Chapter 172

"Common Isabella, his mom got arrested today, I'm sure he will be so busy trying to fix the reason she was arrested. This is a murder case.

I promise I will talk to him about the marriage, and trust me, he won't say no. You just have to keep doing your part and keep showing him how much you love him" Edward said to his daughter who had a sad look on her face. She sighed and nodded in response before walking away.

Edward stared at his little princess as she walked away, she reminded him so much of his wife, Mirabel.

Isabella is the copy and paste of her mother.

He had sworn to make her happy, so he would do anything in his power to make sure Isabella and Brandon get married.

It was evening, and Hannah had just woken up. She realized she had been sleeping for a long time and she hadn't even heard from her kids.

She missed her kids already. She brought out her phone and called them on video call. The kids were happy to see her face and they miss her already.

Just then the door flung open revealing Brandon.

"I'll call you guys later," Hannah said as she ended the call and dropped the phone on the bed.

She stared at Brandon and looked away. She stood up from the bed, packed her hair in a messy bun and moved towards her wardrobe and brought out an hoodie.

She was trying her best to avoid Brandon and not talk to him.

"Hey" Brandon muttered but Hannah didn't say a word. He sighed softly.

"I came here before and saw you were asleep," Brandon said and Hannah bit her inner lips. Of course. He would always come inside the room without her permission.

"If it's about the kids, I promise Hannah, they are gonna be fine. I doubled the security at Sandra's house. They would be fine, in a few days all this would be over and I would bring them back home to you" Brandon said and Hannah turned to him. She glanced at him and then nodded in response.

Brandon noticed Hannah was unusually quiet, on a normal day she would argue with him over silly things and now she was quiet, it was unlike her, she obviously missed the kids.

He misses them too, but he's just trying to protect them.

She made to walk past him and leave the room when he held her hands.

She froze for some seconds as she felt strange feelings run through her veins as their hands came in contact. She swallowed into nothing as the man held her hands and stood in front of her.

"I'm sorry for what I did earlier on. For breaking the bottle on the wall even when you were there, I could have hurt you, I'm sorry" he said as he removed the strands of hair that was lying pretty on her face. Hannah looked down, trying to avoid his gaze.

His finger lifted her chin so she was forced to look at his gaze. He kept staring at her eyes like he was searching for something that he had lost.

He stared at her beautiful eyes and felt lost in it for some moments, this was the most beautiful eyes he's ever seen.

Then his eyes moved to her cute pointed nose and then to her red lips which were calling to him.

Hannah on the other hand felt her heartbeat became intense as the man stared at her with love in his eyes.

Whatever she was feeling at that moment was weird, and worst of all, she loved the weird feeling.

He touched her lips with his thumb and she closed her eyes letting whatever she was feeling at that moment wash over her.

She opened her eyes and their eyes locked in a moment of pure anticipation, their lips slowly moving towards each other when she suddenly came back to her right senses.

She moved away from him immediately.

"What do you think you were doing?" Hannah asked with a frown on her face.

"What? You were the one who wanted to kiss me just now" Brandon said and Hannah opened her eyes wide and gritted her teeth.

"That's not true, I would never try to kiss you, you were the one trying to force me into kissing you" Hannah yelled Brandon bit his inner lips trying not to laugh but he just couldn't hold it anymore so he burst into laughter. For the first time today, he had a smile on his face and this woman was the reason he had smile, he felt his heart leap with joy.

The woman in front of him was his source of happiness and she doesn't even know that.

The woman stared at him angrily wondering what was funny.

"Stop laughing," Hannah said as she stared at Brandon and hit him slightly on his chest, she would admit he had the most handsome smile in the world.

She could remember when he was angry earlier today and broke the bottle on the wall, she couldn't believe he was the one smiling right now.

She would admit, she loved it when he was happy even though she pretended not to.

"Whatever!" She said and was about to walk out of the room when he held her and pinned her to the wall.

"Brandon stop!" Hannah said and he smiled and touched her face.

They both paused when they heard noises from downstairs.

They glanced at each other and walked out of the room together and went downstairs and to their surprise they saw Wilson sitting comfortably on the couch in the sitting room. Wilson, who had noticed a presence in the room, turned and saw Brandon and Hannah staring at him.

"Hello, Son," Wilson muttered with a smile on his face. Brandon frowned at him.

"How did you get in here? I thought I told the security not to let you in?" Brandon Muttered and Wilson scoffed.

"Seems like you are forgetting I own this Mansion and I hired almost everyone in this house," Wilson said and Brandon tightened his fist as he stared at the man who called himself his father. He felt like ripping his head off at that moment.

"What do you want?" Brandon asked between gritted teeth, Wilson sighed and stood up.

"I was wondering when you were gonna ask me that" he muttered as he placed his hands in his pocket and moved towards Hannah.

But Brandon stood in his way and blocked him from coming closer to his wife.

"Did you get the dress, pretty?" Wilson said with a smile on his face.

It was then it dawn on Hannah, that it was Wilson who sent the dress. TBC
