She came running towards me with the flower vase on nearest table in her hand.
my reflex worked. I quickly dodged it as soon as I saw it came flying towards me from her.
The vase hit the wall with a loud sound and broke into many pieces. The fresh flowers inside it with water started flowing on the white marble floor.
Almost all maids, mom and Melissa who was wearing a face pack came running towards the source of the sound.
They were stunned by the scene as I was.
Anne was still huffing with rage.
I quickly regained my senses and understood what happened.
"Aunt, what happened? What was this sound all about?" Melissa was the first one to break the silence.
"Why is that vase broken?" My mother was second.
Without any repentance Anne told gritting her teeth " This lowly bitch was rolling eyes on me. How dare she to do that to me, Anne Ford. Huh?"
Yes she always behaves like a crazy bull. In this house she was the one who tormented me most.
On the other hand my mother was not at all feeling sad as her daughter almost got murdered and also getting cursed from some outsider.
Ohhh ..probably because now she thinks of me as outsider and Fords as her family. I bet she would have started crying if it was Melissa in my place.
" Really Aliana? rolled your eyes at her? Why did you do that?" I was not at all surprised that my mother yelled at me for that old hag.
On the other hand I was surprised by Melissa's quietness.
"Yes, I rolled my eyes at her so what?" I told loudly.
I went towards Anne.
"Mrs. Smith, you are still same as you were five years. All rude and arrogant huh."
I knew she will burn with rage with just one word " Mrs. Smith" as everyone is forbidden to call her that. But she didn't know more attacks were coming towards her.
I continued,
" You are so proud and confident of yourself that you think you can commit murders inside Ford's mansion and get away with the laws. Alas, all this proud and confidence of yours still can't stop your husband from cheating on you."
BOOM I drop the last bomb.
Without looking back I went upstairs to my room. From the curse and sounds of throwing and breaking I can understand that the result of my' light speech' downstairs left a great impact.
Though maybe I shouldn't have brought her husband's cheating issue just now but she needed this lesson.
Hope now she will learn her lesson and stop messing with me.
And the main thing in all this is I don't give a fuck. I really don't want to give any fuck to anyone of this house and just want to have some peaceful days here till the wedding gets over.
But I was having the feelings that this trip and wedding ceremony will not go peacefully, at least for me
Because I still haven't had any conversation with Aiden till now. It's not that I am very interested, it's just that the thought of living with him under the same roof is not giving me any peace. Don't know if I was sad, scared or excited. I also got a side mission which I cannot forget.
I laid down on the bed which is surprisingly in good condition till now.
Staying like this makes me remember old days. How I ended up in this hell from our sweet Morris mansion.
PAST
"Dad what happened? Are you feeling unwell? " I asked my dad who was coughing badly.
"No I got little cold, I will be ok within tomorrow morning Sweety" My dad said almost drunk.
"Dad how many times I told you to drop your drinking habits. Even mom will get angry if she saw you like this. "
I was worried about dad and moreover mom didn't come back yet.
"I wonder why mom haven't came back yet. You told me she is going to a business trip for one week but it already been three weeks. I know business trips sometimes get extended but it should be over by now.
I wonder if she is alright."
I exclaimed sadly looking outside through the small window.
From the window all I can see was a cloudy night. Neither did the moon not any stars coul be seen.
After drinking the last glass of alcohol dad stood up and said to me in red watery eyes.
