His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 184

Isla, all of sudden, wanted to attend the wedding and nodded in approval. With a forced smile she promised Aron, "Well, as you wish, I will be her bridesmaid."

"My dear daughter...." Isla's Mum pulled her daughter aside and said with a sad voice "My silly daughter, if it is against your will, you do not need to undertake the bridesmaid. Nobody has the right to force you to do it."

"Mum, I am Ok." Isla forced a smile. She wanted to witness the wedding ceremony because Aron wished it, "Mum and Dad, we had better leave now. They need to discuss the wedding and our presence is no longer required."

"Well, let us go." With a heavy heart Isla's Mum agreed.

Isla's Dad, overwhelmed with anger rushed towards Aron and gave him a furious slap. Aron was caught off guard and felt the sting on his face. Isla's Dad showed everyone what a father means to a daughter who had been wronged.

"Uncle, how could you do this?"

"My elder brother, you are going too far!" Mandy and Becky united their voices in protest. Isla's Dad gave Aron a decided slap with such power and might that it terrified Becky.

"Are you Ok?" Becky rushed to Aron's aid.

"I'm alright!" Aron thought he deserved such a slap from Isla's Dad and did not object.

"My elder brother, there is no justification for you to slap my son-in-law." Mandy protested.

"I would slap him, even if he was the most influential and powerful man in the world." Isla's Dad said with determination. "Aron, since my daughter promised to be the bridesmaid at your wedding, I have to respect her decision. The main purpose of my visit today is to tell you of my confidence in my daughter, no matter how ill you think of her. I wish to invite police for a thorough investigation of why Joanna's life lays in balance now!"

His words rendered Mandy and Becky paralyzed with fear.

"My elder brother, as I have told you, this matter has been dismissed by Aron's family. There is no necessity in bringing this up again." Mandy said as she looked at her elder brother in embarrassment.

"My daughter's clean conscience defies any assusation!" Isla's Dad cast a cold glance at her sister and said: "Mandy, I have seen through your tricks. I tried every means to support your schooling. What is more, my wife had suffered a miscarriage because of that. Despite everything, I expected nothing back from you. But now, we have decided to sever all family ties with you after the wedding."

"My elder brother, how could you utter such nonsense...." Mandy looked at his elder brother in dismay. Ignoring Mandy, Isla's Dad went to Mike and said: "Sir, I am sorry for the condition that your wife is in right now. But it has nothing to do with my daughter. If you wish to press this matter, we are ready to cooperate."

Isla's Dad might be a rough man from the countryside, but he was a man of principle. He brought his daughter to Mike and told her, "My dear daughter, apologize to this old gentleman."
