Isabella liked Richard. It was effortless to fall for someone who was kind to her plus the added advantage of being handsome.

But in any case, her ex-husband was also very good to her at the beginning of their relationship before he changed after the birth of their daughter, and seeing Richard doing the same now, she was afraid that things were going to turn upside down.

It didn’t necessarily mean he would cheat on her, but given their connection through her previous marriage, it was hard to see them going far with this new relationship he wanted.

Regardless, Bella found herself being unable to say ‘no’ to him. Somehow, it might be because she secretly liked him, or because of her friends bugging her to give him a child or probably because of her daughter who seemed to love him as much.

A deep sigh fell through Bella’s lips as she glanced at their intertwined fingers. She stole a glance at Isla and saw how glued her eyes were on the screen of her phone before shifting her gaze bac

    Arriving at Isabella’s place, Richard carried Isla up to her flat and straight to her bedroom, and that marked the first time he was stepping foot inside her apartment. “Do you want some water, tea or coffee?” Bella asked from the kitchen Island as Richard walked into the kitchen after tucking Isla in.“A bottle of water will do.” He smiled at her before letting his gaze stray to his surroundings. He was surprised at how clean and tidy her apartment was given the presence of a toddler and wondered how she managed to keep everything together.In the end, his curiosity got the best of him. “Do you have a housekeeper?” he asked even though he would have known if she had one.“No.” Bella grabbed a bottle of water from the double-door refrigerator and spun around to hand it to him. “Isla’s nanny is the only extra help I have.”Surely, there is no way a nanny’s job would be to cook and clean except to look after the child she was being paid to. Richard concluded that Bella was the o

    Bella was not willing to divulge one bit of the details regarding her date with Richard the previous night yet.Her friends tried all they could by teasing and drilling her with questions but she remained mute for as long as she wanted. And they all ended up helping her to do one thing or the other in her home since it was a Saturday.One helped her to cook lunch and dinner. The second one spent time with Isla by helping her do her assignments and play games with her while the last one helped with the laundry.By the time it had clocked 11 AM on the clock, Caro started serving the tacos she had just made before calling everyone to the dining area.As for Isla, she was given one from it with healthy snacks and was left in the living room to watch her cartoons. But all eyes kept drifting to that toddler just in case she went around touching things she wasn’t supposed to.Now, this was the moment the girls had been waiting for.“Now, out with the gist already,” Venita urged impatie

    “Bella went through a very heartbreak before coming to this point. Do you want to experience her sacrifice?” Rosie inquired.Just thinking about how the one man who used to be everything to their best friend turned out to betray her big time and almost embarrass her on social media, Venita felt bile rise to her throat.“Honestly, I wouldn’t mind killing that kind of man to go to prison if I were to be in Bella’s shoes,” Venita confessed.The other girls glanced at her and shook their heads. They were kind of glad that Venita was not the one who went through what Bella experienced otherwise, they would have heard about their friends being convicted of murder without even getting a chance to hear the full story.A woman like Venita was impatient and strong-willed and no wonder she was still single.When the girls thought they had heard all the interesting and romantic parts of Bella’s date with her boss, she told them of how he sent her and Isla home in his car as his driver follow

    “Gerald, how many times do I have to tell you that I want a big wedding?” Kareen pursed her lips.She was devastated almost every day of her life with their wedding around the corner.A date hasn’t been fixed yet and no halls have been booked, but certainly, they were having a wedding the first weekend of the coming month just like they had agreed on.This goes to show that she wasn’t going to get married in a popular hall just as she wanted as most of them used to be booked in advance.“If you want a big wedding, you should get ready to bring your money,” Gerald fired back as he dumped the wedding magazine she made him go through on the sofa. He was equally tired of listening to her demands and having to remind her that he didn’t have that kind of money for her dream wedding. Kareen wants a big wedding, even bigger than the one Gerald and Bella had in the past otherwise she would be laughed at and would become the most talked about for the wrong reasons.She wanted the atten

    Richard arrived at Bella’s place in his Maybach before giving her a call. “Hey! I just arrived.”“Do you want to come up to my floor?” Isabella inquired as a half grin appeared on her face. She peeped behind her, saw the girls fussing over Isla’s outfit, and shook her head. “Um… I would prefer you bring her to me if you don’t mind,” Richard replied.Bella wasn’t sure if his polite rejection had anything to do with her friends’ presence in her home or not, but she didn’t mind taking Isla down to him. “It’s fine. See you in a bit,” she said to him before terminating the call. She straightened her back from the kitchen counter before turning around.“Isla, Uncle Richard is here,” she announced as she walked towards them in the living room. Immediately, the three women turned their gazes to her.“Your boy…” Caro was on the verge of revealing a secret information when Venita clutched her mouth thereby muffling the rest of her words. “You are just asking for a beating,” Venita whisp

    While Isabella was having a movie date with her friends and munching their snacks, Richard was having a good time with Isla.He paid for any game she wanted to try and as for the dangerous ones with age limit, he went with her.People at the game house actually thought they were real father and daughter given their lovely interaction but none of them knew it wasn’t the case.In the middle of their break, Richard got ice cream for them. “Do you have an iPad at home?” he asked her as he handed her a disposable spoon to eat her ice cream with. “No,” Isla shook her head. “But Mummy said she would get me one.”Richard didn’t say anything. After their break, he took her back to finish playing the rest of the games she was interested in before he took her to a phone store.“Can I get a tab for kids?” he requested. Just like that, he got Isla an iPad and asked her to show it to her mother only when she got home.Next, Richard drove them to the cinema Bella and her friends were seein

    While everything was working out for Bella, Gerald was struggling to stay afloat. Kareen no longer seemed like the same woman he left his family for and finally having the troubles up to his neck, he threatened her. “If you continue this way, I think we might have to call off the wedding.” Gerald’s mistake was giving Kareen the idea that he was thinking twice about their future even if he was having any doubts.Making such confessions openly only managed to bring the loss-course Kareen back to her senses. Gerald was beginning to seriously compare Bella with Kareen because was an understanding wife but this one with him wanted all the glamour. But he wouldn’t have minded that only if he could afford it.After all, it would be shameful for him to appear broke in front of his colleagues after his divorce from Bella. “Why are you taking things too far? I only demanded for hundred sticks of fresh rose flowers as my wedding bouquet, what’s wrong with it?” Kareen pouted.Deep in

    The moment Isabella saw the strings of numbers lit up on her phone screen, she knew who they belonged to.It didn’t matter that she had unsaved Gerald’s contact the moment she decided to end their marriage, she could still recognize since they were amongst the set of phone numbers she made an effort to learn back then.Isabella glanced at the wall clock in her living room. She could still spare five minutes to take that call even though she didn’t want to. But for the sake of Isla who wanted to speak to her father, she will answer it.The moment she answered the call and placed it on her ear, she heard Gerald’s rough voice. “It’s Isla’s birthday, please put her on the phone.”Isabella squinted her eyes. There was something about Gerald’s voice that spelt out ‘Rudeness’ clearly even though he added ‘please’ while making the request.He didn’t great, and his tone wasn’t even gentle. It’s like she expected that much from him, but for the main fact that he wanted something from her,

    Bella didn’t know what to say or how to feel when she saw the news. While her friends were talking about it, she stood up and walked away.Instantly, the chatter died down as the three women exchanged glances before quickly following after her.“Bella, what is wrong? Can you speak to us?” Rosie asked as she soon matched her steps.“I just want to be left alone for an hour. Is that not okay?” She said without stopping in her steps.Venita and Caro glanced at each other before moving their gazes back to her.“Actually, that is not a bad request. A little bit of privacy is not much to ask for but you see, the fetus in your womb is still unstable and the doctor wants us to make sure you are never left by yourself.”To avoid her slipping into depression, her doctor had given them an instruction to follow.Even though Bella might seem to be in a better mental state now than when Miriam died, the child she was carrying was still in danger.Bella’s friends were worried that she woul

    Richard was not the only one carrying out the investigation. He had the help of his best friend, Matteo.“How is it possible for someone who has been hiding from the police for four months to suddenly jump out to drive into Bella’s car?” Matteo asked. Even he didn’t believe that was an accident.“I’m glad this matter is under both government and private investigations,” Richard said to him.A thought came to Matteo as he complained about what intentions Kareen might have had.“The police are still trying to investigate where that woman has been hiding.”The question was, how did Kareen survive for four months without being caught on any CCTV camera or stepping out to buy anything?The answer was right in front of both men. It was very obvious that she had help.“That woman had help,” Matteo suddenly said. “I think I know who it might be,” he added with a straight gaze on Richard.There was only one known person from their side Matteo thought would want to get rid of Bella.It

    “Why did you take me back home?” Bella inquired as their car pulled up in the driveway.Richard threw her a glance before climbing out of the car. He managed to get her out and sighed in relief when Isla appeared.He let the little girl distract her until they got into the master bedroom before sending her away.“Bella, I’ve got some bad news to share,” He revealed as every fake emotion disappeared from his eyes.He looked a little sad and that scared the shit out of Bella. Plus he called her by her name.“Did anyone die?” She managed to ask as she felt her heart racing in her chest. She almost couldn’t breathe properly.Richard didn’t answer that question. He let out a deep sigh, confirming her fears.Bella quickly rose from the bed as her eyes turned red. Tears formed in her eyes as she stared down at him.“Who died?” She asked as a tremor wrecked her lower lips.A deeper sigh escaped from Richard’s lips as he rubbed his hands together. “Miriam got into an accident with you

    How was Bella supposed to answer the question she hasn’t confirmed yet?Mrs. Cooper couldn’t understand the thoughts running in her head as they continued to stare at each other, but she could see the signs, so she raised her brows, prompting Bella to answer.“I think so, but I haven’t confirmed it yet.”She and Richard started trying for a child in December and if she was pregnant, the signs and changes to her body would have started by now, especially depending on the date it happened.“That’s good news then! I shall help you get some pregnancy test kits,” Mrs. Cooper announced and sat down next to her, taking her hand gently with her eyes filled with gratefulness.“Please don’t mention any of this to Richard. I only want to break the news to him when it’s been confirmed. I don’t want to raise his hopes high and then flop it if the result turns out to be negative.”Even though Bella was still mad at him for no reason, she cared about his mental health and wouldn’t like for him

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.
