A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride novel Chapter 85

Tiffany grabbed her wrist. “Come, let’s get away from this place!”

Arianne couldn’t understand this. “You have to explain this to me… I can’t leave. Mark would get upset if I leave…”

“He doesn’t even care if you live or die. Why should you care if he gets angry? I can practically see through him. He doesn’t love you, he’s torturing you! He wants to take your life!” Tiffany was close to losing it. Her expression was a horrific sight.

Arianne was at a loss from her reaction. “Tiffie… What are you saying?”

Tiffany was now flustered and exasperated. “Do you know whose engagement party this is? Will Sivan’s! I didn’t want to tell you. I found out about it when I spoke to Will yesterday. How could Mark possibly not know this? He knowingly brought you here. Does he want to see you in pain? Or to provoke Will? I don’t know if you love Will or not, but Will loves you. He’s agreed to this arranged marriage by his family, just so that he could come back to the country and be a little closer to you, to see you. He didn’t even know what the bride looks like until today. These were Mark’s conditions. His engagement is his only ticket back into the country. Do you understand?”

Arianne was in shock. She stared at Mark, who was laughing cheerfully with the people around him, standing amongst the crowd. She had difficulty believing this… How could he stoop to this level? How could he do this…

Tiffany had long anticipated her reaction. “Let’s go, Ari. I’ll take you away from this place. I’ll bear all of the consequences that may follow.”

“What are you going to bear? It’s just an engagement party. There’s no need to exaggerate.” Jackson West and Eric Nathaniel approached them, holding glasses of champagne in their hands.

Tiffany felt slightly embarrassed when she saw Jackson. She did not forget how the man had forced her into calling him “daddy” at the carpark. “Get lost. This is none of your business.”

Jackson looked at Arianne. “Your affairs are none of my business, but her… I have to address her as ‘sister-in-law’. Stop struggling, it’s useless.”
