“I need Venita’s contact,” Matteo revealed. “Do you mind keying the strings of numbers here?” He asked as he brought out his phone and held it out to her.Bella narrowed her gaze down at him. “What’s your plans?”She literally didn’t have to know everything, but Venita was her best friend, so she needed to know the man’s intentions for her before handing the contact over.A lot of guys have hurt Venita and even though Matteo was a very good friend to her husband, Richard, that wasn’t enough evidence that he knew how to treat women right.At least she has heard what his relationships in the past looked like. She hoped he wasn’t going to play with her best friend’s heart.Anyway, she trusted that Venita would be able to take care of him before anyone else came in to help her out.Matteo grinned at her question without withdrawing his phone back. “Well, all you need to know is that I have no bad intentions about her.”Bella shook her head. “I need to hear more.” That he didn’t hav
Richard didn’t know the clear intentions of the person who sent those photos to him, but one thing was clear, it can’t be for a good reason. He wanted Bella to be careful as it had come to his knowledge that she was being followed.Taking a look at the picture one more time, he picked up his phone to make a call.He had to tighten the security around his family until he returned. He didn’t care if the photo that was sent to him was harmless or not.For Bella to be stalked by a stranger didn’t have a good meaning.At the other end, Bella was unaware of what was going on and went to be peaceful. But the following day, before breakfast, the butler introduced her to two more bodyguards.“What is going on here?” She asked as her brows furrowed. “Sir made the arrangement,” the butler revealed. “You will have an added security every time you and the little miss leave the house. Also, he wanted me to remind you to let your bodyguards do their job.”Bella couldn’t react on time. Her
Bella was stunned beyond words seeing Richard sitting next to her. From their conversation the previous night, his flight was either going to land late in the night or the following day, so definitely she wasn’t even expecting it.She had felt bad and had to take care of Isla’s tantrums as well. The little girl felt betrayed no matter how she tried to explain things to her. Thankfully, she performed well on stage and didn’t carry any of that negative attitude there.Staring at this husband of hers who knew how to give a good surprise, her lips parted a few times before sealing up.The next moment when Richard thought she was going to pout unhappily, he saw a smile slowly appear at the corner of her lips as she turned her gaze back to the stage.Next, she sneaked her fingers with his and focused on the next announcement. Richard clutched their fingers tighter and equally turned his attention to the stage. They remained in that position without exchanging any words and watched
By the time Richard woke up, it was time for brunch. Bella and Isla had already had breakfast and carried a big glass bowl of fruits and went to the pool area to relax. When he came out to the living area and asked about them, the butler told him their whereabouts but first, he had to eat breakfast before going to join them. That was Bella’s instruction.A deep sigh escaped from his lips as he found his way back to the dining room to sit and eat. ‘This woman,’ he said to himself as another sigh escaped from his lips. It was already a few minutes past eleven in the morning, so he could skip his morning coffee and dive straight into food.Richard had to settle down to eat properly before changing his clothes and going to the swimming area to join the women in the pool.“Daddy!” Isla was so excited to see Richard that she was already gearing up to get out of the pool and run to him but Bella simply pulled her back.“Where do you think you are going to?” Bella asked with tight
Two days later, Debby learnt that Richard had returned to LA and had appeared in public once with Bella.She was so mad because her entire plans had been ruined.She was supposed to take care of Bella and remove her from her path before he returned but all thanks to her husband’s children coming to suddenly attack her and keep her in the hospital for more than a week.Even after she had been strong enough to leave, Mr. Rowland didn’t let her leave until every bruise had disappeared from her body. That was how determined he was to stop any rumours from flying.He had also taken care of the security so they wouldn’t spill anything plus the police as well.It was only after Debby was released from the hospital that she returned home and got her phone back and by that time, it was already too late.‘Fuck!’ She cursed in her head. She was so unhappy that she refused to have her lunch.‘How am I going to get rid of this woman with Richard by her side?’ She asked herself.She had rea
Venita and Caro giggled as they climbed the stairs to the private jet. They couldn’t believe they were going on such an expensive and interesting trip to celebrate Christmas.The flight attendants treated them like Royalties and showed them to their seats.Bella figured that the two friends would need to keep each other company during the flights, so she arranged for them to be given a space where she could join them for a chat as well.Richard finally managed to bring his father on the trip along with his doctor. The old man’s time was almost up and according to the doctor, he had only a few years left.Richard figured that he might actually help his father travel out to enjoy Christmas once even if he wasn’t in his best healthy state.Bella’s parents got onto the plane and were assigned seats before they were helped to secure their seatbelts.They were happy to enter their son-in-law’s private jet once again as their wedding had been the first time they ever got to experience
Bella stared at him wide-eyed. “You...”“Shhhh.” He shushed her. “If you don’t want us to get caught, don’t scream,” he said and continued to use his fingers to tease her down there.Bella whimpered. How was she expected to keep her mouth shut when he was doing those things to her?She wasn’t a tree but a real woman whose hormones and neurons were functioning properly.Unless she covered her mouth, she wouldn’t be able to hold back her moans, so she covered her mouth to stifle the sounds.She would have suggested for them to draw the curtains, but that would even attract more attention as everyone would know what they were up to.Fortunately, Richard didn’t torture her for a long time before letting her go. Also, no one left their seat during the event.Several hours later, they touched down in Switzerland and two luxurious Mercedes vans came to pick them up from the airport along with four security cars that accompanied them.Everyone settled in the big mansion that Richard h
Caro made a V-log at the end of their Switzerland Christmas trip and posted it on her page for all eyes to see.The majority of Bella’s fans knew she was her friend hence, some of them were already following her Instagram page since they got to see the fun side of Bella all thanks to her.So, while everyone was wondering what was up with Bella since the last time she posted on her page, they got notified about Caro’s latest V-Log and went to watch it.Two hours later, the video went viral as blogs reposted it. Everyone interested got to see how cute and interesting Bella and Richard’s marriage was. The side death glares from Bella and the grin on Richard’s face as he tried to pacify her after annoying the hell out of her.Richard’s playful side also got exposed to everyone, especially with the stunt he pulled after the group lost their way and ate ice cream before he called his bodyguards to come show them out.No one knew that millionaires could have this sense of humour.Of
