The deal
Elle wanted to give her a reason to do a good deed and to help her, in return she would help her in meeting Alessandro and to win his heart. Thus she leaned in and gave her a serious look, Elle reached for her hand and before Mary could suspect her sudden change in behaviour, Elle spoke out to her with clear intentions. She did not want to stay there hence she blurted out the truth to her, but on the other hand Mary was unable to register what just she said. Hence her facial expressions narrated the utter confusion Mary had in her mind, Elle smiled at her naivety and realized that at the end of the day she was nothing more than just a girl who had been in love with Alessandro. Mary never wanted to hurt him instead she secretly and badly pushed all the women away from him. And what made her chose that path was the low self esteem and the fear of receiving a ‘no’ from him, after all why would he like a mere maid who had been serving him!? Hence Mary chose to push every single woman around him away so Alessandro somehow notice her, Mary’s obsession grew stronger in the past year and the hatred became immense upon seeing Elle who was nth woman he brought. “What do you mean by that?” She was still in disbelief about whatever Elle just said, while the other woman sitting on the bed rolled her eyes again over the shock. But upon seeing Mary’s genuine stunned face she suppressed her laughter and began to explain her in more clear words. The woman wanted to have her faith and trust in her at first, and for that she needed to tell her the truth. Hence Elle took the liberty to say the things from the start. She reached for Mary’s hand and pulled the woman to let her sit on the bed, while the door was still opened and left a chance for anyone to strode inside. “Let me begin from the start, Mary. I do not like Alessandro, in fact I’m already engaged to some other man and my wedding is in a few days.” Before Elle could continue Mary squeezed her hand tightly in rage, she misunderstood the whole damned situation and voiced her thoughts which were totally wrong in that moment. Mary could not figure out why Elle would say something like that. “What? It means you are cheating on your fiancee with Alessandro?” Elle noticed the sudden switch of addressing in her voice regarding calling Alessandro. Somehow it irked Elle again along with the constant thought which had been lingering in her head. Elle suspected that she had seen her somewhere and it felt familiar to her that Mary was someone she knew or might have met somewhere. But in that moment what caught her attention was the words she just spouted, Elle sighed helplessly. She did not imagine that Mary could be such a dumbass, hence she lifted her arm up and gently smacked on Mary’s head. “Owh! What the hell!” She pouted a little reflexively and made sure that Elle heard her, Elle on the other hand suppressed her anger which had been rising within her due to the words she just said. “Owh! What the hell!?” She pouted a little reflexively and made sure that Elle heard her, Elle on the other hand suppressed her anger which had been rising within her due to the words she just said. She could not admit that Mary would say something like that which was totally untrue and infuriated her. “Hey, don’t say something like that!” Elle pouted in response to the statement she gave, since it was not the truth but the woman had been jumping ahead of the conversation with her stupid assumptions. Mary on the other hand stayed sitting but this time she was calm and wanted to hear whatever Elle had to say. “No, you stupid! That is not what I meant Mary, what I’m trying to make you understand here is that I have a fiancee and your master Alessandro abducted me,” She was taken aback by what she said and stood up from the bed in shock, Mary could have never imagined that something like that could happen. Her image of Alessandro was totally different, despite knowing his unsettling and playboy nature she was in denial that he was the utmost boyfriend material. But in that moment her all the expectations got crushed by Elle, and she was unable to register something horrible like that. Mary had been having many questions in her mind which were absolutely understandable since she had never imagined anything like that from the man she loved. “What!? This can’t be true! What are you even saying?” Mary nearly jumped out of the bed again and wanted a break from all the stuff she had been saying. But the things she heard were disturbing for her, that she raised her voice in shock. The woman wanted to seek the truth now hence she lifted her hand and gestured to zip her mouth in order to indicate Elle to speak. The woman shook her head in helplessness and resumed again after a third time of disturbance. “Do you think I’m lying, huh? Think to yourself, Mary….” Elle held her one hand again and tried to sound confident as she made sure to begin from the zero again. She had to display the whole damned picture in front of Mary to make her see the truth herself. “Do you really think if I have actually loved Alessandro, then I would have tried to run away from here?” She began from the day when Elle tried to run away through the chopper but Alessandro caught her right on the time. The woman was sure that Mary would understand her point if she will pay attention closely to the things which had already been visible in front of her eyes.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
