All Chapters of The Mafia's Forbidden Bride: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Chapter Twenty-TwoIsla's POVI pretended to be asleep, listening intently to Damian rubbing my stomach gently, while talking to the baby. It was a little weird for him to be in my room, but it was also comforting that he cared about this child. Damian was promising to be a good father to him or her. He promised to give our child all the love in the world, as they deserve it. It was something he never got as a child. One would think the baby could see him, but I was sure it could hear him as he went on about how they will be his pampered prince, or princess. He didn't care about the gender, as long as he got to hold them. The more I listened, the more I questioned my previous feelings about his seeming plan to terminate my pregnancy. Could it be that I was making wrong assumptions about his intentions all this time? The coincidences were just overwhelming. I was torn at this point. For a moment, I zoned out on his words, lost in my own thoughts. Damian wasn't done talking yet. He was

Chapter Twenty-FourIsla's POVHanging out with Lucia has been a delight. Even though she had a chaotic presence, I still look forward to hanging out with her. She knew how to bring out the happiness in people. I don't know why Damian had been hiding his sister, but I am glad that he finally introduced us. This has been the best thing he had ever done ever since my amnesia. I was no longer bored. I still had juice, but she was constantly busy these days. I had no idea why her workload seemed to have increased overnight. Maybe it had something to do with Damian. He seems a little bit possessive, always making sure whenever his sister was around, he would be constantly sticking around himself. He never left me alone with her.I have been curious as to why he does that. Lucia doesn't bite. She doesn't have a nasty attitude. She is just a happy go-lucky chaotic nineteen year old. I don't know why Damian was so worried of what his sister might do to me. Perhaps there was something else he

Chapter Twenty-SixDamian's POV Every piece of my puzzle was slowly falling apart. I never expected that Isla would be so smart. I was playing a calculated game of chess but each move I made, Isla was always there to knock down my pawn. I underestimated her. I thought that with her amnesia she wouldn't be so smart. I barely knew Isla. I was only able to see her a lot of times at different functions held by Alessandro De Luca. I knew she was beautiful, and people often talked about how smart she was. I just didn't believe any of it. I had always thought of it as was one of Alessandro's usual hypes. He always seemed to do that a lot just to bring down other people, but elevate his family.Even though Isla wasn't his daughter, but she was still his ward. How could I forget about making a fake wedding picture? It never occurred to me until Isla asked of it. I just thought that everything was going perfectly. I knew that Lucia coming back, and her constant presence around Isla was a ver

Chapter Twenty-EightIsla's POV No matter how much I looked at it, I couldn't feel any spark. I felt nothing. To me it was just a plain picture, a painting that held no memory. No headaches, no familiar feeling of recognition, no longing, nothing. It felt I was just staring at a painting in an art exhibition with a very terrible artist.The wedding pictures screamed exotic. The wedding journal, even the venue in the background looked as if it cost millions. The jewelry I was wearing could feed an entire orphanage, the heels were looking so expensive to be real. Everything about me that day screamed elegance but the more I stared at it, it looked so fictional. I felt as if I was staring at myself in a drama, and I couldn't even recognize who was standing before me. It was like a different me in the picture and a different me as I stared back at myself— Isla Moreno Russo, wife of Damian Russo.Even when said aloud, the name sounded so foreign in my mouth, as if it wasn't meant to be m

Chapter ThirtyIsla's POVIt's still felt surreal whenever I remembered Damien's words about how our wedding was felt like a fairy tale, but with a hint of drama. I love that he was honest with me. I was expecting him to tell me a lie about that day being perfect, melodious music sounding everywhere, me looking breathtaking, and having our honeymoon in one of the most expensive places, and other bullshits. I didn't want him to tell me something straight out of a novel and Damien did not do that. I appreciated the honest. I can't remember going to a wedding what, but from what I have heard, I can tell that it was the happiest day of my life. Maybe I can finally stop having doubts about my married life with him. All I just needed to know was if I was unfaithful to him, and who did I cheat on him with. Was it Mateo De Luca? Or could it be Raymond? Damien always emphasizes how close I am with his right hand man, and I have seen the way he glares at Raymond whenever he came close to me
