“Maybe it’s time you get yourself admitted, Aunt Shelly. We’re all very worn out.”Mark's sudden remark hushed Shelly into stunned silence. A few seconds later, she recovered with an indignant murmur. “Wha… What are you saying? You’re… You’re not seriously suggesting institutionalizing me, are you? Are you?! You think I’m mad... You think I’m insane? No, you don’t understand! You don’t know what Arianne’s doing behind your back, do you? What kinda juju did she put in you, my poor Mark. Why can’t you wake up and see the truth? I’ve done everything in my power devoting to the singular goal of coming back to your side—how could I let them harm you under my watch? No! Come hell or high water, I’ll eliminate all of them, all these pesky threats! They will never harm a single hair on your head, never again, never again, never…”Something left Shelly’s eyes, leaving behind two hollow, unfocused pools as she mumbled to no one in particular.Arianne caught the most unnerving part in her mono

“No frickin’ way. Mark’s sweet little aunt again?” Tiffany teased. “Look at the tortured state she has put you under, gal! He’s gotta be blind to not see this!”Arianne’s body sagged like a deflating balloon. “Oh, blind he is not. The problem is, he doesn’t know what to do with his aunt! No normal person would seriously consider reasoning with a psycho, right? —That’s right, I totally agree with you now. She’s a complete fruit loop and an utter nutcase. Doesn’t matter how terrible her transgression is, or how much venom’s in her words; you’re supposed to forgive the insane after she said she’s sorry! So what if I had enough of her? As long as Mark can’t say the word, I still have to put up with her all-day, every single day!“Like what. The. Hell, Tiffie! You should have seen that never-before-seen puppyish docile look on Mark’s face when he’s with his aunt. It was that exact moment when I knew the only way forward for me is to endure her forever! I mean, for crying out loud, she’s h
A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride Chapter 1565 The Culprit Is Among Us
Looking up at the ceiling stretching way above her head, Arianne imagined the light plummeting from its spot and felt a surge of terror bubbling in her mind. Shelly was lucky that the light did not kill her right there and then.The women took a complete round, strolling within the show hall before heading to the surveillance room.The languid security present had been close to napping, but seeing Arianne shocked him awake. Arianne ignored the question on whether the security was doing his job and went straight to her motive. “The footage for the accident that happened here; do you still have it?”“Y-Yes, you bet!” the security answered hurriedly. “Um, it was quite the accident, and we worried that Mr. Tremont’s gonna ask for it some day or whatever, so we didn’t dare delete footage of it, as well as a day before and after the accident happened. Would you like to take a look, Madam?”Arianne nodded. The security guy began to hammer away on his computer and launched the surveillance
A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride Chapter 1566 Aunt Shelly Is Involved In The Incident
Melanie’s statement was verified. Shelly had indeed been staring at the chandelier for a long time before the incident happened. After realizing this, they rewatched the surveillance recordings and discovered that from the moment Shelly entered the ballroom, she kept on subconsciously glancing at the chandelier. Initially, Mark wasn’t walking under that chandelier, but he only did so after Shelly said something to him, pointing towards the chandelier’s direction while she was at it. Arianne’s entire body shivered down to her spine when she thought of something. However, she could not say too much since the security guard was standing next to her. Instead, she saved a copy of the surveillance recordings and left, but not before she made sure that the security guard had deleted all the surveillance recordings from their servers. The matter was serious; it would be better if less people were to learn about the fact. After they left, Tiffany suggested, “Why don’t we go to my house? The

After that, they focused the recording on the man and found that he had entered the showroom the day before the incident happened. There was no one in the showroom except for the man, so no one knew what he did while he was in there. It’s possible that the man had taken the opportunity while the facility was being renovated and entered the showroom. While he was in there, the power within the showroom was out and even the surveillance cameras were off. Due to the limitations of the surveillance cameras, the trio could not make out the man’s face, so that was as much as they could investigate for the time being. Shelly had most likely orchestrated the entire incident herself, and only she herself knew the motive behind her actions.In order for the trio to investigate further, Arianne decided to locate the man first. She needed to ensure that she had enough evidence before she could confront Shelly. Arianne did not want to hurt Mark by wrongly accusing Shelly if there was even a slit

Mary had a surprised look on her face. “Did she? I have no idea. All I know is that sir suddenly returned home in the afternoon and then brought her out. I didn’t hear anything about her falling down. Doesn’t she know how to call out for help when she falls? There’s so many people at home, and none of them are deaf. Despite my age, I’ve still got perfect hearing, and I’m very sure that she did not call out for help. I would not have known if you hadn’t told me about it.”Realizing that Mary was telling the truth, Arianne became speechless. What kind of scheme was Shelly up to this time? It was obvious that she had not called for help, but in front of Mark, she pretended as though everyone had ignored her. Based on Arianne’s understanding of Mary’s character, there was no way she would ignore Shelly if she fell unless she was truly unaware of the incident.Arianne did not make a fuss about the matter with Mark. If Shelly truly had something to do with the incident at the showroom, Ari
A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride Chapter 1569 Arianne Realizes The Truth
Mark did not say anything, his expression unreadable due to the darkness. There was no moon that night, so the atmosphere was enshrouded with darkness and nothing could be seen.After two seconds, Mark released Arianne’s wrist. However, he immediately picked up Arianne’s slender body and got down to business, with her all the while shrieking. Thunder began to strike all of a sudden, but it was not enough to cover up the sounds inside their room. The thunder strikes were soon replaced by rain and the commotion in the house died out as well. All that was left were the sounds of two slightly breathless people and the rain.Arianne waited for Mark to fall asleep before going to the bathroom. She looked at the mirror, and seeing her slightly tired face, she helplessly sighed.Suddenly, she could hear her phone softly ringing and reflexively darted out of the bathroom. Sure enough, her phone was ringing, and she immediately turned it to silent. She looked at Mark, but he only turned aro

Arianne curled under her blanket when she could no longer resist the cold. The blanket was very warm thanks to Mark’s high body temperature. She immediately felt bliss when she tucked herself in.Arianne’s movements awoke Mark from his sleep. He half-opened his eyes and looked at her before easily pulling himself into her arms. “Why’re you up so early?”Arianne did not even manage to get some sleep. How could she fall asleep?She quietly tucked herself in his arms, not knowing what to say.He suddenly kissed her cheek. “I don’t think I was that rough last night, was I? Are you angry about that? So angry that you couldn’t even sleep last night? I wasn’t really suspecting you of anything last night; I was just in a bad mood. It’s my fault, so please don’t be angry, alright?”Arianne quietly looked at him. “It’s not because of that… Are you awake? I’ve got something to tell you, but you need to be mentally prepared for it.”Mark slowly sat upright to show that he was thoroughly awak

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

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
