Old Master cross reminded, “dominic, she is your sister-in-law.” Dominic Cross suddenly laughed, “How interesting. She is my sister-in-law. Have you forgotten that Aria is my wife? Don’t tell me you want me to make my wife suffer for my sister-in-law? I, Dominic, will not allow such a thing.” Old Master Cross did not say anything else. Instead, he saw Dominic stand up and say to Sarah, “The rules of the Cross family are based on appearances. Sister-in-law, you must not forget that as a member of the Cross family, you must abide by our rules, unless you no longer want to be a member of the Cross family.” With that, dominic strode out of the dining area. When he went upstairs to look for Aria, he realized that the woman was not in the room. He stopped the servant and asked coldly, “Where is the second madam?” The maid replied, “The second madam ran out crying just now. I don’t know where second madam is now.” Dominic walked around the Cross residence, but he did not see Aria anywhere. It seemed that she had gone to hide somewhere to cry. In the end, he stopped looking and just let her cry outside. When she was done crying, she came back. Aria picked up his phone and called his assistant.” Hello, help me buy a house near the Bennett residence.” “Yes, yes, sir. What are you looking for? How many rooms do you want? Is it for investment or for living? A villa or a foreign house?” The assistant quickly answered and began to ask questions. Dominic replied, “To live alone. A villa. The sooner the better.” The assistant said, “Yes, I will help you find what you’re looking for.” After hanging up the phone, Dominic turned around and went upstairs. It seemed that they really could not stay in the Cross family’s residence much longer. He originally wanted Sarah to bully Aria, but in the end, it was Aria who retaliated. The Cross family was becoming more and more chaotic. Every day, Cross’s mind was stuck at home. With Aria’s personality, he clearly did not need to worry about being bullied, but he was always afraid that she would be wronged. In order to put an end to this matter, they had to move. After doing this, dominic only had to wait for Aria to come back. Then, he would inform her about moving out. He waited and waited. When it got dark, he did not wait for Aria to come back. Instead, he called Aria. His phone could be heard ringing through the cracks in the sofa cushions. ...... Aria did not bring her phone with her when she left the house. Realizing this, Dominic started to look for her. He stopped a servant and asked, “Have you seen the second young madam?” The servant shook her head. She did not dare to speak to dominic directly. Dominic frowned and went to the monitoring room. Aria was brought out by the servant in the afternoon. After she broke free, she went out alone. Dominic sat in the monitoring room thinking. He understood that Aria would not return to her mother’s house after being wronged. It was already so late. Where would she go? The young girl was penniless in the middle of the night. She did not even bring her cell phone. If she did not return home in the middle of the night, she could not possibly do anything else. Dominic had no clue at all. However, he understood one thing: he could not just wait. ... Aria ran out of the Cross family’s house in the afternoon after the angry fight. After she came out, she realized that she had not brought anything with her. In order to not let her parents worry, she could only look for her best friend, Natalie miller. Miller’s family background was not bad. Her father and brother were both police officers, and her mother was a businesswoman. Although Natalie was not a socialite like Aria, no one dared to provoke her. This was mainly because she had a brother who doted on her like his life depended on it — Liam Miller. As long as Natalie said the word, there was almost nothing that her brother could not do. She and Aria were fated to meet. She did not expect the two of them to have similar personalities and become best friends who talked about everything. As for the matter of the cross family forcing the marriage, Aria only told Natalie about it. At that time, Natalie was indignant and wanted to stand up for Aria, but she stopped her. “Please don’t. The Cross family is not to be trifled with. Don’t involve your mom in this.” Aria had stopped her in the end, and Natalie Miller finally gave up. Aria never thought that when she met her best friend again, she would actually seek her help. She walked for three hours before she reached the He family’s house. She knocked on the door, and the person who opened it was He Lili. “nat, can I stay at your house for one night?” When she saw her best friend, Aria’s started crying. She wiped the tears off her face and asked the question in a pleading tone. Natalie said, “What nonsense are you talking about? Of course you can. Don’t even mention it for a second!” Seeing her best friend, Nat pulled her into the house. “Aria, what happened to you? Did the cross family bully you?” Aria nodded. In front of Natalie miller, she would never hide anything. “They did bully me, but I’m not someone to be trifled with. I hit them back.”
