"Here is Mari." Sabine said as she and Mari walked to the living room. Adrien stood up and smiled at her Mari smiled back brightly. "Greet Adrien Mari." Sabine said gently. Mari walked up to him and looked at him for a few seconds before hugging him, and he hugged her back.

They were hugging for a long time that Lila got irritated. "The coffee will get cold."

They broke the hug. "I'm glad that you came back I felt so alone well the Mrs. was here for me just like the rest were in my path. It went great for you right?"

Adrien nodded. "Yes Mari it went well for me."

"So did you see the star?" Mari asked curiously.

Adrien smiled. "Yes a lot of stars Mari."

"How cute." Lila walked in between them. "Do you guys have a secret code between the two or do you guys just like astronomy?" There was a long pause between the two. "Will you guys explain to me about the stars?"

"It's just a joke between Mari and I Lila." Adrien finally said.

Mari smiled. "You know I saw your picture in the newspaper, and I cut it and have it safe in my room so no one can it take."

Adrien smiled softly. "How have you behaved?"

"I think that alright." Mari replied.

"We'll talk about it later Adrien." Tom stated.

"C"mon Tom." Sabine pleaded softly.

"She has behaved, she has done some errors, but we need to just teach her how to have manners little by little." Lila said softly looking at Mari. "Poor thing she has never lived with civilian society."

Mari crosses her arms. "I'm not from the wild without clothes or have eaten anyone or anything besides food."

"She says such funny things." Lila giggled.

"Well Mari since you behaved this whole time I got you a gift." He hands her a gift bag, and she smiled brightly. She bended down and put it on the coffee table and opens it Adrien bended next to her as she did so. She took it out but did not know what it was. It was like a gumball machine but instead of gum balls there was an angel inside. She looked at Adrien confused. "Shake it." He said gently.

She shook it, and sparkles started moving inside. "Cool what do I use it for?"

"Well it's just for decoration." Adrien replied with a smile.

"Its cool for my room." She shakes it again. "You should see how amazing I left it. Thank you." She kisses his cheek.

Adrien smiled before handing everyone else in the room the gifts, he got them. Lila opened hers to find a perfume, she opened it and smelled it. "It smells amazing."

"I would have liked to know what kind you use so I could've gotten it for you." Adrien replied.

"Well now, you know since from now on I'll only use this one. I'll use it the day of my party, I'll use it for the first time just for you." Lila said with a flirty smile.

"I also did something just for you." Mari mocked Lila in the end. She took the vase of flowers on the coffee table and stood up handing it to him. "I cut these from the garden with permission of Mrs. Sabine of course. Aren't they beautiful."

Adrien smiled. "They are very pretty thank you Mari. Now if you guys excuse me I have to go."

"You know that my party is this weekend, and of course I count on your presence." Lila said softly.

"Yes count on me." Adrien replied politely.


Adrien drove back home, and he couldn't help think about Mari.

"I'm glad that you came back I felt so alone."

He sighs. "I need to take her out from my head and heart. It just can't be."


Holding the picture of Adrien and the gift, he got her Mari sat on her bed and made a phone call. "Hello Ru it's Mari."

Ruby smiled. "How are you did you see my brother?"

"Of course, he just left a white ago you should see the amazing gift he got me." Mari couldn't help but giggle a bit.

"Mari did you get a chance to tell him what happened with Roland?" Ruby asked concern.

"I couldn't tell him in the mess I am in. Plus there were a lot of people I couldn't talk alone with him." Mari sighs.

"He will still find out most likely Roland's side of the story." Ruby reminded her.

"I know I do want to tell him, but I don't know how Ruby. I mean with my pass, he probably won't believe me that I had nothing to do with Roland's accident and think that I hitted Roland on the head and left him blind."

"That's why it's best for you to tell him before he finds out about it from someone else." Ruby said softly.

"You know Ru I called Roland at Mathew's house, and he's making me see him dally. He told me if I don't he'll still accuse me to the police. I would have to do it in secret since this family wouldn't let me out. The judge knows Roland from the delegation what do I do Ru?" Mari asked.

"Tell Adrien the truth." Ruby repeated.

What Mari didn't know was that someone on the other side of the door heard the conversation from the part 'I hitted Roland...'


Isabella went to Lila's room excitedly. "We have it Lila, we have it."

"We have what?" Lila asked confused.

"The reason to kick the street rat from this house. The street rat is in a huge mess." Isabella said happily.

"Does her nightmares exist?" Lila asked excidedly now.

"No it has nothing to do with that it's worst the streat rat hitted a guy named Roland on the head very hard." Lila rolled her eyes. "Girlie she hitted him so hard that he became blind, and he wants to send her to jail. Do you know what Tom will do when he finds out?"

"Kick her out." Lila squealed happily. "Let's go tell him now."

Lila heads to the door, but Isabella stops her. "No, not now he needs to find out in the morning."


The next morning Lila and Isabella walked to the garden where Tom was eating they greeted him before sitting down. Tom noticed the concern look on their faces. "What's the matter?'

"We need to talk with you." Lila replied.

"What's wrong?" Tom asked concern.

"It's something dedicated that I found out, and I feel obligated to let you know about it." Isabella replied.

"What is it about?" Tom asked confused.

Isabella sighed. "It's about Mari and a crime she committed."


"Does your brother know what happened?" Mathew asked as he sat on a couch in the Agreste household.

"No Mari hasn't told him anything yet." Ruby sighs sitting on the other couch. "She's afraid that he won't believe her."

"Well Rolled is determined to tell him." Mathew informed her.

"Hay Mathew do you think that if Mari declines to see him every day he'll accuse her to the police?"

He sighs. "I think so."


"She hitted him and he became blind now he wants to accuse her to the police. She didn't want to say anything, not even to her protector Adrien." Isabella said finishing the story.

Lila sighs. "She was seeing him in secret behind your back...I can't believe it."

"I can and even more I told you that girl was in a problem." Tom looks at Plagg. "Plagg."

"Yes sir?" He asked.

"Tell Sabine to meet me at my study and don't say anything about what you heard. Then go to that insolent girl and bring her to us yourself understood?" Tom added.

"Yes sir right away." Plagg walked away.

"You guys come with me." Tom stood up as the two women did as well, and they followed him inside.


"Ruby is right Teddy, I need to talk to Adrien and tell him what happened." Mari sighs as she pets Teddy. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. "Come in."

Plagg walked inside the room. "Mr. Tom wants me to take you to the study."

Mari stood up still holding Teddy. "What for?"

"I don't know he'll tell you when we get there." He said softly. "You might want to leave Teddy here just to be safe."

Mari nodded and put Teddy gently on the bed before following Plagg out.


Roland was hearing music when he hears a knock on the door. He turns the music off and puts his sunglasses on and stands up before walking to the door pretending that he couldn't see since there was a window next to the door. He opened the door. "Who is it?"

"Are you Roland Rople?" The man standing at the doorway asked.


Why have you united us here Tom?" Sabine asked standing next to Tom. She, Tom, Isabella, and Lila were in the study.

"I'm going to make a decision, and I want you guys to be present." Tom replied sternly. "Especially you Sabine." There was a knock on the door. "Come in."

Plagg opened the door, and Mari walked inside slowly. "What's this about?" Sabine asked curiously.

"You'll see." Mari sits on a chair across from him. "You that have protected her defended her told me that she was good and innocent will learn right now what she did."

"What did you do?" Sabine asked Mari concern.

Mari looked at her. "I-"

"First of all, she is still hanging out with the group of delinquents from the delegation in secret especially with that director." Tom said interrupting her.

"Don't say lies." Mari looked at Tom.

"Are you going to deny it?" Tom asked sternly at her.

Sabine looked sad. "You kept seeing that man Mari?"

"That part is true I have seen him, but it wasn't in secret I went with Ruby." She crosses her arms.

"Well Tom just because she has seen him doesn't mean to make a big scene over it." Sabine stated.

"That's not it there's much more she had a fight with him, and she hitted him on the head to the point of leaving him go blind, and he wants to send her to prison which she should be." Tom replied.

"Is that true?" Sabine asked shocked.


"Who are you and what do you want?" Roland asked the man.

"I'm Nino Lahiffe Mari's boyfriend, and I'm looking for you." Nino stated.

"Mari's boyfriend? And what do you want?" He asked a bit irritated.

"I'm here to demand you to leave Mari alone." Nino demanded him.


"Please Mathew convince Roland not to talk with my brother." Ruby said as she walked Mathew to the front door.

"I don't know what to do I won't promise you anything Roland is stubborn. Anyway glad to have become friends with you." He extends his hand to her and Ruby smiled shaking it before he walked away.


"Did you really hit that man and left him blind?" Sabine was still in shock.

"No." Mari replied softly. "I had nothing to do with his accident."

"So why does he want to send you to prison?" Sabine asked curiously.

"Don't ask her for explanations." Tom said irritated.

"Let her explain Tom." Sabine looked st Mari. "Mari you know that you can't see that group why did you do it?"

"It was after his accident, he threatened me that if I didn't go and see him; he would accuse me for his accident even though I had nothing to do with it." Mari said starting to tear up. "I did go but not alone I went with Ruby to be safe."

"All lies." Tom said emotionless.

"I'M NOT LYING!" Mari yelled desperately.

"Don't raise your voice at me." Tom demanded. "You are no one to yell at me at my house insolent girl!"

"And who are you? A JERK!" Mari yelled still crying.

"STOP IT!" Tom stands up furiously.

"WHY DO YOU HAVE AGAINST ME?!" Mari stands up just as furious.


"Mathew informed Fu that you want to force Mari to come see you daily, and I don't thank that's right that's not fair." Nino said with a serious face. "You are blackmailing her."

"What did you expect? I can't defend myself now. My life is destroyed, I had my job as a director for T.V and theater. I was a noble director who was close to fame but now everything is over and now you think it is too much what I'm asking Mati to do? Leave!" Roland pointed out the door pretending to cry. Nino walked out as Roland took his sunglasses off and started laughing.


Mari sat back down still crying, and Sabine walked over to her and hugged her. "Tears won't justify her crime." Tom said emotionless. "And even though she can't go to prison because there's no accusation, I as Judge can't let her crime be forgotten. She commented a crime and there's a victim. This delinquent can't stay in this house any second longer in this house."


"Tell me my queen do you want to see animals from a circus?" Emilie asked Maya.

"Are you being serious grandma Emilie?" Maya asked excitedly.

"Have I ever lied to you?" Emilie asked playfully.

"Of course not." Maya replied happily.

"Than let's play." Suddenly, a circus appeared and Maya smiled happily as they saw the circus.


Sabine looked at Tom. "Tom please-"

"I'm sorry Sabine." Tom sat back down on his chair. "I don't think it's convenient to have a girl like her in this house she has to leave. I'll let Adrien Agreste know about this."

"What will you tell Adrien about me?" Mari asked defensively.

"The truth." Tom simply said.

"I told you the truth." Mari replied defensively again.

"That's what you say." He said emotionless.

"Well I want to talk to him first." Mari crossed her arms.

Tom chuckled sarcastically. "Of course to lie to him like when you met him in the delegation. You'll talk with him after he is informed about everything. Now go to your room and pack your stuff so you can march yourself out from my house."

"Please Tom." Sabine pleaded.

Tom put a hand up. "Don't defend her Sabine this delinquent will leave this house."

Mari stood up. "Don't worry Mrs. Things always happen where I'm guilty because everyone thinks I'm the bad one." She crosses her arms before walking away.

"I'm going with you Mari." Sabine starts to follow her.

"Sabine!" Tom said sternly.

"No, not this time Tom." Sabine walks out of the room.


"I'm telling you that the doctor isn't here." Natalie said to the person on the other side of the phone.

"He knows excidly who I am tell him it's urgent for me to talk with him." Roland demanded her.

"I'll let him know when he comes back I have no reason to lie to you." Natalie said seriously.

"Fine write the number, I want the doctor to call me." Suddenly, the phone was taken from his hand.

"The act has ended." Nino said sternly. "You're not blind."


Sabine was in Mari's room as Mari started packing her stuff. "You don't believe me either right? Look Mrs. I never lie especially not to you."

Sabine sat on the bed next to her. "I do believe you; I don't want you to leave." Sabine hugged Mari and Mari returned the action."

"It would be amazing if you were my mom." Mari said softly.


"You don't have to tell Adrien Agreste that you are blind now." Nino said mater of factly.

"Hay you left!" Roland was surprised to see him there again.

Nino nodded. "I left but didn't close the door I heard you laughing because you thought you tricked me just like Mari and everyone else. I saw you light your cigarette grabbed your journal open it see it and dial. Who knew a blind person could do that."

"What will you do?" Roland asked in a deep voice.

"Unmask you what else you took advantage of Mari's good will and her innocence." Nino glares at him.

Roland smirked. "Mari will sleep with me."

"No as long as I'm alive you won't get it, and now I'll close the door." With that, Nino left.


Elsa was at the garden when her mother walked up to her. "Why are you so alone dear? Won't you go to the rehearsal?"

"There is no rehearsal mom and the play will be postponed for unknown time." Elsa replied.

"Do you guys have economic problems?" Her mom asked. "We can't help you."

"No it's not economic problems not everything has to do with money." Her mom looked confused at that. "One of the guys will quit his part for his studies and for a new job he got. One of the girls is in the hospital and to top it off the director is blind now."

"What a shame but don't be so depressed you were going to stop after marrying Edward anyway." With a kiss on the head her mother leaves.

Her phone rings and Elsa answered. "Michael?"

"It's me love." The voice of Edward said on the other line.


"I'll convince Tom for you not to leave." Sabine said watching Mari continuing to pack.

"He won't change I'll just leave." Mari replied.

"And where do you plan to go?" Sabine asked worriedly.

"My old neighborhood with Fu I lived well with him, and I well still live well there until your husband puts me in prison." Mari puts her purse around her shoulder.

"I won't let that happen stay calm if he tries he won't see me ever again." Sabine said with a serious tone.


"Oh well I thought it was Michael a companion from the theater." Elsa explained to Edward.

"Since you picked Adrien and I from the airport, we couldn't see each other love. Do we meet somewhere or do I pick you up?" Edward asked curiously.

"Pick me up." Elsa said softly.

"Than I'll pick you up in an hour love." Edward replied.

"Yes Edward until than." Elsa hangs up before dealing another number.

"Hello?" The voice on the other line asked.

"It's me Michael." Elsa replied.

"Are you on your way?" He asked.

Elsa sighs. "I'm sorry I can't go Edward is back in Paris and is coming to see me soon."


"Why doesn't that girl come already?" Tom was in the living room with Isabella and Lila. He was starting to get impatient for Mari to be ready to leave.

"Sabine must be concealing her." Isabella replied. "You know how sentimental she is."

Lila nodded. "I would have done the same after all I pity her dad."

"I don't Plagg." Tom called.

Plagg walked over to him. "Yes sir?"

"Go to the room of the girl and tell her to hurry up, so she can leave." Tom ordered.

Plagg hesitated. "Yes sir." He walked away. Plagg knocked on the door before walking in. "Mr. Tom says for Mari to hurry up, so she can leave the house." Plagg said sadly.

Back in the living room Tom was calling the Agreste household. "You don't know where Dr. Agreste is?...no he's not in his office, and his phone must be off since he isn't answering...alright I'll call later." He hangs up.

"Where's Mari?" Suddenly, Nino walks into the room.

Isabella stands. "Hay you can't enter like that."

"Are you here to see your girlfriend?" Tom asked curiously.

Nino nodded. "Yes I'm here to talk with her-"

"Nino what's up?" Mari stands in front of him.

"I came right away to tell you that Roland Rople isn't blind. It was all a trick an act." Nino said with a smile.

"Where did you get that?" Tom asked him.

"I went to see Roland and discovered his act. Roland isn't blind he pretended to be blind to have Mari in his hands. I knew that Mari was worried about that, so I came to tell her the truth." Nino replied.

"Can you prove it?" Tom asked.

Nino nodded. "Whenever you want sir."


"I want to be with the family Natalie has anyone called?" Adrien asked Natalie.

"Yes a man called Roland Rople, he was going to give me a number for you to contact him but the line cut off, and he didn't call back oh and Judge Dupain also called he wanted to let you know about something but couldn't contact you on your cellphone." Natalie replied.

"Yea I had my phone off, I'll call him later I'm heading to my room." He started walking up the stairs before turning back around. "Oh and let me know when lunch is."

Natalie nodded. "Yes sir."


"I unmasked him and if Roland insists that he is blind we can force him to go to the doctor." Nino suggested. "Roland is a guy without morals without a conscience, he deserves any punishment. If he actually became blind it would be because he was looking for it."

"Do you see Tom it wasn't how you thought that guy is just a jerk trying to take Mari's innocence. I imagine that what this young man said is enough for her to stay in this house." There was a long pause. "You can stay dear. Plagg take Mari's stuff back to her room."

"Yes Ma'am." Plagg said happily as he took the stuff back to the room.

"You'll stay Mari and don't worry Tom agrees because he now understands that you are not bad right Tom?" Sabine looked at Tom.

Tom sighs. "Yes Sabine she can stay."


Isabella and Lila walked inside Lila's room. "We failed!" Lila yelled furiously.

Isabella nodded. "It was bad luck that guy didn't actually get blind and what's worse that girl stays in the house."

"She had everything packed ready to leave." Lila said.

"Now we wait in fear for that father Carlos to come here and see Sabine, and the truth will be discovered." Isabella said angerly. "There will be other chances like that man in the nightmares, we have to investigate that."


"Did you like the gifts, I got you dear?" Adrian asked Maya as the family ate their lunch.

Maya nodded. "Yes did you like the gift daddy gave you grandma?"

"It's a nice perfume, but it's not the kind I use. I won't waste it Adrien, I'll give it to one of my friends during their birthday, or I could give it to the daughter of Judge Dupain. We have become great friends. I doubt you'll get upset if I don't use it right after all I know you only gave me a gift to be polite." Audrey said sarcastically.

Natalie walked in the room. "Sir you have a call in the library from a bank in the United States."

Adrien nodded excused himself and walked out from the room.


"Mari I know that there's something in your life that you have hidden from the world." Isabella sat on the bed. "And it has to do with a man right?"

"How do you know that?" Mari asked fearfully.

"I know everything Mari. Who is he?" Isabella asked. "Tell me without fear I want to help you. Tell me what happened to you."

"I thought you already knew everything." Mari said defensively.


Adrien went to the library and answered the call. "Yes?"

"I want to confirm a check from an account Mrs. Agreste has with us." The voice on the other line said.

"Are you talking about National bank that I remember Chloe didn't have an account there." Adrien said confused.

"Well she does and she left this number to communicate with her if necessary." The banker replied.

Adrien sighs. "Well I'm sorry to tell you that Chloe Agreste passed away."

"I'm sorry recently right?" The banker asked.

"No a few months ago." It was already been over two months since the accident.

"A few months ago, that's odd this check has only been out for two days." The banker said leaving Adrien shocked.
