The Future Vows Prologue

My name is Arielle, a noble lady of House Vahal.

My mother, Elizabeth is the previous Duchess. My father, whome neglects his daughter winder around woman and took a ********** home and a lowly son of hers.

The duchess was kicked out because of my fathers impudent actions throughout the years.

and the ********** became the new lady of the house. I had to save my mother from this hideous place and over the years she live in a normal village away from the Vahal Estate, I've worked hard to follow up her everyday expenses.

As a young girl of age in 18, I already own various business buildings and successful investments from business to one another.

Of course, while not using the name of Vahal. I was able to manifest a new identity throughout the years, I'm only waiting to become fully grownup to leave this helish place.

If, I was known as the genius of the century under a name unknown and identified as private. I was nothing in this house, where maids bully and harassed me as they please, while father neglects my existence, that ********** would often mocked me and insult me whenever she can.

There is also the son, who thinks he owns the duchy. Like mother, like son rotting in displeasing smell.

I was the unwanted child, the one who didn't deserve anything even though I am a full fledge born from a noble blood. My mother is the empress sister, the empress and my sister is the daughter of Helllark Couples who died from an accident in a journey they went.

The Helllark Family had been in state of scubbus since then. The land was confiscated neither its name, but because the empress still lives before, the marquess was save in a temporary salvation but that didn't also ended well when the empress was poisoned and died.

I lost hope, and thought it was lost. I found opportunities to change our fates to which will see the future.

Morning and the chippers flickers unto my bird. So, I immediately wake up and looked at the dark and messy room that hasn't been cleaned since.

I figured those lowly maids would come harassed me again. Thought, they are merely maids, they throw their fits unto the neglected daughter of the duke and make me suffer like a rats hiding under the sewers.

When I look, a woman was already beside me, her wrinkle face prove that I know here, those sharp gazes that wants to tear me off makes me wanna look at her in the same attitude.

Madam Lune

My, even childrens have manners. How dare such forgotten child, knows nothing of a proper manner!

This woman... I figure that she's here again to pester my day...

Arielle

Madam Lune, if my manner is bad, you should take proper etiquette class... I just learned it from you anyways...

Madam Lune

T-this!! You really are ignorant!! No wonder the Duke won't even dare to look at you!! This ugly being!

Arielle

Tsk, go and bark on the gate. I don't need a dog to aid me, please close the doors, I feel like owning this disgusting sight on myself.

I had enough with them. They think they are superior than me, or I am inferior that needs no more to be cared about. I shifted my gaze and waited her to leave but she look at me angrily.

Madam Lune

Hmm, no matter what you say, in this house no one is on your side! Learn your manners, you won't be eating for another day.

She left with a warning but that didn't really change anything at all. Cause today is my 18th birthday, the day I've been waiting about since the day I send my mother away.

Finally, it's time for revenge.

I quietly looked at myself in the mirror as I exchange glances with the aid beside me. She might be shock that I even own a dress such as like this, that was fleshly trend that looks like a commoners outfit.

Celene, one of the biggest brands. So, it was also my biggest profit.

It was made it as a simple dress anyways. I'll be moving out later, and as you know, my things have been secretly transferred in a small rural house in the capital near north.

Once the party is done. I'll say goodbye to this house. Yes, as I was still a daughter of this house, I am to be introduced in the Social Circle that is the reason I am having a grant birthday party as to show an action that my father still cares.

I swear, he had to do this but luckily it was my greatest opportunity to expose the duke from a crime murder.

I quietly smile and left my room.
