833 Too Much Information

[“I’m sorry but our conversation would have to be shifted to another time, an emergency came up at the hospital. Do not wait for me, go to bed. I love you. ]

Arianna sighed in relief when that message came to her and it was from Natalie. She had been unable to relax, having a hint her mother was going to confront her about the rumored pregnancy tonight. She didn’t want to lie to her, but Marcel was right, it was the best option to keep this a secret at the moment. There were too many things going on.

[Fine, we can always have the conversation later. Love you too] Arianna responded to the message.

Tonight was going to be a boring night. With Mimi taking care of Victor, she didn’t want to bother her and Ezra was probably going to stick by her side like a goddamn sidekick – so annoying. Her step-sister Rose would have made nice company, but the girl was too inquisitive and asked questions that were quite beyond her age.

As for Elijah, she does not see him around much these days and though he had his own place, he usually used to visit them a lot but he stopped recently. It was almost as if he crawled into a hole and didn’t want to come out. Arianna didn’t bother him as well knowing that his solitude was probably related to Adele.

As much as Arianna was an enthusiastic advocate for true love, what Elijah did to Adele was unforgivable. He played her for a fool and Arianna understood Adele’s anger towards him and the guilt he – Elijah – was feeling as well.

It was like when she betrayed Marcel, although she technically didn’t betray him and had merely kept Elijah’s identity from him because she didn’t want the both of them to kill each other. Well, whatever.

The point is, Elijah was going to have to work hard in gaining Adele’s favor back if he was truly in love with her. He can’t keep on wallowing in self-pity. Regret has never helped anyone move forward. She was only going to help him gain Adele’s trust back when he – Elijah – takes the first step by reconciling with her.

With no other option left, Arianna was already contemplating calling Marcel to know how he was doing. She felt bad cutting the call abruptly on him that morning, but her mother’s message had been pretty startling.

.....

Arianna received a call from an unknown number instead and that set her brows in a frown. Not many people knew about this number because Marcel got it for her. Nonetheless, she picked up the call, her heart pounding as she had a nauseous feeling that it might be Richardo calling to threaten her.

“Hello? Who is this?” She asked, waiting in anticipation for a message. 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚

“Arianna!” Someone wailed into her ears and she had to pull the phone away, startled.

With a deep frown, Arianna stared at the screen again to discover that it was an unknown number. But then, whoever just called knew her personally and the voice sounded oddly familiar. Arianna just couldn’t detect where she heard that voice. It sounded like someone she knew and it was frustrating because the truth was right at her fingertips. She just couldn’t pinpoint it.

So she placed the phone back on her ear and said again, “Hello?”

“Arianna, you have to save me from Marcel.”

And that was it. It hit like a hammer to the head.

“Winters?”

“Yes, it’s me.”

Arianna chuckled, “What a surprise and what in the name of the lord are you talking about?”

“It’s Marcel! He’s giving me the silent treatment and Chloe says it’s the worst form of punishment. What am I going to do? I didn’t mean to keep him in the dark but I didn’t know if he was working with Niklaus Spencer and they wanted to take Akim away. It’s selfish of me but I wanted to spend more time together with Akim…!” She said all in one word.

“Alright, slow down. Take a deep breath, honey.” She told her.

“You have to come here Arianna and plead my case for me. Do your charm or whatever you do. You’re the only person he listens to anyway.” She begged him. 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚

“Fine, I’ll be there,” Arianna promised her without thinking much, only to realize the implication of what she just did, but it was too late.

“I’ll be waiting then and thank you so much. Muah!” Winters hung up before Arianna could tell her she was not exactly permitted to go over to Marcel’s place until the conflict between both families had been officially approved.

“What have you done now, Arianna?” She groaned, throwing herself on the bed and tossing around. Fine! She sat up. Arianna knew she had to do something first.

Eric was a cool person and she was sure that he wouldn’t mind her going to Marcel’s place, but the problem was her mother. If anyone had told Arianna years back that there would come a time when she would have to take permission from the mother she thought dead to go see her boyfriend, she would never believe it. Totally Unbelievable.

With her heart beating fast, she typed to her mother.

[Something came up, I need to spend the night at Marcel’s place.] She added, [Just so you know, I’m going even if you say no, I just thought to inform you as my mother and the fact that I’m currently under your roof]

Arianna sent it and waited, tapping her feet restlessly against the floor.

Almost immediately, a reply from her mother came through.

[A night only, be back tomorrow. Use protection.]

Arianna nearly choked on her saliva. Does the woman think her daughter was so horny she would only go to her boyfriend’s place for sex? Do mothers embarrass their daughters like this or was it only her?

She typed back,

[ Just so you know, Marcel has bruised ribs, and can’t perform under such conditions. Have a little faith in your daughter.]

Natalie must have her phone in hand because a response came instantly,

[Of course, I trust my daughter, but it’s her hormones and Marcel that I don’t trust. Men are like animals and they would surely find a way to stick it in no matter the circumstance.]

Alright, too much information! Arianna gave up.
