Isabella pov
Looking between Mia and Lukas I can’t believe what I'm hearing.
" what else?" I say and want her to continue.
" Lukas met with Silas yesterday at his office and wants to have a deal with Lukas!" She stops and I se she has a hard time telling me what it is, she keeps looking at Lukas and I guess she wants him to continue. I look between them and guess I won't like what she will tell me.
" Just tell me!" I say and sigh in frustration.
" He wants Lukas to spy on you and let Silas know every man you talk to or go on a date with" I just look at Mia and can't believe what she tells me, who gave him the right to keep tab on me?
" And what will he get in return?" I ask and feel how my anger rises in my body.
" Silas will keep his hands away from her and even help Lukas to win her back!" The anger I feel in my body from knowing about this has
Isabella pov Waking up the next morning I feel how my cheeks flush just the thought of the moment we had in his office yesterday. I'm lucky his secretary knocked on the door and told him the police were there and needed to talk to him. I'm glad they interrupted when they did and brought me back to reality again. I just rushed out of there without saying anything more. I don’t know what's wrong with me for wanting him despite everything that has happened, I feel messed up in my head and to be honest I should not be alone with him in a room right now. I can’t trust myself with him! Mabie, it’s just because I didn't get closure all those years back. My mind is a mess and there is no point in thinking too much about it. Tossing the blanket off I swing my legs over the edge of the bed and get out, it’s early and I know there is still time before I need to head over to the office. Taking up my phone I look at it and se there is a message on it, I open it and start to read. " Why don't y
Isabella povMy meetings have gone non-stop this whole day and when I finally get to turn off the computer I have a breath of relief. The meeting with my parents couldn't come any more convenient than this, I want to ask them if they can be with my boys when I leave for a couple of days. A week at the most! I know it will be easier for my boys when I am away if my parents are there with them, these weeks have brought them together really close and I am so happy to have them in our lives.My driver stops outside a small restaurant and I recognize it from the time I lived here before, if it’s the same owner they have the best pasta I have ever eaten. I almost feel how my mouth waters just the thought of tasting it again. Opening the door I get outside and a guard comes in with me to the restaurant. I don’t know why Danny demands I have one with me the whole time from now on. I will let him have his way for these days until I leave then I will not put up with it. I have always guards wit
Isabella pov I'm not interested in staying here and listening to whatever is going on here, taking a step back Silas' eyes meet mine and I just turn around and walk fast back to my car. I se Silas coming after me but he is clearly drunk and not as fast as I am, the car starts to roll and I hear Silas shout out after me and he tries to open the car door which is locked. I don’t look his way and when the car takes off I don't hear him anymore. Looking out the window I se houses rush by and I feel heavy in my heart, I was ready to listen to him and have a talk. I hoped it would be the old Silas I was going to meet today, but instead, I got disappointed again. I know after Saturday when I reveal the truth to him he will be furious, and if I ever would have a chance to talk to him about everything that happened before, now was my time. I have a few questions for him and would like to know if he kept any memory from our daughter, I just hope he still has them and I could get a chance to se
Isabella pov Coming to work the next day I'm already exhausted, I didn’t get much sleep last night. Had a lot of work I needed to get done and I texted Nelly through the office computer I need a new mobile phone when I come to work. Opening the door to my office there is already a new phone and new number, turning it on I see they have already fixed all my numbers for my family and work. Placing my bag down I start to text Mia about what I needed her to help me with and she answer back it will be done right away. I have hired her on full time and I haven’t regretted it at all, she is one of my best employees to get things done and I know she can handle it. When I come back from my trip I will take some time and spend it with her, I want to know everything that happened in her life and with Danny. Right now I need to focus on my work and the fact everything will be brought to the surface in just a few days, and to top it off his wife has a meeting with me tomorrow and grandpa is goi
Isabella povI couldn't find out who told Kian about my meeting and he wouldn’t say where he heard about it. I had to give up and let him go to sleep, I asked him again this morning before I went to work but he only said he heard something about it. I have to talk to him later if he is worried about me, right now there is a lot to handle at work before I can go back home.There is a knock on my office door and Danny comes inside. He walks over to my desk and places some papers down on it." Here are your ticket and your passport you need, all the information you need at the old office and your papers if anything happens when you are over there. You have to keep them close to you all the time! Don’t lose them or it will take me some time to get it fixed" I look at the papers and there is a lot of information I will have to dive into once my work today is over." I got it! Have you everything else under control?" I ask him when he sits down in a chair." yes, all that's left is a securi
Isabella povI have to take a hold of the back of the chair I am standing behind, clearly I must have heard wrong! This can’t be right. I try to gather my thoughts and raise my eyes to look at Susan again." Sorry I must have heard you wrong! Can you repeat that?" I say to her and take a large inhale to have some oxygen in my system. I clearly have forgotten how to breathe and the lack of air had made me think I heard something I imagine." meet my partner and the father of our child!" She says and I just stare at her, my mind keeps spinning and if I don't take a seat I am certain I'm going to faint. I walk around the armchair without letting go of it and drop down on the chair when I come in front of it. I rest my head in my hands and try to just keep breathing, everyone is silent and giving me the time I need to try and prosses what she just told me.After a moment I rise my head and look at her, I se she just sits there calmly and waiting for my response." Can you please explain!"
Isabella povI see her take another sip before she puts the glass down." my brother here got sick with cancer a few years back and none of us knew if he was going to survive. He has always known my partner and he offered us to donate some of his sperm to inseminate her. Silas didn’t want to be a donor! He said it only belongs to you and he can’t put a child into this world if it wasn’t with you!"I can’t help the tears that slip down my cheeks and I try to wipe them away. This is starting to get too much for me!" I respected him for it and was happy my brother offered to donate. Today we have our beautiful son! Silas has signed the papers and he is his son even if it isn’t by blood. One day when he is older we are going to tell him the truth" I feel how my tears just keep flooding down and can’t believe how incredible Silas has been to them.I pour myself another large glass and rise from my chair. Walking over to my window I sip on my drink and try to sort out my thoughts. I hear s
Isabella pov"Bella wake up!" I hear a voice far away and I try to block it out. I feel like my head is about to explode and my mouth is dryer than the dessert."Bella you need to wake up!" I hear the voice closer and someone is shaking me awake. Trying to open my heavy eyelids I see Mia's face close to mine. She has an annoying smile on her lips." fuck Mia let me be!" I say to her and try to close my eyes again." Well it’s not me who needs to be at the hospital in less than 15 minutes and you stinking of booze! Had a nice party by yourself?" Her words register in my mind and I sit up.Looking around I find I'm still at my office but laying on my couch. I have the same clothes as yesterday and one empty whiskey bottle is laying on the floor.She picks it up and holds it in front of her." did you drink all this by yourself?" She says and looks at me." that would explain why you look like a dead rat" she chuckles and I just roll my eyes at her, and rise from the couch." well I am y
Silas povHolding her small tiny hand in mine while I look down at our new creation.She is absolutely perfect!Just like her beautiful mother.Smiling at her when I see her eyes trying to adjust to the light in the room. She looks just like her bigger sister when she was born with black hair. That's what she got from me, the rest she is a copy of her mother."We are done and everything is perfect! You can take her back to her mother!" The nurse says while I hold our daughter in my arms."Alright!" I answer her and start to walk out of the room with her. Holding the blanket tighter around her while making my way over to her room.Pushing the door open when we reach her room and find my beautiful wife sitting on the bed and folding some clothes.When she hears the door being opened she lifts her head and looks in our direction.After all these years she still has me weak in my knees.The day I saw her in the school hallway I knew she was my other half!The one I couldn't live without,
Isabella pov Five years later. Sitting outside in the garden with my brother and his wife and Susan and her partner. We are having a barbecue and just waiting for the rest of our friends to arrive. Our kids are running around and playing while we are enjoying a glass of wine. "Where is Silas?" Susan asks after a little while. "Our princess didn't want to wear the blue dress so she had her dad take her up to change it!" I say and smile at the thought. "Well, she really has her dad wrapped around her finger!" Theo says and we all laugh. He is right about that! "She is just three, wait till she becomes a teenager and he will be buying her everything she is pointing at!" Susan says and if it was just when she is three. "He already does with all our kids! I'm trying to have him stop but there is no point, he does it anyway" I tell them when Susan's baby wakes up and she gets up to pick her up. They went through another insemination with another donor so Susan could carry a child and
Isabella povSix months later!"How is my wife doing today!" Silas says in the doorway before he walks inside to us. I'm sitting and breastfeeding our son on the bed. Looking at my handsome husband I get a warm feeling in my body.These months have been intense after the wedding and moving in together.Silas has been a rock holding me up with taking care of our big boys and my company besides his own. Never complaining just doing what needs to be done.He sold his house to Susan and moved in with us right after the wedding. It came naturally and having Susan and her family living close to us has been wonderful. Our boys are playing every chance they get and our dinner nights together is the best.The bed dips behind me and he wraps his arms around us and looks down on our son when he is eating. Leaning my head against his I love these moments together."Are our boys on their way to preschool?" I ask him since I know they are supposed to go today."Yes! Lucas is driving them there righ
Isabella pov.In my hallway, there are candles placed on the floor and some rose petals. I look around and try to figure out what they are up to.The trace leads over to the stairs and all the way up to the second floor.I feel a hand on my shoulder and Susan's voice comes to my ear."Why don't you follow the trace!" She says and I take a moment before I slowly start to walk up the stairs. I don't hear anyone besides Mia and Susans walking a bit behind me.When I reach the top of the stairs I see the trace of rose petals going over to my bedroom. He has been planning this that is easy to understand, I just can't think of what it is.Reaching my door I take a breath before pushing it open and walking inside.I halt and just stare at my bed!On it lies a gorgeous wedding dress and a card. My hand goes up and covers my mouth in shock! I can't believe what he has planned."Why don't you read the note!" Mia says and places an arm around my shoulders. I'm stunned and can't move from my plac
Isabella povI feel him caress my belly and roll over on my side away from him. Only to hear him chuckle at me."No! Just a little bit longer" I say and try to block him out of my mind. I don't want to get up yet."You have promised Susan and Mia to go to the spa today. You need to get up right now if you are going to get ready in time" he says and tries to have me roll back to my back. I do it and open my eyes to find him looking down at me."Or you could go instead of me and just let me sleep the day away!" He chuckles and places a kiss on my nose."You think I would look good in nail polish!" He says and lifts the quilt off me. I hate it when he does it!"It's freezing on the floor!" I say and rise up and sigh when I place my feet on the floor. Silas walks over and hands me my clothes."Just go and get ready! They are here in just a few minutes" I get up and head to the bathroom to get ready. Take my time and do my business.Pulling my pants up I struggle to get them over my bump,
Isabella povIt has been two intense weeks with Silas and Danny constantly being around me. They have to get off my back soon or I'm about to lose my sanity.It's Friday and I have taken the rest of the day off.We have been on another ultrasound and looking at the picture in my hand I feel relief it's still looking good with the baby, my blood is looking better and I just need to keep going the way I am."How do you feel?" Silas says and takes my hand in his while driving the car."It's all good!" I say and turn my head and look at him."If you regret and want to know what we are having I can make a call any time!" Hi says and glances at me a second before looking back at the road. I turn my head and look down at the picture in my hand." I don't care what we are having! Just want the baby to be healthy and make it all the way. The rest can be a surprise" I tell him what I feel. There are a lot of weeks left in this pregnancy and I'm just taking it one day at a time.He squeezes my h
Isabella povThe following day I have to go to my office, there have been several meetings I have canceled and need to have done. I can't keep them waiting any longer.Silas had some things he needed to do today and it had me puzzled. He seemed so secretly like he was hiding something from me.I tried to get it out of him but he only said there was something urgent he needed to solve.I gave up and let him be before I left to go to work.My driver wanted to know everything about the accident and what happened and I told him everything he wanted to know. I like him and I'm happy for Anna to find such a nice man after she lost her husband.When we arrive at my office I get out and Danny is waiting by the entrance door for me."Hi, Bella! I'm here to follow you up to your office and go over with you what security you will have around you at the office from now!" I look at him for a moment and have a strong feeling Silas has a hand in this. I sigh and walk beside him."Let me guess. Silas
Isabella povFollowing after them I quicken my phase!" well, technically it belongs to them!" Comes a voice and I snap my head up to se Silas leaning at the glass door to a porch and booth boys is clinging to his legs.I just look at him with shock and back at the beach." Are you serious with me now!" He flashes a big smile at me and I just stand there looking at him."how long have you known we lived this close?" I ask and walk closer." Since the day you left to go back to your old home! But I guess our boys knew before anyone of us did " he say and looks down at them, I walk up to him and look between them." I can't believe it!" I say and he chuckles before grabbing me and wrapping me up in his arms." If I had known sooner I would have come the first day you moved here," he say and kiss me." and how long have you lived here?" I have to ask." A little over two years, I live here and at the apartment" he trails small kisses down my jaw when I hear Susan shouting inside the hous
Isabella povWaking up the next morning to Silas' warm body against mine, his arm are draped around my waist. I don't want to wake him up but I really need to use the bathroom.Lifting his arm carefully off me I get out of his grip and slowly make my way out of the bed. Placing my feets down on the cold floor I already regret leaving the warm bed but I have to use the toilet.Walking soundlessly over to the bathroom I take my time and do my business. Washing my hands I look down at the ring and have a hard time believing he went all in on this yesterday.Last time he never got the chance to propose, we just had a rushed wedding. This time things might be different.Opening the door I find Silas awake and looking at me when I walk out of the bathroom."Come here!" He says and lifts the quilt off him. I walk over and get under it with him. He pulls me to his chest when I place my cold feets on his ankles, he hisses from the coldness."Gee! you are cold!" He says" just my feets. Mabie g
