In the school,
"What about you? Did you finish the assignment this time? Or did you finish and leave it in your house?" Evelyn teased me.
"I finished it! Surprise!"
"How in the world is it possible?"
"Because I became brainy all of a sudden" And laughed.
When I looked at Sophia, she was writing something in the notebook and Liam on the other side was on his phone.
Noah jumped in front of me and said, "Hey! Come with me." And grabbed my hand.
"To where?"
"To the music club. They're holding a meeting for the basketball club and music club. It's regarding the event. Let's go."
"I didn't submit my assignment yet."
"The teacher wasn't here yet. Give your assignment to Sophia as I did."

Isabella's pov;I yawned when I entered Mr Martinez's room. He was sitting on his bed, typing on his laptop. Probably, he's working.I approached him, sat next to the chair, and let out another yawn."Are you exhausted?" He asked. "Yeah, I had practice today," I answered, leaning back in my chair."Practice?""Didn't I say that? Sorry, I thought you'd figured it out when Big Brother ran a background check on me.""He's like that," he remarked."I'm a member of my school's basketball team. We had a lot of practice today because we have a tournament tomorrow.""A basketball player?""Do I not look like one?""No," he responded with a smile."Why are you being so direct, Mr Martinez?""Is it wrong?""Not really, but it could cause problems at some point. Not everyone thinks the same way. You've heard of it, right?""Yeah. But, because of this, we can see how people regard me.""What do you mean 'because of this,' does it indicate you're trying to be direct but aren't?""'Kinda' in your l

Isabella's pov;"What happened?" Mr Martinez approached me as I stood like a mannequin in front of the basketball court."I-I saw her, Sophia...""Sophia?" He looked around while asking me."She walked away.""Follow her.""Should I do it? What if she ignores me?""Just leave already.""Okay. Thank you very much."I dashed out of the basketball court after Sophia.I crossed her while walking alongside the playground."Sophia! Sophia! Sophia!" I yelled out her name but she didn't respond to me."Stop!" I yelled as I grabbed her hand."What exactly do you want?" She gave a sour expression."I'm sorry, please don't avoid me," I hugged her."Bella..." She attempted to break the hug, but I wouldn't let her and said, "Please don't try to avoid me.""Would you like to be friends again?""Yes!" I said as I broke the embrace."Break that deal.""What?""You heard me. Cancel that deal, and I'll be your friend once again. I miss you as well. So, please terminate the contract as soon as possible."

Liam's pov;I couldn't sit still in my seat after seeing Bella rush out of the class. My mind was racing with questions such as, 'Why did she run out of class like that?' 'What happened to make her rush like that?' 'Where is she fleeing to?'"Do you know what happened?" Noah prodded me.Why does he believe I know everything there is to know about Bella?"No idea," I responded, shaking my head."Should we go after her to find out?" Noah wondered."Guys in the back bench, silent," Mr Brett yelled."Guys, what are you talking about?" Evelyn questioned as she turned to face us."Concerning the pursuit of Isabella. I believe she is in trouble. Anyway, we're off. Will you accompany us?" Noah responded."Don't you see we're right in the middle of class?""Let's go, bro," Noah said as he turned to face me.Evelyn inquired of Sophia, "Liam and Noah are on the hunt for Bella. Should we also go meet her?"Mr Brett yelled at us before Sophia responded, "Back row students! Silence!""Sir, I need to

Jenny's pov;"Did you obtain all of the names for the group show?" Chris inquired while I was reviewing the participant list."I did that.""Okay. Don't forget to give it to the secretary.""Got it!"Chris left once I handed him the name list."Jenny!"My name was called. I turned to look at the person whose cute voice I had heard. Yuyang is one of my piano pupils in the class where I'm learning the instrument. I, too, am a student. Because I am a senior in piano, the teacher entrusted me with several second and third graders.I got down to her level and inquired, "What exactly are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be practising for the dance performance?""However, because the teacher did not show up for class, others sent me to get you.""Okay, I'll be there in a minute. First and foremost, get to your class."She nodded and bolted out.Because today is the music event, I was also appointed to supervise the dance performance of the second and third graders.I went to the soloist

Ava Devlin's pov;I noticed Isabella alone as I was watching the soloist performance event. I approached her and tapped on her shoulder."Ms Devlin?" She inquired.I took a glance around and asked her, "Where have your pals gone? Why are you standing here by yourself?""Noah is practising in court, Sophia and Evelyn took leave, and Liam was probably around here somewhere.""Does that imply you have nothing to do right now?""Kinda...""Then assist me with this. Because your niece has yet to arrive, could you please contact your brother and inquire as to when she will arrive?""All right."She took a step away from me and dialled a phone number. I believe she is calling her brother.After a while, she approached me, and I asked her, "What did he say?""He said he'd be there soon, Ms Devlin.""I appreciate your assistance."I went backstage before the event started and talked with the participants about the event and encouraged them. As one of the event organisers, I am in charge of cert

Alexander Martinez pov;"Ms Garcia hasn't been to school for a week, Sir." Mr Johnson informed me about Isabella when I inquired about her whereabouts because she had not visited the house recently."What about the cafe where she was working as a part-timer?""I went to the cafe by myself and discovered that she hadn't been there in a week, Sir."She hasn't gone to school, hasn't gone to work, hasn't come to my house... what is she doing in her house?"Shall I go to her residence and check on her in person, Sir?" Mr Johnson continued."Wait, I'll come with you too," I answered with a nod."I can bring her here by myself, Sir. You don't have to work hard for this.""I'm not asking for your permission, let's go," I remarked as I rose up and exited my room.I went to Isabella's house to see her, but the driver came to a halt in the middle of the avenue intersection."Why are we stopping here?" I inquired of the driver."The route to Ms Garcia's residence was not fit for driving a car on,

Mr Martinez pov;"Ms Garcia has awoken, Sir. Should I take her to your room?" "There is no necessity. I'll go by myself."I rose from my seat, exited the study area, and went to Isabella's room.When the locked doors opened wide by the butler, I spotted Isabella standing at the window. I signalled the butler to close the door behind me and leave.When I got closer to Isabella, I noticed she was staring at the garden."What exactly are you looking at?"When she heard me, she flinched, sighed, and asked, "Why do you like gardening, Mr Martinez?" Asked while admiring the garden."I'm not sure, but when I focus on some things, it helps me forget about other things.""Other things in what way?""Take, for example, business challenges."She nodded and returned her gaze to the garden."It's strange to see you that way.""Like what?""This particular one. The quiet type.""When people can't figure out what's going on around them, they go mute.""But it doesn't sound like you."She fixed her g

Alexander Martinez's pov;During an office meeting,"Sir, our company's stock profits have more than doubled from the previous three months. Sir, you came up with a wonderful concept in forming a collaboration with FY business." Mr. Hayes stated.I nodded and listened to the meeting attendees."The GU firm has submitted offers for the partnership contract. I've heard that GU is a well-known cosmetics company. I'm confident that if we accept their deal, our company will become well-known around the world." Mr. Smith stated."I'll consider it. Anyone else want to speak up?"Mr Tony began, "The Rodriguez corporation has lately suffered a loss, if we hire people from that company, we will have more employees than they do, Sir. Because you worked there previously, the employees will accept your proposal and work for Martinez Corporation.""Are we running out of employees?" "No, Sir."I stood up and said, "I founded this company on trust. And I'd like for everyone to be a part of it. Listen

Isabella's pov;Noah, Evelyn, Sophia, Carey, Liam, Jenny and I gathered at Sophia's house since Mr Martinez's house was surrounded by the cops."Why did you ask me to bring these things?" I said as I dropped the bag on the floor. "Do we really require this?""If we're going to rescue someone, we have to be prepared when the attackers come for us," Noah explained."Why do you sound like we're in a crime movie?" Sophia inquired of Noah.I took six walkie talkies, gave one to each of us, and kept one for myself."What are you going to do with these?" Evelyn asked as she took the handcuffs from the bag.Noah, "I don't remember asking you to bring the handcuff. What is this for? Or did you bring this for your foreplay?"I hit him on his head and said, "Foreplay, my a**. After saving Alexander, we can catch them using this and hand them over to the cops."Sophie, "We're going to fight them?"Evelyn said, "We're going to save Alexander, not going to fight with those guys. That job will be don

Isabella's pov;I came to Mr Martinez's house to confess my feelings properly to him. When I entered the premises, there were a lot of guards patrolling outside the house. One of the guards asked me while I tried to enter the gate, "Who are you? What are you doing here?" "I'm Isabella. I came to…" Before i finished, the guard who knows me came and explained to the new guard and let me in the house. Why are there so many guards out here? I walked in the pathway and entered the house. When I entered the house, it felt like I'm entering a police station because there were a lot of cops inside the house and there was equipment placed here to there in the house. Equipment which is used by the cops. One of the cops was operating a device which looked like a scanner, some were talking in walkie talkies.One of the cops came to me and asked, "Who are you? Who let you in? How did you enter the house?" And inquired in the walkie talkie that, "I asked you not to allow anyone inside the house,

Isabella's pov;"Sorry for disturbing you in the middle of the night; I had no idea where to go. That is why I have come here.""It's all right. You are welcome to visit me at any time." With his words, Harry consoled me.I went to Harry's house because he was the only person who came to mind while I was wandering through the park.I took a look around the house and asked, "Are you the only one here? Where have the others gone?""They moved to Atlanta about a year ago.""Didn't you go with them?""I stayed behind by myself.""How come you didn't join them?""I waited for someone to come back."I'm afraid that it wasn't for me."Um… Can I stay here for a few days if you allow it?""Can I ask?" he nodded, handing me a glass of water."I'm not in the mood to talk about anything. I'm exhausted. Can I sleep now?""Okay, fine. Come with me, and I'll show you to the room."In the middle of the night,Harry tapped on my shoulders and asked me to wash my face because I was crying since I steppe

Isabella's pov;Mr Martinez gave me a peck on my cheek before joining me for breakfast. Why is he kissing me everytime he sees me? I let out a yawn while eating my food. "When did you go to sleep last night?" "Around 11."He patted my head and said, "Go to sleep before 10 from now on.""Mr Martinez?" I used a soft voice.He let out a chuckle and asked, "What is it?""Do I… still need to… pay that… ten million dollars?" "You should.""What!?""No matter who you become to me. You have to pay the compensation." "That's not fair."He patted my head and said, "Work hard and pay me back." and made a smile. While leaving for the company, he quickly gave me a kiss on the lips and said, "I'll be back soon." Which made me smile.I waved at him when he was leaving the house. It feels like we're newlyweds.In the afternoon, a maid informed me that there is a package waiting for me at the doorstep. I came downstairs to check what it was. It was a big package. What might be inside this packag

Isabella's pov;Returning to California,I sat down on the bed and stared at the ceiling. The kiss came back to me. Because I was shy, I rolled on the bed. He gave me a kiss. Did he kiss me? He kissed my lips!!! It was fantastic!! Where did he get that skill? Why was his kiss so delicious?I could still feel his lips on mine when I touched my lips. He was gentle, passionate, hot, and steamy. It had every flavour that a kiss should have. Why am I so fixated on his kiss? Why can't I get it out of my head?Someone came to the door and knocked. I got out of bed and walked to the door, which I opened."Big brother?""I heard you and Mr Martinez went to Ethan's wedding," he said as he walked in."Yeah, we had a good time.""Did anything happen over there?""Like, like what?""I'm not sure. Perhaps it's a fight or a quarrel?""No, it was incredibly peaceful and enjoyable.""Really?""Mmmhmmm.""Then why is he acting that way?""Like, what way?""Mr Martinez did not appear well in the morning.

Isabella's pov;After ten minutes, I took him to our hotel room. I walked to the bed, closing the door behind me. I carefully placed him on the bed and sat beside him. What do I do now? I didn't ask him what I should do after making him this way."Can you speak, Mr Martinez?"While lying on the bed, he mumbled something. Did I put too much in his drink?When Mr Martinez mumbled something else, I approached him and asked, "What did you say?""I'm getting hot... I'm getting hot..." In his place, he squirmed like a worm."Wait.""How are you feeling now, Mr Martinez?" I asked as I turned on the air conditioner."It's... it's hot... hot…"I raised the temperature to 16 degrees, but he still squirmed on the bed, as if he was in pain."Mr Martinez, I'm at a loss for what to do. I'm sorry... Mr Martinez, please accept my apologies. I had no idea you'd be in such pain. Mr Martinez, please accept my apologies.""Take me to the shower," he said as he drew me closer to him."Huh! Okay, fine. I've

Isabella's pov;.On the way to the United Kingdom to attend Ethan's wedding,"Are you still upset with me?" Asked as he walked alongside me into the airport.I ignored him as I dragged my suitcase into the airport.He got boarding passes for both of us and sat beside me at the waiting area.Mr Martinez inquired, "Why are you still upset? We'll be at your brother's wedding. You should be content right now."I ignored him and inserted earphones into my ears to begin listening to music.After many passages, we boarded the plane and walked to our seats. However, our seats were quite far apart. Why did he get seats like this? Instead of Mr Martinez, who was supposed to be there, there was a guy who's on the seat beside mine. "Sit with me," I said, staring at him and taking my seat.Mr Martinez approached us and asked the guy beside me, "Sir, Can we switch seats? My seat is located over there. Can you please go ahead and take that seat?""Why should I have to? I like this seat, and there's

Isabella's pov;I was standing in front of the park where Harry had invited me to meet him."Shall we go in?" Mr Martinez inquired.I nodded and followed Mr Martinez into the park.As I walked through the park, I looked around for Harry."Bella!"I turned to face the source of the noise. It's Harry calling. He suddenly ran up to me and hugged me. I forgot everything and hugged him back when he hugged me warmly.He broke the embrace and held my cheeks together, asking, "How are you doing? When did you return here?""I'm not sure which question to answer first." I said with a nervous chuckle."It's all right. Give it your all."Mr Martinez cleared his throat to remind me that he was still present."He's Alexander Martinez, CEO of Skyland Corporation," I said to Harry, pointing to Mr Martinez."I'm aware of him. What exactly is he doing here, Bella?"I looked at Mr Martinez to see how he would react, but to my surprise, he appeared calm."Why did you ask that, Harry? What if those words h

Isabella's pov;During the graduation celebration,Big brother inquired, "Why are you standing here by yourself, Isabella? The party's for you. You should be enjoying it with your friends rather than being alone.""I'm not feeling well.""What is it?" He checked my temperature and said, "You don't look like you're sick. Does it hurt…"Before he finished, I said, "No... my friends have arrived...""So?""It's strange to talk to them."He patted my shoulder and said, "Simply go talk to them. You won't feel strange once you start talking to them.""Are you certain about that?"He indicated with a nod."Okay."I approached my friends, who were gathered in the hall, each holding a glass of wine."Hey! What were you doing? We were waiting for you." Noah stated."I was around here."Sophia dragged me along and forced me to sit with them, asking, "Are you embarrassed?""How do you find it so easily?" I asked, nodding.Evelyn stated, "That is something even I can say. Your expression says it al
