Isabella POV

The next day is a Saturday and I finally feel free, no meetings or parties with Dominic.

My dreams are bashed by my mom pushing my door open, “Dress up Isabella we have to go flower shopping for the wedding” she instructs shutting the door close and walking away swinging her phone from ear to ear.

I almost want to throw a tantrum but I stop myself, finding a simple yellow dress and sandals, placing my blonde wavy hair in a rough bun, I don’t bother with makeup and I head downstairs.

My mom is quick to lead me out of the house, “Maaaa breakfast” I whine turning to the car

“Should have thought about that waking up by 10 am” she tuts sliding into the seat next to me and closing the door.

“Rupert let’s drop by a restaurant for breakfast first and then we go to the flower shop” she sends me a side smirk while I celebrate happily.

We have breakfast in some outdoor restaurant while my mom tells me all the gossip surrounding my Engagement.

    “How about we leave the flower picking to you and my mom,” I say in the silent room, “I mean you are the expert” I send her a smile hoping to crack her Cold Demure.She turns to me with an angry and intimidating stare directed straight at me which makes me shake in my shoes, “if you are going to be the future Mrs Deluca and retire me, flowers are something you need to know at the palm of your hands” she almost screams “I knew you were lazy but not to the extent of asking me to pick out your wedding flowers”“I mean how is she going to plan all the charity balls and events for the family?” she laughs with the attendant “I mean your hilbilly mom should have taught you better” she laughs again I watch my mom's eyes cover with a sheen of tears, her head shinning with sweat even though the room is cold, I mean I could stand in a boardroom and face a load of men and argue about numbers but I can't stand up to a woman who is going to be my mother in law because she comes from the wealthiest

    A car is sent by Dominic to pick me up and I'm led into the restaurant, the lights are dim and there's no one but the waiters in the restaurant.This immediately makes me halt in my steps, “what is this man planning?” “Nothing out of the normal for a couple about to wed” his voice filters through the room, walking towards me“I just wanted to talk, there’s no need to pretend to like me Mr Deluca” I reply folding my hands across my chest.“Then let’s talk.” His hands cup my waist pulling me towards the table, a single rose flower on the table.“You know, I don’t like roses” I pick up the rose, taking a seat opposite him, “Maybe Grace liked them,” I say my voice filled with a hint of jealousy.His lips lift in a smirk, “Tell me what you like Isabella, and I’ll hand it to you on a platter of Gold” “Your money doesn’t impress me either” I blink at him turning my eyes around the room, The waiter approach us serving champagne “But here you are, about to marry me for it, you are never rea

    Dominic’s POVShe smiles at me widely, and I already know it’s being powered by the alcohol, her movements are slow and funny.The waiter walks towards us with our food and the light in her eyes shines brightly in the dark room, she could almost convince me to start falling in love with her.I shake my head, removing that thought from my head, it’s a contract marriage, it’s one of convenience, I can’t go around falling in love with her when Grace still occupies my thoughts.“The food is divine, I don’t know if it’s just me or the alcohol,” she says, giggling loudly after, a huge proud grin on her face.“Is this what you do all the time? Go to restaurants, get drunk, and go back home?” I raise a brow at her“And is carrying a stick up your ass 24/7 what you do all the time?” She says without wasting a beat“Good one” I roll my eyes, finishing up my dinner, “For someone drunk, I can see your brain is still functioning at 100%” I say clearing my plate and signaling for the waiter for des
