ISABELLE'S POV.My eyes fluttered open as I stared at the white ceiling with a blank expression..Only three words echoed in my head ‘i love you’ I stayed there for a brief moment before proceeding to move to a sitting position but felt a sharp sensation at my abdomen but that didn't stop me from getting out of the bed.I gently placed my feet on the cold floor and headed towards the door even though I still felt dizzy and weak from the previous events.I quietly headed towards the door and found Kristen's guards stationed outside the ward.“ Ma'am the doctor advised that you stay in bed for some time.” One of the guards explained with a worried expression but I simply ignored them and walked past them and headed towards Stefan's office.“ What are you doing out here? You should be in bed resting.” Stefan scolded me as soon as I walked inside his office and he immediately came to myself..“ Take me to my husband.” I said without hesitation.“ First you need to take care of yourself
ISABELLE'S POV..“ It is my responsibility to take care of you else Kristen is going to have my head.” Stefan playfully said and I forced a chuckle.“ I'm fine, okay? You don't have to worry about me.” I mumbled while eating my meal.My mind was occupied and I Kept seeing a particular scene play out all over and over again in my head.“ I don't look fine.. it's okay to cry sometimes you know? We shouldn't keep everything bottled up. You can't fool me, Izzy.” Stefan frowned Slightly as he stared at me intensely but I really wasn't ready to talk about it.“ I'm fine, truly..” I forced a smile and began eating with my head hung low. He decided not to ask anymore.“ You need to take care of your body first.. Kristen will be unhappy if he finds out you were malnourished.” He advised and I heaved a sigh.“ How's the MRI scan?” I Decided to ask even though I felt anxious.“ Well it came back clean.. Fortunately there were no abnormalities in his brain. He's going to be okay.” He assured me a
After dinner they both moved to the balcony of the apartment and stayed there in a comfortable silence.“ I can't seem to reach Izzy. Is everything okay?” Diane asked with a worried expression.“ Everything is fine, maybe she's probably too busy to answer the phone.” Stefan assured her while staring at the Beautiful nice view in front of them.“ It's cold out here.” Mumbled and shivered silently but to her surprise he pulled her closer into his arms. He pulled her into his warmth and gently stroked her back.“ Do you feel better?” He asked as he kept stroking her back gently.“ Yeah.” She mumbled while snuggling closer to him.His lips curled upwards into a smile as he happily let her snuggle closer to him..Diane was also enjoying the warmth his Body provided and didn't wanna pull away.“ Do you wanna play some games? To keep the night going?” Diane Suddenly had an idea to get him to talk.“ What kind of game?” he asked with a raised eyebrow.“ Questions and answer cards..” She was
Stefan had excused himself to go get a few things from his car and left the apartment.He took the elevator down to the underground parking lot and quietly walked towards his car but stopped walking when he realized something.“ I thought I made myself clear?” He spoke as his face morphed into a frown.“ It's nice to meet you again, Lord Stefan.” the woman spoke as she stepped out of the shadows with her guards.“ Why are you here?” He asked as he stared at The woman with a cold expression.“ I'm here to see my daughter, Lord Stefan. I have no problem with you and I wouldn't want you to get involved in my family business.” She said even though deep down she was actually scared of the man in front of her but of course She had to stand her ground if she wanted to see her daughter.“ She's not your daughter and you're related in any way.. if that is all you can leave, the residents here ain't used to loud disturbances.” He nonchalantly threw shade at her as he headed towards his car wi
ISABELLE'S POV.“ As of this moment I'll be running the company in place of my husband.” I nonchalantly informed them and they began murmuring once again.“ What's going on here? Is this some kind of joke huh? Where's Lord Kristen? We all demand an explanation immediately.” Mr Cha asked and they all agreed to his words but I simply snapped my fingers and Richard immediately passed a few documents Around.“ My husband is away for business at the moment and I'll be running the company.. if you have a problem with this Change you're welcome to leave right now..” I pointed at the door and of course a few were already contemplating on leaving.“ But unfortunately you will be leaving behind all your rights as a shareholder including your shares.” I shrugged and that seemed to get their attention as they all stopped moving and decided to read the documents that were handed to them..They looked at the documents in disbelief..“ This…” “ Exactly what you think it is.” I scoffed as I watched
ISABELLE'S POV.“ I'm sorry but who are you? Do I know you?” Kristen asked with a confused expression and it felt like my head was about to explode.“Kristen? It's me, Isabelle, your wife.. don't you remember me?” I asked as I felt my heart beat accelerate.“ I'm sorry but I don't remember getting married..Can you please get the doctor? My legs hurt.” He calmly said but I stared at him with teary eyes.I couldn't believe it was happening all over again.“ Did I say something wrong? Are you okay?” He asked and I shook my head with a smile while trying to fight back my tears.“ I'll go get the doctor.” I said and Walked out of the room and went to get Stefan who followed me immediately.Soon I was back in the room with Stefan, a few skilled doctors and they began to examine him.“ Do you feel any discomfort anywhere?” Stefan asked him while I stood a few feet away from them with my hands clasped behind tightly.My hands were trembling already but I tried to keep calm as I waited for S
ISABELLE'S POV.Mom came rushing inside the room with a big smile on her face and Kristen who'd just woken up didn't get to say anything as she Suddenly threw her arms around him and hugged him tightly.“ Thank goodness you're okay..” she heaved a sigh of relief as she held onto him tightly while I placed his meal at the bedside cabinet and couldn't help but smile.“ can't breathe.” Kristen Nonchalantly spoke and only then did she pull away and began Checking for anymore damages.“ You gave us quite the scare.” Mom said as she sat down beside him and held his hand while I placed a table in front of him so I could feed him congee.“ You should take a rest, Isabelle.” Mom said with a worried expression and I shook my head.“ It's fine Mom, I'm just going to feed him.” I insisted but Mom wouldn't have any of that.“ You haven't been taking care of yourself and the baby.. you don't have to worry about feeding him right now all you need to be worried about is taking time off, I'll take ca
Diane tried to push him away but Stefan was adamant on getting an answer from her..“ I missed you so much and it's already messing with my head.” He truthfully spoke but Diane wasn't in any way convinced.“ Let go..” she said in between clenched teeth and took her wrist away from his hand but he suddenly grabbed hold of her head and pressed his lips against hers roughly while she kept tapping his shoulder to get him off her but he wouldn't stop as he bit down on her bottom lip before sliding in his tongue into her mouth kissing her wildly until she'd stepped on his feet angrily and only then did he pull away from her with a groan..“ Get off me, Stefan!” She half yelled as tears rolled down her cheeks. “ I'm sorry..” Stefan tried to apologize for forcing himself on her but he was suddenly slapped hard across the face.“ I Hate you!” She got into the car and stormed off immediately while he stood there with a complicated expression.“ Goodluck trying to fix that, Stefan.” He scratc
