Jennifer's POV"Who are you talking to?" "Just someone" he turned around and Continued with his call. "No, we are but it's complicated"I was disappointed that he was talking with another woman on the phone. It was really annoying that he was thinking about another when he was with me. I was already mad at him without having to hear his explanation because I knew that it was only going to boil down to the same thing that I was scared of.Watching him as he went on with his call, I sat on the bed and waited for him to be done so that we could talk. What we need right now is to talk and perhaps go on that holiday that Patricia was trying to put together with Rodrigo. I needed a break for all of these anyway and maybe it might not really be a bad idea to get on with it. "Hey," He whispered as he got off the phone. "I thought you were having your dinner" "You know I wanted to talk to you before that call came in""Really? Sorry, I didn't notice, what's this about""I think that can wa
Rodrigo's POVEven when she frowned, she looked so beautiful. As we sat at the breakfast table setting, silence filled the room, it was just the two of us who were alone, I dismissed who was standing around, I have noticed that anytime my bodyguard was around she always felt tensed so I thought about dismissing them to leave the dinning while we had our meal. Slowly Isabella was doing things to me that no other woman has ever done, she has managed to creep into my heart, I have nothing else that I think about aside from her, sometimes even when I was reading a book, she would infiltrate my head, I will try to push her out of my head but it was not just possible. She was different, her scent lingered in my nose and I closed my eyes almost forgetting that we were still having breakfast."Are you alright?" When that tiny voice echoed in my head, I quickly opened my eyes only to meet those familiar hazel eyes burning right through me."Yes I am alright, are you alright?""I am not the on
Isabella POV"I have to take this" He kissed me Once again. I would be lying if I said that I was not enjoying it. It felt so good to have him kissing me, when he kissed me, I felt myself coming Alive. That has never happened before, not even with Maxwell. However, it was a good thing that he stopped, otherwise I wouldn't have known what to do if he decided to continue. Going on this vacation with his family was something I was not looking forward to because we would be acting like a real couple and that meant that he had to be around me all the time, that was not what I wanted. I don't want him to be around me all the time. Rodrigo made me lose my will to speak, he was intimidating for me to look at. "A penny for your thoughts" When that familiar voice echoed through the room, I turned around and rushed up to her. She was the only one that Was allowed into the bedroom to come see me and the one that Rodrigo allowed me to have a close conversation with."Hey, what are you doing he
Jennifer's POV"You sound so sure but don't worry, you are going to be the one who gets to eat your own word" "You are out of your mind" he glared at me."You sound so brave, but you know what, any woman who gets to be with you should be ready to meet you for who you are, a player""You know what, you gave me hope"Isabella and I glanced at each other, we were confused by what he just said. "What do you mean that I gave you hope?""I mean everyone else says the same thing, if you can be with Marcello considering his temper and the fact that he is out of his mind sometimes then why can't anyone be with me"When the words left his mouth, Isabella almost burst into laughter but that wasn't funny at all. He was being pushy a lot and that is something that I hate. I know that Marcello sometimes can be Very annoying but I wasn't expecting him to be that blunt with his friend."You are an asshole right now""You are the one who started this, don't you think?""Whatever" I rolled my eyes an
Isabella's POVI stood in front of the mirror staring at my reflection, I could not tell what was real or not anymore. I looked breathtaking, I knew that with the way everyone stared at me as I left the shop earlier with Jennifer. Even Juan Carlos could not take his eyes off me, it was a good thing that I was married to his boss otherwise I would not have rode with him alone after we dropped Jennifer off at the house."You look so beautiful, I can't take my eyes off you"Without having to turn around, I could put a name to that familiar voice. He sent Butterflies crawling up my stomach, his voice was Intimidating and so was his looks. When he looked at me, I wished for the ground to open so that I could fall inside but that was stupid since sometimes I wasn't even sure that he noticed me. "Rodrigo, please stop"I was not in the mood to hear any more of his words, this dinner wasn't what I wanted. I just wanted to stay back at home and sleep or read one of those romance books that th
Jennifer's POVThe dinner started off so well, ever since I arrived at the Mansion, Rodrigo hasn't taken his eyes off Isabella or let her out of his sight, you can tell that he is feeling something he has never felt before for her. Isabella. "What are you doing sitting all alone?" I rolled my eyes seeing Juan Carlos sitting next to me on the dinner table. Everyone was having a good time, I seemed to be the only one who was left out since my boyfriend decided not to show up and could not do as much as text. I don't know what is wrong with him, I don't know where he was, he left before me this morning, the good thing was that he made pancakes before leaving with a note. "You should mind your own business, what are you doing here staying anyways, don't you have any woman to be flirting around with in this dinner""If you haven't noticed, this is Rodrigo's family and I am not in the mood to flirt with anyone. I have eyes only fit Sawyer now so no one should come to me, I won't be moved
Jennifer's POV"Harry" He glared at him but the unscrupulous fellow did not bother to let me go, he held me so possessively despite my struggle. I had a feeling that they already knew each other since Harry was an attorney for the Family and he knew all of the relatives and Grandchildren, he must have met Marcello a few times or they must have had a conversation."Why should I let her go? She doesn't belong to you, she is free to be with whoever she wants to be""She does not belong to you either" Marcello was quick to say."I belong to Marcello, I already told you that I am not interested in you, why are you doing this to me? I don't even know who you are""I don't need to know you to be in love with you, I just want you to give me a Chance"I knew that I had to get away from him else Marcello might start a fight and pull out his gun and I didn't want that, I didn't want anyone to see him as a monster. He is not one, he is just difficult but once you get to know him, you will fall h
Jennifer's POVTurning around, I was Shocked to see Patricia holding up a gun. Isabella stood beside her. She must have been surprised that she had fired a gun as I did. Though I know that Patricia still has her skills when it comes to firearms, she goes hunting sometimes and Other times she will be taking the shooting range. However, I never expected her to open fire in the middle of the dinner party, especially at my man."Get away from him you Bastard" she pointed her gun at Marcello. My blood boiled, I had no clue that she was going to do this, everyone was now whispering. Looking around, I tried to look for Rodrigo but it seemed as if he stepped out of the house and must have been discussing something important. "I am not going to say things again, the next bullet is going to go right through you, Step away from Harry"Standing up, Marcello stepped away from Harry looking at Patricia who still had her gun pointed at him, she had no intention of ever lowering it to the side."Ho
