Aria was very happy that day. She was getting married to the love of her life. She and Liam decided to get married on a cruiseship with only family present and later hold a grand reception. Dressed in a beautiful white wedding dress, she looked no less than a princess. Feeling like she was flying in the sky between clouds, Aria's happiness and joy had no boundaries when she got a message on from Liam on her phone.
"Come to the deck. I have a huge suprise for you."
Looking at the message, Aria got very excited and rushed towards the deck only to freeze at the sight infront of her. There stood her step-sister in her fiance's arms, teasing him. Her parents and brother also present but not even speaking a single word.
"Yo...You...This?..How?When?" Aria shouted in agony as tears started to fell from her eyes.
They all began to laugh watching Aria wailing wailing in pain.
Stepping closer, Eliana push her to the edge of deck, laughing mockingly.
"You don't even realise it now. The one whom Liam loves has always been me. I introduced Liam to you just so that you can help him take over the Lewis coperation in the same manner you did for dad, John and me. You were always just a puppet to us. A puppet to use and now discard."
"No...NO! You are lying." Aria shouted in anguish.
"Oh! but I am not. No one here loves you. You are just a stepping stone for us and now that you have completed your purpose and we have no other need of you, its time for you to leave forever." Eliana snorted with laughter.
"Liam, you tell them. Tell them you love me." Aria begged Liam but Liam just sneered at her.
"Love? And to you? Have you even seen yourself in the mirror. How can I love someone like you. The one I love has and will aways be Eliana. The only reason I allowed someone like you to come close to me is because I had a little use of you but now you are useless."
Listening to such cruel words from the love of her life, Aria fall on her knees and started to laugh madly as tears of regret started to fall down her cheeks. Looking at her father standing at the side, watching, Aria stood up. Moving closer to the edge, Aria looked at everyone present there.
"You think you have won. You think you all can discard me after using me. Hahahaha..." Laughing, Aria looked at everyone and sneer.
"Until now, you saw my love, now you will see my hatred. Even if I die today, you all will lose everything. EVERYTHING!." shouted Aria, confusing everyone.
"What do you mean? WHat have you done?" Eliana shouted in frustration but Aria just smiled mockingly at them and wipe away her tears.
Infact, When the family moved to the Capital city, Aria made a friend, Emily Davis. Emily also belonged to a rich family and was Aria's best friend. She always told Aria that the Thomas family was using her but Aria didn't agree.
But once the seed of doubt is implanted, it is difficult to remove it. Even though she didn't really believe what Emily said, she still gathered all the evidence against them which in time of emergencies will directly be sent to Emily which she did now.
"If there is a next life, I will never repeat the same mistake again and trust you people. I will have my revenge even if I die." Aria declared as she press a button on her phone and jump into the sea.
Everyone rushed forward, but Aria was gone.

....
Even though Aria died that day, her soul didn't extinguish. She saw it all. What happened to James Thomas and his family after she died. Emily, using her resoureces, exposed the Thomas family to everyone. Each member of the Thomas family and Liam were sent to prison and Thomas Coperation was bankrupt. Evening after watching this, Aria didn't find peace as her soul continued to wander around.
She also saw Sophia, who after divorce went back to her parent's house but soon lost them in an accident and was later admitted to a mental hospital as she couldn't handle the lose her daughter and parents. Looking at her mother's condition, Aria was filled with regrets as she watched her mother die of old age at the hospital.
.....
As her soul continued to wander around, she drifted to a peculiar and mystifying space. The space contained everything a living being might need. Bored, Aria roamed around and found a huge library containing millions of books on almost everything. Having nothing else to do anyway, she decided to read the books there.
Aria didn't know how much time has passed. Maybe a 100 years or maybe even a 1000 years as she continued to read the books present there. By now she has almost finished more than half of the books in the library. There was even a magical practice room were she will practice the skills she had learned, completely mastering them.
This all continued when suddenly one day, the space around her shook and Aria lost herconsciousness.
