I’m Dedicated To You

At the ancestral mansion of the Hale, every member of the family could be seen sitting down in the sitting room waiting for Bradley and his wife.

“Why are they late,” Kate asked, trying to get under the skin of the already-pissed Emily.

“We are only waiting for just one person and that’s my son, “Emily says glaring at Kate, the husbands of the two women just watching from the sidelines because their wives will soon be at loggerheads.

“Jayden, did you think Bradley’s wife is pretty?” Joanna curiously asked Jayden and that pissed him off.

“I don’t know!” he yelled and everyone in the sitting room looked at him.

“I am sorry I don’t mean to piss you off” Joanna apologized going back to her mother’s side.

“That brat he doesn’t even respect his elders again how can he keep us waiting for him”Grandpa Hale snorted.

“Father doesn’t be angry I am sure it’s all that lady’s fault”Emily quickly blames Georgina and grandma Hale shakes her head at her behavior but the butler enters the room and announces the arrival of Georgina and Bradley.

My hand is already so sweaty after being nervous for a long time and it was already night time when we got there because of the city’s heavy traffic but all my nervousness slipped away when I was faced with the Hale ancestral mansion and it was MAGNIFICENT.

“Let’s go, babe I am sure the family is waiting, “Bradley says and I make a mental note to tour this place before I leave.

“Good evening” Bradley greeted me when he entered the sitting room and I changed my composure immediately after I was faced with Bradley’s family.

“Wow for a girl that isn’t born Noble she sure has good composure,” Kate says scrutinizing Georgina with her eyes .”Yes, mom h e is the best of the best”Jayden says but his mother quickly reprimanded him by glaring at him and Jayden keep quiet.

Everyone in the room kept looking at Georgina without welcoming her in and Georgina even felt more awkward so, she decided to take action on it but Bradley beat her to it.

“This is Georgina HALE my wife,” Bradley says, emphasizing Hale and that makes Emily even angrier.

“Oh my God dear you are here”Emily’s mother walks towards Georgina and when Georgina thought she was going to hug her Emily walked past her and went ahead to hug a lady that just walked in.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“Juliana has been a long time,” Emily says hugging the girl and they both exchange pleasantries. That’s when I know one thing for a fact: my mother-in-law doesn’t like me.

“Bradley, did you remember Juliana, Mr. Shawn’s only daughter,” Emily says, walking towards Bradley and only pushing me aside. That got me amused because I have heard stories about mothers-in-law not liking their daughters-in-law but I don’t know if I will end up one.

“Juliana I am very sure you and Bradley haven’t met up in a while. I think you should introduce yourself,” Emily says urging the strange girl that has been smiling sheepishly to greet my husband.

“Hi Bradley it’s been a long time,” she says, bringing her hands forward and that’s when I decided to step in like the crazy psycho I am.

“Nice meeting you Juliana I am Georgina Bradley’s wife, “I say, shaking her hands and that shocked her and not just her but the whole family watching my mother-in-law embarrassing me…

The whole sitting room fell into silence after my bold step of making my stand as Bradley’s wife. I can see that my mother-in-law is already burning with fury and her face is already green with anger but I don’t care since she doesn’t like me. I won’t stand during the ceremony to please her.

“Hubby, why don’t you introduce me to your family better”I say, pushing the still-shocked Juliana Shawn aside and standing beside my husband smiling sheepishly.

“I don’t think you need to get introduced anymore, you already made your sta, n, d,” a woman says and when I looked at I was able to deduce that she is Bradley’s aunt-in-law.

“You this brat you as rude as your husband you don’t even respect your elders”I heard the old man Hale says grumpily I looked at him and I can say he is still in a good shape despite his old age his white hair combed to the back, his wrinkles visible but it still can’t hide the dominating aura he has no wonder he was able to build Hale, a group he is no ordinary man.

“I am sorry Grandpa, I didn’t mean to be rude, it’s just that mother welcoming us was so overwhelming that I got so forgetful, “I say sarcastically standing in front of grandpa Hale and I can see that the old man wasn’t that angry and I breathe a sigh of relief.

“You are really pretty as the internet says or should I say you look better in person, “grandma Hale says, drawing me into a hug and I can say she is very warm just like her personality.

“Hi, I am Kate Bradley’s Aunt” a woman with thick makeup who still doesn’t hide the fact that she is fake but she still has a good stature despite her age.

“Welcome to the family”I heard a man that seems like he was forced to greet me say and when I looked at him I deduced that he is Jayden Hale Bradley’s cousin you can also say he is eye-catching but not as Bradley but I think the Hale Gene is so good because it’s producing amazing offspring.

Bradley’s Aunt Beatrice and her daughter also took turns in greeting me and Bradley’s father that look just like an older version of Bradley and his uncle Will Hale all so the only person who hates me was Bradley’s mom.

“Don’t you think you guys are not fair to Juliana why are you not welcoming her well when you have known her for a long time unlike some people”Bradley’s mom complained when no one cares about Juliana and the crazy girl decided to act like a victim.

“No it’s fine auntie I am sure that my arrival just surprises them,” she says like a victim and I can’t help but roll my eyes at her for being so dramatic.

“I am sorry Juliana but it’s not our fault this dinner is strictly for family and you are not I think that we are not so welcoming towards you, “Kate says and I know she is not supporting me because she doesn’t look like that kind of person but she is trying to use me to irk my mother-in-law.

“What do you mean she is not family we have known Juliana long enough at least we know her family unlike some people, “Bradley’s mother says and I saw Juliana smile.

“Mother!”Bradley yelled but I told him that is fine because I don’t want him to fight with his mother because of me.

“Erm erm”Grandpa Hale clears his throat, “I think we should eat now I don’t want to hear you guys banter,” he says standing up while walking up and we all wait for him to walk out of the room before we leave.

“Hubby, you better stick to my side. I don’t want to get lost in this big mansion, “I say.

“I can tour you around it if you want”I heard a voice behind us and when I looked at the source I saw Jayden with a smile plastered on his face but before I could reply to him Bradley beat me to it.

“She is my wife so I can very well tour her around, “Bradley says coldly dismissing Jayden’s suggestion. I noticed that angered Jayden but he quickly masked his anger and he walked away.
