Chapter 7

Adrien's POV

Adrien sees the look on his dad's face he was proud but also thinking, planning. Adrien didn't know what to think he was mostly filled with fear, then he turned and saw her face and was filled with calm. She was his calm. It was crazy, he can't let his dad manipulate her he has to get the earrings himself.

"Hello father" he says trying to sit up

"Good evening Mr. Agreste" Marinette added

Marinette's POV

Marinette saw Mr. Agreste and his face and became very suspicious. He looked like his evil plan worked just by seeing her and Adrien's in love faces.

She looked down and saw Adrien giving her a very loving stare. She gave him a small smile, kissed his temple then sat in the chair next to Gabriel.

"Miss Dupain-Cheng it seems you and my son are very much in love"

"Yes sir"

"I would like to apologize for arguing with you in the ambulance."

"I forgive you Mr. Agreste"

Gabriel's POV

A smile creeps across Gabriel's lips. His plan is really coming together.

"Father…" Adrien croaks

"Yes Adrien"

"I really like… love Marinette and I can't do anything to hurt her" Adrien hints

Gabriel wonders if his son is saying he isn't going through with the plan.

"What are you saying son?"

"Nothing sir" Adrian says retracting his initial statement

"Anyway father both Marinette and I don't remember how we met"

"Oh son it was at a café you bonded over knowing me and being 16"

"Thank you father, now I remember it"

They hear a snore and see Marinette started sleeping. Adrien smiles sweetly noticing her beauty even in sleep. Adrien eyes start to feel heavy, the lateness of the night was catching up with him. He fell asleep peacefully.

Gabriel took the opportunity to sneak away. He took his limo to his lair under his palace. He used this place to think about how to sacrifice adrien. There were so many ways now time to decide.
