Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter Nineteen - A little birdie told me
Isabella's point of view"Jason," Zachary called out making the arrogant smirk on Jason's face wipe off.He kept his hand to himself and used the other to hold unto his daughter."Uncle Zach," She cried out, a large smile on that little face.I had no idea what her name was till now and the thought made me feel bad. "Zachary," Jason said, his tone a bit cold, "I had no idea you would be here. In this city. Going on what seems to be a date with your future wife."His eyes held mine for a few seconds before moving to Zachary's again. I could feel the tension rolling off both boys, so thick I could cut through it with a knife."Hey little girl," I waved my hands at her, "Why don't we leave this place because people are watching us and I hate drama," I clapped my hands together like I was in a fucking drama.Screw me. Two weeks ago, I thought the whole arranged marriage stuff was off the table and now, here I was, standing in-between both brothers, one I was supposed to get married to wh
Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter Twenty - Jason is a grumpy ass
Isabella's point of view."She's asleep," Jason announced as he came into the sitting room.I was currently working on a new dress I planned to add to my collection before I travelled back to my mother. The whole auctioning stuff had delayed my plans for a whole week now so I might as well use it to make some money.I waved my hand in the air mockingly, "Whoopee, that's the best news anyone can hear."I half expected Jason to tease me some more or even say something stupid about my drawings but he didn't, he sat down on the couch opposite me and turned on the TV, giving whatever movie was on his full attention.Reminded me of our time together when we were younger. The calm before the storm."There's a little smudge there" He muttered under his breath, "But you're way better now, no longer the girl who couldn't even draw a straight line and had to follow me around begging me to teach you."I huffed at that. Was that how he saw me? Still a little girl because that stuff happened about
Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter Twenty One- Zade's advice
Jason's point of view.She slept like an angel when she was mad. A little snoring and mouth slightly opened in a way she would deny if I ever told her.An habit she did not grow out off once she got older, it seemed.I knew she would become offended whenever I made her remember the exact situation that brought her to my house. To my bed. The way I wanted it to be. And yet, I still did everything in my power to make her angry.My brother's betrothed. The press would have my head, boycott me probably if they knew about what I was doing.If my dad knew what I was doing, he would probably disown me a third time. I wasn't the good son, the golden son that took over the family business and did everything in his power to dote on the old man.I wondered if Zachary was even inlove with her or he did all this to spite me? But if the latter was the case then that means he knew about everything which wasn't possible. Mom would never tell anyone and neither would Zade.They were the only ones I tr
Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter Twenty Two - A Day with Amethyst
Isabella's point of view."And where did your daddy say he was going?" I asked as I walked around, trying to find an appropriate breakfast for Amethyst and myself.The little bundle of joy jumped around the penthouse with me, dressed in just her pyjamas with a little bow on her head while clutching her toy. She looked so much like Jason."To meet Uncle Zade, he said I'll be spending an entire day with you," She took a seat on one of the island chairs. I nodded at that, "He left us his credit card so we'll be going shopping, get manicures and probably even some other things I haven't thought of yet," I poked her in the stomach which seemed to make her happy as she started giggling.Breakfast for the day turned out to be cereals since that was the only food item I could find in the kitchen. Couldn't even find some fruit to make it more nutritious.And that was why the shopping with Amethyst seemed to make more sense."You look exactly like her," If I wasn't listening, I would have miss
Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter Twenty Three- I hate you
Isabella's point of view.I had no idea how mad Jason would be when he came back home and somehow that turned me on.I prepared a special dinner, dressed Amethyst up in one of the new dresses and even made her hair up in a fancy updo while I got dressed in a simple black gown that hugged my curves. To top it off, I wore the ring I bought and then placed his credit card on the table."Dinner is ready. Come here soon," I texted him before I lost the courage to change everything, get Amethyst out of her gown and just go to sleep.His reply came back faster than I expected, "I had a rough day, does that dinner comes with a dessert that includes you."I had no idea why his reply seemed to make the butterflies in my stomach wake up. I was his brother's betrothed and he refused to help me.I had to keep that in mind.I dropped my phone down and turned to Amethyst, "So did we have fun today?" I asked her, listening carefully to know if I made some sort of mistake today.The grin that came to
Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter Twenty Four - Apology letter
Isabella's point of view.All we did was sleep that night, I was mortified while Jason could not stop laughing like a maniac.The next morning, Jason had made breakfast already, already serving a huge chunk on Amethyst's plate by the time I arrived in the kitchen."What do we say to the pretty lady when she wakes up in the morning," He kissed Amethyst on the cheek but his eyes never left mine.I had to roll my eyes at him. But I did smile sweetly when I saw Amethyst was in one of the outfits we had gotten yesterday."Good morning Meda," She said a bit shyly, turning back to her food immediately.I had no idea if I should place a kiss on her forehead or just ruffle her hair a bit to show my affection without it seeming like I wanted to overstep. I ended up ruffling her hair."Good morning Amethyst, I'm pretty sure you had a great night," I said to her, the smile still plastered on my face.I walked to the refrigerator and got myself a box of fruit juice as I had no intention of eating
Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter Twenty Five - Momentum from a four year old
Isabella's point of view."I can't believe he gave you this," Cameron waved the paper around, her eyes wide in disbelief, "He wants you and also doesn't want you because of his family. It's fucked up."I had a very complicated relationship with Jason. One second, I had the intense desire to jump his bones and the next minute, I want him to stay as far away from me as humanly possible.I fell down on the bed, "It's so frustrating, like why didn't my dad negotiate for the better thing when he thought an arranged marriage was a good idea," I wanted to punch something so badly at the moment.I had no idea what moment this was.After I had my much deserved shower in my own apartment and slept all through the night, I woke up to the sound of Cameron slamming doors as she entered into the apartment."I'm really sorry, I did not expect you till tomorrow," She said once she realized I was home and had the most angry sleep face she had ever seen.We hugged and I shared the apology letter Jason
Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter Twenty Six - Will you marry me?
Isabella's point of view "Amethyst, don't you know it's wrong to jump on someone," Annabelle's scolding reminded me of my mom when we were younger."You could have gotten her injured or worse, gotten yourself injured."Amethyst looked at the ground shyly, "I'm sorry, Meda," She muttered the words with her tone so low, it was almost difficult to hear her.A lot of people were watching us now, some giggling and pointing towards my direction. I had no idea if anyone knew the engagement party was for me. I could feel his gaze on me but Jason was nowhere to be found. His scent lingered in the air. I knew he was somewhere in the room, I just couldn't pinpoint the location.I had to bend down and place a kiss on Amethyst's forehead, "It's alright princess, why don't we get ourselves something to drink."There was no way I could be sure I had not seen the hint of a smile on Annabelle's face. Amethyst held onto my hand and led me to the buffet table, "Let's get a cupcake, daddy said I could

Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter One hundred and Eighteen - Maybe one day
Isabella's point of view.Zachary turned himself in to the police the next morning. We woke up and he was nowhere to be found, all he had left was the simple note he wrote about where he was going to and what he was going to do.Jason drove us back to the penthouse, the news reporter made another news concerning the issue and it was almost like all was well in the world again. No one cared about Cameron being in the hospital for alcohol and pills poisoning, no one cared about the fact that Jason would have been in jail yesterday if not for the intervention of Zade.The dude appeared the moment I thought about him, all smiles. His face looked the same to everyone so they missed the ugly bruise at the side of the head."What happened?" I asked him once we were close to each other.He almost choked on his drink, "What do you mean?" He asked, after he dropped the wineglass on the table while staring at me intensely.I nodded my head towards the centre of attraction, "What happened there?
Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter One hundred and Seventeen - You're the perfect mother
Isabella's point of view."He's close to this place," Jason repeated because I said nothing the first time.He probably thought I didn't hear him.Cameron almost died. Cameron sent the anonymous tip. Cameron heard our conversation then."How does he know this place?" I asked confused, my eyes darting around because I felt like Zachary would appear out of any of the walls.Jason sighed, his hand moved to the back of his neck. A sure sign of nervousness."Mom knows about this place. I couldn't believe mom was the female helping him, I mean, I can't even understand it. She probably sent that tip to the police or whatever," Jason said, he was trying to appear strong but his eyes gave how tired and heartbroken he was, "I don't understand why she would do this to me.""Because she wasn't the one, she didn't do this."He looked at me, confusion was written all over his face, "What do you mean? She was working with Zachary to get...."I didn't get a chance to explain it to him because someone
Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter One hundred and Sixteen - He's close
Isabella's point of view.Jason's phone ringing was the alarm that woke us up that morning. Jason tried to find his phone with his eyes still still firmly shut, and missed multiple times.When I couldn't take it anymore, I found the phone myself."Hello," I said, a bit harshly and much more rudely than I intended, "Why are you calling my husband at..." I had to remove the phone from my ear so I could look at the time, "...six in the morning. He's asleep."Jason's hand squeezed my thigh, "I love it when you're so dominant," He said, his voice was laced heavily with sleep.No one said anything at the other end for a whole minute. I wondered why I didn't end the call at that point."Haven't you seen the news? Jason's face is literally everywhere and I'm pretty sure the police would be on his tail soon," Zade's voice was the next thing I heard, it felt like he was talking from the other side of the room, "Get out of that penthouse and run."And then the call ended. Jason must have heard
Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter One Hundred and Fifteen - Healed at last
Isabella's point of view.It took two whole days for me to become a semi normal human again, even though I had issues. It took two whole days for me to get rid of all the alcohol I had in my system, without going for another. It took two whole days to promise myself that I would continue to be happy, because Amethyst needed a mother. Not a drunk angry woman who couldn't forgive herself.The journey back to self love wasn't going to be an easy one, but I would do anything for my family.Mom and Jacqueline travelled from Paris back to town once they heard I would be receiving visitors now. They were so happy to see me and so was I, to see them.I wasn't even that surprised that Jacqueline had dyed her hair pink."When you have a family that wants you to be the best, the best wife, the best kid, the best of anything, you learn of new ways to disappoint them," She said then leaned in to continue the sentence, "Especially if you didn't make them traumatized when you were a teenager."That
Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter One Hundred and Fourteen- Jason's own trauma
Jason's point of view."You'll be discharged on probation due to the only witness having a faulty memory," The lawyer told Dude during our short visit to the prison, "That's enough to get you released on probation at least."That happened the day after we found Meda. I was still a bit out of it, the whole conversation, the reward I promised Dude if he helped me find my wife. I just wanted to go back to the hospital.Dude stood up and shook the hand of the lawyer, "Thank you very much. I appreciate it," He said, the grin on his face was so wide and bright. It made me almost want to smile as well. Once the lawyer was gone, the smile disappeared from my face."That lawyer is from one of the best firms in the US. I'm sure he would do his best to get you out of here so don't worry," I sighed, before I got up from my own chair and stretched my hand towards him.Dude was a slim guy. He had no muscles and was never known for his strength to win fights. Instead he won with his brain, calculat
Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter One Hundred And Thirteen - Something is clearly wrong with me
Isabella's point of view."What happened to you?" Jason asked the moment he saw me, as I walked into the penthouse.My face was swollen, my lips had bruises all over and I was pretty sure I had a black eye or perhaps two. I was hurt all over. And my clothes were torn at the most unfortunate of places.I couldn't go to a store to get a new cloth. And there was none in my car so I basically had to do the walk of shame just to come home.And the first person I see is Jason. Oh goodness."Who did this to you? Why didn't you call me?" He kept on asking questions upon questions, which checking each and every bruise, "We need to take you to the hospital...."I took my hand from him and huffed. I had no reason to go to the hospital. Cameron wasn't a vicious fighter, she was in a worse shape than me. And she was able to get just a few strong punches in.I did the greater work."Leave me alone please, there's nothing you can do about this so just let it be," I said, smiled a bit at him while I
Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter One hundred and Twelve - Trauma runs deep
Isabella's point of view.Jason got us another penthouse in another apartment complex that wasn't owned by him. Furnished it to my satisfaction. And also made sure that he told me nothing about the whole security cameras in the house.If there was any, I had no idea about them."You can't seem to process what happened that day, you keep on getting flashbacks" The therapist Jason got for me said, she smiled like we were some kind of old friends.Her bubbly personality was a fresh start from most of the tensed people I met recently. I felt like they were holding themselves back from talking about the whole traumatizing case.They had no idea I was even pregnant. No one knew about that pregnancy but Jason and I.I nodded, my head bowed down so I could look at my entwined fingers.I had no idea what to say to a woman like this. I had no idea how she was going to help me recover from the trauma.Was it even right for me to be traumatized? I mean, yes, I lost my baby but I didn't even know
Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter One hundred and Eleven - Make me forget
Isabella's point of view."She would have to stay in the hospital for one more day. We need to run a few more tests and make sure she's fully physically okay before we allow her out," The doctor spoke to Jason, few metres away from me, "We want her at her best."I pretended like I didn't hear what they said. Or I pretended like I didn't see them when they talked about me.It helped me. It calmed my mind. If I didn't see them, then I wouldn't have to accept that my baby was actually gone.Lost. It was a miracle I survived.And after everything the only thing I got as a reward, after meeting up with Zachary and allowing him to take me, I couldn't even get him for his crimes. All I got was my baby dead.Because of me."Mummy, look at what I drew," Amethyst cried out from where she sat, on a chair close to my bed.I forced a smile onto my lips, "That's nice Thyst, draw something else now," I said, barely taking a glance at the drawing.If anyone truly asked me what I wanted, I was scared
Stuck with Mr Billionaire Chapter One hundred and Ten - The baby
Isabella's point of view.I swear my head hurt like a bitch when I woke up, all I could see were blinding white lights everywhere and sometimes the occasional doctor with their white coats.I went in and out of consciousness and every time, I woke up at a different time of the day.Sometimes I saw Jason, sometimes he hovered on me, other times he was screaming for the doctor. But I heard him, multiple times.I heard him when he talked to me every time. The sweet words he said to me while he caressed my forehead, the kisses he placed there and sometimes, when I felt really strong, I tried my best to squeeze his hand.There was a time I heard a child speaking. I was pretty sure it was Amethyst because of how soft she had spoken. She had begged me to wake up for her and I tried, I really tried.I just couldn't. And then I slipped out of consciousness again.This time, I was determined to remain conscious.The doctor by my side smiled kindly at me, "Oh Mrs Wells, you're awake," He touched
