Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 93

Aery was already depressed. So when she saw Helen standing up for Arianne, her anger exploded in full force. “Last time you slapped me, it was because of her, and you prohibited me from scolding her. To put it harshly, she’s merely a piece of trash that you’ve discarded. She can’t be considered your daughter. Why are you protecting her so much? Is it out of guilt? You never fulfilled your responsibility as a mother to her before, so what’s with the hypocrisy?”

Helen’s expression sank. “Aery Kinsey, if I ever hear you speak of such things again, I will disown you!”

This wasn’t the first time they fought over Arianne. Aery simply couldn’t be bothered to argue with her mother. “Fine, I’m not your daughter. She is! Are you happy?”

Helen turned around and left with a dark face, locking Aery in her room. “You’ll stay in this room until you’ve calmed down. Don’t cause any more trouble for me!”

She took a whiff of the fishy smell in the porridge and found that she had no appetite for it. “Mary… I don’t feel like eating this. Can I have something that doesn’t have a fishy smell instead? Did Mark mention when he’d be back?”

“No, but he did call and say to have you call him back when you are up,” Mary replied.

Arianne quickly pulled out her phone to check—there was a missed call. She immediately called him back.

Meanwhile, Mark was at a dinner party when he heard his phone ring. This time, he had a clear look of the phone screen and confirmed that it was Arianne. He got up and said “excuse me” to the guests at his table. He walked outside and answered the call. “What is it?”
