Semua Bab A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride: Bab 1321 - Bab 1330

Jett felt helpless. It was completely normal for Melanie to feel insecure, now that she no longer had Don Smith behind her. However, he was telling the truth. She just wouldn’t believe him. “Ma’am, please don’t think the worst of everyone. I may be working for Mr. Smith, but I know the difference between right and wrong. Men don’t like it when women refuse to let go. That will only annoy him. Perhaps you should focus your attention on something else.”Melanie took a deep breath. “Something else? The baby? She’s the only thing I have left. But he hasn’t even touched her since her birth. Just how cold-blooded can he be? So, he’s distant to the baby too, just because he doesn’t love me? I’m not asking for him to fall in love with me one day, but I’d be content if he could be nicer to the baby… My greatest fear is that he’ll suddenly ask for a divorce. That would be my greatest humiliation!”Jett checked his surroundings, ensured that there was no one else, then lowered his voice and sai

After locking the door, Robin stood under her roof and reached out her hand to see how heavy the rain was before swiftly retracting her hand again. She had forgotten to bring an umbrella with her; she had to grab a taxi by the parking lot in front of the cafe, which meant that she had to stand under the rain. There wouldn’t be that many taxis on a rainy night like this, so she was hesitating on whether to rush home under the rain. Robin wanted to go home earlier so that she could spend more time studying since her exams were approaching soon. She was worried that her family would cause a scene again if she did not manage to get certified as an accountant.Sylvain began to waver as he saw Robin struggling. He wanted to send her home but did not have the courage to face her at that moment. They had not met for so long that he wondered how she would react upon seeing him… He had already decided not to interfere in her life long ago…After a moment, Robin actually fished out a book from

Mark’s face turned even darker. “That’s what I want to know as well. Do you think I should cut Brian’s salary in half?”Arianne stifled a laugh. “Just ask him what’s going on tomorrow. You’re a man as well, so you should know that men would normally spend most of their time on their relationship at the beginning, so it’s normal for them to neglect their work. It’s not as though Brian has committed the same mistake several times. It isn’t a good idea for you to cut his salary right when he needs it the most. Relax, hurry up and get a nice, hot bath. I’m heading to bed first.”Mark quietly accepted her suggestion. He was not actually going to cut Brian’s salary, but the fact remained that Brian was neglecting his duties recently and Mark needed to sort it out with him.By the time Mark was done bathing, Arianne had already fallen asleep, Smore was on the bed as well in his mother’s embraces, completely cutting him off. Although there was a really big area all for himself, he was still

Arianne contacted Naya straight away after finishing her errands in the afternoon. Unfortunately, she was told that the landlord had become rather desperate, so she had no choice but to bring her trip a day forward and fly tomorrow.She then filed for a week-long leave—one week being Mark’s upper limit on tolerating her absence. Since her flight was tomorrow before noon, she began preparing her suitcases right after managing to coax Smore into sleep.Arianne knew that this trip would be a costly one, so she took Mark's bankcard. The money Will returned to her was in it, along with the allowance Helen had given her. It was situations like these that made her private fund so useful.From his spot on their bed, Mark watched her with a scowl as she busied herself with preparations. “Aren’t you quite eager to leave,” he muttered.She kept her head low and continued packing. “Yeah. Schedule’s a bit tight. I’ve requested a one-week-leave, by the way, so expect me to come home within a wee

Alejandro looked up and met Melanie’s gaze. “No, you stay at home and take care of the child. I don’t need you sticking your hand into the business of my company. And the last thing I want is to be dragged into some stupid fight with you while I get all kinds of stress from work. Also, next time? Don’t talk to me with that asinine tone.”Melanie placed their daughter on the couch nearby as though she was ready for a throwdown with Alejandro. “What ‘asinine tone’ did I use? My God, don’t tell me you’re feeling worn out—not when I should be the one who’s sick and tired of all of this first! After all, look at my dear husband being emo over some other woman while neglecting his wife and daughter. How charitable do you expect me to be, huh? Or would you only turn around if I go to Tiffany and tell her to coax you back into your sensibilities?”Alejandro’s expression turned icy. “Enough! Any attempt to get close to her and you’re finished!”The poor baby watched her parents’ altercation
