ISABELLAIt's been two days now since Quincy has been sick. I've been taking care of him. I would always take permission from my family, saying I want to stay with Nina and they just allowed. "Do you need water?" I asked. He whines and turn to the other side. I couldn't tell if he's better or he's playing sick. "Quincy, don't you think it's taking longer than expected?" I asked. He turns around again and looks at me. He smiles then grab my hand, pulling me down to the bed. I fell on him with a gasp. He groan at the impact. "You've not given me my final medicine" he said against my lips. I pulled away. I want him to get the message that I don't want to do anything stupid. "What's the problem?" He asked. "You've been acting weird since you came two days ago" he rubs my cheek with his thumb. "You're sleeping with your aunt" I blurted out which I didn't mean to. I just wanted to say what's on my mind and it flew out of my mouth.He sigh. "How did you know that?" He asked. Is that the
QUINCYI kept on thinking about what Isabella told me about the anonymous message and I thought it was best for aunt to know. I wanted to go to her office but I decided it's better I go to their house. Her mother hates me but I just want to go. I drove into their compound and head towards the door. I hit the doorbell. The guards didn't say anything cause all this is my money. They work for me. I waited for some seconds before the door swung open. An angry old woman who suppose to be my grandma glares at me. "Why are you here?" She asked. Her wicked demeanor was prominent. She could have at least hid it."It's been a while, grandma" I said. She rolled her eyes and walked in. I followed in. The house haven't changed a bit, still the same as my Dad left it. "I wanted to speak to aunty" I said. She sat on the couch and took a sip from her wine.She chuckles. "Why would someone like you want to talk to my daughter, and fucking stop calling her your aunty, you mean nothing to us" she said
QUINCY"Alright, I'm on my way" I said through the phone. Mr Jalen was murdered last night. Somebody is really tailing on me. I rushed out if my house, I got into my car and drove straight to the police station. I parked my car and rushed out. I noticed the ambulance truck was still at the front. I saw as they carry his body out with a clothe on him. The breeze blew on the clothe, making a side come up. It was him alright, but something else caught my attention. The tattoo, the star shaped tattoo. Why does he have that tattoo. My eyes moved from him as soon as Charles walks up to me. My suspicions were correct. But I'm not gonna act out. The thing is, they both aren't the first person I'm seeing that tattoo on. "Mr Grey, you're here. Someone came in last night and killed Mr Jalen" liar. He killed him with his own hands. "Where are the camera footage?" I asked. He shakes his head."Someone formatted it" he replied. "How is it possible that in a station, someone just came in, kill
ISABELLA"It's..... really nice to meet you too" I placed my hand in front of her but she just eyed it and pass me. "Is she the reason you said that?" She grab his shirt. "I'll get rid of her so we can be toget-" the sound of the baby crying cut her off.I walked over to him and pick him up, the nanny helped place him in my arm. I don't really know how to do this. I started rocking the baby. "Shhh" The baby started laughing which only made me to start laughing too. I look up to see they're all staring at me. "Whose fucking baby is that?" She asked Quincy. "Carla, can you fucking leave?" Quincy asked. She chuckled, taking small steps towards him. "I'll go, but I just can't wait for your doom" she said. She walked by me and hit my shoulder, causing a sharp pain on it. The baby starts to cry. The nanny came over to me and I hand her the baby. He sigh then walked towards the stairs, I followed after him. "Quincy" I called. He went straight up the stairs and I just follow him. He reac
ISABELLAWe waited for the doctor to come out and tell us what happened. I was busy biting my nails, I can't believe what I just saw. I couldn't even recognize him anymore. He has bruises everywhere. Mr Chris, Nina, Ethan, Dad, Mom and I all waited to hear what the doctor have to say. They were really taking long. I got up immediately when the door opens. The doctor was not having a happy or relieved face on but just looks confused."Doctor?....." Dad said, Mr Chris by his side. I don't want to hear what he have to say but I am literally curious right now."Are you his guardian?" He asked. Mr Chris steps forward. The doctor sighs. "Mr Grey barely survived the surgery, he's out of danger, that's the good news" he starts. I gasp. "The bad news is that he's in coma and we don't know when you will wake up" he said. I wince at his words, tears streams down my face. Dad sigh. "Thank you doctor" he nods. I sat on the bench, mom walks up to me and sit down. She rubs my back. "He's gonna be
ISABELLAPlease let it not be what I think it is. He can't remember me? Me from all people. A tear drops from my eyes. "D-o y-you seriously not remember me?" I stuttered. Quincy looks at me for a few seconds. "Where you scared?" He smirked. I don't under- I frown in anger. "Quincy" I scolded and he started laughing. The doctor smiles and walks up to him. "Why would you play a trick on my this moment?" I pout. He pulled me on his bed. "I knew you would be here with me. I felt your presence everytime." He said. My cheeks glow up. He pecked my cheek then my nose. I can't believe he's awake, everyone needs to hear this. "if you'll excuse us dear, I need to examine Mr Grey here" the doctor said. I nod and got up. "I'll be outside" I said to him, he nods. I walked out grab my phone, I dialed Nina's number. "Hey Nina" I start."Hey Bell" she replied."Guess what?" I said in a joyful way. I heard a sigh from the other side. "Quincy is awake" I spilled."Shut the fuck up" she said. "I'm
QUINCYIt's been a week now, I've been working out and exercising but unfortunately I haven't been able to walk. But I can move my legs to a little distance with the help of the railing thingy. Day one was awfully annoying, I fell countless of times since I couldn't feel anything. I wanted to cry but I couldn't cause I don't know how to start the tears at that moment. The physician said I shouldn't added pressure, it's step by step.Day two was somewhat amusing since it was almost like day one. But the was Improvements, I could stand. But I couldn't move. I took some vitamins and some healthy foods just like the doctor said.Day three, I fucked the physician cause I was horny and needy, I couldn't get issy's contact and she didn't bother to come see me which was rude of her. Katie and Jeremy even came but she didn't. I thought I might have offended her. The physician helped to massage my legs and from there, it got heated and she ride me. She gives my legs good massages.Day four, I
ISABELLAI couldn't get out of the car, I have to find a way for Ethan not to notice. I want to be alone, but I don't know how to hide my emotions. I got out of the car and head inside, no one was in the living room so I head to the kitchen since I'm still thirsty. I entered the kitchen and Ethan was eating a sandwich. "Hey baby, back already?" He asked with a mouth full. "Hmm" I hum. He narrowed his eyes at me. I walked towards the fridge and pulled out a bottle of water, I gulp all the content. "Baby, are you okay?" He asked. He's always the first to realize something is wrong about me. We have been like this ever since I was born. "You know you can talk to me right?" That's all I needed to hear from him. I nod, tears gathering in my eyes."Can........" I sniffed. "Can I have......a hug" I asked. He stood up and walked over to me, he pulled me into his arms. I hugged him back. "You're the best brother anyone could ask for" I mumbled. He sigh. "Whatever you're going through, when
ISABELLA ****TEN YEARS LATER****I get why people prefer their kids in school for a long time. So they can have a peace of mind. Like the way I was before my kids driver brings them back from school. Kim and Kyrie walked into the house bickering about only God knows what. Kim is twelve now and Kyrie is Nine years old. Kai isn't back from school yet. He's eighteen now.I sigh. They both looked at me before rushing towards me. "Mom, Kyrie called a kid fat, she was body shaming" Kim said."Mom, Kim farted in the cafeteria" Kim retorted. It's been like this now ten years now since Quincy and I got married. Everything has been going well though. "You both should stop bickering, Kyrie, Kim is older sister, don't talk to her that way" I said to them. Kyrie squeezes her face. "You guys need to shower, then come down for lunch, okay?" I said. They just walked out on me. I sigh. "You guys better hurry up, Kai is babysitting tonight" I said. They both groan as they make the
ISABELLA "Isabella! Isabella! Wake up!" I could hear mom's voice but the sleep in my eyes was taking over me. I don't really want to wake up right now, I'm too exhausted for that. My body needs a lot of rest, it's like I should sleep on this bed for the rest of my life but I'm just wishing for death. I wonder why this woman is waking me right now, can't she see I don't want to wake up.I grab the blanket and cover my face. I heard a hiss. I pout my lips and when the sleep was about to take over, she pulled the covers off. I whine. "Get your ass up, you're getting married" it's like my body reacted to her words so quick that I sat up immediately and look around me. I looked at the time, it was five minutes to eight. What the fuck am I still doing on this fucking bed. A maid rushed in with a plate of pancakes and orange juice. I quickly started eating."Mom, why didn't you wake me earlier?" I asked. She scoff. I quickly finished the food and got out of the bed and rushed towards my b
A MONTH LATERCALEBI knew she wanted to surprise me, but I wanted to see so badly so I decided to surprise her. She's home, Lily is inside the house in front of me. I slowly open the door and quietly entered. I head upstairs, her scent lingered in the air. I pulled out the velvet box from my pocket and walked upstairs toward her room. I took a deep breath and open the door. "Welcome bac-" my words were cut of and my smile falls. Lilly was on top of a guy. She quickly got off him. The box in my hold falls to the ground. I stepped back in shock. "Caleb......I thought you went for a trip before I arrived and......" She trailed up when she realized her excuse is stupid. I turn around and rushed out of the room, I rushed downstairs, straight out of the house. I entered my car and drove off. I chuckled unbelievably. I can't believe she cheated, the sweet Lily I know is cheating on me right before I almost proposed to her. I was so foolish.I don't know, but my car took me to Katie's d
ISABELLA Why does he work here. I never imagined Jeremy to own a stadium. But I was enjoying the sight of the whole place. It had a plaza, a gym, mall, spa, and many more. I waited at the reception for him. The lady behind the counter which I assumed was the receptionist said he's very busy and I can't meet with him but I'm not giving up now.I looked at my watch and tap my feet. I've been here for more than an hour and this place is fucking big. I'll just have to wait till he comes out.Few hours went by, I got a call from Quincy. "Hey" I said tiredly."What are you still doing?" He asked."I haven't seen him yet. I'm still at the reception waiting for him but there's no sign of him......" I looked around, then I noticed a feature that looks like Jeremy but it was him. "I'll call you back, I think I just saw him" I hung up and stood up, rushing towards him. He was with many bodyguard. I rushed passed them but they held me back. "Jeremy" I called. "Please, I just want to talk to him
ISABELLAAfter having ice cream, we head back to the office and another surprise was here. Confetti everywhere along with balloons and a banner that says 'Congratulations'. "Congratulations!" Everyone exclaimed. Quincy smiled at them. Chris walked up to us with a grain. "Congrats boss, congrats Isabella" he hugs us both. I grin at him. I'm so happy right now. Now I know what it feels to be engaged. It's so exciting, it's like moving into a new level that you are yet to see, like a completely different word. It's just like it was yesterday we met again and I'm already engaged. KATIEI've been working non stop in this hospital, I just want a promotion or something. "Katie, please check on the patient in room seven" the doctor said."Yes sir" I replied, heading to the room. I picked up my pace, I don't want a situation that a patient needs help and I'm not able to make it there on time. I knock on the door then opened it. I shut the door behind me and face the patient. But then, I be
ISABELLAI thought he was taking me home but he was only taking me to his house. Why is taking me to his house? I stood in front of the living room, wondering what I was doing here.Till I finally got the courage to ask. "What am I doing here?" I asked him. He sat on the couch and stare at me with his leg on his lap. He looks so relax. "Let's go on a date after your brother's wedding" he blurted. This guy is just filled with surprises today. I wonder what have gotten into that head of his."W-why d-do you wanna go on a date with me?" Why did I ask that question. He raised a brow at me. Ms Mary walks over to get the kids. "Sit down cupcake" he said. I sigh and took a seat necks to him. "I thought about what you said this morning" he said. My heart beat increases. "I want to start all over again" he added. I smiled. "Really?" I said excitedly. He eyes me. I know he still has feelings for me. "But....." I frown immediately. "But what?" He asked. I sigh. "Do you love me?" I asked. Th
ISABELLAI never thought that that's what is on my mind for so long. Like I've always dreamt of getting married to him. I looked at him with widened eyes. He was also shocked with what I said. He chuckles. "Like, after everything, you think that I'll actually marry you?" He asked. That hurts a lot. He noticed it. "For fucking three years, Isabella. Even if you hated me, I still deserved to know that I have a child but you selfishly kept her away from me." He said. "Forgive me" I said."Take a day off, I'm not going to work anyways. See you tomorrow" Kate came out with Kim's Pink bag. "Everything she needs is in here" she handed it to him. Quincy gave me a glance before walking off. I followed behind him down the stairs. Mom walked up to us. "Are you..... taking her with you?" She asked worriedly. "Yes, I want to get to know my daughter" he smiled, looking at Kim that was sucking her thumb. Mom smiled at him and nod. "I'm sorry if I caused a lot of disturbance last night" he apolo
QUINCYAs soon as I got home, Kai got of his seat happily to come and hug me. I sigh with a smile. He had food in his mouth. We walked back to the living room. "Why so happy?" I asked. He grin at me, this kid."Because my uncle is my best friend" he said excited. "And, I have a sister" he spilled. What's this kid talking about now. "A sister......" I raised a brow. He nods. "Yeah, okay" I said, about to walk away but his words stopped me."She two years old and she leaves with mom" he said. It's not really possible, did she tell him that? "Who told you that?" I asked. He looks away from me."Anthony?" He said. I rolled my eyes, that jokester? He may probably be teasing him. I sigh and nod before walking towards the kitchen. Kai was following me, why is he following me? "So.....when are we going to meet my little sister?" He asked. I sigh and looked at the kid."There's no sister, son. Anthony was just messing around with you. Forget it" I said. It's really upsetting. I know that I w
ISABELLAHonestly, I couldn't imagine myself in a restaurant with Quincy as we wait for the Harry James he was talking about. He gave me some work to do when I was thinking it'll just be a peaceful brunch. I was filling some paperwork, it's actually his work not mine. I got tired and placed my head on the table. "Are you trying to sleep at work hours?" He snapped me back up. I eyed him with a glare."You should be happy I'm doing your work for you" I hissed. I grab the paper in my hold."Maybe you don't get what it means by assistant. You are to do whatever I ask for" he replied. I scoffed. So annoying. A man walks into the restaurant, he started looking around till his eyes landed on Quincy. He smiled before walking towards us. "Mr Grey" he spoke. Quincy looks up at him, he stood up and so did I. "Mr James, it's good to see you again" they shake hands. I smiled at the good looking man. "This is my assistant, Isabella Austin" Quincy introduced. I Shaked his hand."It's nice to mee
