You bad girl” she giggles pointing a finger at me“No I don’t” I frown “Did you skip all the other parts I said?” I raise a brow at her standing in front of her with two purses“His beautiful aura and Money are enough for me to ignore that” she

Isabella POVThe 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.“And Maria called me up and told me her

“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

DOMINIC POV The ride back home is long and the sky darkens as we drive into the mansion. “Sir, Mrs Bella” her driver approached me with concern on his face but I stop him my eyes flaring with anger, I push the door open the reveal the house lit up with low lightning. The maids are closed for the day and the house seems empty but I know she’s home. Ready to throw my anger at her, I march up the stairs, pushing the bedroom door open but find the room empty. Panic sets in immediately, but blindsided by my anger I walk towards the office, pushing the door open but it’s empty. “Isabella!!” I yell out, my heart pounding in my chest in a panic, I walk down the stairs when I hear the sound of someone crying. My feet slow down, my ears filling with more sounds of sniffling, and my eyes move to the sliding door under the stairs leading to the pool. The door is open and right at the edge of the pool is Isabella, her feet inside the water, the blue lighting from the pool reflecting ba

DOMINIC POV “Set up a meeting with the shareholders this month and clear my schedule for the weekends, I will no longer be working through the weekends,” I say my voice deep and stern as I think through my decision. With Isabella’s pregnancy and the recent threats, I need to work from home more, I need to pay more attention to her and maybe try and fix our relationship, the longing looks, the anger, the ignoring game, it needs to stop with the introduction of our child into the world. I sigh heavily, my mind still on the threats, I think back to what my sisters said, although they denied all claims, all the evidence points to them. The times we received letters in the house were always after a public gathering or at a public gathering, nobody but my family could wage such a heavy war on me or Isabella, nobody dared to, I did ask around but there was denial from everyone. I sigh turning to the lump of documents on my table, and my eyes moves to my phone, I was getting updates

ISABELLA POV“Look what the cat dragged in, Home-wrecker” Grace mutters with a sly smile on her face.I roll my eyes, “Maybe you should go somewhere else Grace, the store is wide enough, let me be” I turn my eyes away from her turning back to the racks of clothing.“I can’t leave, I was here first, it was the same thing for Dominic’s life but here you are” She rolls her eyes turning to Rachel, “What are you doing here with this bitch anyway?”“Don’t call her that” Rachel mutters turning her eyes away from her, again trying to avoid any confrontation that would lead to us being found out.“Can you get out please Grace, we don’t have the time for your stupid drama, call up Dominic or something, and then he can cater to your needs” I spit the words out in anger but my voice cracks in sadness, again, if Dominic had some self-respect or some respect for me, he would keep his mistress on a leash but he gave her everything she desired.She was the original, I am only a copy, a trophy wife.
Becoming Mrs Deluca Chapter Hundred Twenty Seven
ISABELLA POVThe car comes to a stop in front of a rusty apartment complex, I share a look with Rachel.“With the amount of money our family has, it’s easy to fall in love with the idea of some genuine love” she shrugs, her eyes filled with sadness.“Come on” I place my arm around her shoulder walking into the building, I walk towards the elevator but she stops me.“What?” I turn to her with a frown, confused about why she stopped us, “Don’t tell me you are scared to face him?” I raise a brow at her, about to speak some sense into her.“No, it’s not that” she mutters shyly, looking down at the floor and avoiding my gaze.“Then what?” My fingers raise her face to meet mine, a brow raised in anticipation.She gulps, her eyes moving around the reception, “The elevator is bad, we have to use the stairs” she sighs, her face pink with embarrassment.“Oh your brother will kill this boy” I shake my head with a sigh, so not only did he get her pregnant and abandon her, but he doesn’t have the

ISABELLA POV“It’s true!!” She exclaims eyes wide with a mix of fear and anxiety, “The paint stained me in the first place and that’s why I had to change” She gulps, her eyes darting to me slightly before returning back to Madam DeLuca “But that looks like blood” Madam DeLuca's eyes flicker nervously between the blood stain and my tainted dress.“I’m fine, I am really” I reassure her with a nod, trying to act as calm as I can, quite the opposite of what I feel, quickly turning to Dominic to diffuse the situation, “You should go, I will be home soon” my fingers hold his in my grasp, our eyes meeting with each other, charged with an intensity I never thought he would feel towards me. But I guess the baby changes everything.He heaves a heavy sigh, his eyes scanning me one last time, his jaw clenched in frustration, “Fine I will go. But you have to be back soon, and a driver will pick you up, it’s not safe for you to drive” he says with a dismissive tone but filled with underlying conce

ISABELLA POV“Bella?” What are you doing here? He calls out and I turn to him, acting in shock as I pull out the earphones.“Well, what are you doing in Rachel’s bedroom in the middle of the day?” Madame DeLuca says her eyes trained on me but slightly moves to Rachel who has pulled out her earphones also.Francesca's frill voice surprised the silence “Will somebody say something? Anything?” Francesca screeches next to me, her eyes blazing with anticipation, her gaze filled with intensity as she waited for my answer.I hesitated, my voice faltering as I struggled to find an answer for them, “Well, I came here to “ I pause gulping my nervousness down, I turn to Rachel, her eyes filled with an expectant gaze, looking at me in anticipation to solve this issue for us. “Rachel needed help with some financial questions regarding the accounts” The lie rolls of my tongue smoothly, but my heart racing hoping they don’t catch in on us.“You know I’m not done with school yet, so I was confused” R

ISABELLA POV “Pregnant for real?” I raise a brow at her, “That is impossible, I can’t stand Dominic and vice versa, we have not even been on the same bed for ages now” I sigh leaning back on the couch Knock….knock. “Mam, the spa ladies are done setting up, they expect you outside soon” Madam Thelma’s voice echoes from behind the door. “I will be right down!!” I yell back, as her footsteps retract. “So what are we going to do now? You either tell Dominic the truth now and save yourself the drama or keep up with this lie and face the consequences later” Bianca sighs plopping down on the couch right next to me. I sigh when I hear my phone ding in my robe. “I think I’m bleeding, or losing the baby,” I read out the message from Rachel, my heart drums in my chest and I stand up immediately “What? What’s wrong?” Bianca raises a brow at me as I rush into the closet pulling out a dress. “It’s Rachel, something is happening, I have to get to her,” I say my voice filled with tension, fe

ISABELLA POV “My sisters,” he says simply leaning on the door I frown, “Your sisters? That is impossible, they wouldn’t send men to kill their own friend at their own party” I step out of the tub and he is quick to come and help me, shocking me. “I’m fine, I can do it myself” I distance myself from him. What’s the use of accepting his fake kindness due to some pregnancy that doesn’t exist, as soon as we reveal the truth, it will all end, and we can go back to being roommates, pretending to the world that we are in love. “Well I think it’s them, I confronted them earlier this morning and they acted quite suspicious, especially Rachel” he shrugs moving back to the doorway I roll my eyes at that, they are probably more worried he would find out about their nasty fake pregnancy plan they had with Grace and of course, Rachel would be nervous due to her being the pregnant one. “I still think you should investigate further, I don’t think they would go this far to just hurt me” “You

ISABELLA POV The morning sun blinds me immediately my eyes pull open, the main door cracks open and Thelma walks in with a tray in her hand. “Thelma” I mutter a slight frown on my face, my eyes move around the room not sensing Dominic, “Where is Dominic?” I ask as she walks to my bedside with the tea, “And when did you start serving me tea so early in the morning?” I frown at her Her smile is bright and wide, filled with a tease, “Mr Dominic told me about your condition, congratulations mam” she smiles widely, grabbing my feet and helping me into my slippers “Woah, is that why I’m getting all this special treatment?” I laugh, my eyes refusing to meet hers and conform to this lie Rachel and I have started. “Drink this, it will help with the morning sickness” She passes me the tea glass, the smell of ginger filtering into my nose. I thank her, drinking as much as I can and playing into the facade. “Do you know when Dominic will be back?” I frown I am sure he is still angry over
