As Alex drove us towards the airport , the tension in the car was palpable. The rain poured heavily, obscuring the road ahead, and thunder rumbled ominously in the distance. The weather seemed to mirror the turmoil in my heart as I desperately tried to reach Isabella, only to be met with a constant "call failed" message.The worry gnawed at my insides, threatening to consume me. What if something had happened to Isabella and Sofia? What if Barnabas had already gotten to them? The thought sent a surge of fear through me, making it difficult to breathe."Enzo, we have to stay calm," Alex said, his voice filled with concern. "We can't jump to conclusions. Isabella is strong, and she knows how to protect herself and Sofia."I nodded, trying to take comfort in Alex's words. He was right. Isabella was a force to be reckoned with, and she had shown time and time again that she could handle herself. But that didn't stop the fear from gripping my heart.We continued on our journey, the rain po
Isabella—-Chapter 72I groaned as I opened my eyes, the morning sunlight filtering through the curtains. My body felt heavy with sleep, and I could hear Sofia's voice urging me to wake up. Rubbing the sleep from my eyes, I sat up and glanced at the clock on the bedside table. It was later than I usually woke up, but I reminded myself that I didn't have to rush off to work like everyone else.Aurora was already dressed and ready for work, sitting beside me with a teasing smile on her face. "Good morning, sister. Is this how you always sleep in and wake up late, despite having to go to work?" she asked, her tone playfully mocking.I chuckled, ruffling Sofia's hair as she climbed onto the bed with me. "Well, I don't have to adhere to the same schedule as everyone else anymore," I replied, my voice filled with amusement. "Besides, I've handed all your resumes to Miguel. He'll handle it from now on, so you're no longer under my wing."Aurora's eyes widened in surprise, and she let out a b
ISABELLA——“Welcome Mrs Ferrari.” Few workers said to me as I marched in with a few guards by side and my dad behind me and Hugh opening the elevator for me before I got there.“Thanks Hugh, I hope you are enjoying the company on your first day?” I asked Hugh who nods with a weird smile and for some reasons I can’t point out he avoids my dads gaze…..where could aurora possibly be?“Your office?” Hugh asked about to press the elevator buttons.“Yes .” I replied.I entered my office and quickly settled in, checking my emails and going through my schedule for the day. Just as I was about to start on some paperwork, Miguel, my assistant, knocked on the door."Isabella, I'm sorry to interrupt, but there's an urgent meeting with all the staff. It seems important," Miguel informed me.I sighed, realizing that my plans for the day were about to change. "Alright, let's go," I said, grabbing my notebook and pen.As we made our way to the meeting room, I noticed my dad following closely behind.
ISABELLA—-Enzo's expression softened, and he gently brushed a strand of hair away from my face. "I'm sorry, Isabella. I never wanted to be away from you for so long," he replied, his voice filled with regret. "But I had to ensure your safety and deal with the threat that was looming over us. I couldn't risk putting you in danger."I nodded, understanding the weight of his words. As much as I had missed him, I knew that Enzo had made the right decision. Our love was strong, but it couldn't protect us from the dangers that lurked in the shadows.Enzo took a step closer, his hand caressing my cheek. "I promise, Isabella, I will do everything in my power to keep you safe. We'll face this threat together, and we'll come out stronger on the other side," he said, his voice filled with determination.“Where is Sofia?” Enzo asked, teasing my lips with his hands.“ in school.” I replied, trying my best not to blush.“She needs to stop going to school and attend private school at home to protec
ISABELLA—-“ yes she had full access to Enzo for goodness sake she was Enzo’s personal doctor all through his time healing.” Alex said to me with regrets written all over his face.“Why couldn’t you force him to come back home immediately this happened to him and again why were you two rushing to come back, you do know I can actually take good care of myself without your guidance and I was doing that perfectly for more than month.” I said to Alex who tries his very best to avoid my gaze.“ I am really sorry Isabella but he is your fiancé, you know how stubborn he is and he doesn’t want you to see him in this state and secondly he was so fucking worried that barnabas got to you before he knew.”“Why is he so scared of barnabas… one thing I know about barnabas is that he is never scared of anyone no matter how you threaten him?”I asked Alex who murmured few words to himself.“ Alex, speak to me.” I said with a demanding tone to Alex.“ barnabas is more of an anonymous person in the mafi
ISABELLA—-As I was about to ask Alex about any updates, my phone buzzed with a message. It was from the doctor, informing me that Enzo had opened his eyes. Excitement and relief flooded through me, and I rushed to his room, eager to see him awake.But when I entered the room, my heart sank. Enzo was lying there, his eyes open but devoid of recognition. He stared blankly ahead, unable to move or speak. It was as if he was trapped in his own body, unable to communicate with the world.Tears welled up in my eyes as I approached him, gently taking his hand in mine. "Enzo, can you hear me?" I whispered, my voice filled with hope.There was no response. Enzo's gaze remained distant, his body still and unresponsive. It felt like a cruel twist of fate. He had opened his eyes, but he was still so far away from me.The doctor entered the room, his expression grave. He explained that Enzo had suffered a severe brain injury during the attack, which had resulted in his current condition. It was u
ISABELLA—-“Enzo almost died!!!” I yelled like it just happened, “Calm down Isabella… it was really critical but we got a hang of it and that’s why you saw Enzo.” Alex assured me as I tried to keep a fake smile on my face.“You don’t have to keep trying to look happy if you are breaking down inside Isabella.” Alex added while I continued to stare at Enzo who was still lying still on the bed with his eyes wide opened.“ I missed him so much and was expecting him to come back to me in good health but he didn’t.” I whispered to myself.As I stood there, staring at Enzo lying motionless on the hospital bed, my mind began to wander. I had imagined his return so differently. I had pictured him walking through the front door, a smile on his face, his arms open wide to embrace me and our child. I had imagined him healthy and strong, ready to take on the world with us by his side.But reality had shattered those dreams. Enzo had come back to me, but not in the way I had hoped. He was weak, hi
AURORA——“Ugh!!!! That bitch!!!” I exclaimed after making sure I was far from the ward.“ and what’s wrong this time?”Hugh asked from behind making me jerk up in scare.“Have you been standing here waiting for me since then?” I asked making Hugh chuckle.“I felt like strangling that Enzo’s right hand man or whatever…I wanted to see Enzo’s miserable face in that condition.” Hugh said before laughing evilly again.“Don’t dare talk about Enzo in that manner.” I warned Hugh while pointing my hands straight at his face. He unexpectedly pulls e to his chest with the same finger I pointed at him.“Ouch, Hugh you are hurting me.” I begged but he still didn’t let go.“Don’t you forget that the chances of Enzo coming back to you depends solely on me.” Hugh whispered to me through grunted teeth.I winced as Hugh's grip tightened around my wrist, his words sinking in. He was right. Enzo's recovery and his memory of me depended on Hugh's ability to manipulate the situation. I couldn't afford to le
ISABELLA—-I quickly dialed Alex's number, my fingers trembling slightly with anticipation. I needed to warn him about Aurora's threats and make sure he was prepared for whatever she had planned."Isabella, what's wrong?" Alex answered, his voice filled with concern."Aurora just paid me a visit at the office," I said, my voice urgent. "She's more determined than ever to make me pay for being with Enzo. I can feel that she has a plan, Alex. We need to be more vigilant, especially when it comes to Enzo's safety."There was a brief pause on the other end of the line, and then Alex spoke, his voice steady. "I understand, Isabella. I'll make sure to increase security around Enzo. We won't let anything happen to him.""Thank you, Alex," I said, relief flooding through me. I knew I could count on him to protect Enzo. "Please keep me updated on any suspicious activities or threats. We need to stay one step ahead of Aurora.""I will, Isabella," Alex assured me. "Just focus on taking care of E
ISABELLA——“ I need to go get something’s at home I hope you can watch over Enzo safely?” I said to Alex who smiles.“ I would protect him with my life if I have to.” Alex assured before gazing back at Enzo who hasn’t been able to close his eyes since he opened them last night.“Thank you so much Alex for not ever giving up on my Enzo.” I said to Alex before placing a kiss on Enzo’s forehead.I have to return to the office and make sure they aren’t feeling relaxed because I am not around to handle them.And Sofia had to go back to school and not continue to cry her eyes out for Enzo.Immediately I came out of the hospital I saw lots of men in black gathered around my car with fierce looks.“Uhh, who are you people.” I asked while Sofia just stared at them in surprise.“Huge men.” Sofia murmured.One of the guards rushed up to me taking off his glasses.“We haven’t seen Mr Ferrari for two months or more and we had to activate the distress mode which he had set up for you two now we are
