Left In Pieces...

Chapter:-28 You are not worth it...

Third person's p.o.v

Brandon was so angry that he smacked her hard completely ignoring the fact, she was pregnant with his child. He grabs her hair jn tight grip and dragged her towards the door, her feet stumbled and she falls down.

"You dare to touch this dress with that dirty hand of yours, how dare you... You are not worth it..."

Aria thankfully lands on the bed, she looks terrified her trembling hands and scared eyes were prominent, she placed a hand on her stomach trying to brace herself, Brandon was beside her his hands extended to grab her hairs again but she moved back, closing her eyes completely waiting for another smack.

"What the hell do you think you are doing, abusing your pregnant wife, are you out of your mind..." She opend her eyes slowly and saw her mother in law holding his hands, she pushed him back.

"Mom she tore Rose's favourite dress, I don't even allow the maids to touch it and how can she, first of all who gave her the fucking right to touch it..." He yells, his mom stops him from coming close. She turns to Aria.

"Why are you wearing the dress..." Aria was still on bed clutching her stomach, his mom felt sympathy for the girl bit it was gone within a second.

"I... He asked me to wear a dress I came to... The room... but I couldn't find any... So I searched his... Closet... I don't know... Why I wore... It..." His mom looks around the room and found a torn dress in the corner, it was ruined, now she understood what her son meant by dress, she gave Brandon a look of disbelief.

"Leave..." Both Brandon and Aria look at her she was looking at Brandon, "but mom..." He whined like a child.

"I said leave..." He gave one last glare of disgust to Aria. "Don't think this ends here... Bitch..."

"Brandon leave the fucking room.." she shouts at him, he slammed the door and left the room.

"Here take this..." She gave Aria a glass of water, "you should have asked him clearly, he is not someone with a lot of patience, you should know by now... This dress was the one Rose wore on her reception, its very close to him, come with me I'll give you something to wear and I should also send this dress to boutique, they will patch it up...."

"Tha..." Aria was about to say when the lady stopped her with her hands. "No need... I just can't see all this... Even though you should be rotting in a jail but my brainless son can't understand a simple thing..." Aria nods with a teary eyes.

Even though this women was giving her a cold shoulder but she saved her from the monster, she very slowly stood up from the bed, taking the support of the wall she took small and steady steps, she froze when a hand was placed on her shoulder and other in her back.

"I shouldn't be doing this... But you make me wonder that someone with such a innocent face can do something like that..." Aria only kept quite.

They came to her mother in law's room, she asked Aria to sit on the bed, after sometime she came back with two cute dresses.

"Choose any one of them... My daughter bought them for me.."she had a smile on her face, Aria falt her heart hurt looking at the way her mother in law if she could call her that smiled at just the mention of her daughter, she always wanted such type of relationship with her mom, but it was just a dream which won't ever come true.

She look at the dress both were pretty but the one of peach colour having mesh of red colour with roses, it was just too cute not to like, so she hesitated to touch it, still afraid what if her mother in law got mad.

"Thank you Mrs knight..." She only nods in acknowledge and asked her to get ready soon, Aria opened the door and was about to leave when she saw Brandon just passing by, her breath hitched she moved back in and closed the door.

"I told you go leave the room, why are you here again..."

"He's outside... Can I change here I'll be quick, I don't want to face him now..." She got  a nod  and she hurried  to remove the dress but then she stopped now very carefully she removed the dress and kept is aside.

She heard gasp, lifting her head up, her mother in law looked pale,she move towards Aria. "These marks... Is it because..." Aria nods her head she gave a weak smile to the middle aged women.

She wore the dress and when she was done left the room leaving a speechless Miranda.

Her in-laws left early for the function, apparently her father in law got a award and they were here to attend it, now Brandon also have to go with them his dad wanted to introduce him to his friends from underworld, for others it was a simple function but for them it was very important they were going to talk about the recent deaths and all the other things.

Brandon was waiting in the car, his mom has warned him not to harm the girl, he said yes to it, he won't hurt her till his parents are here, his mom will stop talking to him of she saw him doing something bad with the murder of his wife and child, his mom was too good for herself, even after knowing this girl killed their Rose and his baby she wants him to behave nicely to her.

Aria came beside him and stood for sometime,  "shall we go..." He scoffs at her, "as you wish mam..." The journey to the venue, it was all silent , Aria kept glancing at him her hands always on her stomach it was like a habit to feel her baby whenever she felt anxious and now when she's siting beside him, she was damn anxious.

"Stop staring at me you creep, are you a physco..." His words hurt but so did his actions.  They reached the venue Brandon parked the car, she came out but her dress got stuck in the door, she lifts her head to ask him to help her only to find him gone, now she was alone on the parking lot, trying to take her drees out of the door, After sometime it was futile to even try so she sat down, she felt drained now-a-days she got tired easily she needs to see a doctor soon.

"Are you dumb what are you still doing here, my mom scolded me cause of you, you are doing this deliberately I know..." Aria took deep breaths to calm herself down, this guy will surely give her a panick attack soon.

"My Dress... It's stuck.." he stops, with a huff he opened the door and removed it.

They entered the place it was screaming luxury, "Don't leave my side if you want to stay in one piece.
