Chapter 2: Revenge
If it weren’t for her stepmother and step-sister, Ella’s life wouldn’t be falling apart like this.
The stepmother and her stepsister deliberately put drugs in her drink when she was 18 years old. The first time everyone would recognize her as an adult.
After that, they sent her to the bed of a stranger she didn’t even know.
Not a trace of memory from that night remained... Ella didn’t know a thing about who the man was.
She thought nothing would happen, but who would’ve known that one month later, she found out she was pregnant.
All this time, Ella thought the man on that night was her fiancé whom she had loved for years. She thought she had given up her first night to the fiancé she had loved since childhood.
Ella desperately tried to protect the child in her womb and even went against her father in order to give birth to the child.
.....
Ella was ready to risk her life for the child she loved so much.
For the sake of the man she loved...
Alas, what did she find out instead?
Her fiancé and her stepsister made love right next to her room in a loud voice, not caring if anyone would hear it. They didn’t try to cover up their disgusting behavior, and instead deliberately spitting it out so Ella could hear the voices.
Those disgusting voices were like an insult aimed at her, piercing right into her heart. They seemed to want to tell how stupid Ella had been all this time.
Turns out, this was all their plan...
Shocked and angry, Ella ended up having to give birth to her baby prematurely. But after giving birth, she found that her child was gone.
All of that made her emotions collapse at the same time.
She had lost everything.
She lost her family, lost the man she loved, lost the child in her womb...
When Ella needed someone who could support her and make her rise again, her father sent her to a mental hospital instead. For five years her father locked her in a place no different from hell.
During these past five years, everyone ignored her. She lost the inheritance left by her mother and was sent to a mental hospital, where death seemed a far more beautiful choice than life.
Every day was torture for Ella, she kept wondering if her child was really dead. She couldn’t believe all this had happened to her. She was sure her child was still out there, it pained her everytime she thought how the little baby could survive alone without its mother...
Ella’s life used to be like that of a princess. She came from a wealthy family, and she was the eldest daughter of the Maheswara Family.
She was beautiful, smart, and rich...
However, everything was suddenly taken away from her. She was no longer a princess, but a little ant that anyone could trample on.
The 18 years old Ella used to be very innocent.
At 18 years old, She used to love and trust her family very much.
And at 18 years old, Ella fell so hard that she had to lose her happiness.
Her life had been ruined because of the people she trusted.
Now, everything was no longer a problem.
Ella who used to be gone.
Ella, finally out of the cage that had locked her in, was finally able to breathe free air. Even though she had to spend 5 years in a mental hospital, she was still young. She was only 23 years old and she still had plenty of time to get all those who hurt her to pay her double what she felt.
Ella was sure that her child was not dead. Those bad people must have hidden her child, separating him from her.
She would find her son and then destroy the lives of those who had hurt her and her baby. She would take revenge!
“Auntie, I want to go back to the Maheswara Family’s house.”
Ella’s lips curved into a smile, but not a happy one. It was rather a cold smile! That smile looked scary even in the eyes of Lina, who had known Ella since she was a baby.
Never once had she seen such a smile on Ella’s face.
The once innocent girl had been forced to grow up in the past 5 years, the 5 toughest years of her life.
Ella wanted to return to the Maheswara Family’s house to find out where her child was. He still couldn’t believe that the boy was dead.
“Ella, you better... you better not come back today.” Lina’s face showed a mix of embarrassment, anxiety, nervousness and awkwardness. Her eyes were filled with sympathy for Ella.
She saw the woman in front of her from childhood until she grew up to be an adult. At the age of 18, Lina knew that Ella was experiencing the greatest suffering in her life.
And Lina didn’t want the girl she raised to suffer even more, especially when she returned to her family home today.
Ella tilted her head and looked at Lina in confusion.
“Today is the engagement day between Indri and Haikal,” said Lina quietly.
The Maheswara Family’s cruelty towards Ella made Lina feel even more depressed. Maybe they didn’t even remember Ella’s whereabouts anymore.
Maybe they didn’t care if Ella was alive or dead...
Ella had really been abandoned.
Haikal...
Ella’s memory flashed when she heard that name. She hadn’t heard that name in a long time.
The name of the man who was once her fiancé since childhood.
The man who always said that he loved her.
The man who said that one day he would marry her.
The man whom she thought would be the father of her child.
The man who slept with her step sister under the same roof as her...
“My sister is getting engaged. How could I, as a big sister, not come and congratulate her?”
Ella erased all the feelings in her heart and a cold smile appeared on her lips.
She was no longer the 18-year-old Isabella. She wasn’t the same girl who was devastated by her fiancé’s betrayal. Neither a mother who grieved the loss of her child.
Today was the day she got discharged from the mental hospital, and Ella was already 23 years old.
She had turned into Ella, someone who wanted to come and take revenge for all the suffering she had felt so far.
She walked away from where she had stayed for the past 5 years gracefully, letting the dry leaves that fell from the trees land on her shoulders.
The car on the side of the road reflected her beautiful face, but the smile on her face was neither a sweet nor an innocent smile like 5 years ago.
It was a bitter and cold smile, as if to tell the world that she had returned to collect a debt.
After five years, Isabella Maheswara finally returned.
And she came for those who had turned her life into hell...
