Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 1167

After arriving in the office, Arianne had just sat down when Robin greeted her. “How was your Christmas, Arianne? I’m glad to see you on the first day back at work.

Arianne had prepared a small gift for her. “Here, this is for you. Consider it a belated Christmas gift.”

Robin accepted the gift. An expression of delight and shyness could be seen on her face. “Thank you. I haven’t gotten you a present… By the way, I heard that a really talented fashion designer is joining the company. He’s extremely handsome. However, he hasn’t arrived yet. It seems like he’s late on his first day. Honestly, favored employees have nothing to fear.”

Based on Robin’s description, it seemed like this designer was more experienced than her. For that reason, Arianne was curious. “How talented is he? Is he more talented than me?”

“Oh, I’m just saying,” Robin replied with a smile. “You’re the most talented designer to me. No one can ever live up to you. I only overheard it from the people in the office so I repeated the words I heard to you.”

Arianne smiled. “Fine, stop gossiping. Aren’t you a permanent employee now? Get back to work.”

Robin’s so-called genius fashion designer sauntered into the office at 10 AM. He was 2 hours late. He was, indeed, handsome, but in a metrosexual way. He was tall and exuded charisma. He embodied every woman’s ideal aesthetic, but that did not include Arianne. Perhaps, she was weird or maybe because Robin had already told her about how handsome he was, but she did not feel anything when she met him in person.

The corners of Arianne’s lips twitched. This man had a strange and stiff way of speaking. What rumors? She felt as though he was describing a mythical creature. She smiled awkwardly as she shook his hand. “Hello, you flatter me. I joined the fashion design world a little late. I don’t have much experience so I can’t compare to a senior like you.”

Sylvain did not let go of her hand immediately. Instead, he lowered his head and studied the ring on her finger. “This is a very nice ring, design and material-wise.”

Arianne was beginning to feel very awkward. This strange man’s temperature was like fire, burning so hot. It made her feel unsettled. She removed her hand from his grip expressionlessly before she said, “My husband gave it to me. He designed it himself. I think it’s beautiful too. Aren’t we having lunch? Let’s go. By the way, can Robin join us as well? The more the merrier, right?”
