View MoreHelen's POVMy eyes fluttered open and pain exploded in my head. I tried to place a hand on my head to manage the pain, but I saw that I could not lift my hands. My hands were tied to my legs with a tight rope. I was lying on my side and couldn't exactly say where I was, except that everywhere was dark and I was in motion. The last thing I recalled was walking into the bathroom with Isabella. Isabella! I thought and my eyes popped wide open. Where the hell was she and what had happened to the both of us?"Isabella?" I called out, but there was no response. I shut my eyes, trying to recall what the hell had happened and how I ended up here. A bump caused my eyes to snap open, pulling me out of my focused state. It was so hard to stay focused in this state, and I wondered where I was being taken. The fact that I could not recall a thing only managed to get me so annoyed and I wanted to run mad. "Who the hell are you and what do you want with me?" I hissed and banged hard on the ro
Blake's POV "I am so so sorry about this sir. I don't know how all of this had happened. She went out to the restroom with her younger sister and since Mrs. Robinson had given me and my men a firm warning never to follow her to the bathroom, we decided to keep our distance. I am still very much clueless on how the hell this happened." The head of Helen's security said to me the moment he walked over to me.I glared at the man and even though I could see the regret and pain in his eyes, I jerked him by the collar and pushed him into the wall. His negligence had just cost me so much pain and there was no way in hell I was letting this go as just some innocent mistake. He had hurt me, and I was going to make sure that he felt every ounce of pain I was feeling."You had one job to do, only one freaking job and you had to mess that up. Isn't that silly? I thought you were a professional, I didn't know that you were a big clown. God, I regret ever working with you.”“Just pray, pray with
Blake's POV My phone vibrated on the table, pulling my gaze away from the computer screen. I have been up all morning working. A glance at the phone showed that it was my private investigator calling and I quickly took the call, hoping he had some update on the activities of that bitch, Skylar."Tell me, what do you have?" I asked him as soon as I took the call. "Nothing good." He said, causing my belly to churn with knots. "What do you mean by nothing good?" I asked, confused by what he was saying. "Well, as of today, I couldn't find her." He confessed. A laugh escaped my lips. "What the hell do you mean by that? She is a human being, you have been keeping surveillance on her, so what the hell do you mean you couldn't find her today?" I blew hot, not believing what I was hearing right now."Sir, I know that you are angry and this isn't what you expected when you gave me this job, but you need to understand that my team and I are currently on top of this. I just simply called to
Isabella's POV I rolled my eyes in anger at Helen's friend. The bitch just couldn't keep to herself. All the suspicious glances she had been throwing my way all day hadn't gotten lost on me. She had a vendetta against me, and it must be because of what Helen had said to her about me. I was lost on the details of what my sister must have said to her, but I was certain that they weren't very nice for her to really be committed to embarrassing me in public like this. Well, I didn't care what she thought of me. All I needed was a few minutes alone with Helen and I would achieve my aim. "Elizabeth, Isabella is my sister and you need to learn how to respect that. Whenever you see us together, you need to understand that we need each other and not try to be nosy. Is that clear?" Helen said to her friend in a crisp tone.Elizabeth's face fell ashen and a mocking smile lined my lips. This wasn't how I had expected this to play out, but it was even better."Yes, I understand. I am so sorry i
Helen's POV I was all set and ready to go to the studio when my phone pinged with a message from my sister. I picked it up and read. 'Hey, do you mind if we spend some time at the set today? I would really love to watch you work. If yes, text me the address to your studio.' A bright smile lined my lips on reading the message. This was the best morning text anyone could send to me and there was no way I could say no to my sister. 'I will come pick you up from Mom and Dad's. I love you.'"You look really happy this morning." Blake's mom commented as I grabbed my lunch from the dining table. Blake had left home earlier than usual. He had a business meeting to attend to. He was trying to put things in place before our ceremony so we could get ample time for a vacation."Well, I received great news from my sister. I will see you later. Have fun." I beamed at her and walked out of the house. Isabella was waiting in front of Mom and Dad's house by the time I got there. The moment my ca
Helen's POV "Where the hell have you been? I just got off a call with Elizabeth who told me that you left the studio earlier in the day and moved your shoot to the next day." Blake said to me as I walked into the house. He was already off his work clothes and I could tell that he had been back home for quite a while now. "I am sorry for not informing you earlier, but Isabella wanted us to see," I said to him.His face immediately went ashen on hearing that. "What the hell do you mean by that? What did she want from you? Don't tell me you went to see that witch despite all she had put us through?"I rolled my eyes at his angry tone, knowing that things were not so bad to make him get angry. Yes, Isabella always seemed like the bad egg all the time, but now, she was trying to change and I was committed to giving her all the help she would require. "Can you calm down? At least, I am here with you in one piece. If she had wanted to do something to me, she would have done it a long tim
Isabella’s POVThe smile on my face quickly morphed into an evil grin as soon as Helen’s car zoomed off. I was just dropped off at my parents' home even though I didn't want to be there, but I had to keep up with my lies. Today had not gone as I expected, but I was committed to making lemonade out of the lemons the day had provided me with. All hope wasn’t lost and I could still achieve what I wanted in a few moves. It was quite shocking how easy it was for me to gain her trust. A few tears and a sob story and she had fallen so deep into my plans. Maybe after all of this, I would go ahead and pursue a career in acting. I was good. “Or Helen is just too stupid.” I hissed as I walked into my parent’s home. I couldn’t say if it was desperation to have my love or what, but whatever it was, it had worked out perfectly for me and I was going to use it to my advantage even more. “Isabella! You are back home.” Mom squealed as she pulled me into a hug after walking into the house. “Good
Helen’s POV“Fine, I would keep things between us.” I voiced out to her and clutched her hand. “I hope you are out of his house now. I don’t want you to keep on living with him. He would keep on taking advantage of you if you were still at his house.” A smile lined her face. “I have returned home, Helen. I could not take any more of his control. Thankfully, I have you on my side now, so I am certain that he would not try anything stupid anymore.” “Yeah, you are right. I am so happy that you are finally out of his clutches.” I sighed and relaxed my back on the chair, feeling much better than I had felt when I first walked in here. With a snap of my fingers, a waiter came over to our side and we placed orders for our meal. For the first time, I was paying for my sister’s meal and it filled me with a warm fuzzy feeling. I felt so grown up and like the boss ladies I usually saw in movies and read about in books.“So, what are you up to? I believe I must have pulled you out of something
Helen’s POVI was fully aware of my bodyguards as soon as I stepped into the restaurant. Just as Blake had said, they were professionals and had done their best not to seem so obvious, but I was fully aware of them and it made me shake. As much as Isabella hates me, she would not be able to do anything bad to me. There was no need for all the bodyguards that were here with me, but Blake’s words played in my head, “It was better to be safe than sorry.” I hadn’t even told him that I was coming here, and maybe being surrounded by bodyguards had given me the confidence to come out at peace. The restaurant was mostly empty, so finding Isabella wasn’t much work. She was seated at one of the empty tables by a corner, head bent. I couldn’t see her face properly, but I could tell that she was deep in worry. Taking gentle steps, I walked over to her. “Hey.” I greeted and she raised her head.Her eyes were red and smeared with tears. Her cheeks were puffy and she generally didn’t look good.
Today was the wedding day and Isabella's voice kept ringing in my ears, "Everything had to be perfect today." That was what she had told me last night.I went to conduct a final check of the wedding hall just as she had instructed me to do, to ensure everything had been decorated the way she wanted it to be.Everything had to be perfect, and not a single flower or chair out of place, if anything was out of place, Isabella would never let me live it down.She would even go as far as accusing me of trying to ruin her perfect wedding day and that couldn't be any farther from the truth, I was nothing but happy for her.She was my only sister, though we didn't have the same parents, as I was adopted from the orphanage when I was little, it still didn't change anything. Isabella hadn't accepted me as her sister yet, she never failed to remind me of where I was from every chance she got, but I would continue to support her in everything. I was more than happy to help too.I was still examin...
