Chapter 719: 719 The Future Is Unpredictable

719 The Future Is Unpredictable

“Arianna has successfully moved into position, we have to move now,” Mimi whispered to Elijah who was scanning the area for his brother Ezra and still didn’t catch a glimpse of him.

“I can’t find Ezra and I don’t know if that’s a good or a bad sign,” Elijah said, feeling uneasy about the development.

“Uneasy or not, we have to move now,” Mimi hastened him. She couldn’t spend a minute here any longer. Most of the guests that had kept the brothers occupied were leaving and it was only a matter of time before one of them noticed Arianna was missing.

And then, Ezra wouldn’t be the only one they have to deal with. Moreover, Arianna must be feeling lonely in the car boot where she was hidden – time passed slowly while you weren’t having fun.

“Fine, let’s go then,” Elijah took one last look at his surroundings before he was walking away with Mimi. It was evening and it wouldn’t be long before darkness would fall, cloaking the earth with its shadows.

The both of them got to the lawn where the car was parked and just to be sure that Arianna was still there – and alive – Mimi knocked twice on the boot and when she got two knocks in response, her face lit up. It wouldn’t be long now before the lovers are united.

“Come on, let’s go,” Elijah beckoned her, leaning on the door with one of the feet already on the driver’s side of the car as he was ready to go in.

“Coming!” Mimi opened the door and was about to climb into the front seat with Elijah when a voice said from behind her.

“Going somewhere, brother?”

.....

Mimi stiffened at once.

Shit, it was Ezra.

Why did he have to pop out from whenever he had been hiding at this time? They were so close to leaving. Honestly, Ezra reminded him of Swiper the fox from that animation she used to watch as a kid. He was so snoopy.

Her eyes instantly connected with Elijah who secretly signaled to her that he was in control. She had to calm down and act normal.

“Hi brother,” Elijah said so cooly that Mimi was tempted to give him a thumbs up. If it wasn’t for the fact that Ezra wasn’t a trained member of the mafioso, he wouldn’t even suspect a thing. Elijah was so good at acting, no wonder he was able to deceive Marcel and the rest of them.

“Where to?” Ezra came to lean on the body of the car, giving Mimi a wink that made her raise a brow. She thought that she scared him with her pregnancy story. Was that not enough or did he come back for more?

“I’m driving Mimi home,” Was Elijah’s excuse.

“Oh, is that so?”

Mimi couldn’t tell whether it was suspicion she sensed in Ezra’s tone but he turned to her and said, “The father of your child couldn’t care to come and take his fiancée home?”

“Well, he’s a busy man, nor can he cross your household’s threshold without one of your brothers planting a bullet in his head.” Mimi defended Victor having sensed the sarcasm in Ezra’s tone. She wrapped her arms around her chest and had her bitchy face on. Mimi could tolerate anything, but not when it involves Victor. She was highly protective of him.

“A Luciano then,” Ezra nodded his head, “Well sheath your claws, kitty, I’m not here to attack or something. I’ll just tag along to make sure this is not a trap and your fiancé or any of his people isn’t just trying to draw Elijah out, only to capture him. No offense, but the tension between both families isn’t the best right now.”

Ezra had already opened the backseat and climbed inside before any of them could stop him. Left with no other option, Mimi had to sit with him to make sure he doesn’t sense anything and as well, distract him .

Their plans just went downhill and they have no idea how to send Ezra away before he figured out what they were up to. They had to improvise in a limited time. Damn it!

There was nothing but silence as they drove on and Mimi’s only way of communicating with Elijah was through the rearview mirror. Even at that, they had to limit communication else Ezra notices their exchange.

“You are suddenly quiet,” Ezra pointed out. He added immediately, facing her, “Wait, is the pregnancy hormone at work? I have been with my brother’s wives and they have these crazy mood swings.”

Mimi looked at him, “I didn’t know that you thought of me as talkative, not to mention that you are strangely fascinated with my pregnancy?”

“Well, I like you,” Ezra confessed casually and Elijah almost ran into the car in front of him from the shock.

Unfortunately, the sudden brake tossed Arianna forward and she bumped into the side of the vehicle and yelped in pain.

“What was that?” Ezra heard it.

“What was what?” Mimi pretended to be ignorant.

Ezra’s brows furrowed as he said, “I thought I heard something, but it seems to be nothing, and little bro, perhaps if you listened less to our conversation and focused more on the road, you wouldn’t drive us to our death!” He scolded Elijah.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

“Sorry,” Elijah apologized, focusing on the road, but his gaze communicated with Mimi’s through the mirror. That was a close one. They had to do something quick! But what?! All they had was a car with Arianna hiding in the boot and limited time.

“I’m engaged, Ezra,” Mimi told him, deciding to continue the conversation and keeping him distracted while Elijah does the brain work. He’s the brilliant one, right?

“Being engaged doesn’t seal the deal until you’re officially married.” He claimed.

Mimi chuckled, “Are you saying that I should two time here, Mr. Ezra.”

“No, I’m saying that you should keep an open mind. After all, the future is quite unpredictable and anything could happen in a minute.”

“I’m pregnant.” Mimi reminded him.

“I don’t mind.”

“What?”

“I think I’m falling for you.”
