Writer's P O V
Nathaniel got down from the plane he boarded down to Washington DC on Wednesday 6pm. He suddenly had business contracts to sign with a man he has been trying to win over so he shifted coming down to Washington until he was done with everything. Luckily, he finished up with everything last night and couldn't wait to come down to Washington.
He was so nervous, yet he wanted to confirm all the possibilities that he might have impregnated Isabella without knowing as soon as possible.
He boarded a taxi which took him to the nearest hotel where he booked for a VIP room. He also looked into acquiring a penthouse during his stay in that hotel.
Early the next morning, he was going to approach Isabella with a business deal. He was very sure that Isabella won't recognize him so he won't h
ADOPTED HEIR **Meeting Kendrick** Writer's P O VNathaniel remained in Queen's company hoping to see Isabella again. He wasn't so sure he could just approach her randomly so he wanted them to meet through business.Soon, he saw the lady that looked so much like her younger self with her twin brother. Nathaniel concluded in his mind that they must be his kids seeing his exact picture on the boy's face.He palmed his face and looked away from them when the Kendra looked towards his direction. He just can't approach them either when he doesn't know what to say. The truth is, Nathaniel is not really prepared to meet his possible kids.He's way too nervous about everything. He took deep breaths when he saw Kendrick coming back alone.Okay. I can't delay things, I only have a month to win them over. I must win them over in a month
ADOPTED HEIR **Meeting Kendrick 2** Writer's P O V"So man, how did it go?" Paul inquired staring at Nathaniel who was sitting across the table in a bar.Nathan sighed and adjusted on his sit. "It didn't really go well, but we are getting closer," Nathan answered."You mean you weren't able to speak to Isabella? You didn't see her?" Paul asked in amusement."I thought you planned on getting to her through business. They didn't give you the audience?""Yes, I went as an individual person. I don't want to involve the company just yet. I'll involve the company when I finally meet and see her reaction. I want to see if she'll be able to recognize me." Nathan explained."I don't think she'll be able to recognize you. You have changed a lot, man. Damn! You look more handsome than ever, growing old is working well for you."

David sat down at the round table he reserved earlier that day, waiting for Isabella to finish up in the restroom.Few minutes later, Isabella walked back to the round table and sat on a sit that faced his with a slight frown on her face.David leaned up noticing the frown on her face he asked. "What is the problem?""Its nothing. Let's go back to the meal, shall we?" Isabella simply answered but David wasn't hearing any of it."Isabel, I've known you so long and you can't still share your problems with me. Am I not good enough for you? Have I not being a good friend to you all these while?" David asked sounding pained."No, David. Again you are twisting my words. It's not what you think okay?" Isabella assured.
ADOPTED HEIR **Exposed** Writer's P O VIsabella stood up and grabbed her bag to leave once it was 9:15pm, David also stood up with her."Give me a minute, he told her and went over to the casher to pay the bills." He came back and found Isabella still waiting for him. It made him happy."Let's go," he said feeling proud. All the waiters and waitress eyes were fixed on them, they were all literally admiring them. It made David more proud of himself.He escorted her out to her car and watched her get in before saying goodbye to her.Her driver ignited the vehicle to life and turned to look at her."Ma'am?""You can go. Take me home." She instructed her driver who immediately started driving her away. David stood and watched as her car left.He felt really exc
ADOPTED HEIR **Meeting Dad** Writer's P O V"What are you saying, Kendrick? You met our dad? Like our biological father?" Kendra shouted in disbelief. Isabella had just left for the company and Kendrick couldn't hide the truth anymore. Especially since he doesn't know how to hide things from his own twin.He sighed, then he nodded twice."What?" Kendra shrieked. She wasn't still believing her ears."Okay, if that's true then where is he? Why is he not here? Why is he not coming to see us?" Kendra queried."I told him to stay away from us, I got mad at him." Kendrick revealed."No! You shouldn't, I mean.. if he is our father then we should hear his own side of the story. We should find out if he is a good man and if his not, we should warn him off us." Kendra reasoned."That's it, Ken.
ADOPTED HEIR **The Restaurant** Writer's P O VAfter their blood was taken, Nathaniel suggested that they have lunch together since it was already 12:30 pm. Kendra immediately agreed to it and Kendrick just followed them to a restaurant that was a little bit close to Queen's empire.They sat down and ordered their lunch, and then started eating. Nathaniel chatted with Kendra on a lot of things while Kendrick just stared at them feeling bored. It didn't take too long, they were done with their lunch and set to go.Nathaniel happily paid the bills, for him it was such a privilege and it was the first time eating with his 'kids'. The doctor had asked them to come back in two days time for the results before they'd left the hospital.The restaurant's door opened and Kendrick caught sight of Isabella. His eye's widened and he immediately turned to Nathaniel
ADOPTED HEIR **DNA Result** Writer's P O VNathaniel walked into the doctor's office with Kendrick and Kendra for the DNA result, he felt really nervous and anxious. His hands literally shook as he stretched them forth to receive the envelope the doctor handed to him.Nathaniel thanked the doctor before walking out to the corridor, Kendrick and Kendrick equally followed him out. They were both really nervous and anxious, especially Kendra."Do you want to read it first?"

ADOPTED HEIR **Meeting Felicity** Isabella's P O V"Kendrick! Kendra! I'm waiting," I yelled to them from downstairs. I don't know, but I think they are not too happy with this dinner plan. It's as if I'm ruining something for them with our dinner with my mom, Felicity."We're coming, mom. Chill!" Kendrick replied back. I sighed, taking my hands to my hips.I don't really know what's up with them. I want to meet this Kendrick's new friend who took them out yesterday, I need to know if he is a good person and not some pretender trying to use my kids.I'll speak to them about it. I don't really want to peer into their life, of course I should be concerned about their well being but I don't want to overdo it, else I'd have hired a secret guard to follow them around secretly.I understand they are of age,

ADOPTED HEIR **I love him** Writer's P O V"Mom. Dad. Why do you call for us? What do you have to say?" Kendrick asked although he already suspected what was happening seeing the light gleam on both of his parents faces."You know, the three of us have been searching for ways to make your mom forgive me."

Nathaniel announced."Really?" Kendra exclaimed."Wow!" Kendrick also exclaimed."Congratulations." Kendrick and Kendra both echoed together."That's a good decision mom. We are so proud of you and dad." Kendrick said, standing up to kiss Isabella who kept smiling on both cheeks."
ADOPTED HEIR **I forgive you** Writer's P O V"You want to kiss me." Isabella mumbled."Yes, I want to do a lot of things with you." Nathaniel admitted and without a second thought slammed his lips on hers.Nathaniel's kisses were fast and urgent, he kissed her like his whole life depended on it. He wrapped his arms around her and felt Isabella do the same while pulling him closer."Ahh," he groaned into the kiss. His hand quickly reached for his shirt and he started pulling it off. He successfully pulled off his shirt and watched as Isabella equally struggled to pull off her clothes.No, this is not right. Ah shit! She is not in her right mind, I won't make the same mistake twice. He shook his head to regain back his sanity."This is not right. I'll let you sleep now," he muttered and made to get of
ADOPTED HEIR **The kiss** Writer's P O VAfter dropping the call, Nathaniel looked up at the twins."It's my mom." He revealed."Yeah, I know. Our grandma, why aren't you introducing us yet?" Kendrick probed."I can't introduce you over the phone. I have to do that personally, maybe when I've settled my scores with your mom. I'll take you guys to see my mom and dad." Nathan promised."Okay, I'm excited to see grandma and grandpa. I thought you were referring to me, hope grandma isn't mad?" Kendra asked."No, she's not. You can go back to what you are cooking." Nathaniel smiled at his daughter.Later that night, Isabella came back and was served dinner by the twins. She sat in the dinning area alone afterwards.Why did they leave me? Isabella wondered staring around.
ADOPTED HEIR *Agreed* Writer's P O V"Can he stay with us mom? Please." Kendra pleaded and grabbed Isabella's hands."I beg you please, I want to take care of him myself." Kendra added staring hopefully at Isabella.Isabella looked down at the floor, she glanced at Nathaniel then moved her eyes."I...I don't know." She muttered and snatched her hand away from Kendra."Mom please...!""Ken, stop. Who says I can't take care of myself? I'm old enough." Nathaniel said. He saw how Isabella felt uncomfortable and had to involve himself. He won't mind staying at Isabella's house, that will be a dream come true for him but he doesn't want a situ
ADOPTED HEIR Writer's P O VBoth Kendrick and Kendra watched their mother in awe as she left for Nathaniel's ward room."I'll just take a look at him from the door." She had said trying to convince them that she doesn't care much about him. But her kids were already thinking otherwise.After watching her for a few seconds, Kendra ran after her. Curious to know her reaction when she finally sees Nathaniel.She met Isabella standing in front of the door as she said, her eyes darted into the room and she saw her father, Nathaniel waking up."He is waking up," Kendra screamed out of excitement and immediately opened the door, forgetting what the doctor had said.
ADOPTED HEIR **The accident** Writer's P O VFor days, Isabella has been receiving flowers from Nathan. She could always trash them in a refuse bin.She hasn't noticed him following her for the past one week and that relieved her a lot. She thought, he is finally giving up. Great.After working her ass off at the office, she got into her car and drove to an ice cream shop. Kendra had texted her earlier to get an ice cream on her way back home.After pulling up in an ice cream shop. She covered her face with a scarf and went into the shop. She ordered for two, one vanilla and one strawberry.After getting the ice cream, she returned back into her car to see a rose flower with a note placed on it.She kept the ice creams aside and took up the note, suspecting who the sender might be. She went ahead and opened the note.
ADOPTED HEIR **He is not your father** Writer's P O VNathaniel stared awake due to the sound coming out from his phone. He sat up on the bed and rubbed his eyes, he further searched for his phone and he found it on the table beside the bed.He picked the call up. "Hello dad, mom is not home yet." Kendrick spoke from the other side."What? Really?" Nathaniel asked standing up."Yes, she texted me last night and told me she wouldn't be back because she had something urgent to do at work. We have been waiting for her these morning but she hasn't returned. This is 7." Kendrick informed."Oh," he ohed and looked up at the wall clock."I'll drive to her company alright? There is no need for you to worry too much. I'm sure she's okay." Nathaniel assured."Hmm
ADOPTED HEIR **Pains** Writer's P O VNathaniel kept whispering his apologizes hoping she'll hear it and forgive him. He paused when he heard something break inside her office.Alerted, he stood up and ran in to stop her before she harms herself."Bastard!! Idiot!!!" Isabella kept cussing as she threw away all the paperwork that was on her table."Isabel! Isabel!" Nathan called for her to calm down. He went behind her and held her together.Shocked that there was someone around and the person happens to be the one person causing her her pains. She struggled to get out of his hold but he was just too strong."Let go of me, Nathan. Let go!!" She screamed at him."You'll have to calm down first." Nathaniel insisted."No!! Let go. Are you deaf?"
