Sebastien's POV

"Seb, how long do I have to wait?" Bella asked over the call.

"Just a few more minutes, honey. I'll be there soon." I replied.

We are on a cruise party and I'm planning to propose to her here. She has no idea about this plan. My best friend Emily is helping me with the preparations. I want everything to be perfect. I can already imagine Bella's surprised face. She will definitely end up crying with joy. My girl is very sensitive.

"Emily, I'm so nervous. What if she says no? Will she like this ring? Or should I change it?" I asked Emily while showing her the ring.

I'm so damn nervous now. She is the love of my life, and I want to spend the rest of our lives together. I know Bella loves me, too. But still, this moment is so special that I can't help feeling nervous.

"Don't worry, Seb, Bella will definitely say yes. And the ring is so gorgeous and perfectly suits her taste. There is no way for her not to like the ring. Don't be so nervous, man." Emily said while squeezing my shoulder a little.

"Do one thing, you go out and stay with Bella for a while. I don't want her to walk in before everything is done. And if we'll try to stop her, then she will have doubts that something is going on." I told her.

Emily left the room, and I continued with the decorations. The whole room was filled with rose petals, candles, and fairy lights. I'm doing it all within the room. Only me and her would be here. Bella doesn't like extravagant things, so I'm trying to make it as simple as I can.

Finally everything is done, now all I need to do is to bring her here. I looked at the decorations for the last time, my face lit up at the sight of it.

When I reached there, I saw a huge crowd. I have a bad feeling about this. God knows what happened here. I heard people whispering about some accident.

I saw Emily crying, holding the railing. I looked around to find Bella, but I couldn't see her. I held Emily's shoulders with both my hands.

"What happened, Emily? Why are you crying? Where is Bella?" I asked her, hoping my fear did not come true. I want my Bella to be safe.

She hugged me and started crying even louder.

"She fell down, Seb. When I came here, I saw someone push her down. I failed to save her, Seb. " she said in a cracked voice.

She died in Sebastien. Bella died. You are left alone here. You are alone.

I can't see anything around me. It's all dark. These voices will make me deaf. God, please stop this. My Bella can't die.

I started screaming out loud. Bella was going far away from me, and I was running behind her, screaming her name.

"Stop, Bella. Don't go." I screamed out loud.

My eyes opened, and I found myself in my bed.

My body is covered with sweat, and my breathing is fast. My heart is racing at a fast pace.

It was all a dream. After 4 years, I had this dream again. Why now? Maybe the guilt about sleeping with another woman yesterday is killing me inside. How did I lose control? Why? I was cursing myself for that.

I looked at the nightstand and took Bella's picture frame from there.

"Bella, I'm sorry, my love. I know what I did yesterday was wrong. I got carried away. I felt like I was with you. For a second, I completely forgot the presence of another woman. I thought as if you were there in my arms. Please forgive me for giving your place to someone else. " I apologised to my deceased lover.

My phone started to ring, it's the receptionist.

"Hello," I said as I picked the call.

"Good morning, sir. Miss Moore is here, I asked her to go away, but she is insisting to see you. " she informed me.

"Throw her out. I don't want to see her." I snapped.

I need to take a shower and get ready for the office now. I got up from the bed and went to the bathroom. As I turned on the shower, cold water ran down my body. After the shower, I wrapped the towel around myself and brushed my teeth.

I went through my closet and chose the outfit of the day. After having breakfast, I drove to the office.

As I parked my car, a woman was coming towards me. It's her again. Why can't she just leave me alone?

"Miss Moore, I'm not in the mood for this right now. Please leave." I said with a bored expression .

"You can't just fire me like this. You are mixing up professional matters with private matters. " she said.

"Well, this is my place so I can do anything I want. I'm not answerable to you, Miss Moore. " I mocked her.

"At least just give me a chance to prove myself. You can fire me if you find me incompetent and unfit for the job." She said with puppy eyes.

'Wait a minute, Sebastien. You are being such a fool to fire her like that. It would be more fun to hire her and torture her. Make her life hell so that she regrets messing up with you.' I thought to myself

I smirked at her and said, " Ok, Miss Moore. If you are insisting that much, I'll give you a chance. If you don't match the requirements of the job, then I'll fire you."

"Ok, sir. I'll try my best. Thank you for giving me this chance. " She said.

Just wait and watch Miss Moore. You'll resign on your own.

I've noticed that he skipped his lunch most of the time, so a home cooked meal would be the best option. I packed up everything in the tifin box and got my cab to work. "Good morning, sir," I said with a bright smile, and he just nodded without even glancing at me. He seems to be in a bad mood.'Be careful Eve, Don't end up making it worse rather than making up with him,' I thought to myself. "Is everything okay, sir? You seem to be in a bad mood," I asked him curiously. "Just get to the work, Miss Moore . You are not paid for worrying about my mood," he said coldly. Miss Moore? Seriously? Are we back at the formalities ?"What's the schedule for the day?" he asked. "Today you have a meeting regarding collaboration with a Chinese fashion brand.

You wanted to make her resign. It was your main aim from day one to irritate her and break her to the point that she resigned herself. " My conscience was mocking me."Yes, I wanted it. But....." I don't know what to say anymore. "But what??? Your purpose was to be her biggest nightmare, but you became soft to her. For a moment, you are being mean, then other moments you become soft . You are being bipolar Sebastien Robinson," said my inner voice."No, I'm not being soft to her. I don't even like her. I just hate her," I tried to defend myself. "Oh, just shup up, man .

    At Isabella’s villa, the whole family gathered to spend some time with the little devil. Bella and Sebastian had taken on the roles of doting grandparents, their hearts swelling with pride and joy. Bella cooed softly at Gabriel , who was seated in his bright blue playpen filled with colorful toys. “Oh, look at him! Just look at those cheeks!” Bella exclaimed, her voice high with excitement. She leaned down, her hands resting on the edge of the playpen. “You are going to be spoiled rotten, my little prince!” Sebastian chuckled beside her, a warm smile on his face. “And it’s entirely our fault. Can you believe he’s already six months old? It feels like just yesterday when he was born.” “Time really flies,” Bella agreed, her eyes sparkling with nostalgia. “And he’s already got us wrapped around his little finger. Look at the way he’s holding that toy. He’s going to be quite the little charmer.” As if on cue, Gabriel glanced up at his grandmother, his bright blue eyes gleaming. He gr

    David and Isabella were up early, both well acquainted with the routine that came with being parents to their six-month-old son, Gabriel. The soft coos and gurgles of their baby echoed through the room, filling it with a joy that only a child could bring. “Good morning, little buddy,” David said with a wide grin, peering down into the crib where Gabriel lay, his chubby cheeks flushed, and his big blue eyes sparkling with mischief .David reached down, gently lifting Gabriel into his arms, careful not to disturb his little onesie covered devil. Isabella entered the nursery, her hair still tousled from sleep, but her smile brightened the room. “Is it a good morning?” she asked, walking over to them, her arms outstretched. “Every morning is good with this little guy,” David replied, bouncing Gabriel slightly in his arms. The baby laughed, his tiny giggles was like music. Isabella leaned in, pressing a kiss to Gabriel's forehead. “Oh, look at those cheeks! He is so cute.” She gen

    It had been almost a year since Isabella and David exchanged vows, pledging their lives to each other in front of family and friends. The past months had been nothing short of blissful, filled with laughter, adventure, and quiet moments of love that reminded them both how far they had come. The villa they shared had become a haven of peace, where they could escape the world and focus on building their life together.Isabella sat on the edge of their bed, her hands resting protectively over her stomach. She could hardly believe it? after weeks of feeling tired and slightly off, she had taken the test earlier that morning. The result had left her stunned, in the best possible way.She was pregnant.The realization hit her like a wave, flooding her with emotions she had never expected.

    Isabella stood on the terrace of their villa, gazing out at the ocean. The rhythmic sound of the waves crashing against the shore had always calmed her, but tonight, she felt a twinge of anticipation. David had been secretive all day, dropping hints about a surprise, yet offering no real clues. He had asked her to dress up, telling her only to meet him outside at sunset. The air was warm, with just the slightest breeze tousling her hair. She smoothed down the flowing red dress she had chosen, wondering what David had in store. As she stepped down from the terrace toward the garden, soft music began to play in the distance, the melody familiar and comforting. Following the sound, Isabella rounded the corner of the garden, and what she saw took her breath away. There, in the center of the garden, was a beautifully set table, draped in white linen with glowing candles and a bouquet of her favorite flowers—white lilies and lavender. Tiny twinkling fairy lights hung from the trees above

    The estate’s sprawling gardens had been transformed into an elegant wedding venue. Rows of white chairs stretched out on either side of a long aisle, which was adorned with fresh roses, delicate ribbons, and greenery that swayed gently in the breeze.At the end of the aisle stood two grand arches, intertwined with flowers. One arch was for Alonzo and Abigail, and the other for Shelley and Miles. The arrangement was symbolic of the bond between the two couples, inseparable friends, now sharing this beautiful day together.David stood at the front, next to Alonzo and Miles. He cast a glance at his best friend, Alonzo, who was busy adjusting his tie for what seemed like the tenth time in the last five minutes. David chuckled under his breath."Relax," David said with a smile, giving Alonzo a pat on the shoulder. "You’re going to be fine."Alonzo let out a small, nervous laugh, running a hand through his hair. "I know, I know. It’s just… It’s all hitting me now. I’m about to marry Abigai

    The air was filled with an air of excitement, anticipation, and laughter as the girls gathered around the rows of gowns. Isabella, Rachel, Shelley, and Abigail were here on a mission—find the perfect wedding dresses for Abigail and Shelley.Isabella glanced around at the elegant displays of satin, lace, and tulle. "Okay, we have a lot of work to do," she announced with a grin. "But I think we’re more than up to the challenge."Rachel chuckled, running her fingers over the delicate fabrics. “Between all of us, I think we’ll find the perfect dresses in no time.”Shelley, who had been scanning the racks with wide eyes, finally looked up and nodded enthusiastically. “I’m so excited! I’ve been dreaming about this moment since I was a little girl, and now I get to do it with you all here.”Abigail smiled at Shelley’s enthusiasm, though a part of her still felt surreal about the whole thing. "I’m still wrapping my head around the idea of a joint wedding," she admitted with a soft laugh. "I

Isabella has also enjoyed her time with the girk gang- Shelley, Abigail and Rachel. Everything was going well. Shelley and Miles also got engaged recently. Alonzo and Abigail pulled up to the cozy restaurant nestled on the outskirts of town. The sky above them was painted in shades of soft pink and orange as the sun set, casting a serene glow over the evening. Alonzo glanced over at Abigail, who sat beside him in the passenger seat, looking radiant as ever."Ready for tonight?" he asked, his voice warm as he smiled at her.Abigail met his gaze, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "I’m ready. It’s been too long since we’ve all had a chance to just relax."Alonzo grinned, pulling into the parking lot. “Agreed. Plus, Shelley and Miles are always fun to hang out with.

    The morning sun cast a warm glow over the family estate as preparations for breakfast were in full swing. It was the day after the party celebrating Sebastian’s return, and though the night had been filled with joy and relief, today held a new sense of excitement. At least, for Alonzo and Abigail.They had spent the night talking, laughing, and savoring the reality of their engagement. Now, it was time to let everyone else in on their little secret.Alonzo stood by the large dining room window, watching as the family slowly gathered for breakfast. His heart raced in anticipation, not of nerves but of excitement. He turned to Abigail, who was seated at the far end of the table, catching her eye. She gave him a small, reassuring smile, her fingers absentmindedly brushing the engagement ring on her finger.“You ready for this?” Alonzo whispered as he approached her.Abigail nodded, biting her lip. “I am. But you know how they all are, especially Isabella. She’s going to be over the moon.
