Arianna first tried to cheer up her man before dropping the bomb on him. She had no idea how he would react when she did, but she didn't expect Maxim's patience to wane as quickly as she did.
"Are you going to tell me or not?" he asked, his brow furrowed, which was a bad sign.
"You have to promise me that you will be calm first, after all, I handled the situation perfectly," Arianna tried to persuade Maxim, but this only made Maxim suspect that something bad had occurred.
"That depends; now begin!" This time, he didn't give her a chance to make any more excuses.
Arianna was weak in front of Maxim, and his commanding tone made her feel very obedient. She reasoned that since she had already made a promise, she should just confess.
If Maxim becomes enraged, it will not be herself who suffers in the end.
