Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 1640

In order to not leave a good impression of himself on Saoirse, Mark deliberately wore something casual and refused to tidy himself up. It would be best if she did not have a good impression of him.

When Mark went downstairs, he casually walked towards the sofa and sat down. Then, he deliberately sized up Saoirse for a moment frivolously, which made him look like a debauchee. “Did you come alone?”

Saoirse blushed after being scanned by Mark with his frivolous eyes. She was too nervous to even meet his gaze, which made it obvious that her heart was fluttering. “Y-yes... I was invited over by Mrs. Leigh to visit your house after we met up over a cup of tea a few times previously. That’s why…”

Not beating around the bush, Mark said, “How could she be inviting you just to visit our house when she’s clearly asking you to come here for a matchmaking session? I’ve been married once and have a son who’s over two years old, so I have no plans on having another child. Are you happy with that?” What Mark was trying to say was that the Tremonts would only have Smore as Mark’s one and only son.

Saoirse nervously raised her hand and pulled back the hair by her ears, her actions being all too similar to Arianne’s. “I’m aware of everything that you’ve just said. Mrs. Leigh has already told me about it. I-I… don’t really mind it… However, what I do mind is whether you would still be in close contact with your ex-wife. I believe you should have some recollection of my father since the two of you have been in collaboration with each other for many years now. We’ve never met before, but I’ve always been curious about the kind of person you are. Now that I’ve met you today, you’re really different from how I imagined.”

Mark lit up a cigarette, as based on his knowledge, women normally dislike the smell of tobacco. “What’s different?”

Saoirse secretly shot a glance at him. “I used to think that you would be how others have described you, which is a cold person. However, after meeting you today, I know that what they said isn’t true. Although you’ve got a bad temper, you’re… sincere. I-I… really love that…”

Love?

Saoirse politely smiled as she said, “Thank you, Mrs. Leigh. Tremont Estate is truly beautiful, especially the pasture out by the patio. Am I correct to assume that they’re all plants that you like?”

Shelly truly liked Saoirse from the bottom of her heart. “Is that so? I was the one who decorated it. I just had it revamped a few days ago. It seems like we’ve got very similar tastes. What a coincidence.”

Saoirse knew how to impress her elders. With a gentle and timid voice, she said, “Mrs. Leigh, many people would be envious of Mark for having such a wonderful aunt.”

Naturally, Shelly would not reveal the truth about how she was Mark’s real mother, since it was a shameful incident for the Tremonts that should not be made known to the public, no matter how much Shelly dreamt of letting the entire world know that Mark was her son. In the end, Shelly changed the subject without being fazed in the slightest. “Saoirse, you carry on talking to Mark while I check up on the condition of the pot of flower I just bought yesterday. I’m worried that it may not be able to survive.”
