Diverging From a Miserable Life

CHAPTER 5

"What are you just standing there for? Hurry it up."

Aria snapped out of her daze when the woman in red scolded her. With shaking hands, she wrote his name hurriedly, put the card on the flowers and gave the finished product on the woman.

Without asking the amount, the woman in red gave her a paper bill.

"Wait a minute."

"No need, keep the change."

The woman told Aria and left. Aria sat down trying to calm herself. This is nothing to be nervous of. She's been out of their radar for three years, what's more, she clearly remembered that... that guy... Aren Fausse didn't even bother her during her past life. It was her who kept pushing herself to the spotlight. She wanted revenge for her family, after all.

No, that maybe Aren's way of tormenting her, there was no need for him to make a move himself. She was full of scandal, the media never left her alone and that made her life even more unbearable. However, now that she was out of reach, with no scandal surrounding her, Aren may come for her to ruin her life. She's now living peacefully and in Aren's eyes, that surely will be unforgivable.

Aria doesn't know why Aren destroyed everything her parents worked hard for. She knows in her heart that the cases filed against her father were nothing but bogus and her mother was kind to everyone, never even lifting a finger to hurt an employee who disrespected her. To think that they would accuse her mother of murder, she honestly found it ridiculous.

Oh, her poor parents, she did not even attend their funeral. She wanted to but couldn't take the risk. Celine took care of everything for her. Tears started to flow as she was reminded how ungrateful of a daughter she was towards them.

"I'm sorry." She whispered to no one.

"Remember Aria, no one must know that you are our daughter."

A little girl nodded but couldn't help but ask why. With a smile yet a visible pain in the woman's eyes, she stated;

"Because you are our precious daughter. I don't want anyone to hurt you."

"Mommy, why would anyone hurt me? Am I not a good girl?"

"You are a good girl but that will not stop them."

Aria's cute face frowned in confusion. The woman smiled at that.

"You don't need to understand. Just stay our little girl."

Leticia Hans, one of the top models in the fashion industry and a rising actress. Everyone will do anything to become her friend and no man can resist her charm. She says one word and it will be done.

Leticia did a check on her red dress. It was hugging her body, the deep v neck design revealed a view of her melon asset making any person wanting to peek and look at her with envy and admiration. The dress had a slit on the side that just a little movement is a tease to any men anticipating to see more.

As she steps out of the car, everyone's attention gathered on her. They were eagerly trying to please her. One man with impeccable looks and height even asked to be her escort of the day.

She smiled seductively and the man almost wanted to take her right then and there if not for the fact that she moved away even before the man could do something.

She smiled at the camera before entering the hotel. The guard then dispersed the crowd after.

'See? No man can resist my charm', she thought.
