Adrien went to the church. "I'll lose Mari forever if she marries Luka." He thinks about Mari before tearing up.


Mari went to the living room holding Adrienne to see Sabine waiting for her. "How are you doing dear?"

"Good what are you doing out from the house so soon?" Mari asked.

"I'm doing better and I'm feeling fine." Sabine replied. "Mari even though I abandoned you as a baby because of weakness you're the most important thing in my life. I want to ask you now that you forgiven me to come with Adrienne to live with me."


"I told you mom is willing for you to go in order to bring her here." Lila was telling Tom. "When Mari makes it a condition to come here Sabine will tell you to leave like she did with me. Mari will use that to satisfy her needs of revenge. Mari will make mom beg so she can blackmail her. She must be saying either us or her."


"It isn't logical that we are separated now that we found each other. Now that I was able for you to forgive me and for you to finally accept me as you mother." Sabine continued. "Let me give you and Adrienne protection. I know that you don't need anything because you're strong and know how to fight in the world but I offer you love of a mother where can you be better at than by your mother's side. Fu can obviously come with you I'm very grateful with him for taking care of you "


"That's the same formula you told me to use and look what happened." Tom stated.

"Because I really didn't think mom would choose her over you with how much she pretends to love you." Lila replied. "She loves you only if you're not an obstacle between her and Mari if she has to pick she'll pick her. She already did she said so to Adrien. She'll pick her over you if she has too."


"Thank you mom but I can't accept your offer it's not because of you but I can't forget things that I suffered in that house." Mari replied. "It hurts my heart to think I'll go there with Adrienne and that she gets hurt too."

"Don't even think about that." Sabine stated. "Lila made your life impossible and she won't be there. She can't be there and she knows that. I told her that she had to leave. Lila isn't my daughter she pretended to be you the whole time making fun of my feelings as a mother along with her Aunt Isabella. She deserves to leave for everything she did to you. She took everything that belonged to you and now she needs to give it back."

"I don't care about the money or material gain from a high status family." Mari replied. "Plus it's not just because of Lila there's someone else that you're forgetting."

"Yes I know Tom...for you to come live with me do you also make it as a condition that Tom leaves?" Sabine asked.


"Mari is going to ask her for you to leave dad. You can't let that happen. You are the owner of everything Sabine got married to you with nothing. Her rights are limited who can decide that Mari doesn't put a foot on this house is you. I'll be by your side you and me again them." Lila added.

"Don't even think that I'll become my wife's enemy. If Sabine prefers Mari I'll give everything to them." Tom stated.

"Dad you can't do that!" Lila said in disbelief.

"I'll leave before Sabine asks me too." Tom stated.


"I won't give you any conditions I'm just telling you that I can't be by his side. He has always treated me badly before and after knowing that I'm his daughter. Plus I doubt that you'll capable of telling him to leave for me. You love him and I can't do that to you or him and that's fine I know he's a great husband." Mari stated.

"You're more important being my daughter...with all the pain in my heart I would ask him to leave...if he leaves will you come live with me?" Sabine asked sadly.


Natalie went in Kagami's room to pick up her breakfast. "Has Ruby called from her trip?" Kagami asked.

"Yes she said that she's very happy to start her honeymoon with her husband." Natalie replied. "Also Mr. Adrien wanted me to tell you when you're able too he wants to talk to you."

"Yes tell him that he can come whenever he wants." Kagami stated. "Natalie please lock the door when you leave." Natalie nodded before walking away with the tray.

Audrey saw Natalie leave the room with the tray and locking the room. "He brought her back." Audrey said irritated.


"No mom that would be a big sacrifice for you. I don't want you to keep suffering because of me. I won't go live with you under that condition plus it won't be possible remember I'm getting married. Adrienne needs a father and who better than Luka Couffaine. When I marry him I'll have to live with him." Mari stated. "But just because I'm getting married doesn't mean that we won't see each other. You'll be with Adrienne as many times as you want. We won't be apart ever again."

Sabine hugged her. "Will you never forgive your father Mari?"

"Even if I did he will never accept me as his daughter." Mari replied. "He never should have been against me in the first place. I never did anything to him I actually wanted to gain his affection. Did you see how he treated me last time? I don't know what the future might bring but right now I can't forgive him."


"Edward wants to come to talk to you and Mrs. Ciel." Roxie told Christopher.

He smiled. "I'm assuming to ask for your hand."

"Yes you guys are like the parents that I never had." Roxie replied.

"Well we feel like you're a second daughter to us Roxie and it will be our pleasure to give him your hand." Christopher stated. "We know the kind of man that he is and we know that he'll make you very happy."

"I love him so much he's the only man I actually loved...Eddie's father was just a mistake I did in my youth. Edward loves Eddie and he'll raise him as his own." Roxie replied with a smile.

"Good morning." Roland said walking in with a smirk. "I came to talk to you Roxie."

"Do you want to receive him?" Christopher asked Roxie and she nodded. "Alright I'll be in the other room if you need me and next time Mr. Rople knock before you enter." With that he walked away.

"What do you want?" Roxie asked.

"What game do you have with Dr. Fuller?" Roland asked back. "What's between the two of you?"

"It's not a game Roland. What exists between Edward and me Is sincere love." Roxie replied. "We love each other so much that we're getting married."

"You won't get married with that man. Forget about marriage and that's it." Roland said sternly.

"I'm nothing yours and I'm confused where all of this is coming from." Roxie stated. "You can't give me orders."

"Roxie break up with the doctor or you'll regret it." Roland threatened.

"Don't get involved in my life Roland. You were about to destroy it so leave me in peace." Roxie stated. "Someone is willing to give me the love you couldn't and is willing to marry me. He's willing to give me his life his protection and his name. Especially be a father for Eddie."

"That kid is mine." Roland replied.

"You despised him. Now it's too late for you to regret it he doesn't need you anymore." Roxie stated. "He has a father now I'll marry Edward no matter what."

"If you do I'll take the kid away from you." Roland replied.

"You can't do that or capable of doing that. Why do you have to be so selfish Roland?" Roxie asked. "You harm because of entertainment. I have always been alone Roland I never had anything so let me be happy."

"If you love him so much than marry him but you'll lose your son in the process." Roland stated.

"I can't be happy without my son." Roxie replied. "But I can't break up with Edward either."

"Well you have to pick one." Roland replied before walking away.


At the theater people were buying tickets for the premiere of the new play as Lila and Roland were talking. "So now Mari doesn't want to be an actress?"

"No but I'll find a way to convince her to stay. For now I convinced her to do one more play I already picked it out. You lived in New York you might have heard of it. It's called a silent terror." Roland replied.

"Yes I seen it in Broadway. The female lead is mute right?" Lila asked.

"Yes Mari will be great on that role." Roland replied. "The last scene where she gets shot is incredible."

"That's right she gets shot. What a shame that it can't be real." Lila mumbled.


"What do I do if her dad comes to see her?" Fu asked Mari before she left.

"Just let him see her. Adrien is her father after all." Mari replied. "He regonizeed her and everything I feared happened so I can't do anything about it. Adrienne will have a half father that will see her once in a while. I would prefer if she only had me or that by getting married Luka would have been her father. Adrien is a good father though and he won't take her away from me so we should let him see her. Though it might be hard for him after I marry Luka...by the way after this play I'm doing one more before quitting being an actress."


"Tell me how are gun shots seem so real without hurting anyone?" Lila asked Roland.

"A real gun is used but with fake bullets like in toy guns." Roland replied. "Like that the actor feels more in the role."

"I see well I'll see you later." Lila walked away forming a plan.

At that moment Mari walked in and went to her dressing room but Roland stopped her. "About time you came. Where's your assistant?"

"Oh I told her to not come she's helping Alya plan her wedding." Mari replied.

"It's the premiere you're going to need her." Roland said sternly.

"Ana said that she'll help me." Mari replied.

"Yes I'll help her sir and I'll do my duties." Ana stated.

Roland nodded before walking away. "Hay Roland did Luka come over here?" He shook his head no. "Oh I thought he did since he didn't come to the house."


Alix and Jake went to the church to talk to Father Carlos. "We want to get married Father Carlos." Jake stated.

"You too? Alya and Nino were just here planning their wedding." Father Carlos replied with a smile. "I see that I'll be busy these days. You saw how pretty Ruby's and Mathew's wedding was."

"Yes it was very pretty but we want a simpler wedding." Alix stated.

"I don't have family in Paris and Alix only has her close family. Plus our close friends that's it." Jake added.

"Okay I will get my agenda so you can pick a date." Father Carlos replied.


Ana quickly went to Mari's dressing room and started doing her make up. "The theater is full. This play will be a bigger success than the last one."

"On nights of premieres I feel more nervous than ever." Mari stated.

"You'll do great like the other times." Ana replied.

"To think that I'll be mute for the last play I'm doing." Mari stated. "That will be easy. Though in the end they try to kill me."

"Yes I know the play but I honestly don't like any fiction with guns or weapons." Ana replied. "What if by playing around with guns something bad happens."

"Roland says that there's no danger since the bullets are fake. You'll see that nothing bad happens to me." Mari stated.


Natalie walked in Kagami's room. "You have a phone call from your friend that called before." Kagami takes the phone nervously.

Natalie left and Kagami answered. "Hello?"

"I thought you wouldn't answer. Tonight is the night I'll take over your body. Tonight is the night we'll kill Adrien." Isabella said in her fake Japanese accent.

Kagami hangs up. The phone rang again but she didn't answer.


Once the play finished everyone stood up and clapped as the curtains closed. Roland and Ana congratulated her and Kim before the curtains opened again and she took a bow with Kim. She suddenly saw Luka in the front of her right clapping for her and she smiled than she saw Adrien on the front row of her left clapping for her too and she kept her smile.


Sabine walked over to Tom who was reading in the living room. "Tom this silence this tense situation between us pains me. If you wanted to this situation wouldn't exist."

"If I wanted to? Why does everything depend on me? When there's another person that caused it." Tom stated.

"That other person like you call her Is your daughter and it's not her fault." Sabine replied.

"So it's my fault that she is arrogant insolent and disrespectful? That she disrespected me the time I went to get closer to her?" Tom asked.

"That's not your fault but have you wondered why she's like that towards you? Are you sure that you went with enough love?" Sabine asked back.

"Don't ask me to give more than what I can give." Tom replied. "You know me. You know that it's not in my nature to embraces myself more than once so tell me Sabine when do you want me to leave the house?"


Mari walked in her house. "How was Adrienne Fu?"

"Good she played all night I gave her dinner and she went to sleep." Fu replied.

"Thank you Fu I don't know what I would do without you." Mari replied with a smile.


"I told you that I was capable of doing so if you bring her. I let you pick between one of us you picked her so stay with her." Tom added.

"Tom I don't want to pick between the people I love the most." Sabine replied. "Do all the years we lived with happiness not worth anything?"

"Well she must be worth more if you're picking her over what we have." Tom stated. "Now you won't be alone she'll come when I leave. I won't be an obstacle between you and you daughter I'll leave tomorrow forever."


"I wasn't expecting you here so early." Isabella told Lila when she walked in her house the next morning.

"I couldn't sleep thinking about what I told you yesterday." Lila replied. "I want you to give me your opinion. What do you think about my plan of getting rid of the street rat once and for all? She'll put us in the streets if we don't move quickly. Do you agree with me?"

"I'm trying to think of another solution for the problem of the street rat." Isabella stated.

"What other solution? There's no better option than death." Lila replied.

"I find it risky." Isabella stated.

"I know but we need to find a way so it isn't risky. We can't be involved to not be seen as suspicious. Like doing it by fate so someone else is to blame. We will be far away from here when the incident happens. That's the only way to not lose anything." Lila replied.

"You're right Lila we need to get rid of Mari." Isabella stated.


Sabine walked in Mari's house and Mari could tell something was wrong. "What's wrong mom?"

"Tom is leaving the house today he's packing his stuff." Sabine replied sadly.


"I honestly don't want to go to jail but I also don't want to lose everything that we have." Isabella stated. "How will you do it?"

"I can enter the theater easily since I'm friends with Roland I have gone many times it shouldn't surprise him that I'm there. There's a room called the storage room where all the stuff used in the play are kept. I'll find a way to go there without being seen." Lila replied.


"Is he really capable of leaving you like that?" Mari asked surprised.

"He made me pick dear it was cruel of him because that isn't done to a mother." Sabine replied. "I love him but I have been separated from you for most of your life he should understand that. Now Tom is going to leave me alone."

Mari hugged her. "Don't worry mom take me to the house I have an idea."


"I'm glad you're back from school Maya. Since you're be on break would you like to come with me to Spain for a while?" Audrey asked Maya.

"Of course!" Maya said excitedly.


Sabine walked in the house with Mari and she saw a big suitcase there with Plagg by it. "What's this Plagg?"

"As you know Mrs. Sabine...Mr. Tom is waiting for you in the living room." Plagg replied.

Sabine sighs. "Wait here dear." She walks to the living room.

"I didn't want to leave without saying goodbye." Tom stated. "I'll be in a hotel. Of course I'll still take care of everything and do the responsibility that I took by marrying you. We might be separated but I don't think a divorce is necessary-" At that moment Mari walked in. "What's the meaning of this?"

"Don't ask her or blame her I was the one that wanted to come." Mari replied. "Mom went to see me and she told me that you were leaving so we wouldn't have to live under the same roof."

"We lived together once and the experience wasn't great." Tom stated.

"Yes I feel the same way." Mari replied.

"At least we agree on one thing and for that I don't think it's necessary for it to repeat again." Tom stated. "Especially when I used to have the authority and ask for respect but now things changed and I won't tolerate it."

"You were always embarrassed of me and I know that you will feel uncomfortable if I live here again." Mari replied. "Now it's clear that you're my parents and I have a mother that is willing to protect me from any harm." Tom was about to walk away but Mari stopped him. "No don't leave. I only stepped in this house to stop you from leaving. I don't want the two of you to get separated after years of being together because of me. You don't care about me but you care about her. Mom will suffer if you leave her alone. She's your life and she doesn't want to lose you. Her love of a mother made her think I'll live with her now that we found each other. You don't have to leave because I don't plan to live in this house. Please stay with my mom judge Dupain I beg you." Mari started to walk away but not before blowing a kiss to her mother.


"Kagami I talked to Luka and explained everything to him." Adrien told Kagami. "It's hard for him to understand it since he only sees you as Ryuuko the cruel one but the truth is that you aren't her or Kagami well at least completely."

"That's simple to say but you know that it isn't." Kagami replied. "Are you going to be here to help me?"

"I'll be here to help you but you need to do most of the work yourself. Expect my help and compassion but not my love...it belongs somewhere else." Adrien goes to the door that lead to the garden and unlocked it.

"What are you doing Adrien?" Kagami asked in a panic.

"The doors will be unlocked from now on you shouldn't be afraid anymore. You need to face your fears to completely be cued. You aren't pure to the core or evil to the core you're a normal woman that has a right to live and love. Trust in yourself like how I trust in you." Adrien replied before leaving her room.

"Adrien is right now I understand it. I'm not Ryuuko or this Kagami. How was I before?...I almost forgotten it I was happy skilled in my favorite hobbies and especially confident...can I be that Kagami again?" Kagami said to herself looking at her reflection.

Natalie walked in the room. "Miss. Kagami you have a visitor Dr. Luka Couffaine." Kagami nodded and walked to the living room to see Luka waiting for her.

"Adrien explained everything to me but it's still hard to understand." Luka stated.

"Why did you come to see me?" Kagami asked.


"I'm here to thank you Dr. Agreste. I'm grateful with you to let me be your assistant and intern while I was studying." Jake told Adrien as they were in Adrien's office.

"You have nothing to thank me for it was my pleasure." Adrien replied. "And now you're a ophthalmologist. What do you plan to do now?"

"Well actually I'm getting married with Alix." Jake stated. "I'm here to also invite you to the wedding...and I was hoping that you could be my best man?"

"Of course I'll be the best man." Adrien replied.


"Of course I'll be the maid of honor." Mari told Alix while hugging her.

"I'm glad you accepted you're my closest friend besides Ruby." Alix stated. "The wedding is this Thursday its only going to be a small wedding. Here's the invitation I already put your name on it because I knew that you would accept."

Mari read it. "...Adrien is the best man..."


"What story will you tell me today?" Maya asked Emilie.

"Actually I thought it would be fun to do something else." Emilie replied. "We're going to make a pie." A kitchen appears around them and Emilie taught Maya how to make a pie.


"I came to convince myself that Ryuuko doesn't really exist. Are you sure that there isn't a part of Ryuuko in you?" Luka asked Kagami.

"There is but only the part of being confident and honest of my feelings." Kagami replied.


"Mom look I found a wedding dress." Alya told Marlena showing her the dress on a magazine.

"That's great and very pretty. How are the other preparations going?" Marlena asked.

"So far great." Alya replied.


"Mama mama mama." Adrienne kept saying as Mari played with her the next day.

The doorbell rang and Mari went to open it and Luka walked in. "Luka you came early."

"I want to talk to you." Luka replied. "She went to my hotel room the night of Ruby's wedding. Adrien also came. We had a huge argument. Adrien thought that I was taking advantage of her in revenge because you- well he punched me and Ryuuko tried to stop him. Adrien shook her yelling at her and she turned to Kagami. Later Adrien explained everything to me and I understood that she's a sick woman not a cruel one."

"Well now that you know the truth did your feelings change?" Mari asked.


"Dad Plagg told me everything I can't believe Mari is so smart that she can manipulate you too." Lila stated.

"She didn't manipulate me and I don't want to hear any bad thing said about her again." Tom replied sternly.

'That means that she won him over that's why he's acting that way but don't worry Tom soon you won't hear anything good or bad said about her.'


"No Mari my feelings haven't changed." Luka replied. "So what's new?"

"Well Alix and Jake are getting married tomorrow." Mari stated. "I'm the maid of honor and...Adrien is the best man."

"You two in that church again looking at each other? No absolutely not I prohibit you from going to that wedding." Luka said sternly.
