The Abandoned one

Yesss 😈 Let's get wicked.

The Abandoned Heiress Is Back, Aria makes her first public move — but in classic Aria fashion, she doesn't just go for drama…

> She goes for impact.

She goes for chaos.

And unknowingly…

She wakes the monster.

Buckle up. This chapter burns.

Two weeks later.

London.

The World Economic Summit.

The stage was set.

Politicians. CEOs. Bankers. Media empires. The exact kind of people Aria Lin used to beg for crumbs from — now they sat in rows, waiting for the opening speaker.

The screen flashed white.

Then black.

Then red.

A voice rang out across all frequencies — news stations, internet streams, satellites, even hacked military channels.

"My name is Aria Lin.

Daughter of the late Mei Lin.

Heir of the Rothschild bloodline.

Betrayed by my family. Raised in lies. Forged in silence.

And today — I return your power to the people."

---

> SURPRISE #1: Aria hijacks every major global network at once.

She revealed names transaction records. Offshore accounts,assassination contracts.

Then she dropped the Rothschild documents.

Evidence of black-market experiments on orphan children — a program codenamed Helix Protocol.

She ended the message with one line:

You wanted a perfect world.

I'm the imperfect storm."

Screen went black.

> Panic erupted.

---

Inside a military facility in Germany, the lights blinked red.

A cell opened.

Alarms blared.

And out stepped a boy — no older than 19. Jet-black hair. Cold gray eyes.

> Subject 11B. Ares.

He watched the chaos unfolding on the screens.

Aria's face filled every monitor.

He tilted his head.

She's not supposed to speak, he whispered.

She's not supposed to fight.

The handler behind him nodded nervously.

She's compromised the whole network.

Ares didn't blink.

Then I'll shut her down.

Back in Aria's temporary base, Liam slammed the laptop shut.

You just declared war.

Aria nodded, calm.

That was the point.

Vivian Tao entered with a printout.

We traced the Helix Protocol to over 11 countries,she said and someone accessed the deep-core surveillance server the moment you broadcasted.

Let me guess,Aria said. "Augustin?

Vivian shook her head.

No,Worse.

She handed Aria the screen.

Aria read the name.

Her face changed.

Ares Rothschild.

Later that night, she stood on a cliffside, alone, watching the ocean crash against the rocks.

Liam walked up beside her.

You sure you're ready for what's coming?he asked.

Aria turned to him, wind slicing through her hair.

No,she said but I'm sure they're not ready for me.

---

In the shadows behind them, a figure watched.

No pulse detected.

No signal trace.

Just a cold voice in his mind:

Find her,study her and beak her.

And if he couldn't?

> Kill her.

❓ Reader Questions:

1. Did Aria go too far exposing everything at once?

2. Will Ares try to reason with her… or is he beyond saving?

3. Can Liam protect Aria — or will he become her weakness?

4. What should Aria's next move be — disappear again or go fully public?
