Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 508

Mark gave a slight nod while Arianne moved rather stiffly. She had not expected them to formally meet again under such circumstances. Despite her apprehensions, she could not chase him out now.

Once Mark settled himself down in bed, Arianne turned to the living room after closing the door for him. Laying on the couch, she was hit with a flurry of thoughts and was unable to fall asleep. No matter what, they had an unbreakable line between them. Seeing him injured, of course she would be worried.

Like her, Mark was also unable to fall asleep. He was on a video call with Jackson with a pair of Bluetooth earphones lest Arianne heard them.

When Jackson saw the wound on his forehead, he was disdainful. “That’s all? And she let you in?”

Mark’s exasperation was threatening to spill. “That’s all? My back’s looking like a beehive now; why else would she have let me in? Your idea isn’t all that mighty. I got in, but she’s sleeping on the couch. She didn’t even spare me an extra word. What do I do now? I’ll give you another chance.”

Jackson was laughing to his heart’s content. “Go big or go home, huh? How did it become a beehive? But that’s all you can hope for right now. You can’t expect to succeed in one step. It’s already good that she let you in. Repairing a relationship is very difficult. You need to take it slow. Even if I asked you to force it now, would you have the strength to do it? It’s either you use force right from the start or you take it slow like now. Since you’ve gotten yourself hurt now, you shouldn’t change your strategy, or it’d be in vain. C’mon, tell me, how did you get yourself into this state?”

Mark no longer wanted to mention the source of his frustration. “Get out! There has to be a way even if I’m taking it slow, right? What do I do next?”

Jackson pondered for a moment and said, “Keep yourself there. Just say that you haven’t arranged for a place to stay since you just got there and you didn’t bring anyone with you. She can’t ask you to stay in the hotel alone, now, can she? Now that you’re staying under the same roof as her, find a chance to get close to her. You have to express your regret. I wish you luck in melting her determination!”

Mark did not want to listen to unconstructive nonsense from Jackson so he hung up the video call directly.

Regret? How was he supposed to make up for that? Express his regret in place of his mother? His mother had done it for him…
