Everything happened in a blink of an eye, Alicia who was trying to kiss Alex found herself on the floor when he pushed her off. She hurt her waist, she cried out loud but Alex didn't even pay any attention to her.He rushed out of the mansion and took his car, hoping to find Isabella outside. Alex drove out in a jiffy, Isabella was gone and he noticed the taxi from a distance.The estate barely had taxi's coming in, maybe she had booked him beforehand. Isabella was such a smart woman. How could he just hurt her that way?Alex was hating himself for doing that. He drove as fast as he could to catch her. The little taxi was no match for his Mercedes Maybach in speed and in no time, he caught up to them.The taxi came to an abrupt stop, almost making Isabella fall. She was lost in thoughts, she didn't even know what was going on. Alex blocked them, the taxi driver was unable to drive off. He stepped out of his car and came to get her. Isabella soon realized what was happening as the who
Around 9 p.m., Alex entered into Isabella's bedroom. He had a spare key made after she forced him to break the door the other day. He decided not to act babaric and gently go inside by using the keys.Even when he knew that she didn't want to see him, Alex went to meet her regardless. Isabella was already asleep, Alex brought food for her. She hadn't eaten anything since.He sat down near her on the bed and he pulled open the duvet from her body. To his surprise, the person on the bed wasn't Isabella. There was no one on the bed unless a huge patch of clothes and pillows.He had been tricked by that little woman! Alex jerked up from the bed. He couldn't believe that she still had it in mind to escape even after he begged.Alex rushed out of the room, he immediately made phone calls and asked the estate securities to look out for her. By the time he reached downstairs, he saw Isabella entering inside the living room.She seemed to be coming from outside the mansion. Alex couldn't contr
Isabella arrived at the office with a cup of coffee and two doughnuts, enough to Sustain her for the day. She took her seat on her chair, ignoring the mess made on her desk.Isabella turned to the drawer at the corner and she brought out the mobile phone she had put in video mode to record everything that happened while she was away.When she watched the video, Isabella saw that it was Dahlia who attacked her table as expected. She smiled, Dahlia was so gullible and easy to read.Isabella was always ahead of her so she came prepared. Isabella checked the files which Dahlia had destroyed. She went through them and she smiled.They were nothing but unimportant old files which she had purposely kept there to lure Dahlia into revealing her true self. Isabella leaned down and opened the lower drawer, bringing out the original papers Dahlia was meant to destroy.Afterwards, she heads out to submit them in the management office. Since Alex wasn't around, she was supposed to submit them to hi
Alex stared at the fragile woman on the bed as he returned from getting the first aid kit to attend to her wounds.Isabella didn't speak a word to him since he arrived from the office. She didn't expect to see him, she was pleased but at the same time having mixed feelings. This wasn't the first time that he'd come and save her.Alex took his seat near her, he cupped her face in his palms and rubbed it gently. "Are you alright?" He asked her, she smiled as she shrugged her shoulders. Isabella didn't know the words to respond to him.She was aching all over but dared not say a word to him about it. She had seen how cruel Alex could be with anyone who hurt her and she wouldn't want the blood of those bodyguards to be on her hands."Isabella, talk to me. I hate it when you keep mute" Alex stated.It took Isabella a few seconds before she could speak. It was then Alex noticed that she had been slapped by those men. The tiny bruise on her delicate face wasn't visible to him until that time
Isabella and Alex could be seen having dinner in the evening, not long after they began eating, Alex got a phone call, he peaked at the caller ID and when he saw that it was Alicia, he didn't pick it up.He ignored and continued to eat his meal with the beautiful woman sitting in front of him. Isabella noticed his attitude and then she asked. "Why aren't you taking your calls?" "Because it's no one important so do not worry" Alex picked the phone and turned it off then resumed eating with Isabella. He noticed that she was distracted, so he asked her. "What's the problem? Do you have something to tell me?" Isabella nodded quickly. "Yes, Alex. I do have something to say. I'm not sure how to put it" "Just say it, you know I can't say no to you unless it involves you leaving me. I'll keep saying no to that because you're mine" he stated coldly. His words sent chills down Isabella's spine. She was his and only his. It meant that she would never have her liberty from him.She pretende
The next morning,Isabella left for work very early, even when there was barely anything for her to do at the office, she just wanted to leave the house. She couldn't stand staying in the same house with Alicia.Last night, she heard from the maids that Alexander allowed Alicia to move into the mansion with them. Isabella wasn't happy about it but she didn't want to cause them any trouble.She knew how malicious Alicia could be and she didn't want to get to face her so sh decided to leave at a time when no one would see her.When she got to the office, Isabella had breakfast. She ate chocolate flavored bread and coffee. The day was still very early and there was barely anybody in the company, only the cleaners.Isabella thought about moving out of Alex's mansion for a while. She couldn't stand living with a man who hasn't gotten over his ex girlfriend moreover being with him.Isabella felt disturbed by it, it made her feel like she snatched Alex from Catalina. As long as Alicia, who w
Isabella was done with work for the day and she got prepared to leave. After arranging her table and turning off her computer, Isabella grabbed her purse and left.It was about 7:30 p.m. when she left the office to get a cab outside. The day had just started to get dark, Isabella waited for a few minutes and didn't get a taxi so she began to walk forward, hoping to get a taxi at the front.Isabella soon noticed a car pull aside and stopping near her, she looked at the car and already realized whom it belonged to.Only Alexander Hunt had this kind of customized car in the whole of the city."Get in," Alex instructed her. Isabella leaned properly so she could see him.Beside Alex, was Alicia sitting on the front seat with him. She was dressed in a short gown with her legs spread out seductively.Although Alex didn't look at her, Isabella felt uncomfortable getting in to ride with them. "It's fine, I'll just take a taxi." Isabella explained and she continued to walk.Alex wouldn't take n
Later at night, Alex came with dinner for Isabella. Immediately he opened the door, he sighted the woman who wrapped herself on the bed with the duvet. He could still hear her sobbing.Alex went to her and he gently dropped the food on the desk beside her. He also took his seat. Isabella noticed all the movement happening around her but she ignored them."I brought you dinner. You must've had a long day at work today, Bella" Alex said, touching her back but she immediately jerked up and pushed him away."Stay away from me, Alex! Go away please! I do not want to see you, get out of this room now" Isabella yelled at him.Alex tried to get her to eat dinner, he carried the tray and placed it on his legs and was about to feed her. Isabella stared at the delicious plate of dumplings and soup which were a part of her favorite foods, however, at that moment, nothing interested her. She just didn't want to see Alex or be around him. Isabella was forced to despise Alec because of the way he a
Florence was about leaving the house to meet up with someone that can help with her predicament. Alex was too busy, he might not have the time to act fast before her son gets killed.She was really sorry about Bella. Yes she knew the old man can be tricky and evil at times. But to think her father could be so extreme she was disgusted at this.She had only driven close to the gates when some uniformed men drove into the compound.The cops.She looked at them and drove in with four cars as if they were here to arrest a dozen gangsters. ' I can't remember calling the cops. I never told them about my son's abduction. I had been warned not to involve the cops. What do they want this time l.'Florence recounts how many times food like this has been in their home when she was only a child. They would make everyone sit on the floor while they searched the whole house thoroughly leaving no stone untouched.The sight of them was terrifying to her back then. She would cry. Alex will wrap her s
When Alex stepped into the office. He was welcomed with a harsh smell of alcohol. A burning cigarette was in the center of Mr. Hunt's mouth puffing out smoke. He mumbled some words about losing a business deal because he hasn't been able to stock his company with new drugs. Alex looked at him. Mr. Hunt looked like he hadn't gotten some good sleep in months. There were dark circles clouded on his wrinkled skin beneath his aging eyes. Alex then deeply scrutinized the room. Nothing has moved all through the years he was gone. Piles of scientific book, magazines alongside other research studies filled the shelf that almost touched the ceiling."What brings you here today?"He asked without taking his eyes off an article he was reading. He lifted his head once which was filled with white hard just to dust the hot ash from his cigarette but didn't spare a glance at Alex.His hills moved over to the bottle of brandy. Alex took a drink, he winced at the burning sensation down his throat.
Alex stood outside Isabel's room. He was watching through the glass window which gave him a full view of a frail figure battling seriously for her life. While he was battling with his own wind. The genesis of Isabel's problem, the exact person who had poisoned her cells was his father Mr. Hector hunt. He had used her blood to produce some kind of medicine.It hurt more now that he and his father were not on talking terms. Going to him for help was the only option he had or else his Bella might die in the cold hands of death. "I never wanted to see that man or ask him for any help. It seems I have no other choice than to go and see him then." Alex thought to himself, slapping his head. Just then Bella's hand moved. Her head tilted sideways. Her black lashes fluttered open.Seeing this Alex rushed to her side. He held her hands and kissed them a thousand times. Bella was a strong girl. She's fighting this toxin better than what the doctor's expected.She looked at him with blurry vis
Bella,"Alex screamed running over to Bella's body lying unconscious on the floor. He then raised her head gently placing it on his own legs."Bella, I need you to wake up. Please wake up."Bella's body was gradually becoming cold. Her ears lids tightly close without any hope of fluttering open.She was very much fine when he returned yesterday. They both cuddled and she liked having the best sleep in a long time. He remembers she kissed his chest when he was pretending to still be asleep. But in the next hour she became crazy. Pointing a gun at him. Alex is confused about what must have cost her sudden action.Alex found his phone. He called the ambulance. "We will be there in an hour.""I don't have an hour to spare. Didn't you get me? It's urgent that your team arrives faster. Damn it."His location was far plus the traffic on the way. The ambulance team was doing him a big favor to arrive within an hour.One glance at Bella's body. It's obvious she won't make it within an hour.
“Did you just say that the DNA matches?” Alex asked Carlos, arching a brow at him.“Yes boss, it does match. Miss Catalina Summers is dead.” He explained to him, bringing out some other files and handling it over to him to check for clarification.“I told her she shouldn't worry about Catalina bothering us again. I hope that this will clear her thoughts finally” Alex retorted.He dismissed Carlos, asking him to go and continue his jobs while he went back upstairs to see Bella. On entering the bedroom, he finds her asleep, he couldn't do anything about it. He started at the hospital files again.Bella hasn't been settled ever since Catalina's death and it bothered him. He would definitely do anything to prove to her that the woman was dead and long gone.He didn't want her to worry, their wedding was coming up and there was nothing in the world, no one in this world that's going to put a stop to it.Alex placed the documents on top of the drawer, before crawling into bed to sleep besid
Back at the mansion after Cia and Bella finished cooking dinner, Bella received a phone call from Alex concerning his lateness in returning home that day. He would be busy having some meetings and would come later that night.Bella instantly became worried, Cia was going to take Laura with her that evening to spend the weekend, Bella had already left to spend time with Alex, however, it might not even happen when he returns from the meeting feeling exhausted.She finished packing up Laura's belongings while she escorted them to grab a taxi afterwards. Bella couldn't get her thoughts of the whole weekend Laura was going to stay with Cia. If it was for the better or not, she was completely unaware because of the dangers surrounding them now that her assumptions of Catalina being alive was coming through.Bella feared that one day, Catalina would attack them and maybe kidnap Laura just like she once did in the past. She didn't want any of that to happen, if Laura stayed with Cia, she cou
Bella alighted the taxi right in front of the Hunts corporation. One of the companies being managed by Alexander. She didn't come with her personal car, she knew he'd recognize it from the CCTV camera and she wanted to surprise him.She walked into the building after strolling through the huge surrounding of the company. She'd been here once, as his worker but now is coming here as his wife. She smiled realizing how much everything had changed in the last few years..Bella clutched her fingers tightly unto the basket containing Alex's favorite meal as she heads towards the reception. She was recognized once and allowed to go up to his office. Bella reached outside Alex's office but to her greatest surprise she was informed that he'd gone out on a private business meeting with a client.Bella still went inside his office and planned on waiting for him to come.. She takes a seat near his desk while she just scans through some documents abandoned on his table. She couldn't stop thinking
Bella woke up the next morning cuddled up in the arms of Alex which stunned her because she remembers falling asleep last night in the guest room after discussing it with Cia. She smiled and pushed her body forward, kissing him on his chest. As the coldness of her lips touched his chest, he opened his eyes to look at her.Alex wiped his eyes sleepily and yawned out. “You're awake?” He asked Bella who nodded immediately. “Yes I am. Alex, did you bring me here last night?” She asked him.“I didn't intend to sleep without you beside me for the night. So yes, I did bring you here” he confessed to her.Bella hugged him tightly to herself, sniffing in his natural scent. “I've missed you” she confessed to him. He kissed her forehead and smiled. “I've missed you more, Bella. More than you can ever imagine” he said, placing a kiss on her lips, his fingers finding their way into her dress.All of a sudden, there was a loud knock on the door which interrupted them. Isabella's eyes widened as she
The door of the living room opened that evening, Alex arrived right in time to have dinner with his family. Isabella was just placing the bowl of soup on the dining table when she heard the door open and she focused her attention there. Isabella's mood lightened up the moment she saw Alex walk inside with a bouquet of flowers and two fancy shopping bags in his hands. It was obvious that he bought them gifts. Alex had never stopped spoiling Isabella and Laura since they got back together as one family. “Daddy!’’ Laura yelled out from the corner where she was busy playing. It turned out she also heard the door open and she saw him enter. Laura stood up and ran from where she was to meet him. Alex leaned down and gave her a very big hug. “my baby..” he was just as excited as she was. Alex couldn't wait to give Laura the gift he bought, he was certain that Laura would love it. He gave her a kiss on the cheek as he picked her up in his arms and walked towards the dining room where Isa
