章 337: Escaping Him Tonight

"There's no use delving into my past, Arianna," Marcel told her and this time, walked across the kitchen taking note of the neat, equipped environment.

"Not when it's affecting the future, don't you think so?" She was not close to giving up.

This time, Marcel retraced his footsteps and headed towards him while Arianna took a deep breath, trying to brace herself for whatever he had in store for her.

He stopped right in front of her saying, "Drop it, Arianna. Don't look any further. Don't be like the curious monkey who had his head cut off while trying to see what was beneath the trap. Moreover, I'm not here to argue with you - we seem to be doing that a lot lately - I'm here to apologize for my attitude earlier. You do not deserve to be treated that way and you're right, I should stop smoking. I won't anymore, that I can assure you. But you have to start respecting my space as well, stop pushing me, Arianna. "
