All Chapters of Daughter-in-law strikes harder: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

The next morningMiller's mansionAria's bedroomAria woke up tired and stressed on the bed that she was sprawled upon, with so much that seemed so strange to her. The last thing she remembered from the previous day was drinking from her tequila, and feeling so drowsy till the point that she could stand up again. 'I could have just died like that if last night was a plot to kill me.' Aria shook her head in her carelessness, as she tried to stand up even if her entire body was aching badly. Suddenly, her brain awakened and she realized that her drink being drugged, was a bit of an issue she should not take with levity. She quickly stood up and casted her dress to the floor in front of the dresser, as she checked every part of her body to see that nothing had gone wrong at all. "Shit. What happened when I fell asleep?" Aria mumbled over and over again, as she moved in circles because of the restlessness that hit her heart. 'Only she and Dalton shared the room, so there was no wa

The entire state of Dalton had become restless and so sad, ever since Aria's disappearance from the house and her confirmed traveling. There was no way that he could be himself knowing that his wife was suffering that much, when he had ignored her so badly all those years. He could never forgive himself. He had told every of his family members to return to their house immediately, which included his mother, sisters, and even most of their maids. Every room that was initially occupied in the house was locked, and only a few maids, gardeners, butlers, and control room operators were left. Many things about Dalton became empty after the second day of finding out about Aria's condition, with his connections with people across different parts of the country helping him to make underground searches and investigations. Alex had been working tirelessly too from airport to airport, to confirm the airways that Aria took to wherever she went to. He checked seaports and every means he fel

Ariana, who is still identifying as Aria, had returned to check on her sister in Italy, whose vitals were improving to stability already, and could move her body parts too according to signals. She also met with the foreign investigator to whom she had paid lots of money days before, and presented evidence that she had against Eva to speed up investigations against her. He teamed up with some of his group back in California, who did most of the remaining research covertly. Her health condition seemed to be deteriorating too with an increase in pain by the day, which put her in fear that her sister might not wake up soon enough to see her. And with all those burdens in her heart, she missed Dalton too even if she wouldn't accept it. The fear that she might never see him again also clung to her heart, and caused an ache that refused to go even if she tried to wade the thoughts away. It brought near tears to her face too because it was too sad for her to handle the turmoil her life wa

Ariana was sprawled comfortably early in the morning of the next day on the bed, drowning in a mess of white sheets that had intertwined her body. She closed her eyes after she had opened it for a while, and pulled in a long relaxing breath before she opened it again. Her eyes traced slowly from the transparent glass walls of the underwater bedroom that they had slept in, and then to Dalton who was still sleeping on the bed by her side. She watched the underground ocean sight that was before her, and the sea animals that swam above their heads like it was going to peek through any minute. She turned to stare at Dalton in complete awe again, as she breathed slowly in and out trying to contain the feeling that was beginning to overwhelm her. Her eyes were almost brimming with tears as her throat parched in pain at what would soon be their reality. The thought of it was too sad for her to bear. Pulling herself together, Ariana stood up from the bed and walked to the floor of the nea

Dalton was so heartbroken than ever that it was extremely hard to believe that he had fallen too much for the lady, who was never ready to stay with him because of their ill fate. It didn't matter how much he cried, grieved, or searched, he could not be okay knowing the reality of everything that had happened. Collin did not leave with the helicopter that transferred Ariana out of the city, because he would feel guilty if he had to lie to Dalton's face that he didn't know where she was, if they ever met. He just contacted her group from Italy that picked her up to know if they arrived safely. The Miller company stocks fell even more and almost hit rock bottom, while a lot of people withdrew their shares from the companies in the space of a week. A lot of investigations were going on about Eva's case which included going in and out of the mansion, and the sisters too were called for questioning because Dalton refused to go. The news on the headlines both day and night was always
