Isabella's POV When we were walking away from the place I once called home, everything my mom said flooded back to my mind. That you're adopted! You're not my biological child. We adopted you from an orphanage. I felt Christian whispering something to me but I couldn't hear anything as my mind was repeating the same phrases my mom uttered over and over again. Am I an orphan then? And I didn't know it for the past 28 years? "BELLA! Bella!" I heard a familiar voice call out and we all turned around and noticed Emma scurrying towards our way and stood infront of me, panting heavily. I stared at her blankly until she began to speak. "Err.. Aunt wants me to go with you.." When I stared at her with the same flat look, she added. "..As you're pregnant." I frowned but somehow nodded my head and she gave me a quick smile and was about to go back inside but stopped in her tracks when Christian called her out. "Where are you going now?" he asked and she cleared her throat. "Uh.. to pa
Christian's POV I opened my eyes slowly when I felt someone touching my face continuously and furrowed my brows when I saw Isabella smiling at me. "Izzy.. what's the time now?" I asked in a sleepy tone and she glanced at the clock before answering. "It's three in the morning." I blinked, looking at her with a frown. "And may I know why you're staring at me at this time like a ghost?" She smiled again, moving closer to me. "Yes. I'm a ghost. Your ghost." She stated, pressing her lips on mine and I wrapped my arms around her, pulling her closer but not too closer to hurt the baby. She slid her tongue, deepening the kiss and I slipped my hand under her t-shirt, which she stole it from me a few days ago, and my hand started to roam all over her body, starting to feel her bare skin and realized she wasn't wearing anything underneath. "Woah Izzy.."I groaned, pulling away and she looked at me with swollen lips. "I haven't even touched you and you're already wet." I breathed, smirking a
Isabella's POV "Izzy!" I startled when I heard Christian calling my name out loudly as he entered into my room. "What's the matter?" I asked in panic but sooner my face turned into a puzzle look when I saw his twinkling eyes. "You know what?" "What?" "My family is coming here day after tomorrow!" "Day after tomorrow?" I exclaimed as I wasn't prepared to meet them, I mean not yet. "Yeah." he nodded, smiling down at me. "My sister told me she can't wait to meet you." "No. She did not tell that." "She did." Christian stressed, sitting on the bed across me. "Well.. and they do not know about my pregnancy right?" I asked warily and he sighed softly before shrugging his shoulders. "Well, yeah. But when they got to know it, I'm sure they would be feeling nothing but very happy for me; For us." I highly doubt that. But I resisted the urge of saying it out loud as I forced out a smile and he leaned closer, pecking my lips. The door suddenly opened widely, revealing Emma and when s
Isabella's POV "What are you doing with my phone?" I startled when I heard Christian's voice and I looked up and noticed his forehead was creased in confusion and I let out a deep exhale, trying to be calm as I held out his phone. "Your phone kept buzzing with texts by someone whose name is.. Kendall." I told and he promptly grabbed the phone and when he saw the screen, he cursed pinching the bridge of his nose. I bit my inner cheek and remained quiet, waiting for him to speak. "Izzy, this is not-" "What I think?" I completed his sentence, raising my eyebrow. "Is that what you're about to say?" "Yes! If you think I'm cheating on you-" "Did I ever say I think that?" I questioned and he sighed as if he didn't know what to say. "Look Izzy, she's my brother-in-law's sister. She's kind of my friend-" "With benefits?" I questioned in a deadpan voice, crossing my arms over my chest and he sat on the bed across me, running his fingers through his damp hair. "Come on Izzy, you know I
Isabella's POV I was confused as hell when they all stared at me like I was an alien that escaped from another planet and landed into earth. But the little boy didn't seem to be that shocked as he gave me a small smile and walked past me and went upstairs. And to make the matters worse, the tall girl who had dark hair exclaimed at me."Maria!?" That's when all the gazes averted from me to her. But hold on, isn't that name belongs to Christian's late wife? "Kendall.." the other woman who must be in her mid-thirties and had faint resemblance to Christian, muttered. Oh.. so this is Kendall huh? "What the hell is going on here, Betty?" Christian interjected. "W-Well, is she your girlfriend, Chris?" Betty asked, looking at me and then at my baby bump and Christian nodded with a frown as the two women seemed uncomfortable for no reason. "Kendall, why did you utter Maria's name?" Christian questioned and Kendall looked a bit nervous as she glanced at him and then at me and then back a
Isabella's POV I felt my head spinning around as whatever she said was too hard to swallow. "Wh-What?" Christian stammered, looking at his sister narrow-eyed. "Where is the proof then?" Betty turned to look at me with a faint smile on her face. "Well, Maria-" Stop calling me Maria. "-have you ever seen any childhood photos of you? Have your parents ever shown them to you?" Betty questioned and Christian and I exchanged glances before I turned to her, answering. "Uh.. recently after a heated arguement, my mom told me that I was adopted from an orphanage." "There you go." she said, waving her hands in the air. "She didn't exactly tell you the truth. But she didn't lie eith-" "Why didn't she tell me that she adopted me from hospital? Why did she say I was an orphan?" I asked and Betty shrugged. "How would I know that? You have to ask your mom about that yourself. " she told. "but to be frank with you.. your mom too was involved in the crime so maybe she didn't want to entirely disc
Isabella's POV "OH MY GOD!" a voice shrieked, interrupting us and we all turned towards the owner of the voice simultaneously and I instantly realized who it was by observing the familiar facial features of that woman. "Mum!?" Betty called but the old woman's gaze was clearly on me as she stared at me wide-eyed with her jaw on the floor. "Wh-What.." she breathed as if she was trying to make a proper question. "..are you doing here?" "How did you come here?" Christian asked instead, standing up and quickly she turned her gaze towards him. "I called your P.A and he sent over a car to pick me up." she told and frowned at him. "But does it matter now?" She huffed, approaching my direction and her frown deepened when her gaze fell upon my stomach. "Are you Chris' girlf-" "She's your future daughter-in-law.." Christian announced in a quiet tone yet it was too loud enough for everyone to hear and we could hear how enraged he was, by studying his tone. "..Isabella White." "Oh.." she no
Isabella's POV I took a deep breath, still keeping my eyes shut. "Emma, I want to be alo-" "Mommy!?" My eyes quickly snapped open as I turned to look at Chloe who was.. my daughter and my eyes started to flood with tears as I outstretched my hands, urging her to come and hug me. She instantly ran towards me and hugged me not-so-tightly as she didn't want to hurt the baby and I kissed the top of her head before pulling away. "Mommy.. I want to- are you crying, mommy?" Chloe asked inspecting my face with narrowed eyes and I chuckled, shaking my head. "No Dolly.. it's just sweat, I guess." I said, wiping my dry tears away and she smiled, pointing at the little boy who was standing beside Emma. "He's Ollie. My cousin." She announced and I smiled at the little boy who was looking at me nervously. "Hello Ollie." "Hello." He somehow managed to say. "So mommy, can you play with-" "No Chloe, I'm so tired now. I want to sleep." I lied, because right now I wasn't in the mood to play bu
