Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 1650

The couple continued their jest and banters as they went into their bedroom.

Arianne was surprised to see Mark’s nightshirt in the room, which was prepared by Mary. The last time he left with no promise of coming back, Mary had washed his clothes and kept them safe. She had thought he was never going to need these clothes again.

As though he had read what was in her mind, Mark took up the nightshirt and stated, “I’m going for a quick shower. You… look forward to it on our bed.”

It sounded awkward enough that Arianne rolled her eyes. “By the time you’re done, I’ll already be sound asleep.”

He suddenly bent forward and breathed in her ear, “You promised me something else today, though. Are you breaking that promise? I’ve never taught you how to lie…”

The warmth tickling her ear and the magnetism in his dulcet voice became a double-whammy combination that turned her body into jelly. Immediately, she shoved him toward the direction of the bathroom. “Grr—just go already!”

Mark’s exuberant, devilish cackle was only muffled somewhat because of the bathroom door.

Arianne rubbed her slightly burning cheeks in slight dismay. This was no good—he rarely flirted with her, but every time he did, she immediately became weak. Just the thought of Mark possibly doing something similar to that with some other woman, since they were divorced, was dispiriting.

Sometimes, in the middle of the quiet night, Arianne wondered if their divorce had been the right call to make. But every time she started wondering if she should have taken the concession path instead, Shelly-Ann Leigh leaped into her mind, and suddenly, all thoughts came to a halt. This, right here, was the biggest impediment. Because of her, Arianne could never try other methods. The feud between her and Shelly was simply destined to be unresolved and impossible to banish forever.

It was a long, silent wait, though occasionally, Arianne was reminded of what was to come and felt tiny moments of excitement and anticipating chills. Still, all she could do right now was listen to the drizzle of water escaping out of the bathroom door, so in her boredom, she turned Mark’s phone on.
