Isabella's POV.Even though I have hope and hope to wake up from this horrible dream. It wasn't happening.All of these weren't a dream after all.It's all real. My life is being shattered again and again.Even when I thought that I had found an escape route. It wasn't what I had thought.This place was worse than every other place I had been to.How did I fall into this trap again? Must my life be filled with hurt, pain and sorrow? Don't I deserve a little love and happiness?What would I do?It was already late in the night.I didn't know what to do. I couldn't even think straight.I have cried and cried for almost an hour now.What did I do to deserve all of these?I kept on asking myself various questions.After I had tried to put myself together, I got up and washed my face in the bathroom.I knew that I needed to do something before everything went out of hand but I didn't know what to do exactly.After I had washed my face I called Thelma.I told her everything and she was dev
Isabella's POV.I began sobbing with my face covered in her bed.I was exhausted, lost, pained and heartbroken.I felt Thelma move towards me, and she sat on the bed near me.She didn't say anything at first. She just patted my back with her hand.Cry it all out, don't hold anything in. I want you to cry to your heart's content and relieve yourself.Don't bottle your feelings, okay? It's not good for you.Make sure to bring everything out.She said to me while she was rubbing my back. This made me even cry more. I cried so much until I couldn't cry anymore. Until I had exhausted my strength to cry, and tears were no longer flowing down my face.I then sat up and Thelma gave me a long, tight hug.She wasn't saying anything yet. She was asking any questions.When I wanted to speak, she said that it could wait, and I just kept quiet.She told me to have my bath which I did.She gave me some medicine. It was a pain reliever, and after I had used it, I slept off in no time.By the time I
Nate's POVSince I was able to convince Mike that I would give Isabella to him if I got the contract, he acted fast.I just need to speak with Isabella later in the day and tell her about it.It was already evening and the day had been eventful.I decided to retire to my room early so I could watch the news and also prepare for tomorrow's handing over of the contract.After I had settled in my room, my phone rang, and it was Isabella.She apologised for not answering my calls, and she gave me a rundown of her day.She also asked me why I had called her so many times before but I couldn't bring myself to tell her.I tried to buy it but I just couldn't.I eventually let it go and I thought to myself that I would handle it so that Mike doesn't get to her.She suspected that I was trying to say something, and then she asked me about it.I lied to her instead.I told her that I had called her because I was worried and because I missed her.I also told her that in case anything should ever
Nate's POVMike was a snake and he had bitten me where it hurts the most.I decided to go after Mike first so he didn't pose a threat to Isabella when I found her.This proved to be a bit difficult despite the evidence we had against him.He had the backing of his father, and the police were reluctant to apprehend him as soon as they knew that he was the state's Godfather's son.It took about two days before an arrest warrant was finally issued.Dan worked tirelessly to get more evidence against him.We found out that he was a serial abuser.He had abused different girls for years.We were able to convince his victims to report him.He was then sued for domestic violence, money laundering, rape and a hit-and-run case that was covered up then.His crimes were massive and I was rest assured that he won't get out of it soon.All I needed to do now was to find Isabella.Isabella's POVI think the universe is against me. It's been a little over one week since I moved away from my troubles
Isabella's POV.It's been over four years since I came back to my grandma's town.I had gotten maximum support from Thelma, as she promised me.She was with me all through the pregnancy stage to the birth of my children.I had twins. A boy and a girl.The boy's name is Nathan while I named the girl Natalie.Thelma had teased me so much when I picked the names.She said that I was still madly in love with Nate that was why I incorporated his name into my children's name.I denied it though. I told her that it was because Nate was their father, even though I didn't want to have anything to do with him.When the kids are grown, and they start asking for their father, I might reach out to him then so he could meet his children.The last few years have been filled with a series of episodes. Ups and downs.But now, my children will be five years in less than five months.Even though I denied still loving Nate, I knew I was still in love with him despite all that had happened.I was just too
Isabella's POV Thelma's mother was very funny.She also had our best interest at heart too but sometimes it was too much for us to handle.You know you're my only daughter and I'm glad that you have blessed me with two children.But I don't want you to tie yourself down.You are still very young, and you're well-to-do.You should meet people. I'm so that that there are still some lovely men out there who would like you I don't want you to be like this Thelma, she slapped her hand while she called her name.She has chosen to stay away from men.She probably wants to be a nun.Even though you have been hurt before I don't want that to be the determinant of your life.You can't stop yourself from living life because of someone who is probably enjoying the best of their life now.Imagine putting your life on hold for someone who doesn't even remember or think about you.That would be a very foolish thing to do.You guys are still very young.I am not pushing out there to choose wrongly,
Isabella's POV She was equally happy to see them. She hurriedly dropped the plate in her hand on the dining table while she reached out to give them a big hug.They were such small figures in Grandma's hands.She carried them together, both in her hands and they were happy.I went close to them after the nanny had collected their bags from me.Natalie was the first to accuse me.She said, Mommy mommy, see. Grandma can carry us together but you can't not.Nathan also supported his sister.You would have at least thought that he would defend me but instead, he said.Grandma is strong and has a lot of power, while Mommy is lazy, so she doesn't have any power.Everyone in the room started laughing at the funny words that came out of Nathan's mouth.Thelma also added, guys I think mommy is lazy because she is always working all the time.How about we give Mommy some free time today while she rests so she can get all her power back?Yes, Aunty, they both answered.Alright guys, while momm
Isabella's POVCome on girl, you can't be like that. You can't do that to me.We both are in different situations; how can you even do me like that?I'm still in my healing process. Are you not even happy that I was able to acknowledge the fact that I missed him?Give me a break, okay?You should reach out to Andrew without holding back especially not for my sake.I would love for you to have your life filled with laughter.Man's laughter, I said teasingly.You don't have to put your love life on hold because of me.Have fun and break a leg.It would make me so happy. Your happiness is my happiness, too, so don't take that away from us.I made sure to give Thelma lots of pep talk.Yes, Mom, I have heard you, she answered me sarcastically.After gisting for a few more minutes we both went to bend.Rise and shine, mommy; I heard the children scream at the top of their voices while jumping on the bed to wake me up.I heard their voice from dreamland and it brought a smile to my face.I
