Isabella's POVWhat just happened right now?I had not seen Nate in a long time.Did he miss me by any chance that he waited till I woke up to see me?He came to the kitchen to talk to me.He also kissed my forehead sending chills all over my body.I seriously like all this though I'm shocked as he had told me earlier that he wouldn't disturb me.He is actually making it hard for me to reason.My heart calls out his name every time.Not being able to see him all this while he made me miss him so much.I really wanted to be with him all the time.I love how he makes me feel.I smiled at myself as I continued my work.I was glad I had taken my bath earlier so I didn't need to wash out his kiss from my face.Why would one person make another person feel like this?I touched the spot he kissed me on my forehead and I just imagined it being on my lips.It made me remember how it felt to be in the other house where he had kissed me on my lips.I have relieved those wonderful moments over a t
Isabella's POVThe journey back home started and I was happy.Even though the ride was dull for the first half of the journey.I was tired of sitting in silence as I was the only one in the car with Andrew.I broke the long-term silence as I asked Andrew about Damien.I remembered that I didn't see Damien this morning as we were packing.I also noticed that for a few days now he has been scarce and out of sight.So I asked Andrew where Damien was.He didn't say a word at first and I took no meaning to it as he always does this every time.He stole a glance at me as he was driving before he eventually spoke up.Damien is busy, he is into some business right now which has made him not have time for every other thing going on.He has been coming in late and going out early just like Nate.At the mention of the name Nate, I smiled.I liked the fact that I got to hear his name now and then.He went silent again, then I thought there was nothing else to talk about so I surrendered too.Not
Isabella's POVAfter our long hugs and merry, they pulled me inside towards the living room so we could sit.We have a lot of catching up to do, Christabel said.I nodded in approval.I have missed these people so much and it was evident that they also missed me too.Even a blind man could see that clearly.As soon as we sat down in the living room to catch up.It was Lisa who spoke first.She asked me how I had been and how things were in the other place.I have been fine, I answered.Though, from the very beginning I was alone, and scared.It was weird to be around only guys and then to also care for them was another thing, especially with an empty kitchen.I missed you guys so much, I felt lonely and out of place there.I had to beg Andrew to allow me to invite Thelma to come visit me for a while and I convinced him by telling him that there was a lot of work to do in the kitchen and I couldn't do them alone.I also told him that Thelma was hardworking, she was good in the area of
Isabella's POV My mouth was left ajar as I was stunned at what I looking at.I thought for a second if I was in the right room or if I might have probably opened the wrong room.I took a step back, then looked at the corridor, trying to confirm where I was.Am I in the right room, I said with so much concern and worry.It was only then the ladies came out of their hiding by the staircase, then they approached me.Looking at their faces I could tell they knew what was going on.In fact, they have a hand in what happened to my room.I was certain for sure that this was my room so how come it's become like this?Do you all know what happened to my room please, I asked them.No one answered that instant and it was driving me nuts.Please answer me.Was my room changed by any chance?Okay, okay, okayLisa spoke up.Calm down, girl.This is still your room.The thing is we got an instruction to switch up your room for you.Switch up my room.I had absolutely no idea about what she was say
Isabella's POVThe joy I felt can not be quantified.I sat on my bed, taking in all the changes in here.I'm just a maid, how can I have such a lovely room?I know I said yes to being Nate's girl but still, my job description in this house is for me to be a maid.I wonder what I have done or what it was that I'm doing at this moment of my life that made me deserve this.This is a little too much I must say.How can I even explain this to anyone?In and out of my thoughts, I decided to call Thelma.She needed to tell me why she did all this and kept it all away from me.Why didn't she tell me?Even if she was told not to tell me she could have given me hints.She could have let me in on what was going on, even if it was a little bit, she is my friend after all.How could she pull this on me?I immediately got my phone from my bag so I could call her.I dialled her number which she answered on the first ring.It was as though she had been waiting for me to call her the whole time.Witho
Isabella's POVAfter laughing and tiring ourselves out, she looked at me cunningly and said, you weren't going to stop me from leaving right?Look at you, trying to run from me, if only you know I came prepared for you.I glared at her and just shook my head.I knew for a fact that there was no stopping Isabella.I told her since we have a long time together we should head downstairs to help the ladies out.We will have all the time to have our discussion later.She agreed and we both went downstairs.When we got to the kitchen, the ladies were already there.They were prepping for dinner, we just joined in immediately.I am so blessed to be among such wonderful, beautiful and amazing people.Anytime I see them, I know if I was counting my blessings, I would have to count them twice.They made my life easy and comfortable.After about a few hours of prepping and cooking, we were done.Lisa and Christabel were going out to share food while Thelma and Anna were left to clean the kitchen
Isabella's POVHow come I didn't take note of it?I asked in amazement.Thelma fired back at me saying,How would you have taken note of it when what you had in mind was how to get mad at me for having done this for you?Oh… come on Thelma.It's not like that and I'm sure you know it.Everything is pretty strange to me.I don't know how to act when I'm with these people.It was only a talk I had with Nate and there was nothing again after that.I don't even see him around.All this act will make everyone around here treat me differently.I don't even know how I should do that.I'm a bit nervous as it is.How would I react when I see Nate eventually?Oh, don't worry my dear.We will do something about it.You will talk to him on the phone and that will definitely help ease you down.I can imagine how you feel about all this.The thing is everyone is also happy with what is on the ground.They really like you around here and I want it to remain that way.We will fight this together okay
Isabella's POVI met Lisa in the kitchen and I greeted her, she replied to me and continued with what she was doing.She was already prepping for today's work.Anna entered the kitchen not long after I came in.I greeted her too and went she also replied, and then she asked after Thelma.She's still asleep I told her.Anna then said, she was going to clean the house and she would be starting from the study in case Nate comes home.He needs to meet every clean and since the study has not been in use for some time now she said the place was dusty.Nate might be coming home, the thought of that sent chills down my spine.It makes me blush.Anna carried her cleaning materials and left the kitchen.I hurriedly shook off my reaction so no one would notice my mini excitement and body reactions to the thought of having Nate come home here.I went close to Lisa to see what I could help her with.My being in this house after such a long time was weird.Being in this kitchen was weirder for me,
Isabella's POVNate stopped me. He then put his hands on my shoulders while making me sit on the bed.You have done enough, now it's my turn, he whispered.He then moved his hands to my back and unclasped my bra in one move.He looked at me sexily before he gently pushed me back to the bed.He made sure to take off all of my clothes first.The only thing I had in me was the ring he had asked me to marry him with.He told me to put it on while he then had his way with me.I much I have missed being with him.I was in love with this man, madly in love with him.We stayed glued to each other the whole night.Days passed, weeks went by, and it was about two months after now the plans for our weddingwere going on.I was with Thelma, and we went for my dress, finally fitting.My wedding with Nate was in a week, and I was the happiest woman on earth.It was my dream come through.I began to think about everything that had happened and how I have gotten here.My wedding was in less than a wee
Isabella's POV As we were talking, he mentioned relocation.It was a good thing that schools were on holiday during this period.It was a good time to change the children's school. We would have enough time to get a good school for them.We discussed the movement and everything we needed to put in place.Sleep took over before we knew it.It's already been three days since I got back together with Nate, and it has been filled with joy, peace and laughter.I was grateful that things were beginning to look good for me.Nate had travelled back to his place yesterday.He went to go and get the children's room ready and he also needed to make preparations for their school transfer.I'm glad that I was done with my exams, so I had time to do other things than stick to reading books.Thelma had been a sure support, and she was actively involved in our parking arrangements.She also confessed to me how Nate was able to locate me and I was grateful at how far she went for me to be happy.We h
Isabella's POVAfter a week, Thelma and her mother travelled back. Thelma had told me that she would be back after two days she just needed to go do some things.She was on her leave from work, and she decided to spend it with me and the kids.The two days she was away were boring.I was really happy the day she came back.She was acting weird, though, but I didn't think much about it.At first, she told us to go grocery shopping, but she chose the park's supermarket that was close to us.Thelma has always preferred going to get things at a farther distance.I just thought it was for a change.This evening, she told us to go for a walk.I thought we would go with the kids, but she insisted that they stay home with the nanny while we had some girl's time out.I thought that it would be a fun thing so I accepted.We have been strolling for the past couple of hours, Thelma. Can we go back home now?She said she wasn't ready to go home,e but we could go rest in the supermarket lounge are
Nate's POVMy eyes sprang open immediately when I heard her name.I sat up and all the sleep I had in my eye wiped off after hearing her name.Isabella? What about Isabella?Tell me everything.Yes, boss, he answered, and then he started to speak.Boss, I got a call from Isabella's friend, Thelma, last night. She asked if I was still working with you.I told her, “Yes”. She then sent me to you.She told me that Isabella was doing fine, but she was not leaving well.She talked about her friend confessing that she still lives with you and she misses you dearly.She said she had spoken to her friend to reach out to you but she had refused.She said she needed your help with something and this would help her make a way for you and Isabella to meet.I had also told her how miserable you are still. Isabella disappeared.She wants to meet up with you first before she helps you reach Isabella.Okay, where does she want to meet?She said she was fine with any place of your choosing.Alright t
Nate's POVIt's been over four years of loneliness.I had not been able to reach Isabella.Even Dan tried a couple of times but it was to no avail.It was like she disappeared from the earth's surface.I had reached out to Thelma several times. But she had been very mad at me.She never gave me a chance. She had even threatened to call me out as a stalker.I had to back off from seeing her.My life was more miserable than I had thought.Everything seems to be a blur to me by the day.I was deeply heartbroken.All of my achievements were in vain.Everything that I had gained that caused me to lose Isabella was all a waste.None of them made me happy.I was glad that Mike had been arrested for his crimes but I wanted to see Isabella.My heart calls out her name day and night.In the last four years, I had fought my brother with the help of my friends, and I had successfully caught him and exposed all of his hidden crimes.My father was also in support and he was arrested by the police.
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
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 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.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
