Morning at the table
The atmosphere was tense, and the reason was Jonathan's delay and not coming off, forcing them to wait
Isabella was clearly confused by Rudolph's eyes watching her, while David was frowning, he was the first to go out of his room to join his arms to his chest, waiting for the rest ,,,
Another seconds passed for Jonathan to enter quietly and vaguely as evidence that he was going to do something
Indeed, after they finished their food, he commanded them to move his hand to wait, to come back in his seat in a controlled manner and speak to Isabella in a strong, confident tone.
I have decided to marry you to Rudolph.
Shock for all three
It is true that Rudolph had no news of this until now
Despite that, his secrets loosened and his eyes radiated with joy
This step from his father will bring him closer to Isabella as he wants, and it will save him a lot, so that he stare at her steadfastly waiting for her response.
Of course his father knows that he will not object because he wants it so badly, so he did not even take his opinion, and if he did, he would give him his warm approval immediately.
David was in contrast to Rudolph, the color had left his face and anger took over every cell of his body
Isabella looked to her uncle to realize that he was encouraging her to agree. She understood that this decision was nothing but a plan by Jonathan to banish David from her, but what did Rudolph think of such a matter ?! She can later clarify that decision to him so that he does not think that the matter is real, and her concern now is to get rid of David in any way ,,,
Rudolph is much easier to handle than yell at stubborn David, to shudder firmly
"I agree to whatever you want, uncle."
Jonathan smiled comfortably and turned his eyes to Rudolph who smiled happily
"You are the best Jonathan in the world."
Jonathan laughs at his son's apparent joy, gestures to them together, and then talks with amusement
"I regret to say that you have to take her to university every day."
And she will never find a better driver than me on earth.
Rudolph struck up at his father, then twisted his fingers through Jonathan's hair to remove his hand in annoyance, so Rudolph licked him up on it, then he turned around the table to stop Isabella and crossed their fingers together, so she was disturbed by his over enthusiasm.
Let them go together, leaving Jonathan with a volcano that was ignored and now on the verge of erupting
"I can't believe you're doing this to me"
"I have seen with your own eyes the happiness of Rudolph, you should feel happy for them too."
“Happiness ?? and damn, how did your heart obey you?
Then what happiness are you talking about !? You destroy me
I'm going crazy here, Rudolph, who you're trying to please at my expense, is the same one who rebelled against you and refused to work for the company while I was like an obedient puppy.
He does whatever he wants while I tread according to your instructions. I am the one who always stood with you while he ran away from you.
And what did I get in the end ??
Leave me, and instead of helping me, I give her to another man who is my brother
I'm in hell here because of you
Do not forget that you are talking to your dad. David, I warn you.
It is all up to me in the end, she is my niece and I am responsible for her, and I know very well where is her interest
Give up your selfishness, because you are the eldest and you have to be more responsible and understanding, in the end, one of you had to sacrifice and compromise for the sake of the other.
And why should I sacrifice?
Why should I always be the responsible and understanding person?
Why should I obey you every time?
Why do I have to give up my happiness for my younger brother?
Why the hell ?! ''
"Rudolph fits her better than you
Why don't you understand and see things logically?
You are a bad memory in her mind that drives her to ruin and madness
Just see what happened!
She was in a stable condition before your reckless intervention but you caused her arm to break, collapse and worsen
How long will I wait until I stop you?
Is it after you killed her or pushed her to commit suicide because of your stubbornness and your constant screaming?
Yesterday you were trying to manipulate her mind without shame and without thinking about the consequences ,,,
All she thinks about is her possession, even if the way to do that is to destroy her mind and lock her inside those suspicious thoughts, even if she makes her completely crazy.
Do you want me to stand still while you return the ball and destroy it more than before?
Do you want me to wait until you commit suicide because of your own insanity !?
What is the fault of the poor girl?
Want to impose yourself on her and she can't stand you?
To tie it to the ropes of your control in order to endure your brutal intentions
What is her fault for getting involved with a cruel and selfish man like you?
What is her fault for enduring your ego and bad temper while suffering enough?
She will hate you more and more, you do not have the right to look forward to a slight chance with her, all you have the right to is to hope for forgiveness, to forgive her for what you did to her in the past
What a shameless person! Above that, you dare to forcibly throw yourself at her, knowing her condition and her weakness.
David stepped back and his eyes radiated with pain from his father's screaming words that had ruthlessly burned his heart, so why did he just have to be mean with her?
With the only woman that he loved with the passing of days with all his heart?
How was he thinking?
Is this the end? Did he lose it forever? Did he lose it from his hands? Is Isabella really going to belong to another man? Wife of another man?
He raised his face to his father in a loss before turning away
Jonathan sloppily threw his body on a bench, tipping his head back, shutting his eyes in despair
He had to, he had to face him and remind him of the truth, even if it was harsh ,,,
In the evening Jonathan was sitting in the garden for Rudolph to kiss him
"How are you, little boy?"
Jonathan amusedly asked to grumble Rudolph
"Really, dad!"
"What 's your?"
Rudolph sat with frowning forehead to speak with distress
“I want this marriage, and I always wanted to
But Isabella does not seem to agree. "
His father got up and sat in front of him to place his hand on the other's knee, tenderly asking
And when she assumes that when she has given her consent in front of us in the morning?
"She told me before that she adores another man who always helps her and does not abandon her, and whenever I remember this it makes me very angry."
His father laughed spontaneously, and Rudolph looked at him with annoyance
"And where is that guy, smart guy?"
Rudolph's eyes widened
Was she lying to me to get away from her?
Of course, son, I know Isabella very well since she was born, and her life was in complete isolation. Perhaps she said that because of her fear or that this person was just a figment of her imagination.
I was able to deceive you. "
A slow smile appeared on Rudolph's face as he felt comfortable, overwhelmed by his sudden realization of the matter.
Those around her are very limited and already known to him, that little girl defeated him and left him burning with the flames of jealousy
"Don't be hard on her, Rudolph, she is very thin and has endured enough ............."
"Don't worry, Dad, I can't hurt her. I intend to inflict my love on her like I did, and I realize that I have to be patient until I win her heart completely and for her psyche to improve."
His father smiled cheerfully at him, then slapped his shoulder with pride and admiration
"I was successful with this decision, you are a good man, Rudolph, and I hope that you will achieve everything you wish and crown your life with love and happiness."
He walked with his father inside until he drove him to his room, then he headed towards his ward, but he changed his direction and his feet took him until he stood in front of Isabella's room
The light from inside let him know that she was still awake, gently knocking on her door
He heard her light footsteps rustling
She opened to him, and as soon as she saw him, she smiled at him lightly to invite him in
"I wanted to talk to you, so I couldn't do that in the morning."
She said that, only to look at her with interest
Already confused, she sits down and talks, trying to control her turbulent heartbeat
"I know that my uncle's decision in the morning was surprising, and that you did not want this marriage, I just wanted to claim our approval for a while and then finish it quietly."
She was talking intermittently and shyly, smiling his lips as he walked her game
"I have not claimed and will not claim anything because I want this marriage."
I calmly tell her to look at him with no understanding to lean on her seat and put both hands on either side of the seat to contract inward.
"I adore you, Isabella, I adore you since I was 12 years old, you are the love of my childhood and still are. I always imagined myself with you, I could not imagine my life with others."
