His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 303 Are You Crazy

"Mother, his grandmother has already apologized. She didn't mean to be unkind. Becky said that I

seduced Aron and incited her to go to my office. Her judgement was clouded by Becky's flattery and

made-up stories, " Isla explained eagerly about the unpleasant incident. However, it seemed as if Jina

wasn't listening to her at all. In fact, she didn't believe Isla; she thought Isla was lying.

Aron smiled as he said, "I am sorry for what Isla had to go through because of my grandmother. I

should have told her that I trusted her and supported her. Aunt Jina, you can put a hit out on me or

shout at me if you want. Whatever you want done with me, I will accept it. All I am asking for is your

permission for taking care of Isla from now on."

Aron paused for a fraction of a second and then continued, "My grandmother told me the truth as soon

as she woke up. Becky is a scheming woman. She has apologized to Isla personally the moment she

found out about that. If you're not willing to let that go, I will do whatever you ask of me, "

Said Aron, as he stared at Jina with imploring eyes. Jina furrowed her eyebrows because Aron's polite

attitude had caught her off guard. It was hard to say no to a gentleman like Aron. Jina didn't mind being

his mother-in-law. Her resolution to object to Aron and Isla's relationship began to stagger. However,

the fact that Isla had suffered a lot and had been unhappy all these years made Jina headstrong about

objecting to their union. Aron was the one who abandoned Isla, so he should be the one to make

efforts to win her back.

Jina took a sip of water while she was thinking about how to punish Aron for Isla's hardships.

Before their conversation could continue, the waitress came in to serve the dishes.

As they had the supper, Aron occasionally put some food and soup into Jina's bowls. Jina's dissent

was slowly driven away by Aron's consideration, bit by bit.

When they finished eating, Aron asked gently, "Aunt, would you like some dessert or something else?"

"No, " Jina sighed and said, "I am full. There is no need to waste money. It's not easy for you,

youngsters to earn money." Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

She had already ordered quite a lot of dishes to air her anger at him. Usually she would order just the

right amount of food needed. There was no use in wasting food as well as money.

Hearing Jina's words, Aron turned to John and expressed his regret, "Uncle, I am sorry I haven't been

well in the past few days, so I didn't have a drink with you. When I recover, I will surely meet you for a

drink."

"That's okay, " replied John, smiling. It seemed like he had let go of all the negativity from before.

Men were easy to change their attitude towards a person even just after a drink or a cigarette together.

John seldom spoke when they were having supper, but he kept a watchful eye on Aron. No matter how

aggressive Jina was, he didn't look impatient. The way he endured Jina's treatment showed just how

much he loved Isla.

John felt greatly relieved by Aron's endeavor, so he agreed to give his beloved daughter's hand to Aron

from the bottom of his heart.

He muttered under his breath, 'Since Isla loves Aron, I will allow them to be together.'

"A toast?" Jina stared at John with obvious discontent and said, "Drinking is not good for your health.

Even when you regain your health, make sure to drink as little alcohol as possible."

"Okay." Aron said with a nod.

Jina finally got past all the unpleasant memories after seeing such obedience in Aron, although she

remained a little skeptical.

After careful consideration, Jina made up her mind to test Aron's sincerity.

After taking a sip of water from her cup she asked him, "Have you made up your mind about being with

Isla?"

"Yes!" said Aron firmly, "Aunt Jina, I would like to be Isla's boyfriend and I hope that you will give us

your blessing. Whatever you want me to do, I will do it. I will do as you ask." "

I didn't force you into anything. This is your declaration and I hope that you can keep your promise, "

said Jina with a sneer, "My request is very easy. Have all your property transferred into Isla's name. I

mean your car, your house and your shares in your company. If you do that, I will have no objections

with your relationship."

"What! Mother, are you crazy?" Before Aron could reply, Isla pre-empted him. She cried to her mother,

"Mother, I love him and not his money. Why would you even say something like that? "

Tears of frustration welled up in her eyes. Isla was worried that Aron would misunderstand her motives.

She loved Aron, just the person, not his money.

"Aron, what she said is not true. I don't want any of those!" said Isla, gripping Aron's hand when she

failed to read his eyes. Aron hesitated for a while and then asked, "Isla, I want to have a private talk

with your parents. Could you wait outside for some time?"

"No!" Isla replied with her eyebrows furrowed, "There's nothing more to talk about! Mother, I will be with

Aron whether you agree or not. If you insist on belittling me like this, you will lose me forever. I won't

call you mother anymore."

Isla could feel the tears ready to burst out of her eyes. She was about to storm out of the room when

Aron stopped her. He gave Isla a hard pull, and urged her to stay. Jina replied to Isla unhappily, "You

ungrateful girl! What I've asked for, is for you own good, right?"

"Isla, calm down. Stop acting like a baby!" Aron looked emotionless so it was hard to tell what he was

thinking about. He gave Isla a pat on the shoulder and comforted her. "Give us a minute. It's okay."

"But…" Isla was persuaded by Aron's calmness, even though she was worried that her mother would

make things difficult for them.

"What are you worried about? Am I a man-eating monster?" Jina scolded stiffly, "Aron hasn't refused

my proposal, has he? Why are you so anxious?"

"Isla, you'd better get some air." John came in to mediate between them, "Don't worry. I am here. I will

help persuade your mother."

Aron persevered in a private talk. Isla finally compromised and left them to talk.

Isla's eyes were swelling up, so she went to the bathroom to wash her face and calm down. She wasn't

expecting to run into Autumn. Both of them stood there in amazement. As soon as they got over their

shock, they said in chorus, "What are you doing here?"

Autumn told Isla that she was here to discuss Chris and Sam's wedding with his family. Then she

smiled at Isla and said, "What about you? What are you doing here?"

"I…" Isla opened her mouth to speak, but before she could, the tears from her eyes streamed down her

face. She had a grievance against her mother. She thought to herself, 'Why do Aron and I have to deal

with such things all the time?

Four years ago, Becky came in between us; four years later, my mother is stepping in to keep us apart.'

"What has happened? Why are you crying?" Autumn was surprised to see Isla weeping. She comforted

Isla, but she needed to know what had happened.

Isla didn't restrain her sadness, because Autumn was her best friend. Within a second she was in

Autumn's arms, crying her heart out.

Autumn knew something bad had happened. The important thing right now was to wait until Isla

stopped crying. After Isla stopped weeping and started to calm down, Autumn asked, "Will you tell me

what has happened now?"

Autumn didn't force Isla to give a reply. She led Isla to the hall, seated her on the sofa, and asked a

glass of water for her before she continued, "Why are you so sad? Did Aron do something wrong? Has

he done something to make you unhappy?"

"No…" Isla hesitated for a second as she held the hot, disposable glass. Then she finally made a clean

breast of the details about their meeting and complained, "Autumn, in your opinion, why did my mother

do that? Is she so unhappy about my relationship with Aron? Her behavior … has put me in a difficult

situation with Aron."
