Married To A Powerful Domineering Billionaire

Finding Her Trouble

RAYNE’S POV

I got down from the car and Eliana and Ann came rushing to me.

“Oh my God bitch is that you,” Eliana said as she pulled from the hug.

“You look so beautiful, Rayne.” Ann said as she smiled at me.

“Thanks babies.” I said. I heard my name and for a minute the voice sounded familiar.

“Rayne, wife of Erickson Arnold.” Bianca called as she approached me.

“Welcome,” she said with a smirk.

This didn’t seem good. Why was Bianca greeting me so politely?

“Hi.” I said to her,

“You know I wouldn’t start from the part where your husband closed down my boutique.” she said as she blew air on her nails and chuckled.

“I’m sorry he didn’t mean to…”

“No darling you don’t need to be sorry, I’ve got it from here okay, enjoy your party Mrs Erickson Arnold.” Bianca cut me short with her words. she walked out on us casually with a mischievous grin plastered at the corner of her lips.

“What’s wrong with her?” Eliana asked no one in particular.

Our heads were now facing the direction which Bianca took. We kept watching her walk like kids who were looking at a superstar.

“Who does she think she is?” Eliana said again this time with a bit loud grunt.

“Don’t let her ruin your day Rayne, it’s your day and you have to be happy,” Ann said and Eliana agreed to her.

“Don’t keep mother waiting,” Ann said with a smile and took my hand in hers leading me to the gathering of Mrs Lawn’s and her friends.

I walked into their gathering heads bowed to avoid any embarrassment or eye gaze. The atmosphere was already sophisticated and the gazes coming from the elderly women were giving me cold chills.

I tried to control myself as my anxiety woke up, I was being nervous again.

What would they think of me, do they like me now, am I dressing fine, is my hair okay, what about my makeup… all these thoughts ran through my head.

“There she is, the woman we all came here to celebrate, my daughter in-law,” Mrs Lawn said out loud as she got up from her chair and walked over to me.

“I miss you so much daughter.” Mrs Lawn added as she hugged me tightly.

For a very long time I felt relaxed and comforted. It felt as though she took all my pains and worries just by hugging me. I hugged her back, I missed her too.

She finally pulled from the hug and my eyes met with Grand Mrs Lawn’s.

I walked up to her with a smile and greeted her before hugging her.

She smiled back at me and that’s all.

Guess the gathering wasn’t as bad as I thought.

I sat down beside Ann and Elaina.

Just then Bianca walked in. Her eyes fixed on mine and her mischievous grin not leaving her lips she walked and sat close to us.

“We meet again Princess.” she said with a smirk.

I decided not to reply to her but to keep my attention on what the women had to say about marriage.

“Let’s start with your daughter in-law, she just arrived from her honeymoon and she should share her experience with us.” McCarthy Bianca’s mother said.

My heart beat increased and I could feel sweat starting to gather at my forehead.

“Yes, tell us what happened.” Bianca said, giving me a side eye look.

I looked at Mrs Lawn’s and grand Mrs Lawn’s but it seemed they had nothing to say.

Ann held my hands in a comforting way assuring me I can do it.

I closed my eyes and opened it gently.

“My marriage is my privacy, none of you have the right to ask me about my honeymoon, now if you don’t mind you may change the topic,” I said being as brave as ever.

Mrs Lawn’s looked at me with a satisfying smile.

Ann whispered into my ears.

“That was awesome.” Ann said.

“Take that Bianca,” Elaina said to Bianca, not too loud.

“Your daughter in-law has gotten wings.” Mrs Lydia said.

“It’s not called wings Lydia, it’s called self defense, I mean I never asked your daughter in-law what happened at her honeymoon even if it was obvious that nothing serious happened.” Mrs Lawn said and everyone laughed.

Mrs Lydia laugh was just a small cough I could see the hurt in her eyes as she glared at me. I moved my eyes from her and whispered to Bianca.

“You and your mother better stop coming at me,” I said I was trying to be a tigress but her next action was shocking.

“What? Did you just call my mom a bitch?” Bianca screamed so loud.

“What.”

“The daughter in-law is so rude.”

“She’s not cultured.”

“I think Bianca is lying.”

“What a spoiled brat for a wife,”

I heard the people murmuring and I looked at Mrs Lawn’s who seemed embarrassed.

I got closer to Bianca and whispered.

“What are you doing? I never said anything like that.” I said to her, but she didn’t reply.

I looked at Ann and Eliana who looked at me with pity eyes.

“I didn’t say anything like that,” I said out loud but the people kept on talking.

“Please believe me she’s lying.” I half screamed.

My tears were now gathered and ready to fall.

“Mother.” I called Mrs Lawn’s but her head was bowed.Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

I looked at grand Mrs Lawn’s and she gave me a reassuring look.

The tears were starting to fall. I couldn’t hold it any longer, I held my gown up and ran out of the gathering only to be held back by a strong arm. I looked up and behold it was Eric.

“Eric.” I called softly.
