Chapter 5 - Chapter 4: Castelli Family

"I know you already have a boyfriend from the upper class but it was no use, the other party is more powerful than the upper class families of this First-Tier City in this country.They'll gonna come here tomorrow to get you."

"Are you willing to accept?", Lia's adoptive father pleaded.

"Yes.", Lia answered without hesitation.

At this time, she finally answered 'Yes' instead of 'I'll think about it'.She decided to change her route.Perhaps there might be a hope that she will not die tonight if she takes this route.

Her adoptive parents were stunned.Eloise sitting between her parents was even more shocked hearing Lia's answer.The atmosphere went silent for several seconds.

Did Lia just agreed to arrange marriage?

Lia's answer was not what they're expecting to hear.Everyone knows Lia was in a relationship with the son of an upper class Castelli Family but why did she agree?

"Aren't you still together with Eiser?", her father hesitantly asked her.

"No, we are not.Not anymore.", she answered.

Why would she want to be with a man who's cheating with her sister?Even though Eiser and her didn't really break up.She can just break up with him.

Everyone went silent while Eloise looked at Lia suspiciously.How come she was not informed about their break ups?It was impossible for Lia to break up with Eiser.Lia was just a nobody.A poor bastard that was luckily adopted by them.Talk about luck.She was also taken fancy by a son of an upper rich family.It was all because of her divine like beauty.

Talking about their break up, her parents might believe that it was Eiser that broke up with Lia but it was not!She remembered while she pestered Eiser about their sudden break up at the cafeteria.Eiser's and friends are choosing an engagement ring from several Luxury brochures for Lia.It's impossible for Eiser to break up with Lia because he really is determined to marry Lia and is already planning to marry Lia.

"Father is there anything else?I'll go back to my room.", Lia asked her father.

Her father who was in deep thought immediately shook his head and smiled widely and gently.

"Okay okay.You go to your room now.Don't do household chores anymore or cook.We can just order some foods.", he said hurriedly, afraid Lia will change her mind.

Lia stood up and walked away.While walking a thought came to her mind and stopped walking.Lia's one eyebrow lifted when she turned to look at Eloise.Eloise is busy with her phone with a frown.

In the two previous loops, Eloise followed her to tell her about the description of the man she's going to marry.An ugly old man.

She looked at the family of three.Can she really be able to do her revenge?Her mother abused her, Eloise killed her and her father ignored her and didn't support her financially in education.They all treated her like a maid.She was treated unfairly.

She never really planted anger towards this family since she was a child.At first she was confuse.Why her mother abuse her? Shouldn't her adoptive family treat her right?She used to be loved in the orphanage and was full of smiles.

Then her adoptive mother approached her and took a liking to her.She used to approach her with smiles but when her adoptive mother took her and placed her into this house.She became cold.

The nanny Selene they have in this house before is the only one who cares for her.Her nanny would always comfort her and tell her to believe in God and karma.

She used to cry whenever she was abused physically.She later learned about one's fate as God's will and one should trust God.

She endured.

She restricted her emotions and impulse by moral values.Her lively personality that was filled with emotions died, her hatred died.Her eyes would just go dull and was just silent whenever she was beaten.

Perhaps it was fate.She's fated to be like this.

Karma vs actions.Trust god.Prayers.

She bit her lower lip and closed her hands tightly.She looked away at the three.

'I can't do it.', she thought and walked away.

'I can't do my revenge.'

Her eyes went teary.

In the end she can't do her revenge.

The night came.

She was woken up by a continuous impatient lod knock and yelled at by her mother.

"Lia, open the door!!"

"You b*tch open the door and get up!!!"

Lia got up and unlocked the door.The moment she unlocked the door.The door was pushed violently and she was slapped by her mother hard.Her eyes became dull and she didn't react to the pain.She also looked away and didn't look at her mother's angered eyes.

The slap was so hard that Eloise behind her mom could feel the pain.She stared at Lia that wasn't reacting.She was satisfied that her mother slapped Lia to the point the right side of Lia's face was now red.She immediately hid her emotions and was silent.

"How dare you tell Eiser about the arranged marriage!!!Do you really want your father's several companies to go bankrupt?!Now he is here!!He even brought his parents!!!!"

Lia was stunned and frowned.

She turned off her phone and went to sleep before after sending just three words: Let's break up.She never told Eiser anything about arranging marriage!!And he even brought his parents?!

Lia looked at Eloise behind her adoptive mother with a frown.

'Is it her?'

Eloise looked away.

'Hah!Probably, it's her.Just what is she thinking?Didn't I already have accepted the arranged marriage?Eiser is already all yours!I wouldn't want that cheating man!And that Eiser, just is he thinking to the point of bringing his parents here?I'm just a lowly adopted daughter with no value.Marrying me might even destroy his image.Is breaking up with him really a big thing?'

"You!Why are you frowning?You solve this problem that you created!!You must be married to the son of that wicked man, you ungrateful wench!!",her mother dragged her out by gripping her hand tightly as if wanting to break her wrist.

Her mother breathed in and out to calm herself and finally looked at her glaring.

"You must be polite.Remember, Castelli family are an upper class family and our family are just middle class."

Her mom looked at the stairs they'll be taking and let go of her wrist.

"Let's go.",her mother said and walked like an elegant lady.

"What do you mean, she already agreed the arranged marriage?So what if the other party is more powerful than us?I believe she just agreed because she had no other choice.", Ms Castelli said in displeasure.

"But our Lia said she already broke up with Eiser."

"What?Is that true son?", Mrs. Castelli immediately turned to ask his son beside her and glared at her son.

Eiser silently look away.Both her parents are glaring at him making him feel helpless.He was also shocked Lia would suddenly break up with him.Lia was always right there for him.

He never gave Lia too much attention ever since he's having a relationship with Eloise secretly behind her since four months ago.He even stopped saying 'I love you' but Lia still there for him behavely.She never asked why and she was never clingy so he knows Lia was so in love with him to the point she endured for four months.

He just didn't expect she finally broke up with him 3 hours ago.Why now?When did they need Lia?

Lia's father was shocked at this moment while looking at the family in front of him.

Why is Mr. Castelli and Mr. Castelli are so angry at their son right now?Lia is just an adopted daughter of his family, a middle class family that is much poorer than the Castelli family that's an upper class.

So they came here too isn't because of their son's whim but because they really like Lia?

Didn't his daughter say, this couple likes her as their daughter-in-law and not Lia? His daughter said Lia doesn't even have a privilege to meet Mrs. and Mr. Castelli.What is going on?

Just when Eiser didn't know how to answer his parents.She saw Lia coming down with Mrs. Williamson and Eloise.

He hurriedly went towards her and held hers hand as if holding a fragile hands.

Lia looked at the hands of Eiser holding her and couldn't help but to feel disgusted.This man already did something immoral together with her sister like what her sister said in her previous life.

He guided Lia to sit at the empty couch so the two of them could sit together.

He held Lia's both hands and looked at Lia pretending to be in agony.

"Lia.Why did you say that 3 hours ago? Don't you love me? Don't leave me okay?I love you.Please.Let's talk it over.I know you're being forced but I can protect you from those people!I can't live without you!"

Lia frowned and awkwardly took her hands away slowly.She was disgusted.Not only he touched her hands with his dirty hands but couldn't hide the truth that he is just pretending.It was too obvious.His eyes just now was not really in agony.The way he said those words was unsightly.He didn't even know how to act!He couldn't act!

Seeing Lia's attitude of taking her hands back slowly with a frown and disgust made Eiser shocked and in disbelief while looking at their hands being separated.Everyone was shocked.

The parents of Eiser panicked.Eiser's father pulled his wife towards Lia and hurriedly kneeled in an anxious state.His wife also followed and looked at Lia as if begging.

"Please, Lia.I don't really know how my son angered you for you to break up with him.Our son really did something wrong.I'll punish him for that.Just don't break up with him okay?He planning an engagement proposal last 4 days ago but who would have thought that some people took a liking to you and was planning to marry you off to his son.It's a good thing that Eloise informed my son about the arranged marriage.My son was so anxious so he begged us to come here to help you get out from this arrange marriage with an unknown man.He was also planning to marry you tomorrow just to marry you before that man does.Our Castelli Family can protect you.We came here to support our son's plan.We are just waiting for your answer.Ah!This is our bethrothal gift as your parents in law.It has 5 million pesos in inside.", Eiser father said and hurriedly took a bank card.He took Lia's hand and stuffed the card into her hands.

The Williamson couple was shocked while looking at the attitude of the Castelli family towards Lia.

Their daughter Eloise couldn't take it anymore as her eyes got teary red.It was too unsightly for her.

She couldn't understand the attitude of Eiser's parents.These parents of Eiser's used to love her as their future daughter-in-law but now they are looking at Elicia as if begging and was even kneeling at the floor!

Eloise hatefully clutched her pajama while trying hard to not to make her tears fall.

What did Lia do to make an upper class family fall down to her feet?She was just a bastard who doesn't deserve anything!Eiser and Eiser's parents love was supposed to be hers!
