Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 1378

Mary burst into tears when she saw the current state of both mother and son. “Don’t worry, Mrs. Tremont. You work in peace; leave Aristotle with me. He’s still young, so he won’t understand. But he will when he’s older.”

Arianne nodded. She had breakfast then went to the office. She was in a much better state today. At least, she managed to hold it in in Mark’s office, instead of bursting into tears. She had no time to cry. She had a lot to learn and very little time to do it. She wished that she could separate one minute into two.

“Would you like something to eat, Mrs. Tremont?” Davy asked during lunch time when he noticed that she seemed to have no plans to go out for lunch. “Shall I order a delivery?”

“No thanks, I’m not hungry,” she replied, waving her hand. “I’m going to nap for a while, as I’m a bit tired.” She had only slept for a short while last night and she couldn’t stand any longer.

Davy grunted in reply and went out.

She was tired, yet she could not sleep. After some thought, she pulled out her phone and called Jackson. “Jacskon, I have something to discuss with you. Please come over and speak to me when you have the time.”

This was Jackson’s first time seeing her so stern. The tone in her voice alone was enough to tell him that something had happened. “Sure, I’ll come over at once. I happen to be free now. Are you at Tremont Estate?”

“I’m in Mark’s office,” she replied.

Tiffany agreed with Jackson. “I feel the same! This happened to Mark when he followed him to the yacht. He could have been absolved if he died with him, but he was the only one that returned. I don’t believe that this has nothing to do with him! I thought he had become a better man. I didn’t think that it would turn out this way! How could he do this? Mark is dead. What’s gonna happen to you and Smore?”

Arianne reached up and tucked her hair behind her ear, feeling helpless. “I’ve tested him. It’s not him. I can feel it. I offered to hand Tremont Enterprises over to him, but he refused to take it. If he killed Mark, wouldn’t Tremont Enterprises have been his motive? He said that he checked the yacht before they left, but there was nothing wrong with it. But there was a setback, and the weather happened to be bad at the time. However, the waves in the sea were not enough to sink the yacht. The lifeboats were all destroyed when they tried to escape. Someone else is behind this. I don’t have time to investigate now. I… I don’t even have time to hold Smore.”

Jackson grew suspicious when he heard this. Was it really not Alejandro? He trusted Arianne’s judgement but was worried that her grief had clouded her judgement. “You should have told me sooner. How could you possibly manage to hold it all in? My mom is taking care of Plato at the moment, maybe she can help you. You’ve never had experience in running a company, so it’ll be difficult for you to do it all of a sudden. How about we let Tiffie take care of Plato for a while, so that my mom can help you out?”
