Writer’s povBoth parents were very surprised to realize that their kids were very fond of each other, happy to see each other. “Do you live around this neighborhood?” Anna asked. This is the reason why Bella almost thought she was not being completely honest with her because she keeps asking so many questions, questions that make her seem like a spy to Bella.“Why do you ask?” Bella asked her. Anna thought they had already gotten close to a certain extent that’s why she asked but seeing Bella’s reply made her think otherwise. “I’m sorry if it came out the wrong way, I was only wondering if the kids can go to school together. Bella placed her and on her head tiredly, she realized she only said that because she wanted the kids to start going to school together, but she was already thinking about the worst scene, even though she wanted to stop she just couldn’t because she had already been betrayed by the people close to her so she just thought they are all the same and the moment she
Isabella’s pov“Good morning, my prince and princess.” I walked into their room trying to wake them up. “oh, mom, please don’t do this today. It’s weekend for crying out loud. “Pete said as he was finding it hard to get up from the bed. “Are you really going to be like this right now?” I asked both of them and none answered because they were fast asleep. I decided to leave them there and go do the chores I was doing earlier, I stopped because I wanted to wake them up but since they have both refused to wake I decided to leave them alone. While I was putting everything in place in their room, I came across something that Pete drew. I turned to look at him after seeing his drawing, it seemed as though even if he’s not saying it he might need a father figure in his life. Everything in his drawing book was a complete family image which means that’s what he wants the most. I didn’t know how to feel after seeing this.I didn’t know when tears welled down my eyes because this is what I wa
Writer’s povWithout thinking too much about it Bella ran away, she couldn’t take the risk of letting Andrew see her. Patience and Anna were shocked to see her run away just when the doctor was about to talk to them. “Bella,” Anna tried calling her but she didn’t turn back. Andrew saw the person and was wondering why she was running away like that. “Is she okay?” Andrew asked as he was still looking at Anna running away like she had done something wrong. Anna turned to look at the person that spoke and she was shocked because he’s her boss and Tristan’s Nephew. She let out a bright smile and stretched her hands to receive a handshake from Andrew. “Oh my goodness, it’s an honor to receive a handshake from you sir.” Anna said to him nervously, she was very excited about the handshake that her body was even shaking. Bella watched what was going on from afar. “Why does she always lick ass? That’s why I found it hard to confide in her earlier.” Bella muttered to herself. “About that
Isabella pov I went in immediately Anna went inside to confirm if it was really the odour of a burning food. “What is wrong with you? Do you want to burn down the house?” I could tell from her voice that she was upset. “My mind was occupied so I couldn’t focus on what I was cooking.” I explained to her as I sat on the dinner. Anna turned to look at me when she heard what I said. “I really don’t know what you’re going through but you know you have kids and they are looking up to you for everything, you have to be careful while doing anything because of them.” Anna advised. I looked at her face as she was talking. “Does he have a dad?” I suddenly asked her because I have been curious since the last time we met. Anna was shocked when she heard me ask her such a question. “That’s not what’s important right now, I’m talking about you now, and how you are supposed to overcome this phase.” Anna said trying to skip answering the question, I could feel she was trying to escape whic
Isabelle povThen the next morning I woke up very early, thought I could barely get enough rest, I headed out of the house and dropped Patience in school. While I was heading to the hospital to see Pete I was hoping to get some good news from the doctor, I couldn’t bear to hear any more bad news from the doctor. “Good morning.” I greeted the nurse by the counter and requested that I want to see my son. I was given permission to go in. All of a sudden my legs started feeling numb as I got to the front of his ward. “Good morning Mrs Isabella.” The doctor greeted me with a smile on his face as he walked up to me, I turned to look at him with a faint smile. “I’m here to see my son.” I said to him hoping he would let me go in. “Oh, he has been waiting for you.” The doctor said and we both walked in, when we got in Pete was already asleep but I was relieved to hear that he had already woken up earlier and he was looking for me. I sat beside him and patted his head slowly. “He is free
Writer's pov“Mom, I know her, she's up to something.” Victoria said to her mother as she was paving around the sitting room. Victoria has been stressed since she met with Bella a few days ago, she keeps telling her mom that Bella is up to something that's why she's still in the country.“So what do you want me to do about her? You got what she had, you won in the end, don't give her the power.” Victoria looked at Anita's face after what she said to her. She knew too well that she won in the end but she was not as happy as she thought she would be.“Mom, can't you see from my view?” Victoria asked, still not taking her mother's words, she still wants to believe that Bella was up to something.“Okay, so the issue here is, you saw her with a little boy and she's still here?” Anita asked. Victoria nodded her head when she heard her mother's question. “If you are going to be such a coward then why did you take him away from her?” Victoria was shocked to hear what her mother said. Both of
Writer's povWhile Bella was going to find Pete she got a little worried because the way he sounded earlier made her worry. She was wondering if there's something going on that they are not telling her about. She hurried to the school as her mind became unsettled.“Why did I have to meet her?” Bella asked herself and after a long walk she finally arrived at the school. She looked around and realized he was not outside. “Why is he not waiting here? Did he go inside?” Bella asked herself and looked around again before she finally decided to go inside the school and check if Pete decided to go to class.“Good day sir.” Bella greeted a teacher she sighted in the hallway.“Good day ma'am.” He greeted me with a smile on his face. “How can I help you?” He asked almost immediately. Bella brushed her hair behind her ear nervously. “I am here to pick Pete up, he was just discharged from the hospital and he insisted on coming because he claims his sister cannot be in school without him, he said
Isabella pov I felt very guilty for everything that has been happening to the kids because all the while I was thinking they were understanding they were also going through the worst phase of their lives and they couldn't tell me because they didn't want to add to my troubles. “They should have told me.” I muttered to myself. “What would you have done?” The question hit me more than I imagined, I didn't know what to reply to him when I heard what he said. “Hey, look at me, these bullies could only do that because they didn't see anyone around the kids, no amount of words would make them stop, only action would stop them from bullying the kids.” I was confused as to what kind of action was Tristan talking about. “Action?” I asked again trying to confirm if I heard correctly. “Yes.” “Mom, he's up already.” Patience came to tell me, I was about to ask Tristan more questions but I had to go see my son. He looked really pale. “Why didn't you tell me about the bullies?” “
Isabella's povEverything seemed to be going well in my life all of a sudden, it felt like my life has started from the scratch and there's nothing like a horrible past. I have my dad, my kids and then there is Tristan also. It felt like my life had suddenly become good and things were moving smoothly for me.I followed Tristan because he was really upset with me for keeping such important information away from him because if my dad wasn't found and he wasn't on the dining he wouldn't have known that the reason why our relationship was kept the secrets is because of my dad. “I'm sorry Tristan, I didn't know how to tell you because at that time Dad was nowhere to be found.” “That's my issue, so if your Dad wasn't found there is no possibility that we will be together in the end. It was always going to be a secret relationship till the very end.”“No, the truth was meant to come out eventually and you’ll get to know the reason why I was actually keeping it a secret.” Tristan looked
Writer's povAfter a few days, James was fully recovered and even though he had a few months to live he was ready to live the months to the fullest with his daughter and try not to let anything come between them.“Good morning dad.” Bella greeted him with a smile on her face. James wasn't feeling too good but he had to act like he's fine because he didn't want them to worry too much about him.“Good morning Bella, you look really good.” He tried complementing his daughter. James was trying to do things that he hasn't done in a while for his daughter. He knew that most of the things he tried to do now would not be able to cover up for the Lost times but he was trying his best to make sure that he is able to do things for her before his time is up. “Dad, that's unlike you.” Bella said while blushing because it's been a while since her father complemented her like that. “Well it was like me before I thought of remarrying.” Bella knew very well that her daddy was trying his best to make
Writer's povVictoria and Anita were still searching for James, they checked everywhere possible but they were still unable to find him. Victoria was getting more scared and she was looking for means to get herself out of the situation and maybe try to put everything on her mom. “I'm never going down with her.” Victoria muttered to herself while biting her finger. Victoria was already aware of Andrew’s recent plan of trying to find them through the media, their pictures were everywhere on the internet and also on television so it won't take time before they are found and James disappearance would only make it easier for them to be found because he definitely would not keep his mouth shut about being locked up for a very long time. Anita was out of the house because she still had the opportunity to step out as her face was not all over the internet like Victoria's. She was trying her best to find James because she knew for a fact that she is the cause of everything that is going on.
Isabella povFor a moment I felt like I didn't deserve to cry because if I had behaved like a good child to him this wouldn't be happening, if only I had given him good listening ears maybe he wouldn't be in this condition. Judging from the way he was laying on the bed I could tell he was in a critical state. I couldn't go closer to him because I felt guilty. “What happened? Why was he found by the roadside? Was he robbed? Did they harm him? Please can you tell me exactly what happened and why he is lying here?” I asked Kendrick.Kendrick placed his hand on my shoulder trying to calm me down because I was asking too many questions at the same time and he didn't know the one to answer first.“Bel, hey look at me nothing is going to happen to your dad trust me.” Kendrick said to me even though I know he was trying to make me feel better I still did not appreciate the fact that he was saying such a thing when obviously my dad is in a critical state.“Kendrick I appreciate that you are
Isabella's PovAfter several weeks of trying to find Victoria but to no avail, I was shocked to see her news all over the internet. I couldn't believe that he would go to such an extent just to make sure he finds Victoria and punishes her for what she did.What bothered me the most was my dad. I hoped everyday that he wasn't in with them on this horrible plan of destroying Andrew's life because if he is a part I would also make sure that he pays.My phone hasn't been with me for some hours now and the kids aren't back from school. I decided to go upstairs to the room and pick up my phone. On heading upstairs my head kept hurting after taking medication but it still wouldn't stop. I wonder why.When I got upstairs I saw my phone on the bed. I immediately picked it up and shockingly I missed a lot of calls. The call was from a strange number which made me wonder who would call several times with a strange number, definitely it has to be someone I know because he/she has my number.Just
Writer's pov“You care?” Victoria asked again and started laughing just like she did earlier.“Vict….”“Don't you dare try to be a mother now, because when I needed that love the most you never showed it, you told me to grow up and never act like a child because you would never treat me like a mother will treat her child so what changed? Why are you trying to act like you really do care about me?”Anita was quiet when she heard what Victoria said, she knew for a fact that she was guilty of everything that Victoria mentioned but she did all those things out of ignorance without realizing how much it will hurt her daughter. “I really…” Victoria raised her hand once again to stop her mom from talking. She has been cutting Anita short each time Anita tries to say anything.“Now is not the time to act like a mother. What is more important right now is to find out where James is and stop him from doing anything stupid right now.” Victoria said to Anita and they both started thinking of way
Writer's povAndrew came back to his senses the moment he realized he is beginning to have a soft spot for her again, remembering that she is the one that ruined his life.“Victoria, I don't care about what's going on in your life right now. What matters the most to me is that you return here and explain to the authorities that I have no hand in the current bad dealings the construction company is going through.”Victoria was suddenly quiet when she heard what Andrew said. She couldn't reply to him because he was talking about her biggest problem here right now. If she is found she will be the one to take responsibility for what's going on in the company right now. “I don't know what you're talking about. I will be coming soon so we can finalize our divorce that's the only thing that I care about right now.” Victoria concluded and ended the call immediately she picked up her cigarettes and started smoking. Even though Victoria acted tough she still wasn't very confident, but what she
Writer's pov Tristan and Bella were shocked to hear the conclusion that Andrew came up with. Bella has known Andrew for years and how immature he could be most times especially in situations like this so she knew very well that he was going to request for something as stupid as what he just requested for. In as much as it sounded stupid it was actually the best idea so save the kids the stress of choosing between both parents who they want to be with if the case gets to court. “Don't push me Andrew. You fucking kicked me out of your house! You told me that you don't want me anymore. You said a lot of hurtful things to me, so what is going on now? Why are you going back to your words? I am still following what you said with that mouth of yours so what changed?” Bella asked curiously. She was panting really fast, there was so much left that she wanted to say to him but she stopped herself from saying too much because right now they are in a critical state of either of them losing custo
Isabella’s pov Seeing Andrew in my house was a big shock to me that I didn't know when I screamed at my kids, I'm very sure they were upset with me but I didn't want them anywhere close to Andrew because I had a feeling that he might have already found out that they are his children and he kept it a secret because him coming here unannounced was kind of suspicious. He and Tristan barely talk at the moment so he clearly wasn't here to speak to Tristan. He is definitely here to say something about the kids or about the both of us even though I have told him several times that it's never going to happen again. “Visiting this house is not your specialty so what exactly are you here for? I know very well that there are no present contracts to be signed so why did you come all the way to my house?” Tristan said to him when he was taking time to reply to the question that I asked, I can already tell the reason why he was here but what I don't understand is why he isn't saying anything. He
