MAXWELL'S POV I found a note behind the painting.‘Dear Max, it's your mother. You might find this note a little into the future, but when you do, I want you to know that your dad meant the best for you. We will be taking a trip to see your great grandma for a few days, so we won't be in contact throughout that period. Take good care of your wife.’You've got to be kidding me.I picked up my phone and called her immediately.“The number you have dialed is not reachable at the moment, please try again later.” The automated voice blared into my ears. I groaned, hanging up.Of all the times to visit great grandma, it was now. I stared at the last sentence. ‘Take good care of your wife.’ As if she could see me from the note.At least, I was trying.Speaking of which, I had to attend a wedding. I grabbed my coat and dashed out of the office. “Sir!” Janice called abruptly.“Send it to my email.” I replied, not paying her any attention.“Oh…okay.”I wasn't in the mood for any meetings and

ISABELLA'S POV If Maxwell was good at anything, it was messing miles with my feelings. Like it was a natural talent he had developed and used it at every slightest opportunity.I was all jitters when I walked into his room, only to find him not there. I could hear the faint running of water in the shower, and it sent chills down my spine. He was…in the bathroom..Before I could process my thoughts, he walked out, only in a towel. Water dripped down from his hair, and the droplets on his chest and torso made it almost impossible to look away. His gray eyes shone in the afternoon sun as he examined me. This man was beyond breathtaking. I swallowed, hard.“Go get dressed. We have a couple of hours.” He commanded softly. I basically ran out of the room, and took a moment to catch my breath. Why was I getting so worked up over him?I shook my head, regained my footing and walked towards my room. I had completely lost track of time.Will two hours be enough to get ready? I hadn't even fo

MAXWELL'S POV “We are so glad you could make it Maxwell. It's a shame I haven't seen your mom.” Mrs Bradford, the mother of the groom, welcomed me as soon as she saw me. Her son, Tristan, was one very peculiar young man. I myself was surprised when mom told me they were getting married. Tristan was quiet, but dangerous as hell. He behaved like a psychopath, only responding when it was necessary.His speech was short and concise, always straight to the point.It was one reason I liked him so much.But marriage?Tristan was never one to talk about marriage. This woman was probably forced on him, the same way my parents forced Hannah on me.“I'll extend your greetings to them Mrs Bradford.” I said, returning her handshake. “Such a fine young gentleman. I hear you're married. Is that correct?” She asked, a strange tone in her voice. I almost rolled my eyes.“Yes, I am. In fact, she is seated right over there.” I turned around, and pointed to where Hannah was seated. She was facing someo

ISABELLA'S POV I lingered at the threshold of the grand ballroom, my hands anxiously worrying a fold in the silk fabric of my dress. Periodically, guests mingled and chatted below the glittering grandeur above. The senator's son's mother had given her handsome son away and now she was pulling certain guests up onto the stage to share in a special dance with them. My heart sank when my name was called with Maxwell. I kind of expected it, I am his wife, and he is one of the VIPs of the event.A wave of self-consciousness washed over me. It was an exclusive wedding and the elites of high society had turned up for it in droves. Maxwell grasped my arm in a hand whose tremble went unnoticed on his usually composed features. Guess I wasn't the only one who was rattled.“Relax,” Maxwell said, irritated. "We’ll get this over with.”As we stepped onto the stage, I tried my best to smile. Maxwell was not touted for his smooth charm or soothing demeanor, and I kinda doubted he ever danced in thi

ISABELLA'S POV “Time to go, Keiran.” Maxwell said, obviously irritated.Keiran raised hand up in surrender, backing away with a strange grin.Hm.The music played on, and I forced a smile, lightly resting my hand on the table. My stomach had started churning minutes ago, but I kept brushing it off. I thought it was just nerves or maybe the champagne. The lights in the room seemed a bit too bright, and the air too thick, making it harder for me to focus.Maxwell must have noticed my discomfort , because he leaned in, his voice low as he spoke, “You’re quiet tonight. Everything okay?”I blinked, trying to steady my breathing. I couldn’t admit that I felt off. Not here, not now, and definitely not in front of him. “I’m fine,” I replied, trying my best to smile. But as the processions with the wedding continued, the sensation became harder to ignore. What did I eat? What was going on? My stomach twisted sharply, and I swallowed hard, trying to keep myself composed.I couldn’t shake it a

MAXWELL'S POV My eyes followed Hannah's form as she dashed off. I flicked my gaze back to Kieran, who was standing with his hands casually tucked into the pockets of his tailored suit. The tension between us was thick, even if no one around us noticed.The steady thrum of music in the background filled the silence. I furrowed my brow slightly, shifting my focus towards him.“So,” Kieran began, his tone a little light. I glared at him. “That went well. Couldn’t keep her out there any longer, huh?”My smirk didn’t reach my eyes. “You think this is funny, Kieran?” My voice was low, controlled. “I don’t have time for jokes. You know that.”Kieran shrugged nonchalantly. “I’m not laughing, am I? Just making an observation. That’s what I’m here for, right? Observing… and digging. It doesn't help that you stood me up the other time.” He let the words hang in the air for a moment, gauging my reaction.I clenched my jaw. “ You're still gonna get that match.” And I'll fucking break your teeth.

MAXWELL'S POV One thing Maxwell didn't want was to deal with a drunk Hannah. Yet, here she was, in the passenger seat, singing along to a song that wasn’t even playing.He sighed, glancing at her out of the corner of his eye. Her cheeks were flushed, and her usually pristine hair was slightly tousled. She leaned her head back, eyes closed, a content smile on her lips.“Maxwell,” she murmured, her voice dreamy and slurred, “do you ever think about what it would be like… to just let go?”Maxwell’s hands tightened on the steering wheel. “Let go of what, Hannah?”She turned her head to look at him, her expression serious in that exaggerated way only someone intoxicated could manage. “Let go of all the rules. You’re always so… controlled. It’s like you’re afraid to have any fun.”He gave a noncommittal grunt, trying to focus on the road. “Someone has to be in control.”She giggled, a sound that was both charming and dangerous. “But not tonight. Tonight, you should let go… just a little.”

ARTHUR POVThings didn't go as we planned.We waited in the darkness of the garden, watching the taillights of Maxwell and Hannah’s car fade into the distance. Or as I'd like to call her, Isabella.I found it funny how that woman was able to fool Maxwell. Then again, he wasn't as observant as I thought.My muscles tensed, and adrenaline had begun to flow freely in my veins. Why was I feeling like this? I had done numerous heists before, so what the hell? It felt like everything hinged on this moment.A part of me also felt that tonight wasn't gonna go so well.“Let’s go.” Korra whispered, staring at the house with a weird expression.We moved quickly, slipping through the back door and into the kitchen. I must say, this is a very nice place. She led the way, moving like she basically owner the place. I couldn’t shake the feeling that there was a lot she probably knew, and wasn't saying.For the fact that she just decided to help me…No.That was something I'd deal with later.We reach
