My Mafia Husband

Bella POV 2

I realized my mistake that day. I tried to become a mother to him again but he just went out of the house finding me annoying. He asked his father to give him our old farm house and he stays there now. I tried to change him by staying there with him, but he simply decided that I won't care about him. My effort was just throwing stones into ocean. He respects us and listens to us. But he does not obey us. Even now, he agreed marrying just to claim his position. 

I know I am selfish thinking about marrying you to him but when I first saw you, I saw all the qualities that he does not have and I thought you would change him. She cried letting all the burden out of her heart. After calming down, she looked determined and said "I will support you if you don't want this marriage. I will make Dom agree to cancel the marriage without effecting anything between our families. But please, before you take decision think about it once more. I can say my son is pretty hard headed but if he once start to love anyone, he will kill or be killed for them. I have a feeling you can make him love you. I never saw my son panicking as I saw yesterday and you were the reason."

I looked at her thinking. I remembered my Decision which I thought will work. I looked at her and said "Grace, I want to give him a chance. I will try to change him. If he changes, then I will be happy with my decision. If he does not then well, at least I gave it a try. I won't be expecting anything in return from him so even if I fail I will feel nothing". I explained her still frowning thinking weather to continue or not. Grace squeezed my hand in assurance with a small smile to go on "But, I don't want to marry him now. For me marriage is a sacred thing which I do not want to happen in this position. I only want to get married with the person I love. But I can stay at his place in a separate bed room for some days and see how it goes". I suggested.

 Grace smiled widely at me "I love you so much Bella. You are so pure and kind-hearted. Thank you so much for giving him this chance. Come on lets tell the big boys on our decision." I stopped her by catching her hand before she left. She raised her eyebrows asking what happened "About telling them, I want you to tell that its your decision. I will let my parents agree to it." I said looking down asking her to take the blame. But she just smiled and said "Oh.. that's it. No problem. You come with me now". She took me to my mom. Asking mom and me to follow her, She took us to study where dad and Dominic are working.

"Can we disurb you for a second?" Grace asked smiling so much sweetly as she entered the room and putting her arms around Dominic and hugging him and kissing him. I quickly turned away not wanting to watch their PDA. Dominic raised his eyebrow sighing and said "You know you can ask me anything, and I will agree with you. You don't need to do this". Grace quickly grinned from eye to eye and said "I have a thought about the marriage. I decided to share it with you guys. We can inform Alex later when he comes home." Dad and Dominic nodded not knowing what she is talking about. "I was thinking on postponing the wedding. A month is too soon and you can see everyone of us is stressed. And I want everything perfect for their wedding.". My dad nodded looking at me as I told yesterday that I was so stressed. I gave him a smile encouraging the ides. He relaxed and looked at Grace nodding. "So when do you think we should conduct the wedding?" Dad asked. "I was thinking two years. I will make the dress hand prepared and decorations." Everyone looked as if she is mad. Even we agreed for 1 year. But why is she saying two years? I thought. "What do you mean two years? Are you kidding me?" Dominic asked. "Is there anything wrong with it. I want my son's wedding to be perfect. Everyone should remember it for so many years". She explained smoothly waving her hands. Uncle and dad looked at her shaking their head. They said that 3 months will be enough for wedding. I was shocked at them not agreeing. After a lot of persuasion from Grace and mom, they finally agreed for one year and I will be living with Alex in his house in a separate room. Now I know why she started the bargain with two year. Very clever full Grace. I shook my head thinking about her and mentally taking notes to ask her ow to get them agree on what we want. 

Next day, since marriage is not anytime soon, mom and dad decided they should leave for Europe. I was very sad and bawling my eyes out. Dominic and Grace came over to take them to airport. I was crying very much hugging my mom and dad. Finally Mom asked Grace to look after me and left. I was still crying on my way home and at some point fell asleep on Grace's lap. She smoothed out my hair letting me hum in sleep. After we reached Alex's place, I got out of the car entering his...oops... our house.

Yesterday, Grace and Dominic told Alex about the marriage and he did not take it good but he agreed at last. I am now on the way to his house and Grace and Dom want to see me settling in. So, they came in with me. As we entered the house, an old lady welcomed us smiling.
