"You give me money. And I did what you wanted. It is you who is the real failure. My plan worked, but you could not break her ankle. That was your responsibility in the field. So stop screaming like a cunt," Alexy criticized another person on the phone. It was Elizabeth who gave Alexy the money to damage Bella's boot and due to which Bella was injured.
"Why didn't you spread rotten skin powder? You had just arranged some small needles which just hurt her feet, not that point where she will handicap," Elizabeth screamed in anger. They both had talked for days about this plan where they had agreed to ruin Bella from everywhere, but in the end, she suffered a minor injury that would heal in days.
"Do you want me to go behind the bars? I don't want to kill someone. If you broke her ankle while playing, it will look like an accident and we would be safe. Apparently, you want me to do everything and go to prison while you, Her Majesty, want to eat sweet grapes, doing nothing," Alexy shouted in anger. First, Isabella was fine after everything she did. Second, Elizabeth blamed her, calling her a loser.
"Didn't I feed you money?" Elizabeth reprimanded with a taunting voice that made Alexy crazy, "I am not poor, bitch. I can buy your entire generation. I didn't touch your shit money. Tomorrow, I will come live to burn your money. I hope, you will have fun watching." Alexy cut the call and kicked the nearby table in fury. This was the first time someone looked down on her while she took a bath in money every single day.

"Stop sulking like an old man," Merry said, approaching Bernard, who was sitting in the backyard. He had no mood to talk. His troubling heart was scared, as it couldn't choose a way that did not hurt his daughter. One month wasn't a big time, it would pass in a blink but Bella would be out of his eyes was scared him.
"Am I bad, Dad?" Bernard asked, releasing a breath of anguish.
"No, you're not," replied Merry carefully, to ease him. She sat beside him and stay silent for a moment to give him quiet time. As a single father, Bernard had a small world that revolved around his daughter. He didn't think about the future, like getting his daughter married or asking his daughter to go out to be independent. His daughter was the crown of his head.
"She is a big girl, Bernard. I know your feelings, but she has spread her wings. Let her fly. Maybe in the future, she wants to go to other countries for further study then it will be years. You can't stop her," said Merry, and her words made sense. He had thought about himself; his love, and his care, but Isabella was young and a complete adventure was waiting for her.
'Merry is right. He can not hide her in the room. She deserves more and great things.
'
"Yes, you are right. I think I overreacted," Bernard said with a nod. Merry's words helped him to think further of his small world. He had to apologize because he ruined her daughter's special day.
Inside the house, everyone was sitting with their phone in their hands while Bella was looking at the backyard with her face on her knee. She didn't know if aunt Merry had convinced her dad, which seemed difficult.
She wanted to go and talk to her father. By hugging him, Bella wanted to say that she would not be gone forever. Just one month and she will meet him every day after college. He was everything to her; her mother, her life. But she couldn't stop herself from thinking about Alexander and that's why she took this decision and was desperate.
After a few minutes, she saw that Aunt Merry and her father had entered the house. She kept her gaze still on the way backyard. Seeing her father coming, she jumped on the couch and ran to her father.
"Dad, are you angry?" Isabella asked as her tears gathered in her eyes but no one realized it except for her father, who felt his t-shirt get wet.
"Yes, I was, but I realized my selfish side. I don't mind now, you can stay with Danny for a month, enjoy your life," whispered Bernard, hugging his daughter. He too got emotional but accepted the reality and it eased his heart.
"Thank you, dad," Isabella sniffled in between her words. And with that new journey begins.

In a deep, dark forest, a human figure was sitting with dead bodies around it. One after the other, she sucked the blood off those bodies until there was no more blood in them.
Casey twisted her neck while blood covered her whole body. Her eyes were black, and she looked like a woken monster. She gazed around her while smiling with blood covered mouth. She then changed her cloth with a dead before gathering them in a pile. After that, she poured oil on them to burn those bodies with her bloody clothes.
The pile of corpses caught fire Casey stood with folded hands in front of her chest, and a vicious smile still lingering on her face. She was feeling good as the amount of blood she consumed fully satisfied her thirst and she became stronger.
"You should have killed me, Bella. Instead, you made me strong and hungry. Oh! I am coming for you, darling. First, I will eliminate each of your loved ones, then I'll finish you forever."
