Seducing My Heartless Husband

At the end of the day, the two families had already come to an agreement. My mmr Santos approved of Dimitri as his son-in-law.

He knew that the boy would treat his princess like a Queen.

Patricia being the worrisome mother she was, she was afraid that her daughter was being forced to a relationship she was not ready about so after the family left, she went to talk to her daughter.

Knocking on Martina’s door, she twisted the doorknob before making her way Inside.

” Mom, what are you doing here at this time?” Martina asked, moving to kiss her mother’s cheeks.

She had deep love and respect for this woman who single handedly raised her, making her not feel any less for lacking a father figure in her life.

Her mother made sure to act the mother and father part altogether in her life and for that, she couldn’t be any grateful.

” Am I not allowed to visit my daughter’s room anymore?” Patricia asked her daughter, her eyes softening with love and affection.

” Of Course you can, mother. Do you even need to ask?” Martina countered.

She could already tell the reason behind her mother’s late visit. Her heart warmed at the thought.

” It’s just that Dad will be lonely if you stay out for long.” Martina teased, earning a glare from her mother.

” Your father can bear a few minutes alone but now, I want to talk to my daughter.” Patricia said Seriously flopping herself on Martina’s bed before patting the space next to her.

Martina being the baby she was, sprawled herself on the bed, her head resting on her mother’s lap who started threading her soft locks.

” What is it Mom? What do you want to talk about?” Martina asked, albeit with caution.

” I want us to talk about everything happening,” her mother started, taking a long pause.

” Are you happy dear?” Her mother’s question confused her.

” What do you mean by that?”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

” I mean with our new life. Coming back here, finding your sister and reuniting with your father. How do you feel about that?” She explained.

Martina let out a heavy sigh and for a minute, silence reigned in the room.

” Honestly, I am happy that I finally reunited with my sister and father. Not only for myself but for you too. I could see that you longed to find my sister and even though you never voiced out, I knew you always wanted to come back here not only for Marina but for dad’s sake. I can see how happy you are with them and although this is something new to us, it’s what I want.”

Her answer was honest and from the heart. Ever since she learnt that she wasn’t her only mother’s daughter, she started observing her mother closely.

She knew that her mother longed to be back home and that’s why she did everything in her power to find her sister.

” I’m glad to hear that. What about the other issue?” Her mother probed.

” What other issue mother?” Martina feigned ignorance despite understanding her mother’s question.

” About that fine Young man. What do you think about him?” She asked.

She really wanted to know her daughter’s opinion about the guy chosen for her.

The man had confessed into loving her daughter but she needed to hear from get daughter what she thought about the whole engagement thing.

” The decision has been made mother, it doesn’t matter what I think?” Martina shrugged.

Her father had finalised everything with that hopeless man and his family.

Her father said that he could rest assured that she would be in good hands.

She trusted her father. It’s not like she was in love with some other guy.

She might as well settle with her father’s choice.

” No honey, don’t say that. If you don’t like him, just tell me. I’ll not allow my precious baby to be forced to do anything she doesn’t want. I’ll do anything in my power to cancel the engagement.” Her mother’s sweet and caring voice made her feel like her heart was being tickled with feathers.

It warmed her heart.

” It’s fine with me Mom. It’s not like I have a better candidate in mind. I am not getting young anymore and he seems like a good man. I will trust my father’s choice and marry him when the time comes.” Martina replied with a smile.

” Are you sure baby? I don’t want you throwing away the chances of falling in love and, who said you are getting old?” Her mother scolded.

” Mom, not everybody is as Lucky as you were to fall in love. I think feelings can be cultivated with time. Besides, don’t you want to see grandchildren running around you and calling you grandmother?” Martina asked and her mother let out a hearty laughter.

” I am glad you are already thinking about that because that was supposed to be my next question.” Patricia confessed, her voice playful.

After bidding her daughter goodnight, Patricia left the room, leaving Martina all to her thoughts.

She recalled the conversation she had with Dimitri when she was showing him around the house.

He had not hidden his intentions of making her his wife.

” I am not playing around or making jokes out of my intentions to you. I knew you were the one for me the moment I laid my eyes on you. I don’t need you to say yes, just give me a chance to prove myself to you.”

After listening to him and much contemplation, she made the decision.

” If you are sure about your feelings then I will give you a chance. Use it wisely because I don’t offer second chances.” She had told him and the smile that broke on his lips threatened her to smile back but she held it in.

She just hoped she didn’t make a mistake in giving the guy a chance to Court her.

If things worked for them, she would accept his marriage proposal.

She wasn’t getting young anymore nor did she want to worry her parents.

They won’t say it to their faces but with their age, their parents had started worrying about their marriage.

With Marina engaged, she could not be left behind now, could she?
