The Heiress

Crocodile tears

Verra Cami sat across from her and sipped her tea gracefully — she was behaving like a high-class noble now. Even though the Cami family is a destitute noble. She wanted to laugh about it now.

"It's been three years, have you considered my request?" she said coldly

Ariel raised an eyebrow "What are you talking about? Wasn't it obvious that Rory wasn't part of us. There's no Cartier's blood in her blood.” She hissed

“You insolent child!” The middle-aged woman half shouted at her, causing several visitors to look at them and whisper her name. Some people even take pictures and start taking videos on their phones.

The two of them had only been sitting for about ten minutes and Verra had already started her play. She wanted to roll her eyes now.

Ariel put on a cold face and smiled lightly at Verra "You know, maybe Rory is a product of your one night stand"

“Cartier’s with their arrogance. You are just like your parents, Cartier is a demon hiding within a beautiful human body.”

"Thank you, I take that as a compliment" she said calmly "But even so, we are rich. Wealth will always be with the devil, isn't it Aunt Cami?"

“Yes, unfortunately you all are too greedy”

“Are you describing your family? Cami's wanted something that wasn't theirs in the first place" she said condescendingly and Verra clenched her fists.

Ariel put a few cube of sugar into her tea and stirred it gently “If you are smart, you never try to snatch the wealth that belongs to a bunch of demons. But if you keep insisting, of course you have to be prepared for all the consequences that you will face, Aunt Cami" she said while sipping her tea, her piercing blue eyes didn’t leave Verra Cami's frozen face in front of her

“You don't want to give your fortune to Rory because that's all you have, do you? You are the sole proprietor of all of Cartier's fortune in England, if it were to be given to Rory you would own nothing. You're afraid of being poor because you're the spoiled youngest Cartier."

“Isn't that you who is afraid of being poor? All noble families know that you are a poor noble and they also know that all of that is the result of your negative family behavior."

"I do not care. I won't stop until I have what’s mine and see you punished for being too greedy, Ariel" she hissed sharply

That didn't scare her “Aunt Cami” she hissed as she kept her teacup “I would never give a penny of my fortune to Rory Cami. Even if I die my fortune won't fall into the hands of anyone who doesn't deserve it."

Verra screamed in desperation and cried, “Rory is a part of Cartier! What do I have to prove to make you believe?!”

“We've made sure of it as much as you want. Rory Cami is not the daughter of Abraxas Cartier.” She sighed softly as she closed her eyes as her head throbbed a little "You also don't have the right to the big name Cartier, but secretly you changed the Rory surname to Cartier"

"I do not care. Rory is Cartier” she paused for a moment “You know, maybe I just can't never beat a demon like you. But what if another demon tries to fight you, hm?” she said with a sinister smile

She immediately opened her eyes and stared coldly at the middle-aged woman in front of her "You're shameless, Verra Cami" she said calmly and immediately got up from his seat.

Yes, the Cami is shameless for using other people to protect and fight for them.

Ariel did not pay attention to Verra who shouted her name from inside the cafe and immediately got into her Audi. Verra create too much fuss today and she was a little tired. Maybe a piece of blueberry cheesecake would make her day better.

She entered into BB's pastry and smelled the fragrance of the cakes being baked. It has always been her favorite scent. A girl at her age greeted her with a friendly “Welcome, Miss Cartier”

She sighed softly "I told you to call me Ariel, Diana"

The blonde haired girl smiled a little “Okay Ariel, you want as usual? I just made your favorite!” she said enthusiastically

“Blueberry cheesecake?!” asked Ariel excitedly

"Yes!" Diana said with no less excited "How many cake pan do you want?"

It was true, coming here could make her mood better. The blueberry cheesecake recipe made by Diana's mother has always been her favorite since childhood. But no, it’s far from that because since his mother was pregnant with her, she always ate blueberry cheesecake made by Maria – Diana's mother.

BB's pastry is a place that she and her mother often go to for a light conversation after school. Her mother would always pamper her every day by buying her a tray full of Blueberry Cheesecake. This place holds many memories with his mother.

Therefore, she did not let this shop go bankrupt when aunty Maria's was in debt from her husband who just left leaving behind a lot of debt. She stretched out her hand and asked the her to never close her shop.

Aunt Maria was very grateful to her. Many people consider the cake shop owner very lucky. But the truth is she was the lucky one. Because one of the many places that holds memories with his mother still exists and is preserved.

"I want three" she said "is it still available? you don't usually make a lot of blueberry cheesecake?" asked Ariel curious

The girl in front of her smiled “Because you came, so I made extra. You always come here and buy a lot every time you're in New York."

"Ah, you're so cute" he said hoarsely and giggled "Diana, why did you put four boxes in?" she asked after seeing the package that the girl was holding

“The box at the top is blueberry cheesecake ice cream!” she said happily “I know you really like blueberry cheesecake and ice cream, so I made them. You have to try it!”

"Is that so? Thank you very much, Ana,” she said sincerely.

Ariel immediately took out some money and put it on the counter even though she knew Diana would be angry when she found out that she paid. She immediately said goodbye and went to her car after that, she had to rest a lot to prepare for another fuss from the Cami family tomorrow morning. Or maybe, tonight?

She don’t know, what is clear from now on that she will face them bravely.

No one should dare to vary with her.

She got into her car and put her favorite cake in the seat next to her. After fastening her seat belt, she started the car. Every now and then she glanced in the rearview mirror and something made her realize. The Lexus behind her, isn't that the car she saw this morning when she just got out of her manor?

Ariel's was deep in thought, thinking about who had followed her this far. But she has no clue — she doesn't have any. Her original goal was to go home, but right now she wanted to play a little. Walking around New York in the late afternoon isn't such a bad thing, is it?

She smiled viciously and began to carry out her evil plan.

Then, let's play.

She don't care whoever they you are — most importantly she will always win.

She play to win.
