Chapter 40Author's point of view Isabelle felt so broken to the point that tears left her eyes without her knowing. “I am sorry, Mrs Isabelle but don't you have a clue of who might be the father of your child?” The doctor said and Dominic frowned a little. “That isn't necessary, thank you for the result, Doctor,” Dominic replied to him and took Isabelle's hand they both left. Seeing how Isabelle looked made Dominic so upset, that was one of the reasons why he never wanted to take the test, he knew things might turn out this way. “Isabelle, you need to cheer up, even if it happens to be this way I will be here with you no matter what, this baby is ours to take care of, you shouldn't get worried about it.” He always made sure to remind her of that. “Why? Why must Raphael still be a part of my life? How is this even possible?” Isabelle couldn't stop crying and Dominic hated seeing her cry. “No matter what happens Raphael won't do anything, Isabelle there’s no need to cry, I'd fix
Author's point of view Vivian was so shocked although she knew right from the beginning that Raphael wasn't the father of her kids but she never knew he was in fact really impotent. “And you never told me about it, what kind of a man are you?” Vivian was upset and she walked away. Raphael left his body on the couch and let out a sigh. He really wanted Isabelle's child to be his. He never wanted to believe the fact that he was really impotent. That was the reason why he was so happy after the results were out, it felt like what he dreamt of was really coming into existence. Then after finding out it was the lawyer who skimmed and plotted everything out, he got so infuriated and so angry. ~~~~~~Isabelle lay on the bed in the middle of the night still wide awake while Dominic was far gone asleep. She could not sleep, she was so lost in thought that she couldn't even think straight. The thought of aborting the baby crossed her mind but she snapped such thoughts away. How would
Author's point of view “Just you wait and see!” Raphael sounded more like a threat and Isabelle quickly grabbed Dominic's hand and dragged him away from there. Dominic was so angry that he wanted to tear Raphael apart but was stopped by Isabelle. They both got to the car. “We came here not to fight each other, Raphael is a very crazy man so please it would be better if we just avoid him today,” Isabelle said as they got into the car. “How dare he? How dare he bring up my parents into this, using that to threaten me as well.” Dominic was so angry. “I am so sorry about that, Raphael has really crossed the line this time, I will make sure he never gets custody of my child. Even with the last pin of evidence, he would never win this case.” Isabelle said. She looked so serious, even as she calmed Dominic down she was as well so upset. Dominic started the car and they left Raphael's house. Raphael was so angry. He swore to make Isabelle pay as she mentioned out loud that she was goi
Author's point of view Raphael got prepared and ready to go for the court. He had so many smiles on his face.“Do you really want to go?” The lawyer asked him because he knows how humiliated Raphael will be and knows Raphael doesn't like getting humiliated. “Why won't I be there? You worry about being humiliated, there is nothing that bothers me, so let's go.” Raphael said and smirked as they drove out of his house. Meanwhile, Isabelle and Dominic were preparing to leave for the court as wellIsabelle wasn't feeling too well and she was acting too slow, Dominic noticed. “Are you okay? You look like you don't want to go to court.” Dominic asked her, he knew she had waited for this day to come after finding out about the second result. “I really don't feel okay, I had a dream last night and it troubles me a lot, Dominic I think you should stay back home, I will go myself,” Isabelle said to him and he quickly shook his head. “I won't leave you to go alone, and besides why do you wa
Author's point of view Raphael got a call from the head of security who works in Dominic's house. “So did you succeed?” Raphael asked him in a low tone. And the man answered. “Yes sir and they are on their way.” They both connived together to fail the brakes of Dominic's car. Raphael worked with him to do so. Since he couldn't get the child as his and Isabelle as well and not just that trying to expose his deepest and darkest secret. That was why he did something so disastrous. After sitting in the court for a long time, waiting for Isabelle. Her lawyer called her multiple times but it wasn't going through again. Someone walked in and informed them all that Isabelle and Dominic were involved in a fatal accident but had been taken to the hospital to confirm if they were both dead or not. And Raphael smiled but he didn't msje it seems so obvious. He acted sirprised too so no one would suspect. He didn't wanted this for Isabelle but she tried to expose him out of his selfish re
Author's point of view As Raphael heard that Isabelle was in a coma and still alive he was so shocked. “Alright, I-I will be at the hospital soon.” He stuttered, Raphael was confused, seeing from the TV how fatal the accident was, how the car crashed down, he thought they would both die at a spot. He then suddenly remembered Dominic. “What about Mr Dominic?” He asked quickly. “His body wasn't found, so no one knows if he is still alive or dead.” The lady over the phone answered. Raphael released a breath and thought Dominic might be dead by now. “I will be at the hospital shortly,” Raphael answered and hung up. He took the last sip of his whisky and stood up to go change up before leaving for the hospital. The hospital's name was mentioned earlier while he was watching TV so he didn't bother asking. As he got to the hospital he was directed to the doctor's office. They both greeted themselves and Raphael sat opposite to him. He didn't even act like someone he married was bet
Author's point of view Rita opened the door as she got there and found Raphael on Dominic's chair, swirling and he stopped and frowned at her. She looked at him and furrowed because he looked quite familiar but couldn't picture where she met him from“Is that how you barge into the CEO's office without knocking?” He yelled out at her and she frowned. “Who are you and what are you doing in my boss's chair? Rita asked Raphael and he smiled after laughing a little. “That’s good, you still show some respect to him even in his absence.” Raphael smiled, he felt quite impressed. “You still haven't answered my question, what are you doing here, sir? If you don't answer right now I will call the security on you right now.” She sounded so serious and authoritative and that made Raphael annoyed and his smile vanished. “Perhaps you want to lose your job today,” Raphael said with a tight face and threw a file in front of Rita. Rita looked at him and looked at the file, she stretched her han
Author's point of view“Please, let's all work together just the way we have always been doing.” Rita said but no one was giving her listening ears. “We haven’t even heard of Mr Dominic, if he has been found or not now there is a new CEO?” One of them yelled and most of the staff agreed. “Mr Dominic would he found, but pleqsw let's all follow the innsturtions of this new CEO.” Rita didn't also want this but that was what she was assigned to do. “Who voted him as CEO? Nobody knows him from anywhere, he can't just pop out of the blue and claim to he the CEO of this company.” “Why would he come from nowhere and claim to be the CEO? Mr Dominic has never introduced us to someone like him.”“Then you are fired, go home and think about that statement you just made.” Raphael walked into the meeting and suddenly fired a man, everyone was so shocked as he did that, they all kept quiet. All the complaining and murmuring finally stopped as Raphael did that single act. “Why would I get fired
Author's point of view Noah wasn't comfortable with the fact that Isabelle went home alone. He went back upstairs and saw Tootie sleeping so peacefully. He couldn't leave Tootie all by herself at home so he then called a lady, madam Mary, someone who his father introduced to him as someone who took care of him since his mother passed away. The lady was aged but never got married. She took care of Noah as his nanny. He called her and asked if she was in town and asked her for a favor. She agreed and came over to his house to watch Tootie while he was gone till he returned. Noah got dressed and picked up the polls hile was supposed to take. He wanted to know if without these pills he could remember his past because he has been taking the pills since he woke up in his father's hospital. He held the pills container tightly and trashed it as he got outside. Not too long Raymond came over, earlier Noah called Raymond to accompany him over to the place. As Raymond arrived they both t
Author's point of view She was quite surprised to see his call, then she answered. “Isabelle aren't you coming home? Have you decided to stay there for how long?” He just went straight to the point. No greetings, he didn't even ask if she was okay. “Raphael, I'll be home soon. Besides, when did you start caring about my presence or absence? Aren't you a workaholic anymore?” She asked him, sounding upset already. “What do you mean by that?” Raphael asked with a stern voice, he wasn't even bothered if he offended her or not. “You know what? I'm coming home, there are a lot of things I want us to talk about.” Isabelle said, and he didn't say a word; he ended the call. Isabelle sighs and stands up. “Isabelle, what's wrong?” Noah asked because it was so obvious that Isabelle wasn't okay. “Uhh, I'm leaving now, I'll come back tomorrow.” Isabelle ignored his questions and picked up her bag. “Wait, are you going back to your husband?” He asked her, he looked worried and didn't want he
Author's point of view The next morning, immediately after she woke up, she noticed Tootie was still asleep, so she moved to the bathroom, washed up, and left. She moved slowly to Noah's room, placed a knock, and opened the door slightly. She saw Noah taking some pills, and she looked worried and opened his door wide, bringing his attention to her. “Are you okay?” She asked, sounding worried. And Noah looked at her. “Isabelle, I'm fine; you should have knocked at least.” He said, he still didn't look happy. He was dressed up like he wanted to leave for work. “I did; I'm sorry I barged in, though; I saw you taking those pills. I thought you weren't well.” She said and he stood up from the chair and walked close to her. “I'm fine.” His voice was low and he walked away from his room. Isabelle's breath seized as he got close to her, and when he walked away, she breathed out and looked at the pills; she walked to the table where it was kept, took one tablet, held it tight, and walke
Author's point of view “Noah, so how's your dad?” Isabelle asked him and he turned and looked at her. “He is doing pretty good, though, but even if he is a Doctor, he needs time to rest, but he never listens.” Noah suddenly complained and Isabelle was so surprised to hear that his father is a Doctor. “So your father is a Doctor? That's very good.” She said and he nodded. “But that shouldn't deprive him of his rest.” Isabelle agreed with Noah. She wanted to ask him if he was his biological father, but she didn't know how to ask him. She didn't want him to see her as a weird person. They both heard Tootie's voice, like she was crying so they both went upstairs. Isabelle decided to spend a night there so she called Raphael and informed him about it. Raphael didn't even bother to ask why. He just told her to do whatever she wanted. Isabelle was quite angry about it, but she didn't make it look so obvious. Noah noticed her behavior and knew something was wrong, he waited till she w
Author's point of view It was the weekend, and Noah had left for his family house, as he had promised to go see his father. He told Isabelle before leaving so she could stay with Tootie till he got back. Getting there, his father welcomed him warmly. “It's so good to see you, Dad.” Noah smiled as he shook his father, and his father smiled. “You too, son. You look so healthy, and that is very good.” His father laughed a little, looking happy that Noah was finally healing gradually.Noah's father is a Doctor, and he is so good at his profession that he is a doctor and a scientist who invented vaccines to treat sick people. “Yes, Dad,” Noah answered, not stopping to smile. He was glad to see his father because it had been a while since he had seen him. “You still see those things in your dream?” He asked Noah. “I'm good now, although I still see those things, but it doesn't come as a shock anymore,” Noah answered. “And the lady in your dream? Have you seen her face or seen someon
Author's point of view “I'm so sorry, Isabelle.” Noah was so shocked that he tried to attempt what he had never imagined for once. “It is fine.” Isabelle smiled a little and nodded, trying to shove everything aside. She wanted to kiss him, too, but she had to restrain herself from doing that because she was still unsure about her feelings. Noah wasn't comfortable around her and felt ashamed. He thought of what she would think of him. He hated himself for trying to do that but also felt sad. “What about Tootie?” Isabelle asked him, breaking the awkward silence because she knew he wasn't okay anymore. “Tootie is still asleep; she will probably wake up anytime soon, " he said, and Isabelle nodded with a smile. “Have you had something to eat already?” She asked, raising her eyebrows slightly. “Yes, I will leave now, I'm running late.” Noah picked up his work bag on the couch. “Alright, I will see you later.” She smiled at him, and he released a little smile and nodded before leavi
Author's point of view She was quite shocked when she saw photos of her and Dominic kissing and also saw the same symbol she saw at the hospital, of the first letter of her name and also the letter of Dominic's name. She was surprised. “I do not know how true all of this is, I don’t know why it's so hard for me to remember. I also felt that Dominic and I had a thing but I wasn't too sure about that.” Isabelle said to Rita. Rita believed her due to the accident that happened, which made her lose most of her memories. “This should clear your doubt that you both were together.” Rita picked up the picture of Isabelle and Dominic kissing. “That's right, but I do not get the fact that I would do such a thing when I am married. It is such an embarrassing thing to think of.” Isabelle said, and Rita's facial expression showed that she disagreed with her. “Isabelle, probably you won't remember, but before that accident happened to you and Mr. Dominic, you were fighting for a Divorce; you w
Author's point of view Rita couldn't believe her eyes. She knew Isabelle was fighting for a divorce as of the time the accident occurred, and Isabelle also complained most of the time about her husband's behavior, but what she never noticed was that she had been with Dominic all this while. She picked up a letter, which was the last thing in the case, and opened it. She read through the letter of how Dominic talked about treating her with so much love, the love she couldn’t get with Raphael. It felt heartwarming for Rita, who quickly arranged everything in the briefcase. She knew someone like Raphael didn't even deserve a woman like Isabelle. She printed out and enveloped her resignation letter, which she had typed some weeks ago. After taking her things from her office, she walked to Raphael’s office. She still gave a knock and walked in. “My resignation letter.” She flung it on his table. “Goodbye, Mr. Raphael; I hope to hear good news from this company now I'm gone,” Rita said
Chapter 64 Author's point of view “What do you mean I am distracting you? When you are still outside till this time? What kind of work are you doing that would keep you up till this time?” Isabelle was as well upset so she yelled back at him. “Isabelle, you can go to bed, you won't understand why I am still working, and that energy to explain why I am here right now I don't have.” Raphael sounded like was tired of Isabelle and just wanted to end the call. “You can't tell me that! Even when I was working with Mr Dominic I didn't stay up till midnight. We have never had piled up work before, or don't you work in the daytime?!” Isabelle yelled out, she didn't know when those words left her mouth. And Raphael suddenly became speechless. He thought to himself if Isabelle had regained her memories. Isabelle as well was also shocked as she said that. “Have you….?” He couldn't even complete his statement. “I don't know, it just slipped off my mouth,” Isabelle said in a surprised tone,
