When Izabelle and Rosie left the restaurant and got to Marcel’s condo it was already past twilight and they found him on the couch waiting for them to return as he wasn’t doing anything. Rosie ran to her daddy. “Daddy,” she hugged him tightly and he carried her on his thighs. “Daddy Sie Sie missed you.”“Daddy missed you too. How was your outing with Aunt Ruby?”Rosie smiled. She turned around to see the bags of gifts that the servants were carrying into the house. “Aunt Ruby got those for me.”“That much? She must really like our Sie Sie a lot.”The child excitedly nodded. It was a known fact that Ruby loved her a lot. She was sure that everyone knew about it. She was loved by almost everyone. “That’s good then.”“Daddy, I’ll go check my gifts in my room. I want to know what Aunt Ruby got for me,” she climbed off her father’s thighs and ran into the house to her room where her gifts were being kept. After the child left, Marcel turned to look at Izabelle who was having a glass of wa
“You heard me. All I'm saying is that I'm going to look for someone who would value me. I'm going to stop all of these I have for you for the past ten years. I'm going to bury all my feelings for you and move on with my life,” Izabelle paused for a while and chuckled. “I guess I'm the stupid person who didn't think about all of these things before. Thank goodness that Ruby made me understand it all.”“You should stop saying all of these and go to bed Izabelle.”“Maybe I should just stop this act here and now and leave your world. Maybe I'll be fine then. I just want…”Before she could complete her sentence, she felt his warm lips descend on hers and he kissed her roughly even after she protested. His hands got hold of hers and slowly pushed her till she got to the wall. His hands were on her cheek holding her lovingly as they engaged in a kiss. Izabelle could feel her tears stream down her cheeks as Marcel kept kissing her. Why was he doing all of these now that she had finally decid
I don’t have good health and Rosie too. I didn’t want to have you taking care of me and our daughter. And those years, I clearly felt something. It was obvious I liked you but I didn’t want to bother you with anything. I wanted to make you have a normal life like every other woman out there. Being with me will only bring you problems.”“But now that it’s already messed up and I can’t resist or let you go, I can’t help but want to bother you.”By now, her tears were already flowing freely as she couldn’t help it and she stared at him as if she couldn’t believe all that he was saying. Her head shook in disbelief. How could this be? After so many years he was finally saying all that she wanted without leaving any word out. He was finally satisfying her ears by telling her his feelings for her. It was so satisfying that she couldn’t help but cry the more. “Stop crying, hmm? I promise I’m telling the truth. I do want to be by your side forever. I know I’m a dick for making you wait for so
“Where would you like to go tomorrow,” Marcel asked Izabelle as they cuddled on the bed. They had taken their bath after their hug and had worn their pyjamas before proceeding to lay on the bed. As a new couple, Marcel had brought her closer to him. Something he had always wanted to do. Having her close when they sleep. Now that he could do it, he brought her closer to him so that not even a sheet of paper could come between them. Izabelle did the same too. She buried her face in his chest and wrapped her hands around his waist breathing in the scent of his hard body. She could stay like this forever. Who would have thought that they would become a couple after her conversation with Ruby? Right! Ruby. She should probably call her soon and notify her about this new update. Ruby would probably scream her heart out when she hears that her friend and Marcel are finally a couple after so many years. She would scream and shout for joy. Izabelle couldn't help but smile after picturing her
She immediately pushed his head away. “I…I have morning breath.”“I don't care.”He tried to dive in again but she held his head away. “It's morning already. “Does it matter? Give me your lips, Izabelle.”She finally gave in and gave him and seeing that, Marcel immediately captured her lips in his. He held her head and her waist tightly and pressed her body to him. “Mmm,” Izabelle moaned as she couldn't breathe. The only thing he did was release her for two seconds before going in again at a fast pace. She couldn't help kissing him at the same pace as she held the back of his head. She kissed him with everything in her and even more when she remembered that this was what she had been envisioning in her mind for the past ten years. Good morning hot kiss. Now that she was finally getting it, she was embracing it with open hands. As the kiss grew even more intense, she clutched to him more, and her hands tightened around him. The kiss was so hot and when they finally broke away she
“Did you have your bath already,” Izabelle asked the child as she finally broke away from her father to her mother. She hugged Izabelle tightly as if they haven’t seen each other for a long time. She must miss sleeping with her mommy and bedtime stories with her. These days, she hasn’t been able to do that. “Yes Mommy. Grandmother helped me with my bath,” the child climbed down from the big bed carefully and stood on the floor before turning around for her parents to see what she was wearing. She gave them a princess twirl and giggled. “Mommy, Daddy how is my dress?”She asked. She was wearing a blue floral dress one that her grandmother recently got for her and it was one of the best dresses that she has. Izabelle stared at the dress and frowned. She does not remember Rosie having such a dress. She hasn’t bought any dress like this for the child. How then does she have it? It was a beautiful blue dress that she liked and now wondered why she hasn’t thought of buying something like
“Sie Sie. Didn't run too fast,” Izabelle instructed as Rosie removed her hands from their hold and ran forward to the water. They had decided to visit the beach first and have fun before heading towards the amusement park. It seemed like a great decision that they took because the child really loved to be there. Just as they got close to the waters, she removed her hands from her parent's hold and ran forward. “Mommy. This is cool,” Rosie giggled as she took steps backward after getting to the water. If anyone sees the child right now, they would have no choice but to admit that the child really looked cute doing all of that. Her long blonde hair was tied in pigtails and wrapped like a donut. She liked the style that her mother had chosen for her. It made her look super cute. “Don’t go that near to the waters, Sie Sie,” Marcel warned. “Daddy, I like it here.”“Still, be careful, okay?”“Okay,” she replied in her tiny little voice and proceeded to continue her play. Marcel and Iza
“This is so nice. I love this place,” Izabelle said. They had already left the beach and were already at the amusement park where they were going to have a lot of fun. They walked to the place of fun with their hands holding each other. Rosie was walking in the middle of her parents and they held both hands. They were like a lovely family that they are and she prayed that her parents get married already and give her a baby brother or sister to play with. Then, they will be a big happy family. “Daddy, are we going to get on the roller coaster?”Instead of Marcel who was supposed to answer the question, Izabelle did. “Why not? Who comes here and does not get on the roller coaster? We are all going to get in. It's been so long since I played.”Marcel frowned. “I thought that was only for children. How come you and I are also entering? The roller coasters are for children only.”“Who told you they are for children only? You don't just know. We all are going to get in. Trust me, it's fu
~Eight Months And Some Weeks Later~“You know I'm not going to get into that thing, honey,” Marcel complained as he looked at the two of them. The two most important people in his life. Izabelle and Rosie. He was standing in between them and they were peering at him, begging him to do their bidding. Having two women in life is so stressful. He can't wait for the baby in Izabelle’s womb. The family of three was in a park. They came to have fun as it was a holiday and the mother and daughter duo were begging that Marcel get into the roller coaster with Rosie as her mother was heavily pregnant and would not be able to accompany the child up there. But Marcel was still traumatized from his last time getting on a roller coaster and had sworn that there was nothing in this world that would push him to get up there again. “Please, Daddy. Just this one time. I promise it won't be as bad as the last. Don't be afraid. “Who says that I'm scared? I just don't like how it moves so fast. Daddy i
Seeing that his boss’s wife was not fine, he decided to call a doctor for her. “Uncle, are you calling a doctor? Mommy is unwell.”He looked at the sweet little cute girl that he still couldn't believe was his boss’s daughter. Like, how come he has had a daughter all these while and he was only aware of it a year ago? “Yes, cute. Didn't worry, your Mommy is going to be fineThe little girl nodded and ran into the bathroom on the other side of the room. She came back with a bowl of water and a small towel in her hands. Knowing what she wanted to do, he smiled and rubbed her head. She was a smart little child just like her parents. “Mommy, I'm going to dab your face with the towel,” she told her unconscious mother. She had always noticed that whenever she was unwell and her temperature was high, her mother would simply dab her head with a towel and clean her body. This sad the second time that her Mommy was unwell since this year and this was the second time that she would be doing t
Izabelle finally woke up on the third day after she was declared pregnant. The doctors had said that she passed out from the shock and would wake up anytime soon but it wasn't until the third day that she woke up. When Izabelle opened her eyes, everywhere was blurry to her and she tried to look around but it was blurry to her. “Mommy, you're awake.” She heard Rosie’s voice and her tiny footsteps as she ran towards her. She also heard some other footsteps rush to her and when they were finally right beside her, she was able to see them clearly. “Izabelle, you're awake.”“Izabelle.”“Pl…please help me sit up.”Both Ruby and Mrs. Wilson helped her sit up on the bed and she ass finally able to see everywhere clearly. She was in the hospital. What was she doing here and when did she come here? Then all of a sudden, all the memories started flashing into her head. From her grandfather and then to her pregnancy announcement. God. All of this was happening too fast. Right! Her grandfather.
He was now suffering from both the cold from sitting in the rain for a long time and from the fall from when he was trying to pick up his phone. “I got here immediately I heard the news,” Ruby finished. “Where is Jared? He isn’t here?”“He stepped out a bit to make a call to his wife. He was in the office when he heard the news too.”“Goodness. I pray nothing happens to Grandfather. I don’t know what to do if something happens to him.”Ruby held her hands and patted it. She was trying to console her friend and make her feel alright. She just returned from Thailand in the hope of starting a new life and now this? This was depressing. She didn’t even tell Izabelle all that the doctor said. The doctors had said that the old man’s condition was so bad and they weren’t sure that he was going to make it alive and that they just had to pray that he eventually made it out. “Izabelle.”She turned to the side to find out who it was that called her and when she saw that it was Jared, she imm
~Three Weeks Later~“Marcel, what are you doing?”“Just a little okay,” Marcel said as he started kissing her from her neck downward. “We’re up in the air.”“Doesn't matter.” He continued kissing her, not listening to what she had to say. She was only trying to tell him that they were not home to be doing this kind of thing. These few weeks that they made up, he has been all and about her having her from morning to night all in the name of making up for the months that he wasn't here. Now, they were in a private jet traveling back home. Well, a lot has happened since the day his grandmother came to yell at her. After they settled, she had convinced Marcel to work hard to get his company back and he has been working from home since then. Home! Right. He moved in with them. Thinking about that made her smile. They were back to being a happy family and she couldn't ask for more. She just prays that nothing comes in between her happiness this time as she would be very sad if that were
The old woman turned and got face to face with her grandson which she quickly ran and embraced. Marcel got her away from him and rushed to Izabelle who couldn’t bring herself to face him. She turned away from him as he tried to look at her wound. If he shows any utmost care to her right now, she is going to melt and cry in front of everyone and that would be so embarrassing. She doesn’t want anyone to see her as weak or something. “Izabelle, look at me. Are you alright?”“I’m… I’m fine.”“No, you’re not. Grandma just hit you with something hard. I know what’s in that bag. Come, we have to look at your wound. Please look at me.”She couldn’t bear it any longer and let him look at her wound that had swollen a lot giving her a weird face. She felt like yelling right now because her anger was still at its peak and it would remain like this until someone calmed her down. “Calm down, okay. Look at me. Breathe, in and out.” She did as Marcel asked and was finally able to look him in the e
The old woman looked at the place that they were in. It was in front of a store with its goods displayed outside proudly. It was better than the other stores that she had seen while coming here. She stepped into the store and looked around until she heard a loud voice coming towards her. “Welcome. We have all that you wa…… Old Mrs. Wilson?”Izabelle exclaimed in shock as she stared at the woman standing in front of her in her shop. What on earth is this woman doing in her shop and who even informed her that she lives here? Her eyes were so wide in shock that if care was not taken, they might just pop out because like… What are they doing here?“Why are you so shocked seeing me here?” What kind of question is that? Why is she so shocked? Does this old woman really have no idea why she is shocked? It was obvious she never expected her to be in her today. It was more shocking than ever. “Forgive my manners, old Mrs. Wilson. I was just shocked seeing you here.”“I guess so. Well, that'
“I am tired of what your father and grandmother are doing. They both want to kill me in this mansion.”“It's going to be okay, mum. I'll do something about this.”“Please do, son. Please come and make the company stand on its feet again without getting married to anyone. They all think that they are wise enough to use someone to their advantage. I don't like that girl to be your wife anymore. Their true character has been revealed.”“Mum, about that…. I'm putting it on sale. I'm not changing my mind about that.” Mrs. Wilson ran her hair through her jet black hair that was messy from her not taking care of it for days. Her hair and even her head were messy. The marriage that she was in was also messy. Messy things around her. “Why are you doing this, Marcel? You want to put the company on sale? Don't you remember how hard it was for us to build the company to how it is now? We have done a lot for it especially you and all you want to do now that it's at stake is to give it out on sal
“You want us to forgive him already? You’re no longer angry at him?” “It’s not like that. I just feel pity for him after all, Mommy is the one who always says that we should forgive and forget.”Now, even her daughter was asking for her father to be forgiven. What was she going to do about this? She was scared of her heart getting broken again because if anything like what happened months again repeated itself, she wasn’t sure that she would be able to handle it. This drags her back to the question Marcel asked her before he passed out. What if she finds out that she was the one who misunderstood everything that day? What then was she going to do? If that was the case, she was clueless about what to do. If she gets out of the room now, she’s going to call Jared and ask him to get help from people so they can get the CCTV footage of that day. She wanted to see things from the people she trusted, not someone that she no longer trusted. “Mommy?”“Yeah?”“What are you thinking about?
