Isabel's heart sunk at the sight of the so-called savior.

How could she forget about the man who had taken her captive because he adoptive father owed him?

The man who'd tried to force her to become his mistress, to pay up the man's debt.

Sebastian Bernadotte.

She despised the man, and after the last time their paths crossed, she vowed never cross path with him ever.

He was the reason she became wary and apathetic towards rich people. She saw them through the lens she'd viewed him with.

Narcissistic and snobbish.

She pulled away from the man almost immediately, seeing the devilish glint sparking in his eyes.

The way he was looking at her now, was no different to the way he'd looked at her that night..He was staring at her lewdly, like a predator that has found an easy prey.

    Isabel wasn't her self the whole day, and even when she went to pick Reynolds from school, the boy noticed her anxiety."What's wrong, Mommy? You seem worried." The boy asked her, as they drove home.She looked through the rearview mirror, flashing him a faux smile,"I'm fine, Rey--""You are lying, Mommy. You are worried about something, I can sense it." His tone was unemotional, even as he stared intently at her."Did anyone get you into trouble?""No, Honey." She said in her most convincing tone, widening her smile,"I've baking all day, and because there were lots of customers at the cafe. Mommy's just tired, that's all.""Why can't they go home and eat, instead of stressing you to bake more treats for them?"She smiled, amused at his seemingly innocence."They can't, because mommy needs their patronage." She explained to the boy, "Is it to take care of me?"Isabel nodded, stealing a glance at him, then she returned her attention to the road ahead of her."Mommy needs to work h

    The first question Reynolds asked Isabel after he entered her bedroom and closed the door behind him, was,"Why were you crying, Mommy and what is he doing here?"Sebastian turned to the boy with creased brows, unable to fathom something to say about the second question."I wasn't crying, Rey." Isabel lied to the boy, coming out of the bathroom with water sprinkled on her face. She masked the discomfort she was feeling with a smile, as she approached the boy.She could tell he wasn't buying her lie, judging from how he was looking at her like she was an errant child."Mister---I mean, your father and I were having some grownups conversation." She forced a smile, stopping in front of the boy who wasn't still convinced by her reply."Baby," she took his hands into her, staring affectionately into his brown eyes, "mommy's fine.""Yes, your mommy is fine." Sebastian added from where he was standing, a tinge of jealousy lacing his tone.Both Reynolds and Isabel turned to him,"I am n

    Despite Austin's subtle objection, Isabel accepted the package sent from the delivery guy, and she carried it into the house, but did not open it.She dropped it on the dining table and left without sparing it a second glance."I don't understand why you won't let me deal with the bastard." Austin was still fuming,"He needs to be taught a lesson, after everything he has done.""Austin, I don't want you to get involved in a rivalry with Sebastian. It is not worth it." She advised him,"Sebastian is the worst person you'd want to get into a feud with, and I wouldn't want you to get hurt because of me.""I am not scared of him, Isabel and you shouldn't be.

    Sebastian stood in the hallway, his eyes fixed on the closed bedroom door, Reynolds was knocking against, his mind reeling with regret and guilt. He felt like he'd been punched in the gut, his breath knocked out of him.He thought about the look on Isabel's face, the shock, the anger, the hurt. He knew he'd broken her trust, shattered the foundation of their relationship. He couldn't blame her that she hated him, and if she chose to leave him, he deserved worst.Reynolds stopped knocking and turned to him,"Daddy, she won't open the door." The boy inveighed,"What did you do to her?"His eyes dropped to the floor, his shoulders slumping under the weight of his guilt. He felt like he was drowning in a sea of regret, unable to keep his head above water.He wished he could bring himself to tell his sons the truth, but they would hate him even more than Isabel does now. They would despise him, knowing he was the cause of their mother's loss and misery.And once his whole family

    Before Sebastian could say anything else, she ended the call, clenching her fist tightly.Isabel was having the strong urge to haul her phone against the wall, but she restrained herself, knowing the damage it will cause the phone, which was purchased barely three days ago.She burst out of her closet, slamming the door behind her. She strode across her bedroom, her feet pounding the floor in frustration. She felt like she was going to explode, her emotions boiling over like a pot left unattended on the stove.She flung open her bedroom door and stormed out into the hallway, not sure where she was going, but knowing she needed to get out of there. In fact, she didn't want to see Sebastian even if he teleported himself home right that moment.That was how mad she was at him.She paced down the hall, her hands clenched into fists, her mind racing with thoughts and feelings she couldn't process.She was livid, but the rest emotions she couldn't process accurately.How dare that bit

I need to attend to something very important.""Okay, ma'am. I will forwards the inventories to you now.""Thanks, dear. Send my regards to everyone.""I will, and my regards to Reynolds and your father.

Did anything happen? And where is your younger brother?"Oliver was first to speak up,"Reynolds is in the bedroom, trying to solve some mathematical equati

    The day of the hearing finally came and Sebastian was ready.He'd Miranda, his secretary postpone every appointment he'd during the time of the hearing. He was determined to be there, since the man's sentence also meant justifying Isabel and all the women he'd sexually assaulted.Surprisingly, the courtroom was almost filled, and there were plenty of reporters scattered everywhere.Being one of the hotshots in the city, with lots of recognition, everyone was hungry for firsthand information about the judge's verdict on Damien Giddorti's case, since he'd pled not-guilty to the charges against him.Wearing a turquoise shirt which was nicely tucked into a pair of gray golf pants, and a black sunshade to cover his eyes, Sebastian blended into the croud, taking a seat on the fourth to last row. He didn't want to be recognized by the press, and have them shove their microphones and cameras in his face, asking him questions he'd no intentions of answering.With his choice of dressing, he was

    Two days later, Shakira was still on the run. Sebastian had his men scattered all over the city, in search for her, but they was no sign of her. Even when he tried to use her father to bait her, yet she did not show up."How disappointing that your only daughter would rather have you suffering, than turn herself in." He spat disappointedly, looking at the man and his wife."Chester, you should be shameful of the kind of child you've raised. One who'd rather watch you die, than take responsibility for her doings."The man did not say anything, neither did his wife.Of course, they were disappointed that their daughter, whom they've raised properly would be capable of kidnapping a child and hiding the child under the roof, making them look like accomplice to the crime.Who wouldn't?Chester knew that had the girl not been his only child, he would've allowed her bear the brunt of her actions, without any hesitation. However, those admonitions were reserved for later. Now, he was proud

    Isabel woke up quite early the next morning, after not having much sleep, only to be faced with the information that they were moving."Where, and why?""Ma'am, I cannot say why, but that was the order we received this morning from Mr. Bernadotte." Brittany explained to her, going to keep her freshly pressed laundries in her closet."And where is he?"Anger was building inside her, although she tried to keep her voice down and neutral, because the boys were still sleeping."I think sir is in his study now.""Okay."He must have a reasonable reason. He'd better.She calmed herself, looking at her sons who were still sleeping peacefully. Alexander was sprawled on his end, his limbs thrown everywhere, including on Oliver's body.She chuckled softly, amused at his careless sleeping position, which reminded her of hers, according to Sebastian."You're one heck of a careless sleeper, Isabel, but I'd rather sleep with you by my side, than anyone else."
