Feeling relieved, Nathalie counted the money she had stolen. She now had 5 million, but she needed 5,500,000 million to make it to London. Nathalie decided to risk it and return to Gabriel's safe to steal some more money. When she arrived, however, Adrien was there waiting for her.

"Nathalie, I know what you're up to. I won't let you steal from my father again," Adrien said sternly.

Nathalie was caught off guard and could feel the guilt beginning to eat at her. She knew what she was doing was wrong, but she didn't know what else to do.

Just then, Adrien's phone rang. It was Marinette, his love interest agreeing her father can let Adrien over to have a sleepover with her. Adrien quickly left, leaving Nathalie alone with her thoughts.

"Uh..how did he find out?" Nathalie exclaimed. Her fingers trembled at the painting of Emilie and She pulled the sudden painting away like a door. She ended up stealing enough. She left the studio and went to her historical room.

She panted, and thought she would lose hope, but when Marinette called, Adriens feelings dedicated over to her than Nathalie. She was safe. She went back on her computer and realized her ticket has not been booked. "What?! I swear I booked it! I don't want to be the last one there!" She furiously said.

Someone was on to Nathalie. Someone.

"Well..it's worth the going. I guess."

She got up off her chair and she grabbed her money, put it in her turtleneck sweater and feasted on going to the local Airport with the car in the driveway. She opened her door with her bags and she went upstairs where Adrien is. "Adrien dear, it's time to go." Nathalie said thinking he didn't really care if she stole just a little money.

"Thank you for making me go with Marinette for a couple of Days nathalie!"

"Of course. I didn't want to leave you here alone." She said whispery. She grabbed Adriens hand and went in the car with him.

As she drives, Adrien had a smile on his face. She called Gabriel.
(no texting and driving)

"Yes nathalie?! Is there anything wrong with Adrien?" He says. "No, sir. Everything is fine. He's just gonna be with Marinette for a couple of days." Nathalie hesitated. "Nathalie. Just because I go on a trip, doesn't mean you can do whatever you want with my son!" Nathalie hangs up. She takes a deep breath. "Don't listen to your father, Adrien. You can love whoever. He's just a..a something."

She turns to the Dupain-Cheng bakery, and she drops off Adrien with a miniature hug. She goes back and closes the door. Marinette was waving at Nathalie as for a 'Thank you' and She waves back.

Nathalie quickly tried to drive to the Local Airport, when she arrived she went through the driveway.

She then walked in the Airport. "I'm ready.."
