Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 979

Tiffany grew nervous. “Uh… Alejandro. I don’t know why.”

Jackson’s expression sunk. “He knew about your pregnancy before I did? And he knows that you’re staying with me and delivered supplements to you? These are all maternity supplements…”

She scratched her head nervously. “It’s not what you think! I told him first because I thought, what if he’s actually interested in me? This was the perfect way to get him to back off. I don’t know how he found out about me staying here though. I didn’t tell him!”

Her explanation did nothing to soothe him. Jackson’s face was just as sullen as ever. “What am I supposed to think? Am I supposed to thank him for taking such good care of my woman and baby, if it is mine?”

Tiffany was upset. “What do you mean ‘if it is mine’? Are you implying that it might not be yours? Fine. This baby is Alejandro’s. Are you happy? I had sex with him long ago. That’s why he’s so nice to me. Why have I gotten back together with you though? He has money and power too. What’s wrong with having the baby with its biological father?”

After a short altercation, the air between them calmed down. Jackson pursed his lips and lowered his head. “Pretend I never said a word. Take these gifts then, since he’s already delivered them. There’s nothing to argue about.”

Tiffany scoffed. “It’s not like these supplements are exclusive to pregnant women. Your mother and my mother are old. Why can’t they enjoy these supplements too? I’m not throwing these away; there’s no need to anyway. He’s treating me like a friend. Why should I kick him away? You’re upset over Alejandro alone. If I were to dig out your past mistakes, I would have ten thousand heart attacks! Don’t worry, I’ll do a DNA test for the baby, specifically for your assurance!”

…

Deep down, Arianne knew exactly what had happened. She let out a sigh of relief. “That’s good. I’m glad it’s settled. Get an early night’s rest.”

Mark slowed his pace. “Alejandro discarded that piece of land. I’ve checked. That’s why he never showed up to fight with me.”

Arianne’s breath caught in her throat. “Uh… Really? It doesn’t matter who has discarded it. Maybe he has too many in store, so he needs some money for turnover…”

He turned around and looked at her. “Did you really think that you could fool me? Don’t forget, I raised you. Why did you meet with him? Why did you surrender to him? I haven’t lost. I simply don’t need to fight with him. You don’t need to meddle in the company’s affairs. Can’t you just stay home and take care of the baby?”
