Ryan’s P.O.V. I was hopeful and happy to meet Bella’s mother but that lady knew when to hit the right button at right time. I tried to be comfortable around her but she was really something. How could she have a daughter like Bella? I meant, both of them were poles apart by personality, by looks and even by nature. Nothing was the same between them. Every time when she opened her mouth, I felt that Bella tried hard to control her tears. It was pure torture for me. Okay, I did want Bella for me and her mom was, I didn’t know how convinced that I am better than Axel for her. She only knew one thing about Axel that he is Bella’s colleague and held a higher position in her company. I didn’t understand why she was determined to match Bella with me. I was sure that as soon
