Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 1577

Mark’s facial expression slightly changed. “Are you saying that Aunt Shelly’s the one who ambushed Alejandro? Stop joking, you already know that Aunt Shelly isn’t that fit to begin with, and even if she had the use of all her limbs, it’s more likely that Alejandro would’ve successfully retaliated and she wouldn’t have been able to escape unharmed.”

Arianne did not dare to dive deeper into the topic. “I didn’t mean it like that. It was just a random thought that came to mind… It’s quite late now, so let’s get some sleep and continue our search tomorrow. I’m sure we’ll get some leads soon.”

When the lights were out, the entire house was enshrouded in darkness. Mark laid sideways as he faced Arianne. She could neither see his facial expression through the darkness, nor did she know how he was riddled with insomnia the entire night.

Could it be true that Aunt Shelly had faked losing the use of her leg just to bluff him? Could it be that her leg wasn’t crippled at all? Why would she go to such lengths and do such things? Why did the family love that he yearned so much feel so heavy? Within his memories, his image of Shelly was becoming more and more vague. However, the memory of how well she treated him was still very fresh. Despite the limited amount of times that they had interacted with each other, she still managed to leave such a deep impression on him, and Mark just couldn’t seem to understand why.

If the person who had harmed Alejandro was actually Shelly, then she must have done it for him. She must have been worried that Alejandro’s real identity of being an illegitimate son of the Tremonts would threaten him. In that case, would Arianne be the next target? Shelly had always thought that Alejandro and Arianne were both out to get him. When Mark thought about all of this, he suddenly became terrified.

The next morning, when Arianne woke up, Mark was nowhere to be seen.

She went downstairs to look for him. It wasn’t until she asked Mary that she found out that Mark had left early in the morning.

Arianne thought that Mark had gone out to continue his search for Shelly, so she did not ask any further. She thought that it would be better for her to do what she could as she helped Smore change into a fresh set of clothes.
