Isabella's pov

It's finally the day that the kids will resume school again. They didn't look as excited as I thought they would but still I was happy that I wouldn't have to be stressed out all day because of them again since they will be resuming school today.

After preparing them for school I headed back to the room to prepare myself so I could drop them at school. When I was done dressing up we were all set to leave and we headed out of the house.

It's been months now since we started living with Tristan and I was slowly beginning to realize that maybe or somehow we might be making him uncomfortable. It might be time for us to find a place of our own so that he can have his house to himself again.

While the driver drove us to school, I had a lot on my mind. I know that staying with Tristan for this long isn't a good idea but at the same time I don't have enough resources and enough money to leave the house right now and the kids as well it would be very hard to tell them that we h

  • A Second Chance Family for the CEO    Chapter 87

    Isabella pov When I got back to the house I staggered inside because I was too weak to walk after finding out what happened seven years ago. I still can't believe that Marissa was the one responsible for what happened that day. If I could recall very well that day we were all at home and I just finished cooking for Andrew before the whole thing started. I was so happy that day because I was slowly getting the symptoms of pregnancy and I wanted to talk to Andrew about it so that we could go do a test but my happiness that day turned into a nightmare that I am yet to recover from even after 7 years. I covered my mouth with my hand and closed the door when I recollected that day very well and how she kept saying and insisting that I was an infidel and I don't deserve the love that Andrew Has been showing me. I have been hoping for the day that the truth will come out but suddenly I wish it never came out and we all just kept living the way we were living. Knowing that Marissa

  • A Second Chance Family for the CEO    Chapter 88

    Writer's pov Tristan noticed that there's been a difference in Bella's character these past few days. He wanted to talk to her about it but he didn't know how she would take it. She might find it offensive that he is talking about the way she has been behaving. He had also been thinking of how to make their relationship official so that they can get married though he wasn't sure about Bella's feelings towards him. Sometimes she gives him this kind of mixed signal where she acts like she likes him and there are sometimes she behaves like he's just a friend so he didn't know if she really had feelings for him. “Good morning.” Tristan greeted Bella with a bright smile on his face. Bella smiled too and sat down on the dining chair. The kids had already gone to school so it was just both of them left in the house. Tristan was thinking about the kind of conversation to bring up but he couldn't think of anything at the moment. He tried to think of what to say but there was no topic to

  • A Second Chance Family for the CEO    Chapter 89

    Isabella povI felt sick having him in the same environment. I know that now he is going to be the same person that I used to know back then. “What is wrong with him now?” I asked myself while still thinking about why he is even trying to please me because our relationship ended a long time ago and I am not ready to make up with him, not even if the kids beg me. Now I have to think about how to explain the present situation to Tristan because he was obviously upset when he got here earlier and saw the flower that Andrew left on my table. It's been hard trying to suppress my feelings for him and now Andrew has only come to make things even worse.“I feel sick.” I muttered to myself and heaved a sigh.*******Writer's povAfter spending some time thinking about what to tell Tristan so that he doesn't see Andrew's gestures as anything more than what it used to be because things will never change between both of us. We are going to remain enemies for a very long time.Tristan was in hi

  • A Second Chance Family for the CEO    Chapter 90

    Isabella povI felt sick of Andrew's presence and his constant pressure so I thought it'd be better to have a conversation with him. Maybe he will stop disturbing me as the news was spreading pretty fast that both of us are in a relationship which isn’t true. “Can we talk?” I asked Andrew in the restaurant and we both stepped out to have a conversation. “What the hell are you doing?” I asked him after successfully dragging him outside. Andrew looked confused when I asked the question. “What do you mean?” He asked, trying to act like he didn’t know what I was talking about. “You know exactly what I’m talking about, what is wrong with you? Why have you chosen to make my life so uncomfortable?” I asked him angrily. “Well, you finally agreed to talk so I guess it worked.” I placed my hand on my head and for a moment I almost got swayed, those were the same words he said in college the day I decided to hear him out and after some weeks we became official. I had the flashback and almos

  • A Second Chance Family for the CEO    Chapter 91

    Andrew povI know that trying very hard wasn't the best alternative but I had no other choice but to do what I have to do to get Bella back into my life even if it means returning after being chased several times. I know that nothing I do or say will make up for the last years but I was ready to do whatever it takes to make us work again.From the way she was behaving I could tell that she was very upset with me and my presence probably irritates her so much that she doesn't want to see me around her, but no matter how far she chases me away I am not going to stop until she decides to forgive me. While we were all seated on the chairs in the restaurant I could tell that everyone was staring at us but at this point I didn't want to care about what anyone had to say. All I want is my Bella back and this time I am not going to make the same mistake that I made in the past. Tristan joined us so instead of it becoming a normal lunch among staff, it's standing into the wall of nerves. Tho

  • A Second Chance Family for the CEO    Chapter 92

    Writer's pov Andrew couldn't believe that Victoria would have the guts to call him after what she did. He was fuming while on the phone with her because he wanted to know where she was and why she did all those evil things that she did. It made him realize that he has been living with a stranger for 7 years because it seems more like he never knew who he was married to. “I already sent you the divorce papers, you will be visited by my lawyers soon. Please sign the papers as soon as possible. I can't wait to be free from you.” Andrew was shocked to hear what she said because he was supposed to be the one to say that and not her.“Are you even listening to yourself right now? Victoria, you are the one that ran away with my millions of dollars and you still have the guts to talk about being free after all the damage that you have caused just because I gave you freedom to my company.” “Andrew I know that you're upset about everything that happened between both of us but you also contr

    Victoria’s povSince I was younger I always did what I could to please my mom but she never changed towards me. Sometimes I had to live all by myself for up to a month. It went on like that while I thought everyday about how to make her happy because she barely smiled around me. One day she returned and told me we would have a family soon. I was very excited about having a new family, though I thought he would be a single man without any issues. “Mom, are you finally going to give me a sister?” I asked her excitedly and without replying she eyes me and walks away. I just thought she was acting that way because life has been very unfair to us. Dad died the day I was born and the loan sharks took everything we had so they could cover the debt dad took before dying. Hearing mom talk about having a new family was a different type of excitement. While I was returning from school the next day, I sighted my mom in a glass built restaurant, I wanted to go see her just then I saw her brigh

    Writer's povVictoria doesn't know if what she is doing is a good thing but at this point she is determined to do whatever it takes to make things right and maybe after a while Andrew will finally be able to forgive her.“Good morning mom.” Victoria greeted Anita with a bright smile on her face. Anita was surprised to see Victoria smiling so bright because last night they had a very serious misunderstanding and she thought that today Victoria will give her attitude but shockingly Victoria didn't act any different from how she always acts every other day. “Morning.” Anita replied in a very low tone as she was looking at Victoria still trying to figure out if she was okay, it's kind of strange that she wasn't upset with her anymore.“What? Why are you looking at me like I have just risen from the dead?” Victoria teased Anita while making her something she would eat. “Are you planning to do something that I wouldn't approve of? I know you too well to know that whenever you are worried

    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

  • A Second Chance Family for the CEO    Chapter 106

    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

  • A Second Chance Family for the CEO    Chapter 105

    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.
