Episode 8 - Hard choice /Noah's POV/ "Hello Sir", my Secretary greeted from the other line of the call. "Speak," I ordered, giving a distance to Isabelle with hands crossed on my chest. "The shareholders call for an urgent meeting to choose the CEO for the company". He relayed sighing after dropping the shocking news. "What is their freaking problem, we proposed to them to give us time to sort things out". I yelled, dragging my feet along the room. "I don't know anything about it Sir, but we have been trying to find out what prompted this out of nowhere, Sir". He said, the frustration in his voice evident. "I will be coming right away," I disclosed, my countenance hardened on ending the call which made me bow my fists in a way that gave a creak and a reddish liquid oozed out of my hands.I could notice from the corner of my eyes as Isabelle shrieked palming her mouth with tears shimmering in her eyes. "I will have my bodyguard drop you off at home, I have

Episode 7 - Discovery~Noah's POV~I stepped into the warm shower, letting the steam envelope me. I closed my eyes and breathed in the scent of the lavender soap, feeling the tension in my shoulders start to melt away. The sound of the water trickling down my body was a soothing background noise as I ran her hands through her hair, enjoying the sensation of the warm water on my skin. The bathroom was bright and airy, Tub for two, exquisite sinks, sufficient counter space, good water pressure, my plenty of fluffy high-quality towels crept a smile to my face how I have missed this over the years I was in prison. It was a terrible mistake I had ever made. Ie gritted my teeth over the memories of the miserable and lonely existence I had to live in the prison. If I could change back the hands of time, I wouldn't have drunk myself into a stupor. As I lathered up the soap, I felt a sense of calm wash over me, I wrapped my towel around my waist, taking long strides to my bedroom with m

Fire~Isabelle's POV~ We took a slow but steady step to the entrance of the movie room. I looked over at Noah's expressionless cold face yet handsome. "Where are we going?" I asked, breaking the tension that was between us, probably lost in our thoughts. The movie entails more of my encounter with Noah showing up at my weakest point and struggle. I thought I had lost the chance to become popular with my career but here I met the handsome Greek God CEO coming to my aid like a knight in shining armour.The movie was a kdrama titled My Demon though we didn't get to watch the movie finish since it was already late. I didn't think I would focus on the movie more to the extent of being stuck in my seat not ready to go as they disclosed the end of the movie's day. "Hey, you are zoning out again". Noah called out interrupting me from my reverie. "Oooh, sorry about that" I apologized glancing at him. "Are you still afraid?" He questioned with a creased brow clenching

Strange experience~Isabelle~The bead of sweat trickled down my forehead, my heart was pounding fiercely in my chest. My hand was trembling, I paced down frantically looking everywhere in search of the beast. I had difficulty swallowing, a large lump formed in my mouth, bile rose in my throat and I felt nauseous. I stood up with my hands shaking, dropping the snacks on my lap. I can't believe he found me after all this while, all those years I have been hiding and running away from him hoping he won't find me. I knew I got myself in trouble the moment I encountered Noah and had to be the center of attention everywhere, not the quiet girl who detested attention. I bumped into a hard chest, hissing and grimacing at the pain not caring to look up. I rushed but I was jerked by a muscular hand which made me wince in pain. "What the hell is wrong with you". The voice yelled at me, I couldn't process the face as it was blurry, and my head was screaming for me to run.Trying

I opened my eyes and noticed I wasn’t in my flat, rushing to runaway I tripped over a foot then I noticed Noah seating beside the bed and my attempt to run woke him up“Oh, you’re awake, what are you doing in the fall”“Nothing, I just need water”“well you should have asked, and I will get that for you, get back on the bed you shouldn’t be moving too much since you just woke up” he helped me back to the bed and went to get me water.“Here drink it " he says pushing the cup towards me“What happened after I fell unconscious yesterday?”“That wasn’t yesterday, that was two days ago.“What? Two days, how?“yes, after you lost consciousness I tried to wake you up, but you started having panic attacks, so I had to call my family doctor to check on you, and he said it didn’t seem as if it was your first panic attack. something must have triggered it to happen.“What is causing your attacks?” he questions “None of your business" I snapped at him“It is my business because we are faking a r

“I think what If one of us gets attached then what are we going to do, everything is going to go haywire from there”“Well I won’t be getting attached, but I don’t know about you, I can be arrestable he stated smirking. But if that does happen then one has to tell the other, and we handle it together”“OK, so I ask again, are you up for it?“No, sorry, I can’t do it:”“What? Why?”“Because I don’t need this drama that rich people have in their lives, I managed to escape it once will not be going back there“what?, realizing I have said too much, “that not important, all you need to know is that I can’t do it. We will probably get caught before we get to the altar, I talk a lot when I am under pressure.“OK, why don’t think about and tell me your decision in three days”“Alright” I was about to get up when he stopped me.“I’m yet to know your name.” he said curiously.“Oh, I almost forgot. My name’s Isabella Summers.” I said and finally stood up, “I need to get going.”“Wait”, he stopp
