Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 401

After dinner, Mark and Arianne went directly back to the Tremont Estate.

When Ethan sent Tiffany home, he took out the ring once again. “Tiffie, can you give me an answer now?”

Tiffany felt rather suffocated. “Ethan… I’m sorry, I haven’t made up my mind yet.”

Ethan frowned and set the ring aside. “You told me that you would give me an answer by the time I’m discharged from the hospital. There’s either love between us or there isn’t. Is it such a difficult decision to make? Did you fall in love with someone else already during the time we were apart?”

Tiffany rolled down the car window and took deep breaths to make herself feel better. “No… I… I’m just worried that my mom would be upset. You know how she is. She’s unstoppable once she starts a tantrum…” At a time like this, she could only use her mother as an excuse. Although she couldn’t resist Ethan’s sweet talks, simply accepting his proposal didn’t seem to sit well with her either…”

Ethan gritted his teeth then took a deep breath. “If your mom is really the only problem that you’re worried about, then leave her to me. I won’t ask you for an answer until it’s solved. For a moment there, I just thought that you had fallen for someone else and the thought of that scared me.”

Fallen for someone else? Jackson’s face popped into Tiffany’s mind. Feeling flustered deep down in her heart, she hung her head low and didn’t say another word.

After a brief silence, Ethan made a suggestion. “Why don’t you quit your current job and work at my company? I’ll arrange a high-paying, easy job for you. You can stop working after we get married in the future; I’ll take care of you financially. I am now capable of giving you a good life. I managed to obtain the land under that unfinished building. Do you know who the original owner of that piece of land was? Your family. Mark bought it off and gave it to me as a gift. We’ll work hard together from now on. Life will definitely get better.”

Tiffany was quite surprised to hear that Mark had bought the land for Ethan. Furthermore, she hadn’t thought about resigning from her job either. “I’m only good at designing. Joining your company is like getting paid for nothing and that’d make me feel bad. I’m doing pretty good at Bright Incorporated.”

Ethan slammed on the brakes abruptly, causing the tires to screech against the road loudly. The expression on his face turned frosty. “Are you refusing to resign from your job because you’re reluctant to part with that job or is it because you’re reluctant to part with a certain someone? You only need a job. I can offer you a higher pay and easier job. There’s no reason for you to not accept it. From what I know, your career isn’t developing very well at Jackson West’s company. You were always just winging it back in the university, how good could you possibly be at your job?”

Ethan wasn’t wrong and his words choked Tiffany into silence. It was true that she wasn’t doing very well at Jackson’s company, and she even felt guilty when receiving her salary. But why did she subconsciously reject Ethan’s request of having her resign from the job?
