Marcel didn't return that night because he was engaged in meetings, meaning that Arianna had to spend the night alone. Although she knew that Marcel didn't mean to leave her and was busy trying to find a way out of the wedding tomorrow, it still didn't stop her from missing him terribly. She missed him so badly that it was difficult to breathe.
Hence, when a knock came on her door, she glanced up with hope, thinking it was Marcel only for Mimi to peep in and her expression fell instantly. However, Arianna still managed to put on a smile for her friend.
"You don't have to try so hard, you know." Mimi knew that she was disappointed.
"I'm sorry," Arianna gave her an apologetic look, "I just thought -"
"You don't have to explain, best friend. I know what you're thinking." She told her, "Victor's away as well." Mimi walked into the room.
