Chloe's unconscious body fell onto the carpeted floor.

Nathaniel walked into the room and scowled at the blonde before picking up his phone and dialing a number he knew too well.

After a few rings, the person picked up.

"Hey Nat-,"

"Why is there an unconscious model in my hotel room?"

"Wow, is that how you greet your most favorite person in the world?"

"Cut the crap. Why is she here after she refused to help me?"

"She was planning to rat us out to the Agrestes and the Dupain-Chengs, so I knocked her out and sent her over to you,"

Nathaniel placed his fingers at the bridge of his nose and shook his head.

"Now her father will be looking for her!"

"So I should've just let her rat us out then? I should've just let them find out everything and take your beloved princess from you!"

Nathaniel knew that she was spitting facts. If she hadn't knocked out Chloe and sent her there, Nathaniel wouldn't have Marinette anymore and he'd probably be punished by upper heads for kidnapping a royal.

"Why didn't you just kill her and blame it on someone else? You're a pro at lying, it wouldn't be too hard,"

"Hell no! I'm not killing anyone! The most I'd do is torture them, but to kill? You think I'd do that?"

This girl was a wimp. She's a conniving snake, but she refuses to get her hands dirty.

"What do you suppose we do?"

"Keep her there until after the meeting. Then you take her with you when you're leaving and keep her there until I figure out something,"

"Okay, good plan,"

"As always,"

"I'll see you at the meeting later I suppose,"

"Wouldn't miss it for the world, princey,"

Adrien was angry.

He wasn't angry because he found the person who had Marinette. No, he was angry because he wasn't getting any information from anyone who attended the wedding.

"Adrien," King Tom called from the doorway, catching everyone's attention.

"Yes?" Adrien answered impatiently.

"A word," Tom said before stepping out of the room.

Adrien reluctantly rose from his seat and followed the King out of the room.

"What is it?" He asked impatiently.

Tom let out a growl "This idea is stupid and it isn't going anywhere! I told you guys that she wasn't kidnapped! She ran away because she couldn't handle her responsibilities as a princess!"

As those words passed Tom's lips, Adrien's blood begun to boil.

"The hell kind of reasoning is that?! She didn't run away! You're a very stupid man and it will get you no where. Why the hell would she run away? Marinette does not run away from her responsibilities, she faces them. If you were a good father you'd know that!"
