"Miss Ariana, are you okay?" The guards rushed into the room. They had all heard Ariana’s screams all through the night but couldn’t help her.
They didn’t help her because they couldn’t go against Abby’s words.
Her instructions were simple. Never let Ariana out no matter what and never leave the door post. They never left the doorpost, and they were so sure no one had stepped in. What they didn’t understand was why their Miss Ariana was screaming like someone was killing her.
"They’re going to kill me. Let me out of here." Ariana rushed towards them. She wanted to leave but the guards didn’t let her. They held her still, the Adkin’s lawyers have to see her in here to believe whatever they would say to them.
"What are you talking about Miss Ariana?" One guard asked.
"Yes, who’s here to kill you?" The others moved around the room while two held Ariana down.
"No, let me through. I can’t stay here anymore. They’ll kill me, they’re crazy people." Ariana cried out still struggling with them.
"Ma’am, no one is killing you. There’s no one in the room with you and it’s morning already." One of the guards said. He walked to the side, drawing the curtains for the morning sun to give the room a little light.
They all couldn’t believe this was the room their master had slept in for years now. It had nothing. This room was way lower than the average maid room in the estate.
The guard standing before the girl panicking like a scared cat, shook her violently.
"Calm down miss Ariana. No one is in here to kill you." He said and Ariana finally opened her eyes, panting violently as she cried.
Was it a dream?
It was morning already?
She looked around, checking her hands and her body. There were no chains bound to her hands, nothing.
She had survived through the night. This meant she was officially Osvaldo’s new wife. But Ariana didn’t feel happy about this.
What she experienced last night wasn’t something she wanted to experience again. "But..." She looked around.
The madman and Penny were here moments ago with blood dripping from them. They even gave her a bitter apple to eat. They threatened to kill her.
The madman was with a knife. A knife dripping with blood.
Ariana touched her body again, she smacked her tongue to feel the bitter taste of the apple but there was nothing.
"I’m alive," Ariana said and the guards all nodded in agreement. Finally, she was picking up.
"That’s what we have been trying to tell you, Miss Ariana. All you have to do now is wait for the lawyers to arrive like madam Abby had instructed." They said.
They all had no idea what political game Abby and her family were playing for Osvaldo’s wealth, their works were simple. To follow the instructions of whoever was in charge and mind their business.
Abby has been the one in charge for years, it’s normal they follow her instructions now.
They also had no idea why Ariana was screaming like she had seen a ghost too.
"Then what happened?" Ari muttered wondering herself. What she saw was so real, it couldn’t have been a dream.
She had seen Osvaldo and Penny, he even touched her and gave her an apple to eat. They also chained her hands and feet.
What games was Penny playing with her?
Did she think she could scare her with mere hallucinations? If she thinks she would give up because of a hallucination as terrifying as last night, then she must be dreaming.
She had survived the night, which meant she was now Osvaldo’s wife. This meant she was finally in charge of the Adkin family.
It was time for her to kick Penny out for good. If her stupid sister thinks her little trick would scare her, then she is wrong. She would show Penny who’s boss.
"Thank you for checking up on me, you can all leave now," Ariana said to the guards and they all scattered quickly.
She looked around the now empty room. She was still terrified by last night’s incident, but she had come out victorious. She didn’t die. Penny was only trying to scare her.
Though she wondered where her sister got such skills from. How did she make her hallucinate so much that everything felt so real?
Ariana hurried into the bathroom to freshen up and prepare for her day. She was now in charge of the Adkin’s family, that’s all that matters. The only thing she needed to do was endure the madman before.
Meanwhile, Abby, Greg, and Chris had all arrived at the penthouse waiting for the Adkins lawyers to arrive. Abby hadn’t slept through the night, praying and waiting for Ariana to survive, and when Barnaby confirmed she did. She had come rushing here.
She didn’t care where the madman had slept through the night, all she cared about was Ariana’s survival. That was all that mattered.
She couldn’t wait to hug Ariana. To kiss her for saving them from Penny.
"You did a good job caring for Ariana through the night. You will be rewarded for it." Abby said to Rosie who smiled. Even though she didn’t know Penny’s plan to stay locked in the room would work, she had said so to save her neck.
"Thank you," Rosie said.
"Come to think of it, where was the madman all night?" Greg asked looking around the empty Penthouse.
"I have no idea. But Hughes should know where he is." Rosie pointed at her superior who eyed her stylishly.
Hughes didn’t want to speak to the girl, but she had no choice. Now Hughes thought of it, she had left her master in the lab last night. Did he not come out?
She wondered where Osvaldo was. How have they not seen him moving around this morning? He usually did, and then Penny would lead him and tend to him for the rest of the day.
"It’s a good thing you kept him at bail through the night. Continue, at least until the lawyers are gone." Hughes nodded without a word.
