Daughter-in-law strikes harder A long long end
New OrleansGrand Isle"Getting so occupied with Adriana has made me so busy. I will meet you at the event," Ariana apologized to her sister on the phone, as she turned to face her tiny little child who had spilled the jug of milk again for the third time. "Come back here, naughty," she called and tried to catch the little child who ran off so fast, the moment she realized that her mother was about to get to her. "She is so fast. The last time she came over, the rack that holds numerous stacked books in the dining room came tumbling. I didn't see her afterward, and feared so greatly that she was probably under the huge rack," Aria sighed so hard over the phone. "I started crying while calling her name, because she is just so tiny. Guess what? I found her when I heard a loud sound in the kitchen. She had climbed the kitchen stool and gotten her little fingers on my bowl. It was so hectic." "Oh, dear. I am sorry she made you go through all that," Ariana groaned with a chuckle, as she

It wasn't the usual boring and eerie vibe, the atmosphere at the Millers gave that night. It was an ambience that felt coldly different from normal, or maybe waiting to stir trouble as it may seem to be like. One could certainly hear even the slightest drop of a pin at the unlikely silence, the entire mansion seemed to be at from a distance. Dalton strutted tyrannically step by step like a phantom down the hallway with an imposing presence, which intensified by the step he took while wearing the regular cold expression on his face. His head butler and assistant, Alex, was holding a luxurious leather briefcase in his right hand, with his eyes drooped to the floor as he paced slowly behind him. The sound of their shoes pressing against the surface of the floor was so silent, but the most cautious and observant of the smallest things that went on in the mansion, and were always everywhere could sense their presence instantly. Quickly, the maids came in a chaotic and disorganized manne

The Millers mansion was creepily quiet the next morning, with every employed servant around every corner of the huge mansion, carrying out their assigned duties for the day. At the plush dining room where the maids were setting the table, was an eccentric chandelier that hung from the round tray ceiling, illuminating the classic room where an oval, glass table sat on marble floor tiling. The table was standardly set with white, delicate porcelain china of different sizes, and there were also a variety of dishes served on the table. By the side of the three course meals that had been served, were serena shine gold cutleries that had been slightly head crossed on clean white papers. There were numerous kinds of fleshy and dry fruits that were served in glass jars, and fragrant candles that had also been arranged beautifully on the table. The table setting was so exquisite with every dish that looked enticing, like they were preparing a party feast with every top-notch chef, walking i

Alex barged into the dinning room through the large door befuddled and out of breath, as he scampered carefully to where Dalton sat, who was watching the entire scene carefully. He brought his face down and whispered something close to Dalton's ears, whose eyes started to blaze with darkness instantly with his eyebrows raised in contempt.'What was it that he was hearing?'"Have you suddenly gone bonkers?!" Ellen, the second sister who was already worked up, questioned, as she stood up and thought to yank Aria's ears like she had always done. She speculated that Aria must have lost her mind in a split second. 'Maybe that will be an eye opener for her,' she thought angrily. Aria, who knew what could happen next if she still remained at that point, stood up immediately and adjusted the wrinkles that crumpled around her black dress. Things could get more ugly if she remained sitting, so she stood to her feet and moved away from the chair, as she tucked it gently back under the dining t

"What do you mean by that?" Aria scowled disappointingly, about Dalton's sudden hardheadedness and refusal to divorce her. It was so unreasonable for him to just outrightly refuse to get divorce, when that was what he had always wished for his entire life. Ever since she had became a part of their family, and married into his home as a wife. She could not contain the anger she was feeling anymore, to the point that she wanted to spit at his face and curse at him. 'Wasn't that what he had always wanted? Did he have to frustrate her efforts again? Well that was really who he was. A disgusting bastard who had never looked at his wife with warmth, or even ever treated her nicely just for once' Aria who was already irritated by his silly games and playing around, angrily pushed him away from her and walked to the front of her dresser. Her eyes trailed to the mirror and lowered its gaze to her arm where the bruises from earlier were imprinted, as she stared at it through the dresser mirro

The reporters looked somewhat tired and out of breath as they were sweating profusely, even with the huge air conditioners that were properly functioning in the large room that they were gathered at. The walk from the Millers gate was a extremely long and tiring one, coupled with the heavy cameras and instruments they had brought with them. No one would ever do the favour of bringing them in, from the journey of thousand miles from the gate to the main building. Aria had made a grandeur entry into the room confidently, and smiled modestly at the reporters who were a bit surprised as they didn't know who she was. As far as everyone knew every single member of the Miller family, they were so sure they had never seen the lady who had entered into the room. Nevertheless, they were all astonished by her beauty, as they came closer to the door to take pictures. That was when realization hit them.There had only been rumours about Dalton's wedding and new wife, but not many people had seen h

Aria had to curb the impulsive urge to jump on Dalton at that moment, and tear his face into pieces because of what he had done to wreck her plans. He had succeeded in turning the tables against her and frustrating her plans, which she was never planning to give up on no matter what. Still, she couldn't even understand why he would do that, when he really loathed the fact that they were both married together.'Was he trying to frustrate her even till the last moments? Or was there anything else to the evil marriage contract that no one was telling her about?' Dalton, who was satisfied by the confused look everyone in the room had on their faces, darted his eyes back to where Aria was standing to see the expression on her face. He would have so much expected to see a frustrated and pained appearance of her, but was rather disappointed to see her looking so prideful like everything was going her way. He began to wonder in his mind what exactly was going on in her head, that made her p

Aria's feelings could not even decipher at the moment on whether she should be elated or not, when she was informed that Dalton had ordered for her to move from her room to another. She was feeling a bit fuddled and tipsy from the wine she had taken earlier, as she gulped quickly a glass of water and listened to Alex give orders to the maids.'Why would he decide to switch her room now? Was that another way to punish and frustrate her? Or had they planned to finally throw her out of the house for the fact that she had wrecked problems?' As her entirety seemed to be wanting to stir trouble and put everyone in the mansion at unrest, she stormed out of her room as the maids walked inside and proceeded towards the stairs. The furry white slippers which were under her feet that were supposed to be noiseless, made a loud sound on the glimmering floor with efforts that indicated much anger in her. She climbed up the winged-shaped stairs that parted like an intersection at the top end, in
