Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 1548

After Arianne was done feeding Shelly, the latter suddenly said, “Mark, you’ve been looking after me tirelessly the whole night. You should go home and get some rest. I’ll be fine here, but I’ll need your help with arranging someone to take care of me for the next few days, since I can’t move around by myself.”

Mark pulled up her blanket and tucked her in. “It’s fine, Aunt Shelly. I can’t be at ease if someone else takes care of you. I’ll let Arianne accompany you for the time being while I go home to get changed. I’ll be back later.”

Arianne suddenly said, “If you’re worried about someone else taking care of her, why don’t you let me do it then? I’m sure you’d be at ease if it were me, wouldn’t you? You can’t be away from Tremont Enterprise for too long, so you should leave the errands in the hospital to me.”

Mark swiftly scanned Arianne’s face and casually said, “It’s fine, I’ll do it.”

Arianne trembled—was he being defensive of her? Was he afraid that she would mistreat his Aunt Shelly? Did she seem like the type of person who would argue with her at a time like this?

Just as Arianne was about to explode in anger, Shelly said, “Arianne’s right, you should return to your work at the company. I won’t be able to return to work for the time being, so you’ll need to arrange someone to man the fort at the planning department during my absence. There’s still much to be done at the runway hall. I’ll be fine with Arianne here to look after me. Don’t worry.”

Mark was silent for a moment before he agreed. He requested to speak with Arianne outside the ward before he left. “In truth, I really can’t leave the company for the time being, so I’ll leave Aunt Shelly under your care. Could you not… argue with her please? You know how her mood tends to swing without warning, so just let her do as she pleases. The doctor says that her… right leg is heavily injured. It’s very likely that… she will never regain functionality of her leg again. I still haven’t dared to tell her about this yet. She’s a perfectionist like my mom, so who knows how she’d react when she learns about the truth… You shouldn’t tell her about it, as well, for the time being.”
