as they grew up, so wouldn’t this make it even better? From the way I see it, your illness isn’t going to recover for the rest of your life and the both of them are probably going to have to wait until Cindy graduates before they get married. So, you’d be better off moving back to France as early as possible. Don’t worry, you’ve saved Aristotle’s life before, so he wouldn’t be stingy with you financially.”Raven wanted to control the unhappiness she had in her heart very much, but her emotions refused to follow her will. Hence, she fiercely struggled to wring free from Melissa’s grasp. Melissa was startled for a moment. “Are you crazy?”After that, Raven regained her senses and took a deep breath. “I’m sorry… I was a little unwell just n
A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride Chapter 1893 Won’t Your Fiance Get Jealous?
‘You’re not that worried?’ Melissa was so furious that she laughed. “Am I the only one who’s being worried for nothing? I thought you loved my brother, didn’t you? The man you’ve been dreaming of every day has returned from France but brought a woman with him, yet you’re actually not that worried? Let’s put aside your parents’ intentions for a moment. Do you dare to say that you don’t love him? I’m only helping you because you’re my best friend, so could you not be so relaxed, as if I’m helping you for no reason?”Cynthia shook her head and lowered her volume as she said, “He… might have confessed to me. We also… did that already. So, I think he doesn’t feel that way towards Raven. It’s purely because she saved his life once. I trust that Ares will be able to handle the situation properly.”Melissa’s eyes opened wide. “What? He’s only returned for a few days, yet the two of you have already had sex? That fast?! I never knew it, but you’ve really got it in you!”Cynthia’s face flushe
