Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 1749

A certain someone stepped inside with a bouquet of flaming red roses. He placed them on the table in front of her and announced, “Someone gave this to me. Frankly, I have no love for it, so it’s yours now.”

Arianne spied the bouquet with a side-eye. The flowers’ freshness was so overwhelming and evident that there was no way he did not buy it for her. Yet, the same man wanted to pretend otherwise just to save his thin skin!

“Urgh, I don’t like it. Throw it away.”

Mark turned exasperated. “Why you—don’t step out of line!”

She scowled at him. “Hey, hey, hey! You said ‘someone’ gave you this bouquet, and you only gave it to me because you yourself don’t want it. And now I’m telling you I don’t want it either—how’s that ‘stepping out of line’, huh? If anything, you’re stepping out of your line by giving away a beautiful gift someone clearly took pains to give you! Though I have to wonder… Which young lady dares present you such bright red roses, hmm? They’re so fiery red, I can see the flames of her passion and infatuation toward you!”

Mark was so furiously stumped by her that his tongue gave up on a repartee. Instead, he hissed something about letting Arianne do whatever she pleased with it before storming upstairs.

Arianne picked the bouquet up after he left and breathed in its rich fragrance—premium roses, fresh with beads of water adorning their petals, as lovely as they were demure. She admitted that rather than seeing a no-gooder throwing tantrums, she would very much rather feast her eyes upon a bouquet of beautiful flowers!

During dinner, Mary whispered into Arianne’s ears, “Um, what’s with Mr. Tremont? I told him to come downstairs for dinner, but that fella just mumbled something like ‘I’m already full… of steam!’. Whatever in the world is that supposed to mean?”

Arianne sputtered into a chortle. “Oh, leave him to me, Mary. I’ll drag him here.”

“God Almighty! A long time ago, you wouldn’t have the moxie to challenge him like that!” Mary exclaimed after a sigh. “But now? Look at how the tides have turned!”
