Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 1777

Now, who would say no to a vacation? Arianne immediately waved her phone before chirping, “Well, then! Lemme ask for a half-day break from my Fearless Leader. Relax, I’ll have it settled in one late afternoon. Anything that’s gotta sway things to your favor, I’ll say ‘em. Remember to treat me to a good hearty meal for this!”

...

After her lunch with Mark, Arianne headed straight to the Smith Estate.

Melanie was tidying Alejandro’s clothes in the bedroom. Every shirt and suit she had touched was spotless and mint as though it were bought yesterday, stacked in the most orderly row one could imagine. Each of them had a scent, too; a faint, but distinct fragrance resembling Melanie herself—refined, prim, fetching, and a little bit mulish deep inside.

“All this is your handiwork?” Arianne exclaimed in shock. Ever since things were official between Mark and her, Arianne had never deigned herself to any of these chores. With her mind always trained toward developing her career, domestic chores just never crossed her mind. Who would have thought that a young woman of standing raised in a privileged family would get her hands dirty on menial chores—and to do them to such sterling degree made it obvious that Melanie had ample chances to hone her skill.

Melanie looked up at her and flashed a smile. “Yea. He really hates it if any of his shirts spots a single wrinkle. Seriously, any furrow in his shirt is a furrow in his eyebrows, and then he’ll nag the ears of the nanny for a bit. In the end, I decided to just come in and do it myself,” she explained. “He told me he was going to properly discuss our divorce tonight, so here I am, tidying and sorting his clothes before he pulls his hair trying to find the shirt he wants but can’t. You’re free enough to pay me a visit, Arianne? Aren’t you supposed to be busy in the office?”
