Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 125

By the time Arianne came out, Mark was already sitting at the dining table. He was in his light gray loungewear with slightly damp hair. She could smell the after-bath fragrance on his body. Regardless of circumstances, Mark always paid attention to his bearing and manners. He kept his posture straight all the time and never seemed to relax, even for a moment.

Since Arianne didn’t know what to say, she decided not to say anything at all.

There were two plates of big prawns for dinner tonight. When Mary served up dishes, she purposely placed the prawns in front of Arianne. Arianne unceremoniously began to peel the prawn shells and feasted on them. On the other hand, Mark gracefully brought the small bowl to his lips and slowly sipped on the soup.

He failed to see how someone with such a good appetite was suffering from gastritis and was starting to heavily suspect that there was something wrong with her.

Arianne noticed his stare, then forced herself to ask, “What’s wrong?”

Mark averted his gaze and turned a deaf ear to her.

She resentfully continued peeling the prawns. Without eating rice, she cleaned the two plates of prawns and ended her meal with a small bowl of soup.

By the time she finished her meal in satisfaction, she realized that Mark was long done eating but chose to stay at the dining table and watched her eat.

Arianne licked the corner of her mouth, feeling a little nervous. “Did I eat too much?”

It was then that Mark got up and went upstairs. “It’s good that you are aware. If you want to eat something, then tell the kitchen next time. Don’t act like someone was starving you.”

She stared at the prawn shells that piled up like a small hill in front of her and realized that she had indeed overeaten. If it weren’t for the plates she had cleaned, she felt like she could still fit in half a plate more… Her appetite had increased a few times compared to before, but it wasn’t like she could control it...

After moving around in the living room and confirming that Mark wouldn’t come out of his study anytime soon, Arianne fetched half a glass of warm water back into her room and secretly took one folic tablet that she’d hidden in the room. It was said that taking folic acid in the first three months of pregnancy could effectively prevent birth defects.
