Reborn For Vengeance: The Mafia Don’s Reborn Doll

Ava’s POV I looked over at myself through the small, cracked mirror of my shabby room. My room isn't shabby because I was dirty or lazy, it was because there was not a penny for upgrades. I ransacked my old dressing table and fortunately saw an old tiny earring I smiled upon seeing it, half bread is better than none at least I adjusted my tight-fitted old prom gown, which my mom had gotten me before she, along with her prominent relatives died in a car accident ten years ago I had no makeup on since I didn't have any to chance upon “Bring me coffee”, Sophia — My stepmother shouted at the top of her voice from the living room I hurriedly went into the kitchen in order not to cause another argument since arguing with her and her two devil-like daughters—Charlotte and Mia is like arguing with a brick, you would never win I quickly made a hot coffee with visible steam rising from the cup “It has gone cold’, she said squinting her face but drank it nevertheless because she also knew I had a bad temper behind my gentle persona “Mom, we are going to have a blast at the party tonight and Charlotte is meeting up with her boyfriend, whom she has missed a lot” Mia said, chewing gum sassily, coming out in a very short emerald gown and high heels, her ass cheek is almost out of the fabric Charlotte followed behind in a white backless gown, her cleavages poking, she's the busty type “Bye mum”, they both waved and gave me an evil eye roll then left with the sound of their heels kissing the tiled floor resounding in my ears I scurried outside to catch up with them They are now inside the black SUV which I knew was the gift mom gifted herself in celebration of her last birthday before she died “Can I come with you guys”, I asked, even though I already knew what their answer would be “Get lost, we don't want people thinking we are related to a stinking bin like you”, Charlotte said, spraying her expensive cologne, which would probably cost more than I'm worth in the air Mia zoomed off almost knocking me down I stood there dejectedly with my heart pounding I always feel like this anytime they do this stuff I browsed online with my other symptoms and it led to a heart problem There was no money to do a check-up Nobody cares… Since my mom died, my life has become my worst nightmare My dad inherited her company since he was the only one in her will that could do so She loved him blindly I knew he was the one who killed my mom and her relatives, who could rival him in terms of taking the company My dad took my stepmother and her two daughters in just three days I became a guest, no, a slave in my mother's hard-earned territory I couldn't go with them in my mother's SUV, literally mine!! I staggered at the feeling of my frightening chest I checked my time and saw that I still had some minutes left to trek I started walking, almost running I had to see my high school boyfriend, whom I had lost contact with years back I had missed him so much My vision almost became blurry with each passing car's headlights but I still kept on going I arrived at the event Hall gate sweating profusely from my temples The event hall is completely lit up and so damn tall with flashy lights surrounding it Painted white and gold with a very deep blue swimming pool at the far end I can already hear people's chatter from inside and my step-sisters’ evil laughter from where I was standing not far from the entrance I entered nevertheless, I must see Ethan—my boyfriend I was so sure he would’ve missed me a lot All eyes fell on me immediately I entered and I must say that I felt timid for some fleeting moment but waved it off and stood my ground “Why is she here” “Who is she here for” “Seems she ran her way here” “She couldn’t afford taxi bills” “Is that how poor she's” “Heard her father was the original owner of the company, not her mum as she claimed” “She should've probably known she isn't wanted here” “Damn, I can't stand her” “Is the old aunty making up for me” “So because her mum is dead, she couldn't take proper care of herself” “Who invited her” “Does she still think she belongs here” “Oh my! We need a waste disposer here” “No, an odour extinguisher would be better” “She looks old” “She looks shabby” “Oh my! Is the faded dress for me* “Am I the only one seeing the old tiny earrings” “She spoilt the atmosphere” “Who is f*****g this s**t hole” “Can't imagine how down there would be” Different hate comments and insults came raining down on me from different corners My classmates never liked me from the start because I was an introvert even till now I don't talk to anybody so they took that for pride and being full of myself I never cared though It worsened when my mom died when I was about to finish high school, and my stepsisters came into the picture Charlotte and Mia would join hands with other bullies and badmouth me and make school a living hell for me I staggered at the remembrance of my worst days in high school But my boyfriend was always there for me He was always by my side anytime they came against me The thought of running into him soon made my face light up in excitement And then I saw him coming from afar with his arm wide-opened and his perfect teeth shining under the crystal chandelier I began running but stopped abruptly when I saw another lady running towards him That is definitely Charlotte, I recognized the lady with her white backless gown She ran with her sinful a ss cheek clapping under the white fabric She stood on her toes while Ethan grabbed her waist possessively and kissed her I ran mad I fell on my butt
