Warren

ISABELLA'S POV…

I turned to my left and found Warren leaning against the cold elevator walls with a smile on his face.

“ Hello Warren.” I forced a smile..

“ If it isn't my friend who ditched me..” he scoffed and I chuckled softly..

“ I'm so sorry, Warren I really didn't mean to do that, okay?” I apologized sincerely and he flashed me a spellbinding smile..

“ I would only accept your apology if you let me treat you to lunch..” he insisted and I agreed without hesitation besides I could really talk to someone at the moment.

Warren was also a Friend from highschool but unfortunately Kristen and Warren never liked each other..

Even though Warren's company was nowhere close to Kristen's, they both Never got along for an unknown reason…

The elevator opened up at the third floor of the mall where the restaurant was and Warren got us a table with a magnificent view…

“ So tell me how have you been? You look so thin, have you been eating lately?” Warren asked and he took a seat opposite mine..

“ yeah I've.. What about you? Haven't heard from you lately. What have you been up to?” I asked while waiting for the Meal to be served..

“ Well I've been here and there busy with the company..” He chuckled softly as he picked up his drink and took a sip..

The dishes arrived shortly and of course there were spaghetti meatballs…

“ Don't tell me you still remember how much I love spaghetti meatballs…” I narrowed my eyes at him playfully as I picked up the cutlery ready to dig in.

“ Would you believe me if I told you I do?” He raised an eyebrow with a Cunny smile plastered on his face but I paid less attention to him as I dug into my meal and began eating happily.

“ Of course not.. I'm pretty sure it's just a lucky guess..” I shrugged my shoulders as I quietly enjoyed my meal…

While I was eating, Warren spent his time staring at me like some love striking teenager..

“ Stop doing that, you look stupid..” I mumbled as I picked up a servette and wiped my lips clean..

“ I don't mind being stupid for you..” he said in a playful manner earning a glare from me..

“ my husband is gonna have your head for lunch..” I teased and his face changed instantly at the mention of Kristen..

“ You didn't have to bring him up..” He Said with a sulky expression and I burst into ripples of laughter..

“ See? I know how to shut you up..” Warren suddenly leaned over and wiped my lips gently with a servette.

“ You've got something on your lips.” He mumbled and sat back down.

“ Oh..” I kept on eating but Unbeknownst to me someone had been taking pictures of myself and Warren..

“ You know you can always talk to me right? I do care for you, Izzy but unfortunately you don't really care about our friendship.. I guess spending time with Justin and Diana made you distant from me.” He said with a straight face and for some reason I couldn't tell what he was thinking…

“ Of course not, I do care about our friendship but as you know I've been quite busy with the company and some personal stuff.. let's not forget the fact that you and Kristen don't get along well.”

“ I heard he was involved in an accident? Is he dead?” I could sense sarcasm in his words and that earned Another glare from me..

“ Of course not, Warren and I would appreciate it if you two got along and stopped trying to eat each other..”

“ I can say I'll try but for you I'll do anything..” He smirked..

After eating, I did a little more shopping before walking outta the mall with Warren..

“ Can I at least drop you off at your home?” He offered but I refused without hesitation..

“ It's fine, besides I've got somewhere to be and I also came with my driver..” I pointed at the man I'm black standing by the Maybach..

“ In that case, I'm gonna see you around some other time… Let's hang up often, okay?” He said and I nodded with a smile before walking to the Maybach..

The driver placed all the shopping bags in the trunk of the car before opening the backseat door for me..

“ Take me to the classroom..”I informed him and he immediately stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the highway…

I picked up my tablet which was Beside me and began going through a few business e-mails which I haven't got time to respond to…

Even though Dad assured me that there was nothing to be worried about, I couldn't help but miss my company..

I wish everything would go back to being normal again..

The car drove towards an unknown location and as we got closer to the classroom my face had turned expressionless unlike the smile I'd earlier..

The classroom wasn't an ordinary place, it smelled of blood and death.

The Maybach pulled up at the entrance and Camille held the door for me..

I stepped outta the car and the guards at the entrance bowed respectfully…

“ Where are they?” I asked as we both walked through the entrance of the most gruesome place..

It was a place where life was treated like nothing..

“ Cell 45..” She muttered and we both walked towards the cell…

The entire building reeked of blood and dead bodies..

After Walking through the dark hallways, we finally arrived at cell 45. Right outside the cell one could hear the screams and agony of three people.

“Open it…” I commanded and the guards stationed in front of the cell opened up immediately.

Camille and I walked inside the cell and in the middle of the room were three naked men being hold up by chains..

“ Hello Fred…” I casually walked towards the table where all the tools were being kept..

“ Good day, Ma'am… You didn't have to come over here..” Fred walked away from the men who were already covered in blood..

“ It's okay… I can handle it, besides I wanna see the faces of the ones who dares to cause me trouble…” I smirked viciously as I picked up a dagger and trailed my finger on the sharp edge…

“ Did you get any information out of any of them?” I asked without sparing any of them a glance.

“ Still refusing to speak..” Fred said and I nodded in understanding..

“ We didn't do anything!”

“ Let us Go, please!” They begged but unfortunately It was an eye for an eye…

“ The three of you were the last people around the plane before it took off.. It wasn't a coincidence, was it?” I asked while walking towards them unhurriedly..

“ We don't know anything about that!” The Blondie in the middle spoke while struggling to break free from the chains but I suddenly stabbed his upper thigh with the dagger and dragged it downwards making me scream in agony..

“ One more push and you're never gonna walk again.” I casually said like it was nothing..

Blood gushed outta his thigh as he screamed out loud but I didn't seem to care..

My marriage is currently hanging on a thread thanks to these junkies..

“ I won't ask again..” I Muttered as I walked back to the table and picked up another interesting tool..

“ I almost lost my husband, thanks to you guys…but of course junkies like you who have nothing to lose won't understand how that feels..” I said as I picked up the plier and walked towards the black haired douchebag.

“ Who sent you?” I asked but he shook his head in fear without saying a word..

“ Very well then..” I said and squeezed his manhood with the plier making him scream like a child..

“ I'll talk! Please, that's enough!” The one who seemed to be younger spoke and I grinned from ear to ear.

“ See? Not so bad..” I let go of the black haired douchebag and walked towards the youngest one..

“ Tell me everything you know.”

“ We never saw who the man was.. all we got was a phone call and the money was delivered inside a car trunk!” He said in fear but of course I wasn't convinced..

“ Are you trying to make me laugh?”

“ I'm not lying, I promise!” they simultaneously said and I rubbed my chin thoughtfully..

“ I see..” I mumbled before turning around and walked away from them..

I picked up a tissue and wiped off the bloodstain on my hands..

“ Do you still have their stuff?” I asked Fred and he hurriedly brought them out..

“ I took out their cellphones and placed them in a plastic bag before walking towards the door when Blondie spoke..

“ We already told you everything we know, you're gonna let us go right?” He asked hopefully but unfortunately for him I wasn't gonna let them off that easily..

“ Even though you were only taking orders from someone, we couldn't deny the fact that you were also involved in everything… I'm sorry dear but you're gonna have to sit tight..”

I winked at them and walked away ignoring their screams..

“ You know what to do..” I gestured at Fred with a smile….

Camille and I walked towards the exit after that.

“ How's things at the company?” I asked as we walked unhurriedly to the car.

“ Things are stable.. Lord Albert handles all the clients and everything else.” I've always known my father would do a great job looking after my company but I still feel it would be too much of a burden for him..

“ Do you want me to look into the cell phones?” He asked and I shook my head slowly..

“ Don't worry I'll handle it. Focus on the task at hand.”

“ Don't talk about any of this when in the mansion, I want everything to be done discreetly.”

“ Yes ma'am..”

I walked back to the car because I'd have to return to the mansion immediately..

It was almost Time for Kristen's Medication and I couldn't want him to get grumpy once again..

I got into the car and he drove off immediately..

I kept the phones in a small compartment inside the car before leaning against the seat with my eyes closed..

I glanced at my hands which were once stained with blood and heaved a sigh…

The ride to the mansion took longer than expected and the moment he pulled up at the lobby I hurried outta the car and went over to the living room but unfortunately Kristen wasn't in there so I hurried to the bedroom but found a maid cleaning the place..

“ Lord Kristen is still in a meeting..” she informed me and I heaved a sigh of relief before throwing myself on the couch for a brief moment but I still felt uncomfortable and also reeked of blood..

I wouldn't want Kristen to see me in those clothes so I went straight to the bathroom and pulled off my stuff before fixing a hot steamy bath..

I felt my tensed muscles relaxed as the hot water came in contact with my skin..

I couldn't help but heave a sigh as I let my body submerged in the water..

It felt so good I don't wanna get outta the water..

I wonder what Kristen had been upto all day..

“ Alexa, play Chris Brown's no guidance.” I mumbled with my eyes closed and in no time the song began to play in the bathroom ..

I couldn't help but move my head to the rhyme with a satisfied smile on my face..

For a brief moment I'd forgotten all about my problems and all I wanted to do at the moment was stay in the tub and unwind..

I was so lost in my own little world that I failed to realize that I wasn't alone in the bathroom..

I gasped in fear when a hand suddenly grabbed hold of my neck roughly, choking me in the process.

“ How dare you?”
