Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 1408

Arianne gnashed her teeth hatefully. “That hypocrite. I wish he was dead! Thank goodness Sonya didn’t go along with him. She handed her shares over to me.”

“Mm,” Mark replied, then got down from bed and went to the bathroom. She awkwardly averted her gaze but couldn’t help stealing a few more glances.

After breakfast, Mark went to the office straightaway. Arianne stood at the doorway with Aristotle, watching his car leave. It was as if they were transported back to the past, another typical morning.

Of course, Seaton had heard of Mark’s return. He never expected this, not in a thousand years. His plan was completely foiled and his confidence disappeared into a puff of smoke. Mark’s return signaled the return of Tremont Enterprises at its peak. He was no match for that. He quickly sold his mansion and fled from the country, hiding himself away as far as possible. Having known Mark for so many years, they knew each other well enough.

Even so, he still feared retribution from Mark. Hence, it was now his turn to be plagued with nightmares.

Aerse had been thoroughly used by Seaton. Now that Mark was back, in a bid to be reinstated as a shareholder of Tremont Enterprises, he approached him to betray Seaton.

Of course, Mark allowed him to see him.

“Seaton Bart has crossed the line,” Aerse snapped indignantly. “He started plotting against Tremont Enterprises right after your shipwreck and forced Mrs. Tremont into taking multiple loads in order to overcome that hurdle. He even threatened me, forcing me to help collect shares from the other shareholders. I had no choice but to agree. You’re probably not familiar with his methods. I have a family, I was scared… Mr. Tremont, I’m so glad that you’re back. I never wanted a divestment. Could you please reinstate my shares?”

Mark would rather see Aerse than Alejandro. He wasn’t sure why.

However, he let Alejandro in anyway. He did not plan on chatting with Alejandro. “What is it?” he asked as he buried his head in work.

Seeing his reaction, Alejandro knew that their relationship would not improve just because they both had a near-death experience. Hence, Alejandro did not try to curry favor. “Nothing, I’ve only heard about your miraculous survival, so I came here to see if it’s true. I’d have to live in guilt for a while if you were really dead.”
