Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride




Arianne was quite lost.

"I don't know... I had his clothes on when I woke up... I drank too much that day, plus it's been too long... I don't remember a thing. I think... that's all, I supposed what's done cannot be undone. Forget it, I still have to go back to work after this. Oh, and Eric wasn't being a hypocrite. His stomach is really delicate. He's absent today and he's my boss. I'll be out of a job if you knock him out again. Be nicer."

Tiffany Lane was nonchalant. "It wouldn't kill him would it? Plus, I was being considerate for Ethan. He liked that restaurant from last time. The general hygiene is bad, but he enjoys the atmosphere. His family isn't doing well and he always wears a long face when I take him to more expensive places, making both of us unhappy. It doesn't bother me anyway. What does Eric have to do with you? He's never been around you in the past."

Arianne then identified Eric Nathaniel. "He's Mark Tremont's friend. You can think of him as keeping an eye on me for Mark Tremont yesterday."

"Holy... No wonder you dared not talk to me about Will. Men are terrifying." Tiffany felt speechless.

All of a sudden, Arianne caught a familiar frame from the corner of her eyes. It was Mark Tremont. He was here at this restaurant too! He was not alone either, there was also Aery Kinsey....

"What are you looking at?" Tiffany was puzzled when she did not give a reply.

Arianne stood up quickly to block her view. "Nothing... Uh, right... I need to go to the washroom."

"Go, go. Be quick. Lunch is going to be served." Tiffany waved her hand to excuse her.

It was not Arianne's actual intention to go to the washroom, so she stood still on her spot before sitting down again when Mark Tremont and Aery Kinsey had left into a private room.

Tiffany Lane looked at her as if there was a fool right in front of her.

"Didn't you want to use the washroom? You can hold it in by standing up?"

Arianne was distracted. "Don't feel like going suddenly..."

Knowing that Mark Tremont and Aery Kinsey were here and worrying that Tiffany would see them, Arianne kept glancing toward the private room during lunch. She was

"Tiff, I'm not eating. Eat faster, I have to go back to work."

Tiffany complained as she had only just begun to eat, "What? That's how long you have for lunch? Not even enough time for a warm meal. Is Eric Nathaniel human? I see why his stomach is problematic now serves him right! I think he's too harsh towards himself, as well towards you employees. Scary!" Content belongs to Novelxo.org

Arianne could not care to save face for Eric as she was preoccupied with rushing Tiffany.

After another ten minutes, Tiffany was finally done with the last of her lunch and asked for the bill, before she was forcefully dragged to the restaurant's exit by Arianne.

The moment they stepped out of the door, a shadow overcame them. Tiffany nearly fell to the ground from a head on collision when Arianne caught her in time. Looking up, they met Eric Nathaniel's surprised gaze.

Eric was miffed with a hand over his chest, in pain from Tiffany having ran into him. Due to what happened yesterday, he did not look his best today. There was a questioning look on his face.

"Huh, you're out for lunch when you

should be resting in bed? Posh

et

restaurants won't upset your stomach, is that the case? Young master Nathaniel? Let me give you a suggestion. Extend lunchtime to at least two hours, you're making Ari eat like she's in a competition!" Content belongs to Novelxo.org

Once Tiffany opened her mouth her words flew out, stunning Eric from her mockery.

Arianne said nothing, leaving in a fluster, as she tugged Tiffany along. Eric Nathaniel's gaze frightened her. She was afraid of being exposed, so she ran away

as fast as possible...

When the girls were some distance away, Eric entered the private room Mark Tremont and Aery Kinsey were in. He looked casual when he brought it up. “I met familiar faces at the entrance when I came in just now."

Mark Tremont was disinterested, but Aery Kinsey asked sweetly, blinking her lively

eyes.

"Who was it, Eric?"
