Deal With A Bossy Marshal

Chapter 13

Richard chuckled, "Scholars like you are very good at artful work indeed, But it doesn't work on me. It is either the same or choice as it was just now, other options are off the table" 

Arci saw that situation has come to a dead end, Even though she doesn't love Bremo as lover, he is still her childhood friend which she counts as her brother and besides her mother's funeral urn is still with the shameless man.

She took out a gun and came out of her hiding place, she pointed a gun at his head.

Richard glanced at her and was surprised.

"Arci" Lincoln stepped forward nervously.

This girl is too bold.

"What do you want?" He glanced at her Richard.

"Let Marshal Bremo go or I will shoot you" Arci told Richard.

"Miss Arci, we've met again," Richard smiled.

"Enemies often cross each other's path" Arci replied coldly.

"We were together at the Far East Hotel as a couple this afternoon and yet you are holding me at gunpoint. This really makes me sad, ``he said pitifully.

"Don't talk nonsense, you obviously kidnapped me," Arci said.

"Are you good with guns? Don't let it go off to hurt yourself" Richard said flirtatiously.

"Knock it off! Where is my mother's funeral urn?" She asked.

"How about this? Ask him to put his gun down, and I'll take you to get your mother's funeral urn" Richard smiled at her seductively.

"Arci doesn't believe him," Bremo said.

"Choose between your new love and old love, me or him?" Richard said.

Arci's face turned grim.

Lincoln stepped forward.

He walked closer to them.

"Marshal Richard, I don't know what old score Arci has with you but her mother died of illness in Japan years ago, she is fulfilling her mother's wish to be buried in her native soil, so please don't do anything that's disrespectful to the deceased" Lincoln explained to him.

"Mr Lincoln, I don't have the slightest disrespect for your wife and I'm keeping her ashes safe. As soon as the Military Governor Albert publishes the open telegram, I'll present the ashes with both of my hands" Richard said.

Lincoln glanced at Military Governor Albert.

"It's definitely not going to happen unless you do what Bremo said and submit to my command," Military Governor Albert said.

"Publishing an open telegram to the nation is a serious matter. It's not that I don't give you time to think, But Marshal Bremo you will have to go with me, I'll send you back as soon as the open telegram is published" Richard said.

"Wait a minute," Arci said.

She dropped the gun and dropped the Bremo gun also.

"Let him go. I'll go with you" She told him.

"Arci" Bremo said

"Arci, what are you doing?" Lincoln exclaimed.

"Dad, I must go and get my mother's funeral urn," Arci replied.

 She glanced at Richard.

"Mr Richard, I'll be your hostage. Don't give my family guest a hard time"

Dawn smiled when she saw this.

"Mom, isn't this girl crazy?" Runa said.

Dawn signaled for her to shut up.

"What a pair desperadoes, show me how you are a better fit than him" Richard said.

"I'm the eldest young miss of the Lincoln family and the daughter in law of Latino family. By taking me away you'll kill two birds with a stone and choke the two families by the throat. Who'd be a better fit than him?" Arci told him.

"The Latino family daughter in law?" Richard asked thoughtfully.

"The Latino family came here to propose marriage, As everybody present has seen just now, it is me who did the opening dance with Mr Bremo" 

"Okay, It seems nobody is a better fit than you, Drey took her away," Richard said.

Drey stepped forward to grab her but Bremo held her in his arm protectively, he glared at Richard.

"Take me away and let Miss Arci go," Bremo said.

"Take her away" Richard glanced at Drey.

"You…." Bremo pointed at him.

Drey collects the gun from her.

"Miss Arci, Please" He dragged her away.

"Military Governor Albert and Military Governor P**e Miss Arci's life is up to you, I hope to see the open telegram tomorrow morning" Richard said.

He kept his gun in his pocket and smiled at Bremo.

He walked out, Bremo could only clenched his fist as he watched him leave.

When love saw the situation she exhaled in relief.

"Love, let's go" Richard said as he walked out of the hall without turning back.

"Yes" Love said as she fixed her eyes on the ground and followed him.

"You…. You lied to us" Micheal said.

When he saw her responding to Richard.

Love froze when she heard this.

She turned and ignored him, she stared at Stanley "Marshal Stanley, both my name and phone number are real, call me when you have time Bye" She said and ran out.

"Look at what you have done" Michael glared at Stanley angrily.

Love entered into the car parked outside, Richard was sitting by her side at the back, she didn't dare to speak throughout the journey. She watched as the driver drove to a place she was familiar with. The way to her school.

They got to her in 30 mins.

When the car parked in front of her school, A man wearing black opened the door for Richard, Richard stepped outside, love followed him.

"You couldn't even keep an eye on a chit girl, aren't you ashamed" Richard glared at the man coldly.

He is Greg Bush, Richard's assistant, he is also his childhood friend. He bore the same surname as Richard because his parents died in a battle and Richard's father took him in, he treated Greg as his son also so he changed his surname to Bush.

"Marshal Richard, it is my fault" Greg said.

He was already sworn to be Richard's subordinate for the rest of his life and Richard really treated him well, he also respected and admired Richard.

Richard stared at Love, "isn't it your fault as well? Do you know you've almost messed up my plans today? " 

…..

"Richard, don't be angry, Look when you gave me a hint earlier, I got it immediately. We worked together seamlessly" Love said, looking at him pitifully.

"Greg, she isn't allowed to go out of school in the next few days" Richard told him.

"Yes," He replied.
