"I expected more from you, Arianna, and so does your mother,"
The moment Elijah said those words, "Her mother" it seemed as if a bomb went off in her head and she just froze in her seat.
Arianna couldn't, or rather didn't move, and began to analyze the news in her head. For starters, she never told Elijah about her mother, not even while they were still together.
The only people who knew her mother was alive were her uncle and Marcel and whoever else they decided to tell. Marcel promised to help in finding her mother, which means he must have gotten Adele involved and that also entails that Elijah must have gotten the information by chance.
Pure rage simmered inside of Arianna and she wanted to throttle Elijah at that moment. To think he would use information like this against her just to save his ass meant that he was a low, pathetic asshole.
With cold fury in her eyes, she growled, "How dare you -"
