CHAPTER 65
Last Updated:
2020-11-28 06:34:29When Billy entered the house, he looked around to see where Belle and Shawn were. He didn't want to disturb them, maybe they had finally been able to understand what they were feeling for each other. Even if what he was feeling for Belle was more than just a friendship, Billy was aware that Belle would never be his woman, that she would never feel for him the love she was feeling for Shawn. Yes, his cousin was treating her badly, most of the times he was patronizing her, and sometimes, he was particularly aggressive with her, but Billy knew Shawn was doing it in order to realize if he was falling in love with a new Jennifer or if Belle was truly the perfect woman made for him.
Billy walked around the house and decided to go to the kitchen to hear from Rosa where his cousin and Belle were. But there was no one in the kitchen, not even the

“You did what?” Billy asked in a perplexed voice."Exactly what you heard. Then I called at the ranch and I spoke to her ‘dear daddy’ to whom I’ve explained that I know all about his plans." Shawn stared at Billy prudently. “Billy, Andrew Baldwin is broke, penniless… he did some bad business and lost all his money years ago. That's why he's pushing his daughter into your arms. But I put an end to it, don't worry. The phone call I made to him this afternoon solved this problem. From now on, he will stay away from this place and from all of us.” Billy could no longer control his anger and he exploded. Without warning, he hit Shawn in the face and threw him on the ground. Perplexed, Marie covered her mouth so as not to shout and Chris looked at them totally upset. He had neve

Shawn heard footsteps behind him and turned to see Billy enter the room followed by James and an old woman who was looking at them completely stunned. It had to be the old housekeeper, the one who usually took care of the house and of the Baldwins. She went over to Isabelle and took her hand in hers.“I just called 9-1-1. They'll be here any minute now,” Billy said to him and he also came near Shawn. “I also called dad, to get him to contact the sheriff. Better to have him here too.” None of them was paying attention to Andrew; they didn't notice that he wasn’t moving or saying anything."Before fainting, Isabelle told me she doesn't want to go to the hospital... She said something about a doctor called... Jones?!” Shawn sai

Dr. Jones exchanged a couple of words with the paramedics and then his gaze moved to the chair where Andrew's lifeless body was still staying. He felt someone touching his shoulder. It was a man he hadn’t seen before; he was very young and particularly worried about what was happening. His hands were covered in blood.“Are you Dr. Jones?”“Yes, I am...”"Isabelle asked about you, probably because... she was much more worried about that killer than she was about herself," the man added, looking with hatred towards Andrew. “Doctor, help Isabelle, please!”“I’ll do what I can but… who are you?”"I am Shawn Grayson, and I think I'm guilty of everything that happened to Belle,

The old lady was still very worried about leaving Belle with that man, but she accepted Billy's offer. The doctor said to Shawn that he had to go back to the hospital to do a couple of very important post-surgery rounds, but he promised that he would return as soon as possible to visit Isabelle and see how she was. Downstairs, everything was fine now. James along with a couple of boys from the stables had taken away the carpet stained with Isabelle’s blood and had opened the window a little to allow the breeze to clear the room fromthe stench of death. Shawn took a chair and sat down at Isabelle’s bedside. The room was small, but now it was clean and well organized. One could see that it was her room... everything in

Billy said hello to his father as he joined Shawn outside."Belle is slowly regaining consciousness," he said."Is she talking?" Shawn asked, turning abruptly to his cousin.“No, the pain is making her whine. The wounds are very painful.”“Dr. Jones said he will be back in a few hours to check on her and to medicate her again. Maybe he'll give her some sedative to stop the pain.” Billy nodded and leaned back against the entrance door. He raised his head and looked at the stars.“You know that everything that had happened will become everyone's favorite gossip in a few days. Mom told me that when Belle's mom died, the people

Shawn wasn't sure he heard Isabelle's words well. He got even closer to her. He needed to look her in the eye.“Excuse me... What did you just ask me?” he said perfectly aware of the four pairs of eyes that were behind him and watching the scene carefully.“Hmm ... I asked you who you are," Isabelle replied still a little confused. She touched her head and a moan escaped her lips. "My head hurts so much and I still can't understand where I am and why everything hurts..." she added.“You mean you don't recognize me at all?” he insisted gazing at her totally perplexed. She looked straight at him, carefully watching anything about him. The man in front of her was absolutely gorgeous, handsome as a g

They went up the stairs together and the doctor started giving to Billy some details about the two forms of amnesia he had mentioned earlier. Together they entered Isabelle's room where he was expected by four very silent, resigned people and his patient. He kindly asked everyone to go out and leave him alone with his patient.“Hello, Isabelle! I'm Dr. Peter Jones. How are you feeling?”"I remember you, we met at the hospital for some reason that I... I don't remember," she answered smiling. “Well, let's say that altogether, I'm doing fine, even if my back hurts and I still feel a little dizzy..." She stopped and looked at him with a frown on her face. “I remember… my father...” she said softly when unclear and unpleasant memories began to invade her mind. “He was hitting me...” she added, starting to

After Peter closed the door to Isabelle's room, he turned and saw in front of him a small group of people staring at him quite anxious.“I have good news. Isabelle has partially regained her memory,” he started slowly. “But even so, she is still very weak. That's why I told her she doesn't have my permission to go to Andrew's funeral and I told her that you’ve decided to take her to your house. At first, she didn't agree, but the thought of having Lucy with her reassured her quite a bit. Leaving this place is a very important step, so she needs to have a familiar face near her.“Tomorrow I will bring the limousine to take her to the villa as comfortable as possible,” Billy said in a tone that wasn’t taking a ‘no’ for an answer. “Doctor, you said she partially regained her memory... What does she r

She felt slightly embarrassed; Shawn's words made her shiver a little, catching her off guard. She tightened her bridle and the horse became nervous. He took a few steps back and almost threw her on the ground. Totally worried, Shawn jumped off his horse and, quickly, calmed Isabelle's horse down. He continued to caress and talk to him slowly until the animal stopped moving and being agitated. Isabelle was still shaking even though her horse was much calmer. Shawn helped her get down and held her hand as they walked away from the two horses that began to graze, unaware of what was going on. Isabelle had been so impressed with the way Shawn had handled the situation, with his self-control, that seeing his pale face and feeling his hand shaking as he held onto hers, left her perplexed."My love, are you a

"You are not capable of doing such a thing, my angel," he replied smiling tenderly. "The way you give in to my every caress is as real as my love for you." Again, they started riding next to each other. Shawn's opinion of her had left Isabelle totally surprised. She smiled softly and her gaze moved to the ring he had put on her finger. She was officially engaged to Shawn and was about to become Mrs. Grayson. She loved him very much, that's why she felt the need to tell him the story of her father's will. He had been so honest with her; it was time for her to do the same thing."You know, the engagement ring I gave you, belonged to my mother. It's one of the few memories I still have of her. I am happy to see it on your finger.""Oh, I didn't know... Shawn, are you sure of what are we going to do? You marry

When she heard the words'my future wife', Danielle felt like she was about to faint... No, she couldn't lose him! She wasn't ready to let him go! Besides, Shawn was a gentleman, she knew he wouldn't do anything to her. Those were only empty words meant to scare her off, but she already had an idea of how to respond to him. Danielle got up from her chair, took her bag, and started walking to the door. Before getting out of his office, she turned to him."One way or another, you will come back to me! This doesn't end here!" she added and went out slamming the door. Shawn took a deep breath and tried to go back to his usual self. Danielle had always been such a drama queen, so it was better not to pay any more attention to her. He had other things to do and then he wanted to go back to his Belle and spend the day with her. He pulled out

Whistling and smiling happily as never before, Shawn entered his office and sat down at his desk. He still had some small details to fix, he had to meet with the interior designer who had to prepare his apartment for Isabelle's arrival, and then he would return to his beloved. Shawn heard loud voices outside his office. Someone was arguing... it was the voice of a woman who, unfortunately, he had immediately recognized. It was Danielle and she was asking to enter Shawn's office right away. Shawn got up abruptly from his chair and went to get her and take her inside before making a spectacle of herself."What the hell are you doing here, Danielle?!" he said in a low voice. He took her by the arm and ordered her to enter. Shawn closed the door behind them, but when he turned to her, Danielle was close to him, trying to kiss him. "What are you doing? Are you insane?""You can't leave me

Isabelle raised her head and moved away from Lucy enough for the woman to look her in the eye and understand that she would never choose to marry Shawn if she wasn't desperately in love with him."Lucy, I really love Shawn Grayson. I have always loved him, since that day, at my mom's funeral, when I saw him for the first time. I would never be able to do such a thing; you know it very well. You taught me better than that!" She got up from the couch and went to the window. Still worried, Lucy continued to look at her. Isabelle was like a daughter to her and didn't want her to make the wrong choice."Dear, until yesterday, you were saying that you didn't need a man to make it happen...""And I don't, Lucy. I made my choices, but what I didn't unde

Isabelle stared at him rather perplexed, unable to fully understand what Christopher Grayson was saying to her."After what happened to your mother, your father and I, we took our separate paths, and I pushed away from my head those plans to bring our families together. But your father didn't, he always tried to make me understand how right you would be for my son, Billy." Chris smiled slightly embarrassed. "When your father called me a few weeks ago to remind me of this understanding that we had, I told him that this isn't our decision to make, that my boys and you were no longer kids, but adults who could choose for themselves that one special person.""That's why my father always insisted that I marry Billy, that's why the whole clause thing..." Isabelle added, getting up from her chair quite suddenly."What clause ar

Someone knocked lightly on her door and Isabelle smiled. She already knew who that person was, she had no doubt about it. The beating of her heart was proof that on the other side of the door it was the love of her life. She opened slowly, without making too much noise, then she took his hand and pulled him into her room.“I’ve missed you so much! After last tonight, staying away even for a few hours makes me insane!” he whispered. “Oh, my love...” She had heard those words a thousand times last night, but now, in the light of day, it was as if he was saying them to her for the first time. A strong emotion took hold of her body and her mind. Isabelle approached Shawn and passed her arms around his neck pulling him towards her. He smiled sweetly, got closer, and kissed her lightly. Shawn's lips linger

Isabelle remained speechless. His mouth let out those words and Shawn's eyes showed to her exactly the same thing. For a few seconds, Shawn looked at her, totally lost in those blue eyes, in the emotion of the moment, in the love he was feeling for her. Then he began to gently caress the curves he hadn't forgotten for a moment. Isabelle's body surrendered in front of his sweet attack. Isabelle undressed him and he willingly let her do it."I'll take care of you now," he said helping her to sit on the bed. Shawn closed the door and returned immediately to her. He leaned towards Isabelle and kissed her breasts. “Brace yourself, my love, because what I want to do to you will take us a lot of time...” Shawn's hands returned to tease her warm skin, they got lost in the ocean of her silky

She wanted to touch his face, to remove all that suffering that he was feeling. Shawn had hurt her in a dreadful way, but she didn't stop him. She loved him then as she was loving him now, in this instant. Shawn was so helpless, so sad, so desperate, so... human like she never saw him before.“I'm oknow, Shawn. I’m much stronger and I feel all right,” Belle replied smiling slightly. He looked at her and Isabelle saw tears in his eyes.“Yes, you are. And it's so good to see you standing on your feet, ready to move on, to build your new life. I just hope you will include me too... Marry me, my beautiful, brave, wonderful Belle!” Hearing his spontaneous proposal, Isabelle
