“I’m sorry to disappoint you, that’s what it means,” Bella insisted.

These days, Bella was after setting boundaries and finding peace. If there was anyone going to be a threat to her mental health, moving them to the sideline shouldn’t be a problem.

There was a deafening silence hanging in the atmosphere. This wasn’t the first time Bella was saying ‘no’ to her ex-mother-in-law.

The first time it happened, Bella was involved in a fatal accident.

“Isabella, listen. I don’t care what you see me as. I am not Gerald, so don’t treat me the same way as him. I have a very busy schedule and I believe that I don’t need your permission to see my granddaughter. Isn’t that right?”

Bella nodded. “You are right. You don’t need my permission to see your granddaughter. But you have seemed to have forgotten that I have a job and my own schedule. Also, I am no longer your daughter-in-law, so I don’t have to answer to you anymore.”

Bella was showing Mrs. Fallon that she was no pushover. If she had

    From that moment onwards, Bella refrained from ignoring Richard openly."Would you like some more mashed potatoes?" she inquired when she got up from her seat to serve herself more food."Yes, please," Richard replied and lifted his plate for her. She took it the next moment and filled it with more dishes she knew he would like.During dinner, Bella's parents left business out of the conversation and talked only about family and happy memories.Seeing how well her parents were interacting with Richard, Bella had mixed feelings about it.Of course, she would like for her parents to like the man she was dating, but on the other hand, she was scared for their reaction when they found out that Richard was Gerald's uncle and they were seeing each other.Bella was so distracted by those thoughts that Richard noticed.He answered Mrs. Smith's question before putting his big strong hand on Bella's thigh. There was no one sitting on their side, so he wasn't afraid of being caught.Bella felt t

    Richard deepened the kiss by pressing her body to his. Slowly, he released her lower lips and met her gaze briefly.“I wish I could have every fibre of you right now,” he confessed in a breathy tone.A small smile tugged at the corner of Bella’s lips as she rested her face on the crook of his neck, letting her hot breath fan his neck.“It’s cold out here,” she reminded.“My bad,” Richard confessed. “I forgot to turn on the heater.” Right as he said that, he released her from his embrace to turn the heater in the car.Winter was truly not the best season to pounce around without warmth and he had totally neglected that with his need for her clouding his senses.Returning to his initial position in the back seat, he gathered he in his arms as his fingers found the hook of her bra to undo it. But at the dying minute, Bella clutched his arms, stopping him.“You won’t let me see them?” he asked with a hint of teasing in his gaze. She shook her head in denial. “Not today.”Richard’s

    “You will see,” Richard responded before pushing her back to rest between the car door and the seat.But when he somehow managed to get one of his knees down on the car floor and grab her legs, her eyes widened in realization and excitement.He was going to give her a head.This was too intimate, but she could neither refuse nor resist him. Her desire to satisfy her raging hormone was far greater than the little embarrassment she thought she would feel when he ate her pussy.Richard went on to lift her dress and grab the hem of her lace panties to pull it down to her heels. Bella felt the warm air hit her directly and attempted to close her leg. She was for a fact grateful that she had chosen to impulsively get a wax done two days back otherwise, she would never let Richard put his face between her legs.Just then, Richard squeezed the lace string in his right hand and brought it to his nose to inhale the scent of arousal left on it while meeting her gaze.“You smell so heaven

    “What took you so long?” Bella’s mother inquired worriedly as soon as she stepped inside their apartment.“Oh… we talked about work. We have an annual company party coming up next month,” Bella replied.Although Bella lied about the conversation, of a truth, there is an ongoing plan for an annual dinner in their company.Bella’s mother gave her a casual look before dropping the matter.When no one was looking her way, Bella licked her lower lips and let out a sigh of relief.She was lucky to have checked herself properly in the mirror inside the elevator to arrange every misplaced strand of hair before coming up to her parent’s apartment. “You helped with the dinner, go ahead and have your bath I will take care of Isla for the night,” Mrs. Smith encouraged, ushering her to her bedroom.Bella smiled. “Thanks, Mum.” She was happy to get another load off her since she couldn’t wait to have her bath after Richard made her drip wet like never before.She was already uncomfortable

    The next morning, Bella woke up to Richard’s text which he had sent the previous night.“Hey, Pretty! I just met up with Mateo.I want to remind you that you are the best thing that has ever happened to me.Don’t think too much about me tonight.I promise to give you the best orgasm you’ve ever had the next time you come to my place.Sweet dreams, Babe!Bella was smiling from ear to ear as she read his message over and over again as she couldn’t get enough of it.It was a shame she missed that pretty text that made her heart flutter. She had been so satisfied last night that she immediately slept off the moment her head hit the soft pillow after showering.Still, it was a good deal to wake up to that beautiful message, and it made her recall the events of last night with him fucking her with his tongue.It was such a beautiful experience she wanted to have a repeat any time soon.‘Maybe receiving a head on the kitchen counter wouldn’t be such a bad idea,’ she thought as she gi

    Bella could sense that her parents had been talking about her, and she didn’t even want to find out about it.She had a feeling that it would be a trap, so she poured herself an orange juice in a glass and left. “Do you think she heard us?” Bella’s mum asked her father a few seconds later. He shook his head. “I don’t think so.”Just to be sure, Mrs. Smith waited for a while before nudging him by the shoulder. ‘What do you think about Richard?”“How?” Mr. Smith asked, raising a questioning brow.“I mean, him and Bella together. I have noticed how he always honours our invitation for Thanksgiving dinner when he has his own family he can spend time with. I think he likes her.”Mrs. Smith’s conclusion gave her husband the same idea that Richard might like their daughter. “But do you think Bella sees him in the same light?”Mrs. Smith shrugged. “We will have to find out by sounding her out.”***Just as planned, Richard went home to see his aged parents with his convoy.Since th

    Richard couldn’t seem to let that memory off and kept emphasizing it. It was no wonder his dreams of leaving home prompted him to build successful businesses. Bella made Richard understand that she was an only child and that meant that she did most of the work at home.“Washing plates was the least chore I did, so don’t complain,” she chided lovingly.Bella and Richard ended up talking about their childhood and dwelling on those memories until someone came to knock on Richard’s door to remind him of dinner, putting an end to their wonderful conversation.“I’m sorry, Babe. If I don’t join them for dinner, my mother will start crying again,” Richard announced.The longing look in his gaze depicted just how much he hated to put the phone down during this interesting conversation, but there was not much choice left.“That’s fine. Go ahead,” Bella urged him. As much as she would loved for them to chat on, she didn’t want to steal his family time away. “Aren’t you going to ask me

They have both been very busy with work and meetings, especially with the planning of their company’s annual dinner night.At the same time, Richard’s birthday was coming up soon and Bella was very keen about making that special day memorable for him so on this particular weekend, she hosted a Girls Night at her penthouse and invited her best friends over.She needed help with ideas on how to surprise Richard on that day. And because she had good friends who were at her beck and call; willing to help her out with whatever she needed, they answered her call immediately.With open arms, Bella welcomed her friends in.

    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

    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.
