Must Find My Step-Dad's Wife

Chapter: 4

2 years later-

Edward's PoV~

"Dada are you ready?" Olivia inquired, while raising her eyebrows.

I turned to look at my princess who just came to the groom's room to literally scold him on his wedding day for getting late. Not that I mind though.

"Almost, princess." I said and I could see the glare she shot towards me. I gulped seeing her deadly glare.

"Dada you aren't the bride here.You are the groom for f***s sake. Get ready fast. I don't want my Alice to wait cuz of you."

My Alice??? I mean, like seriously, My Alice? Did she just forget that I'm her dada? And she has known me longer than she has known her. I know she loves her new mom very much but how can she forget me so easily. Her dada who has been by her side for so long. I internally wailed like a baby.

But I like the bond between Alice and Olivia too. I haven't seen Olivia this excited and cheerful, since the past 2 years. After that horrible incident, she had completely lost her happiness and smile. She would refuse to talk with anyone and wouldn't eat anything. All day she would lock herself in her room, while she sobbed seeing, Ava's and Jane's pictures. I would be just standing by her door listening to her cries and shouts, but I couldn't do anything. I felt so damn helpless. Almost every night she would wake up due to the nightmares and would get panic attacks after that. I tried so many times to ask her to see a therapist. But every time she refused to do so. For 2 years, it went like that.

But, then 3 months ago, I felt like our whole life changed. I took Olivia to the park, for which of course I had to emotionally blackmail her to agree, saying that if she didn't then she doesn't love her dada anymore. Reluctantly, she agreed. But even so she wouldn't talk. Until one day she met Alice, I swear that in the past 2 years, I had never seen her talking that much to anyone. And Alice too talked with her very nicely. The next day, she requested, that I take her to that park again. I was surprised at first that she asked me for something after such a long time and that too, to take her outside. But I quickly hid my happiness and shock from her, while I nodded.
Then in the evening, I again saw her talking very happily with Alice and smiling. I had never seen her smile after that accident. That day I decided, something...that I would ask Alice to marry me. So, Olivia could get a mother's love.

I proposed to Alice and she too accepted it happily. I still remember the look on my princess's face when I told her that Alice is gonna be her new mom. She was over the moon after hearing that.

I came out of the past memories, into the reality, when Olivia exclaimed suddenly.

"Oh dada, you're looking so good."

That's just when I realised that I was fully ready by now. I was wearing a navy blue tuxedo and my hair was perfectly brushed up with the help of the gel, giving it a very neat and elegant look. "You should look into the mirror, for how attractive you are looking right now." She squealed like a little child.

"Thanks, princess. And no need for that."
My baby's compliment is enough for me. No need to look in the mirror for reassurance cuz I believe my angel. I thought and smiled seeing her being all joyful.

A/n PoV~

After getting ready Edward and Olivia both went towards the Wedding Hall. The hall looked so lavish and costly that anyone could tell it was the world's most richest and powerful billionaire's wedding. There was a lot of lightning on the occasion and chandeliers with crystals and diamonds embedded in them were hung on the ceiling. The whole aisle was decorated with very rare and expensive flowers.

Every single billionaire, millionaires and CEOs were invited to the wedding. In fact, some of the close Mafia friends of Edward were present there too. It was the most luxurious wedding anyone can ever imagine.
