Following their gaze, Arielle turned around and rubbed her brow wearily when she located the object of their consternation.
Didn't we agree to let me speak to them beforehand before she showed herself? Why can't she hold it in? I was about to open my mouth.
“I can’t believe you found her, Ari. You're really good,” Sonia exclaimed, turning to look at Arielle after shooting daggers at Lorraine.
She had developed a vehement hatred for her kidnapper at the memory of how the few men had almost violated her.
Lawrence was also gazing admiringly at Arielle. He was delighted that Arielle had succeeded where he had failed.
“Men, take her in!" Lawrence ordered as he redirected his gaze toward Lorraine.
She must be sick of living to abduct my daughter!
“Hang on!" Arielle said hastily when the sentry took a step toward Lorraine.
Lawrence and Sonia looked at her in puzzlement.
“This is between me and them, Boss. You don't have to intervene.” Lorraine did not wish to put Arielle in a difficult position. She then turned to Sonia and Lawrence. “Sonia is aware of my reason for kidnapping her. I just wanted to take back what was mine, but I went about it the wrong way.”
Lorraine looked Sonia in the eye and continued, “I have never intended to hurt you. I was going to set you free after taking back what belonged to me, but I did not expect the men to be bold enough to lay their hands on you. I threw them to the sharks after I found out about it.”
