Isabella's POV

I smiled at the consideration as he thought of me when he did this.It was Damien who was at the door and the way he was speaking to Nate it seemed as though the matter was urgent.I heard him say they should go outside the house to discuss the issue. I was sure he did this for me to have space to leave the study without being seen.I left the study after a few minutes, I opened the door gently so it didn't make any sound then tiptoed to my room.I was glad I made it to my room without being caught by anyone.Nate's POVAs
