All Chapters of A Ruling Passion: Mr. Tremont’s Priceless Little Bride: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

He put his knife and fork down and looked at her. “Now that we’re on the subject, let me clarify this with you, all at once. That’s how I used to think; I never planned on trusting any other woman. Of course, I only saw you as a child at the time, a strange, good-looking child… As you slowly grew older, I realized that my feelings for you had changed. One day, an idea came to me — if I raised you on my own, you would turn out to be pretty obedient and would not betray me. From that day onwards, I waited for the day you would become an adult. Unfortunately… you later fell in love with someone else. How could someone like me possibly put up with having someone else take away what should be rightfully mine? About Will… You’re not still hating me over that, are you? That’s fine too. It won’t matter once you’ve fallen in love with me completely. Let me reiterate once more, I don’t have any weird kinks. The first time I developed feelings for you was after you’d already entered puberty. You

Mary grew worried at the sight of Arianne laughing with such reckless abandon. “Ari, be gentle. You’re laughing so much that your belly is shaking. Be careful…”Arianne forced herself to stop laughing. “Okay, okay. I’ll stop laughing… I just lost control… Mary, could you bring us some snacks and drinks?”As Mary slipped into the kitchen, Tiffany pulled out her phone and checked out a food delivery app. “It’s been a while since I’ve had fried chicken. I kind of want some. Are you allowed fried chicken, Ari? It should be alright to have just a little bit, right?”After a bout of hesitation, Arianne shook her head. “I don’t think I should. I crave it, but I can control myself… You know. Just order whatever you want.”“I’m not eating either,” Tanya said. “Order what you want. I’ll get fat if I have too much of it.”“Tsk tsk tsk, Tan is about to start a romance,” Tiffany said in a sour tone. “And you’re afraid of getting fat too. You never went on a diet before. Now, I’m the only one who is

She opened the door, with Summer’s jewelry in hand. When she saw Jackson, she deliberately pulled a blank face. “You’re in a good mood, doing errands for your mom?”He lifted his chin and stared down at her. “I happen to have the time. Problem?”She handed the jewelry box over to him. “Here, this is the one.”He raised his brow. “Aren’t you going to invite me inside? Afraid that I might find out that you’ve turned your house into a dog’s den?”He had successfully drawn her ire. “Would you like a slap, Jackson West? Would you?”Tanya overheard the commotion and poked her head out of the bedroom. “Who is it, Tiffie?”“My ex!” Tiffany replied through gritted teeth.Tanya gaped. “Oh… Okay. You guys talk. I’m going back to my book. I didn’t hear a thing!”Jackson continued his provocation after Tanya shut the bedroom door. “That’s right, I miscalculated. You’re staying with Tanya, so you can torture her into keeping the place clean. Didn’t you agree to go out with Alejandro this weekend? Wh

Tanya was slightly disappointed. “Is that so? But… he said that he’s always busy. However, he would always reply to my messages in around ten minutes no matter how late I messaged him. If he doesn’t care for me, certainly he wouldn’t be replying to my messages. He’s always like that. Maybe he’s just slow in getting close to people. Don’t demotivate me. I just want to meet him and treat him to a meal since I’m quite curious about him.” Tiffany felt that it would be inappropriate to discourage her since she said so. She considered it for a while and said, “Then try and ask him out directly. See if he’s willing to meet up with you. Don’t beat around the bush.” Tanya then summoned up her courage and sent him a message. Hush did not seem enthusiastic in his reply. It was just as she said; his reply always came in around ten minutes. He did not reply to her message within seconds. It appeared like he just replied to her message whenever he was free. After around nine minutes, Hush replied

Tanya looked down shyly. “My grandpa used to love gardening. I learned some of the tips while doing gardening with him in the past.” Alejandro did not care who was taking care of the flower. He thought for a while and said, “When the flower blossoms, I’ll tell you a secret.” Tiffany made a joke. “Does that mean that I don’t get to know what that secret is if the flower dies?” Alejandro made no reply. He took the glass of water, which was handed to him by Jett, and took a small sip. During their meal, Tiffany looked up subconsciously and threw a few glances at the door of the cafe from time to time. She was certainly afraid that Jackson might appear there all of a sudden. Unknowingly, she was still worried that she might be misunderstood by Jackson even though she had broken up with him. She was worried that he might misunderstand the relationship between her and Alejandro, thinking that there might be something fishy between them...It was her weak point. She always saw the world i
