Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 422

Ethan gave Tiffany a half-smile and asked her coldly, “Are you sure you’re not just trying to get me to grovel until you’re satisfied to get back at me? I’ve made it very clear that I admit that I have mistreated you in the past. I’m wearing my heart on my sleeves now when I’m around you. What else do you want me to do? You can torture me or do whatever you want. I wish to have a home. A home that belongs to us. My only condition is to get married. I can’t wait that long. You can do whatever you want, I can agree to anything you want. All I want is for us to get married. I don’t want to fight with you today. I just want to have a good chat with you about this. Think clearly before answering me. I’m afraid I won’t be able to control myself.”

Although Ethan had softened his attitude slightly, Tiffany could still feel how forceful he was behind his compromise. Her only condition was to not get married too early which clashed with his only condition of getting married. She mulled over it for a moment before she spoke, “My only condition is to not get married too early, which happens to be completely opposite of yours. This is where the problem lies. You can either work out a solution or we can continue fighting about it. I’ll leave it up to you.”

Ethan did not get angry as she had expected. “Of course we’ll have to work out a solution. Now that you mentioned it, I thought of something else. You only refuse to get married now, right? I’m fine with that if you move in with me. That should be fine with you, right?”

Tiffany was taken aback. Living together? Although they had spent a lot of time under the same roof when they were dating for three years, they had never consummated their relationship. It was at this moment that she hesitated. Logically speaking, his request was reasonable. Since she only wanted to delay the wedding, this request was worth considering.

“Why don’t you let me think about it first.” Tiffany did not instantly give him an answer. After all, she was still rather uncomfortable at the thought of living together with Ethan.

“I don’t want to hear that kind of answer anymore. I’ve been considerate of your feelings to leave aside my plans of getting married. Can’t we just live together? We’d dated for so long. If I was only after your body, we would have done that a long time ago. I need an answer now. You’ll either move in with me or we’ll get married in a month. The choice is yours,” he issued an ultimatum.

Tiffany knew there was no more room for negotiation. Now that she thought about it, if Ethan had wanted to consummate their relationship during those three years, she would have agreed without any hesitation. He was actually the one who wanted to wait until they were married so he never touched her. So… it would seem like there was nothing for her to hesitate about. “Alright, I’ll move in after two days. I have to make some arrangements with my mom first. She can’t even take care of herself.”

In order to prevent future troubles, Ethan had already come up with a solution. “I’m not used to living with elders. I’m sure your mom probably doesn’t want you to look over her shoulders all day long either so I’m planning to have her move into a house near mine and hire a housekeeper to take care of her needs. I’ll pay for all the expenses. Go back and discuss this with your mom. I’ll come and get you in two days.”

He spoke so naturally that everything seemed like it was well within his plans.

Tiffany could not help but feel she had been forced or manipulated into this.

Ethan might seem like he was pressuring her into getting married on the surface, but it felt like he was actually waiting for her to agree to move in with him instead…

That night at the Tremont Estate…
