Taken By The Mafia Lord

Chapter 382

382 Time Was Running Out

“Does the search usually take this long?” Arianna asked Grace, all of them were staring at Fred and the other guy unloading their things from the back of the company bus while the soldiers searched thoroughly.

“Not really. I guess that they’re trying to show off,” Grace rolled her eyes towards heaven finding the act disgusting.

Arianna and Mimi looked at each other meaningfully. According to plans, they should have been inside thirty minutes ago but the reverse was the case here. As expected of a plan made from educated guesses, there were now many cracks to fill up. Had Marcel interviewed Grace and the others, they would have seen this coming and made backup plans.

Now, even if they went in, they couldn’t waste much time in their act of cleaning. Arianna could not stare at a watch or something since they weren’t allowed one – there were chances of the watch being bugged. If only they knew her ultimate weapon was the ring on her finger – nor could she ask for the time without arousing unnecessary suspicion, but she knew time was against them.

“If this has been going on for a while now, why do you still come back for the job?” Mimi asked them.

“We take up this job once in a while and no one in the company agrees to it except us. Hence, the boss pays us extra, and we need the money,” Miriam sighed, “It would have been endurable if they let us work in peace. But then, with you guys here, I’m sure Sébastien would be breathing down our necks.”

So the asshole’s name is Sébastien, Arianna took note of that. And she was not bothered with the part of him breathing down their necks, if anything she needed his presence the most now the plan’s switched.

If Sébastien followed them around, it would be hard to create the fire ruse because he would most likely spot the fire immediately and figure out it was their doing. So yeah, this was more reason to move on with this new plan.

Arianna knew the soldier was doing this on purpose to frustrate her in particular. Having worked with the cleaning company for a while without any hitch, they’ve already grown quite a level of trust and shouldn’t be stringent with their protocols, but someone decided to abuse his power.

.....

However, Arianna kept a calm expression throughout the ordeal even though she was anxious inside. But not long after, Sébastien was done with their annoying search and they all went to the truck, picking up one item or the other and carrying them into the house.

Sébastien and his lackey stood at the entrance, and he, in particular, watched them smugly, his arms placed behind his back. Grace led the way, alongside Mimi and Arianna, then both men at back respectfully. They had made sure to empty the contents of the bus so they wouldn’t have to return a second time – and face Sébastien’s teasing or harassment, depending on their gender.

However, just when Mimi, who was carrying a crate, was about to pass the man, she slipped and fell on Sébastien. Or maybe, she did fall on purpose and what others didn’t notice was that she touched the man inappropriately in his private area before she landed on the floor with a fake wince.

It was only Sébastien who noticed the action since his eyes went wide because he never expected it and thought it must have been a mistake only to catch Mimi secretly wink at him.

Wait a minute....

Sébastien’s chest suddenly swelled with hope, that bitch wanted him? He laughed inwardly. All this while, he thought that she hated him with her intense glare and all, who knew that the bitch was just pretending? This is why you should never trust when a girl says no because they could be tactically consenting.

He wouldn’t miss this one, Sébastien decided in his heart. Although he liked the fiery red-haired one, this one would do. Since they were from a branch abroad, Sébastien knew he had to move fast or else miss his chance and he wouldn’t see her again.

“Don’t touch me!” Mimi hissed when the man tried to help her up, intentionally putting up an act that Sébastien was able to see through. To the outside, it looked like she resented Sébastien yet she gave secret signals to the man.

The bitch wanted to play? Sébastien was game. It has been quite a while since he poked his manhood in a bitch’s hot cunt, this could be an opportunity and he couldn’t miss it. Sébastien knew many ways to get her, hence he was not worried.

Arianna was a bit worried about her friend though – she had seen through the whole acting. She couldn’t help but wonder if Mimi had gone too far? Touching Sébastien ..... Well, this was all for the plan. She would just have to be alert and watch out for her friend else that animal tries something beyond their scheme.

They arrived at a room where they quickly changed into their working attires and were ready to go. As the one in charge, Arianna assigned everyone the wings to take care of, and intentionally gave her and Mimi the quarters closest to the control room and no one questioned her decision having no idea of their real agenda.

Everyone picked their tools and set to work. Arianna and Mimi headed to their destination as well and along the way, she couldn’t help but notice the number of cameras and their area of coverage.

She felt the ring around her finger, hoping to God that this ring worked and was truly able to do those abracadabra Winters had spoken or else they’re doomed, especially now, that she had this risky plan in mind. She didn’t need any evidence for what she had in mind, which meant all the cameras had to malfunction.

In one word, both women vigorously cleaned their assigned apartment so that one wouldn’t even suspect they were up to foul play. However, there was a little problem, Sébastien had not appeared and time was running out.
