His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 306

"So Isla you don't have to belittle yourself or even bring your own self down. Every family has its skeletons in the closet. I love you, because of your kindness and sincerity. No one could replace you. Do you understand me?" Aron said firmly yet gently while holding Isla by her shoulders. "Yes, I understand now, " responded Isla, finally enlightened.

"Aron, no matter what happens in the future, I know that you can handle it."

"Yes, it seems that you have come round now, " said Aron, letting out a sigh of relief. He grinned, feeling relieved seeing that Isla is no longer emotionally crippled. As soon as he sent Isla back, Aron began to negotiate with his grandparents their meeting with Isla's parents.

"Have you made up your mind? You should be clear about everything this time, " said Joanna. Though Joanna and Mike did not show any disapproval, they reminded Aron to think twice before making such a big decision. After all marriage is one of the most important events in a man's life. Aron was no exception. That big wedding fiasco with Becky had left a very bad taste in the mouth for Joanna and Mike so much that the fear still lingered.

"Yes, I have thought about it for a long time. I know what I am doing." Aron replied to reassure his grandparents. "I choose Isla to be the one I will spend the rest of my life with. It feels right this time. I know that this is the best decision I have made my entire life. That's why I am going to need your support.

"Very well. If that is where you stand then we will be 100% behind you on this. Like we always say, you are a grown man now and you are entitled to your own decisions. We trust your sound judgement. We have interfered with your love life before, and it brought you nothing but pain and agony. It almost killed your grandmother! But..." Saying this, Mike furrowed his eye brows and paused.

"What, grandpa?" Aron knew that when this happened, his grandparents were about to say something really important.

"Aron, your uncle is coming back soon, " said Joanna. Joanna looked at Aron worryingly and continued, "Aron, you have been living with us for so many years and your uncle is not happy about it. He thinks that we have paid too much attention to you or even spoiled you. That is why he doesn't want you to change your surname to your mother's. I am afraid that he'd give you trouble. So you should watch out."

"Yes, he is your uncle but he is also my son. Your grandma and I are no longer young. We are too old to poke our noses into your uncle's business. Anyway, you have to take care of yourself. I am worried about you, but we could do nothing to help you. The time will come when your grandpa and I will also have to leave this earth. Aron, you must understand us." Joanna and Mike couldn't help but feel sad that they were helpless in this situation. They should be living a peaceful and happy retirement. Instead, their son married a vicious woman who was ready to give them hell. Had they foreseen that, they would have stopped their son from getting married to that woman. But it was too late.

Nothing they could do can turn back the time.. Nor could they do anything to fix the situation.

"Don't worry, grandma. I will take care of it. I know how to handle it." Though Aron was as helpless as they were when he heard this news, he had to accept it and figure out a way to deal with it.

He knew very well that he was about to face much trouble in the days to come.

"But if he is going to give you a hard time, you have to tell us. We won't just stand by and do nothing." Joanna let out a sigh and then went on, "It is my fault. All our children married the wrong person. You mother shouldn't have married Simon and I didn't expect that he would betray her. Your uncle also married a vicious woman who has caused a turmoil within the family."

"Grandma, that's not your fault. You shouldn't blame yourself for that." Aron put his arms around his grandmother to comfort her. "It is late, grandma. You should go to bed and have a good rest. I will take care of all this. Don't worry."

"I will. Thank you my dear boy." When his grandparents went back to their bedroom, Aron went to his study room to resume and catch up on unfinished work. It was time for him to deal with it since he had be gone for quite a while.

Aron would not be intimidated by his uncle who was coming back soon. He didn't want to get his grandparents to be caught in the middle of another major family drama. They were now too old to go through such torment.

The next day morning, when Autumn got up, she found Charles had already gone to work. He had been busy with his work these days and always went off in the early morning, not returning till late at night. Even if he came back early, he would only keep himself inside his office to work some more. They hadn't had a good conversation in a long time.
