Chapter 3 The decision

Ariana handed the sandwich she made to her cousin and she went into the room with Noelle.

"Tell me everything" Noelle said excitedly

"Okay so she was caught in bed with Luca Amante" Ariana explained

"Luca amante ? The Luca Amante? Our Luca? Grace was with Luca? I can't believe this" Noelle asked surprised.

"Yes, she was on a yacht with him three days before her wedding and there were pictures and videos to prove it" Ariana replied

"It is not what you think" Grace said from the hallway.

"And yes, I heard everything" she continued when she entered the room.

"We did not mean to gossip about you, it just came out that way" Ariana quickly apologized.

"No it is fine, it is totally fine. I understand but you do not know the full story. At least if you want to tell a story, you should say it correctly" she said as she sat on the bed beside them.

"So what is the full story?" Noelle asked

"I used to date Luca Amante, that was long before I met Julius, my fiance or should I say ex fiance. Luca reached out to me, he said he wanted to see me. He invited me to his pent house. We had drinks and I drank too much. He took advantage of that." Grace explained and Ariana gasped.

"So you mean he invited you over, made you drunk and he raped you? He also took pictures and videos and he also posted them?" Noelle asked surprised and Grace nodded

"Now that is disgusting, he is an animal. He should be locked behind bars" Ariana said clearly disgusted.

"But that is the problem, he is Luca Amante. He is untouchable. No one can make him pay for what he did. That is why I am here, hiding." Grace said sadly

"That is unfair, he should pay for what he did, fuck the law" Noelle yelled.

"That is the world we live in, where men like Luca do things like that and get away with it" Ariana added

"There is a way to make him pay though, but I am have not found any one to support me" grace said

"What's that?" Noelle asked

"We seduce him and Make him fall for some one, then she breaks his heart but not only his heart, she destroys his company and everything he built." Grace replied.

"But that is heartless, that is horrible. How did you even think of such?" Ariana said

"It is the perfect plan, after what he did Grace? It is only fair that he should suffer some losses too." Noelle supported Grace's idea.

"I need some one to do it, I can not do it myself since he already knows me. I need some one different, some one new and unknown. It would be a huge shock to him. I am willing to pay the person though. I'll pay five million dollars to who ever would help me in carrying out my plan " Grace said

"Five million what? You are a crazy girl" Ariana said shaking her head

"If you have been through half of what I went through then you would be crazy, you would understand where I am coming from" Grace yelled.

"But still, this plan is disgusting. It is inhumane. You should find another way to make him pay." Ariana tried to discourage her cousin

"There is no other way, were you not listening to what I was saying? It is Luca Amante, the Luca" Grace said

"I will do it, I will help you" Noelle said after thinking for a long time.

"No you will not" Ariana yelled.

"I will do it, that bastard gotta pay for what he did"

"And who are you to decide that? What are you now? A human rights activist? You must have lost your god damned mind " Ariana yelled.

"She will pay me, you are you to pay me right?" Noelle asked

"Yes, three million before and two after the job is done" Grace confirmed

"Can you hear that! Five freaking million and I still get to make him pay for what he did, it is literally the best deal on earth. It is just like taking candy from a baby"

"Except he is not a baby, he is a twenty seven year old billionaire that can ruin our lives with only one call. So think about this, what am I saying? Do not think about this, forget the money. We will find another way to get out of poverty. This is not the way." Ariana said, hoping to change Noelle's mind

"I have made my decision, Ariana. Do not try to stop me or change my mind because it is not going to work. Some one has to teach that man a lesson" Noelle replied.

"And that some one is not you, it will never be you. Few hours ago you were obsessed with him and all now you want to ruin his life? Listen to yourself. Can you even hear what you are saying?" Ariana said

"Listen Ariana, if you won't do it, do not try to discourage her from helping me. I came here looking for help from my cousin, My blood but I guess she does not love me enough to help me. Now a stranger wants to help me and you are discouraging her. What exactly is your problem?" Grace yelled

"You are my problem!" Ariana shouted on top of her voice.

"You are my fucking problem, you and your whole family. Wanna talk about blood and relation? Well I have the perfect story. Every single time I ask you guys for help, you ignore me and I've lived my life in poverty because you guys are too selfish to help. Now tell me why should I help you now?" Ariana continued

"I am not asking you for help, your friend here is generous enough to help so just stay out of it" Grace argued

"I can not and will never stay out of it. Noelle is my best friend and also my responsibility I will never let you put her in danger like that." Ariana stood her ground

"Stay out of it, I have made up my mind. Do not ruin this for me" Noelle said firmly
