CHAPTER 19: A DECLARED ENEMY

In the garden of the Ashford mansion.

"My dear Coraline!" exclaimed Inesa with enthusiasm.

Sebastián's mother stood up and hugged her.

"Dear, you finally decide to visit me."

"I've had a lot of work. But here I am, as I promised," said Inesa, smiling.

Immediately, Sebastián's mother signaled to one of the maids to bring tea. As they settled down, Inesa delicately mentioned,

"I heard about Nicholas, it's practically a tragedy."

Coraline sighed deeply before responding,

"Yes, we are all devastated. Nicholas is the light of this house."

"I know," said Inesa, with feigned concern, "and I will do everything I can to support Sebastián."

There was a brief silence before Coraline asked,

"Did my son already tell you what the solution is?"

"Solution?" Inesa frowned, confused.

"Yes, the doctor spoke to them yesterday..."

"Wait, them? Who?"

"His assistant was with him, she walked in with Sebastián, she seemed like a worried mother," explained Coraline, revealing disap

Isabella thanked heaven that, at least, she wouldn't have to see him too much at home. However, her illusions were shattered when the maid showed her to her room."Mr. Ashford ordered that you sleep here," the maid explained, opening the doors to a large, beautiful, and luxurious room; a palace of comfort.The door next to the dressing room caught Isabella's attention."And that? What's it for?"The maid walked to the door and checked that it was locked."It's a door that connects to the next room. But it's locked, you have nothing to worry about."However, Isabella was worried. She had a feeling she wouldn't like to know who the next room belonged to."And... whose is the other room?" she insisted, her curiosity mixed with a sense of unease."Mr. Ashford's," the maid said, trying to downplay it. "But, as I said, ther

Sebastián's lips moved close to her ear, nibbling before moving down her back.She held back a moan but let it out when he suddenly turned her over and slapped her butt."Sebas..." his name died on her lips when he repeated the action, this time slapping her butt again.Isabella tried to turn around, but he circled her waist, forcing her to stay still."No, darling..." he whispered as his tongue traced the line of her spine. "I told you we were going to have fun, and that's what we'll do.""Please..." Isabella begged as he caressed her nipples. "Do we have to do it today?"Sebastián's laughter filled the room."Now?""Y... yes."He could see the nervousness all over her, which piqued his curiosity. Being a married woman and given how she seduced him at the hotel, she should have more experience with sex."She must be pretending. Does she want to appear as a poor

    CHAPTER 22: SIX YEARS MARRIED AND YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT LOVE? (II)Sebastián grabbed her hips and rubbed the head of his cock against her entrance, slowly sinking in as if he wanted to drag out the moment. Isabella's hands clenched the sheet and her legs trembled; he held her thighs as he penetrated her and began to move at a torturous pace.He extended his hand and caressed her clit, increasing his thrusts inside her, feeling how she tightened around him; however, for Sebastián, it wasn't enough.He wanted to feel all of her.Suddenly his thrusts took on a wild rhythm and she screamed in surprise, her pussy tightening around him again and again. Sebastián gritted his teeth to stifle the moan of pleasure that almost escaped his lips, feeling her tight pussy milking his cock."Damn it!" the word hissed from his lips, and he could no longer hold back.Sebastián was more animal than man when he spread her legs and rested her thighs on his strong forearms, penetrating her mercilessly.Isab

Nicholas is there; it would be good for you to spend time with him. He misses you.""Really?" Isabella's eyes lit up, and it was impossible for Sebastián to miss them. Suddenly, he pulled out his wallet and handed her some bills and a black card."This is for the taxi, and this," he said, pointing to the card, "is for your expenses. As my wife, I won't allow you to keep dressing like that."Isabella looked at her clothes and then nodded. They weren't ugly, but they were old. Curiously, Marcus never gave her money to update her wardrobe. Now, she understood why."Alright, thank you...""I'll be home tonight," he interrupted and gave her one last look before leaving.Isabella watched his back as he walked away and sighed. He was definitely a complicated man, but saving her father and, most importantly, finding her son was worth any sacrific

I came to visit Nicholas; Sebastián thought it would be good for me to spend time with him."Coraline frowned, clearly unsatisfied with the explanation, and she couldn't care less about what her son thought. She approached Isabella and looked her up and down with a coldness that cut through the air."I don't know what you might have imagined, but you are not welcome here. And I don't want you near my grandson."Isabella pressed her lips together but took a deep breath and said, "Mother-in-law...""Don't call me that!" Sebastián's mother exclaimed indignantly. "I don't know what you did to convince my son, but I warn you, I'm not as easy as he is. I don't like you, and I'll tell you straight. I don't want you as my daughter-in-law, and much less as Nicholas's mother, understand? So get out, get o

I don't have to discuss my decisions or the solutions I choose for my son's problems. What I decide to do or who I decide to do it with is my business and mine alone. So I suggest you keep your opinions to yourself, especially when they are so terribly wrong."Coraline gasped at her son's coldness. But Sebastián walked over to Isabella and kissed her on the lips."Go with Nicholas, I'll be with you in a moment."Isabella nodded faster than she expected and followed the maid. Sebastián and his mother were left face to face."How dare you say that in front of that woman?! I'm your mother!""You are, but you have no right to offend her and even less to meddle in my affairs, mother. Why do you insist on Inesa? I've already told you that I will never see her as anything more than my partner."Coraline turned around angrily."That's because you don't take th

Her face was red with embarrassment, and she refused to let him intimidate her, so she crossed her arms and looked him in the eye."Actually, you're not that impressive..." she twisted her lips and sighed as if he wasn't tempting her right now "... I've seen better.""You're such a liar, Isabella. You've only seen Marcus, and he's not even close. But you, stay firm, don't feed this man's ego. It doesn't matter that he has strong abs, muscular arms, powerful legs, and an Adonis-like face. No, don't allow it."However, her words made Sebastián's movements stop. His sharp gaze pinned her down, and he threw the towel in his hand to the floor and approached her in two steps. Isabella backed away, but as always, he managed to corner her.Sebastián's warm breath mixed with her

The man who had been hired by Inesa to follow Isabella gave her all the information. "Apparently, Miss Collins is looking for her son," the man replied.Inesa's movements froze upon hearing this. Her eyes narrowed, and a wicked smile appeared on her lips."Son?" Inesa said, surprised and then intrigued."That's right. I had to bribe one of the office employees. The information is 100% certain. She is looking for her son," the man confirmed, nodding.Inesa reclined in her chair, thoughtful, and her smile grew more pronounced."So the bitch is a mother, huh? Who would have thought...?" she said with a sarcastic laugh. The man watched her, waiting for more instructions. "The question is if Sebastian knows.""Do you want me to keep investigating?" the man asked, anxious."Of course, you idiot. Don't lose sight of her and inform me of all her movements

Unfortunately, Inesa's father had insisted on having dinner the same night he was supposed to dine with Isabella. But he wasn't willing to stay too long; he would listen to what Rodrik had to say, discuss the loan, and leave."Sebastián, good to see you," Rodrik stood up and extended his hand.Sebastián took it and shook it."Likewise, Rodrik. Since you moved to England, you've forgotten about the United States."The man let out a laugh and sat down."Business in London is going well, and I like to keep an eye on my investments. However, Inesa keeps me updated on what's happening here."Sebastián smiled slightly."Yes, I imagine. Well, since we're here, let's get to the point, Rodrik. I have another engagement tonight, and...""Another engagement? More important than your father's company?"Sebastián gritted his teeth and nodded."I'd dare say it's much more important, so... if you don't mind..

    CHAPTER 97: PUBLIC PROPOSAL.Sebastián slammed the table in frustration."I don't understand how this could have happened, Inesa. The Japanese were convinced; it was almost a done deal."Inesa, with a calculatedly neutral expression, replied."Well, nothing is guaranteed. They suddenly called and said there was a better offer. Although I tried to persuade them, they wouldn't budge. Now the problem is ours. We had invested a lot and didn't sign anything."Sebastián's concern was palpable."How are we going to recover the losses?"Inesa, maintaining a facade of seriousness, hid her internal satisfaction. She had manipulated the situation from the start, ensuring the Japanese withdrew from the deal."We need to find money, and a lot of it," continued Sebastián, his voice laden with desperation. "Payments have to be made by the end of the month, along with the company's payroll and..."Inesa moved closer, feigning empathy she didn't feel."Sebastián, you know you're not alone. Anyway, I'v

Isabella was surprised by Sebastián's parenting skills and couldn't help but smile as she imagined Nicholas's happy childhood."And how's school going, champ? Have you made any new friends?" Sebastián asked while they were having dinner.Nicholas speared a tomato and put it in his mouth."There's a girl I like, Dad. I'm going to marry her when I'm older."Everyone at the table was stunned."You... you like her?" Isabella couldn't believe his words."Yes, she's pretty and sweet. I've decided she'll be my wife," he then looked at Sebastián and said with total seriousness, "Dad, I want you to talk to her father."Sebastián wiped his mouth with the napkin and adopted a serious expression with his son."Nicholas, I understand you like her, but love has to be reciprocal.

    CHAPTER 95: UNION OF SOULS.In her office, Inesa slammed the door shut, wishing she could unleash all her rage on something or someone. Suddenly, in a fit of fury, she swept everything off her desk. Sebastián's humiliating words kept repeating inside her."You cursed, a thousand times cursed!" she shouted.To her, Isabella was to blame for everything. If she hadn't appeared in Sebastián's life, she would have succeeded. At this moment, she would be his wife and have the man she had wanted since she met him. But Isabella had shown up to ruin everything, and not content with that, she wouldn't stop bothering him.She walked to the liquor cabinet and poured herself a glass of whiskey. There was a dark and cruel glint in her eyes."Since you insist on being my main obstacle, you leave me no choice, Isabella."She took a sip, and the liquid burned her throat."Because I always get what I want, and what I want right now is for you to disappear."Her phone vibrated on the floor. She bent dow

    CHAPTER 94: "THERE'S ONLY ONE WOMAN I LOVE."Isabella read the message and didn't respond. She looked at the roses again, and the words "throw them away" were stuck in her throat. However, the anger still boiled inside her."Do you think roses are going to fix everything? After all that happened, do you think some flowers can erase it?"She grabbed her purse and car keys, stormed out, and didn't even bother to answer her secretary. When she arrived at the Ashford Enterprises building, everyone stared at her in astonishment and murmured among themselves. Louis, who was coming out of the stationery area, hurried to her."Ma'am... I mean, Miss... You?""Where's your boss?""The boss? He's... he's in the office, but he's in a meeting. If you want, I can...""No need, it will be brief."Isabella turned and went to the office, opened the door decisively, and found Sebastian meeting with another man. Both turned their faces when the door opened; however, Isabella's unfriendly face told them

    CHAPTER 93: "HAS HE KISSED MOM?"In the car, Nicholas was looking at the cityscape. He felt a sense of excitement inside him; today his dad would take him to school, and later his mom would pick him up. It was like being together again. Suddenly, the same question he asked his mom came back to his mind, and this time he asked Sebastian."Dad...""Yes, son," Sebastian said, glancing at him quickly."You and Mom... are you going to get back together?"Sebastian smiled and sighed."That's what Dad is trying to achieve. It's just that Mom..." he laughed again, "she's a bit stubborn."Nicholas nodded."Yeah, Mom is stubborn. I don't know why she doesn't let you come back home if she's just going to cry alone in her room later."Sebastian's eyebrows furrowed, and his demeanor turned serious."Have you seen her?"Nicholas nodded."Yes. But then she'll say it's nothing. But I know she does it because of you."Sebastian gripped the steering wheel, his knuckles turning white. He felt like crap

    CHAPTER 92: "DAD, WILL YOU TAKE ME TO SCHOOL?"Sebastian's lips seized Isabella's with dominance, his eager hands slowly traversing her back as she surrendered to the sensation of his warm fingers gliding over her skin. Her hands closed in on the hair at the nape of his neck, and an involuntary moan escaped her lips, only serving to heighten the desire in both of them.In a burst of passion, Sebastian lifted her by the buttocks and placed her on top of the table, positioning himself between her now-exposed thighs. He pressed his erection against her center, and another moan escaped Isabella's lips. It was wrong, she knew it, but she wasn't strong enough to fight the desires Sebastian awakened in her.He pulled away from her lips and began leaving a trail of kisses down her neck. His warm, wet tongue licked every part of her collarbone, and Isabella closed her eyes, tilting her head back, wishing he would go as far as he wanted. There would be time to regret it later, but at that momen

She was in shock, her heart racing and her breathing heavy. She never imagined he would wake up.Although she was tempted to say yes, the words that came out of her lips were:"No... no, I..." She stepped back and tried to sound firm. "I just came down for some water, saw the blanket on the floor and..." She frowned and shook her head. "You know what? I don't have to explain myself to you, and between you and me..."Isabella was left speechless when Sebastián stood up, revealing his defined, muscular torso, and his lack of pants. She pointed at him, surprised and angry."You...! Why are you in your underwear? What do you think you're doing?"Sebastián ignored her complaint and walked towards her. Isabella took several steps back until her back hit the dining table."What... what... what are you going to do?" she asked, nervous and anxiou

Your father can stay tonight," she said, trying to keep her voice calm.Nicholas beamed and hugged Sebastián tightly. But just at that moment, Elijah intervened."Isabella, I just remembered that there are some urgent legal matters we need to discuss. And we can't leave it for tomorrow," he said, looking at Isabella seriously.Isabella frowned, clearly surprised by the urgency of the matter."Tonight?" she asked, trying to understand the situation. "Can't it wait until tomorrow morning?""I'm sorry, Isabella, but it's crucial that we review it now," Elijah insisted.Sebastián gave him a hateful look and pressed his lips together in frustration, feeling a mix of fury and desperation as he realized that Elijah was determined to take over his family.
