Chapter 306

306 Marcel Let Her Leave The Base

Two days went by in a blur and Arianna was beginning to lose it. It was as if nothing made sense anymore and most of all, the guilt was killing her. Her head was just so full of thoughts .

Okay, fine, she admits it, she missed Marcel! She missed their fight and his overbearing presence. She hardly catches a glimpse of him nowadays and Beatrice wouldn’t reveal anything about his movement, not to talk of his men.

Was he with that fiancée of his, Arianna bet? After all, he told her that he would focus on his future bride from now on. Well, hurrah! Shouldn’t she be happy about that, after all, when Marcel loses interest in her, he’d have to let her go – or kill her.

No, He wasn’t capable of that, Arianna told herself. Even if he doesn’t get Elijah or his weapons, he would let go of her for old time’s sake, right? After all, he did have feelings for her.

Sigh.....

Arianna hated being kept in the dark. Was Marcel still going on with his plans of getting his sister out or had he succumbed to his father’s demand of marrying that woman? If only he would agree to her request, she would help him avoid that fate – and not because she was jealous or something.

And did she forget to mention that Mimi had not shown up at the base since their fight. Her best friend must be really mad at her. Unfortunately, Arianna didn’t have a phone to use and contact her neither would her pride allow her to ask Victor about her.

Why should she ask a total stranger about the well-being of her own friend? Moreover, isn’t he the same person who helped kidnap and use Mimi as a form of leverage over her? What charm did he use on Mimi that she was crazy enough to have sex with him? Arianna couldn’t forgive him easily.

However, she couldn’t hold onto the grudge for far too long either. She missed her best friend; missed her company. The day had never been so boring since that day they fought. There was nobody to interest her anymore.

.....

But then, an idea hit Arianna suddenly. If Mohammed doesn’t want to go to the mountain, the mountain would come to him. Since Marcel has been avoiding him, she’d make him seek her out then.

Arianna was in the living room with her arms folded around her chest when she suddenly stood up, alerting Luca that was seated beside her.

“What is it?” he asked.

Ever since Luca started his job as her bodyguard, he became a fly she couldn’t get rid of. Even when he wasn’t close to her, he was somewhere watching and monitoring her actions – she could feel his eyes on her. And though it was annoying at times, she had to admit it was less lonely with him around her these past two hard days.

Arianna didn’t reply to him and simply stomped over to one of the men at the entrance carrying a weapon and said, “I need you to relay a message to your boss,”

The man didn’t say a word but tipped his head to the side which was a sign for her to go on. From his response, Marcel must have given them the order to listen to every of her needs.

“Tell Marcel that I need to see my friend Mimi and apologize for the way I treated her. And if he suggests that I use a phone, tell him that this matter cannot be solved with a phone call only and needs to be said face to face. And if he says, he would have her brought here, then tell him to forget I ever asked for this favor in the first place,” Arianna said to him, having thought of all possibilities.

She knew her friend, Mimi, forcing her to come here would only aggravate the whole Issue. If she still wanted their friendship to continue, she – Arianna – would have to prove it by taking the risk. Their relationship wasn’t just friendship, it’s a sisterhood that was forged out of trials and memories. She can’t lose it now.

At the same time, Arianna had an ulterior motive for suggesting this. She knew Marcel like the back of her hand, he would never let her out of here because he doesn’t trust her and knows she would escape at any slightest given opportunity.

Moreover, Marcel has this irrational fear that Elijah was waiting for the opening to snatch her away. Being out in the open would give Elijah the chance which is why Marcel doesn’t let her leave the base.

Thanks to that, Marcel would reject her proposal right away which would give her the impetus to throw a tantrum like in the past. When she does that, Marcel would have no choice but to show his face.

Was she that desperate to see Marcel? Yes, she was. She hated this silent treatment. Arianna didn’t know anyone here but him and had gotten used to his presence already. Without him here, she was like a foreigner in a strange land.

Done with her agenda, Arianna went back to her seat while the guard pulled out his phone and left, probably to inform Marcel of her demands.

“I have not known you for long but I see the word, trouble, written all over your face,” Luca commented as soon as she sat back down.

“Try being in my shoes,” She said.

“I’m in your shoes, already,”

“What?” Arianna gave him a confused look.

“You forget that I have to watch you all day long, meaning, when you’re bored, I’m bored as well. I pity you and myself. That’s two times the load. ” Luca described his situation.

“Don’t worry, you won’t be for long,” Arianna muttered as soon she saw the soldier return with the answer to her errand.

She sat upright when the soldier stood in front of her to deliver the message, saying, “The boss agrees,”

Arianna smirked knowingly, “Sure, I knew he was never going to – what?!” She misheard the answer due to her overconfidence that Marcel wouldn’t agree to her request.

Her face was full of confusion as she asked the soldier, “You mean to tell me that Marcel agreed to let me go see Mimi? To leave this place?”

That was impossible. The Marcel she knew would never do that. What was going on here?
