Rachel successfully managed to secure an audience with Mariam, which brought her a sense of relief.
She had anticipated it would be much more challenging, especially with the heightened security.
Who could blame her, considering what had transpired in the past couple of months? It made her feel safer, but it also raised concerns about the system in place.
If one of her security personnel could betray her and be part of a secret revolt, then there was definitely a flaw in the system.
"Good evening, Rachel. What brings you here?" Mariam asked, as stunning as ever in a dress Rachel had never seen her wear before. Each time Rachel saw her, Mariam seemed even more beautiful than before. Mariam crossed her legs and waited for Rachel to explain her purpose.
