"I am suppose to be asking you that," Timothy fumed at Isabella, he had actually came to meet up with Vincent and not Isabella, his plan was to warn him to stay clear of Isabella and declare her as his. "What!" Isabella replied vividly shocked by Timothy's words, "Why would he ask me that?" isabella thought to herself. Isabella was begining to feel irritated by Timothy's presence as she recalled their last confrontation and how he had insulted her and call her sultry names. "I do not have time for this, please leave!" Isabella shouted with an authoritative voice as she did n
CHAPTER 39-LEAVING VINCENT "What problem!" Vincent questioned as he stared at Audrey in surprise, he wondered what she meant by that he knew he had not seen any reporter around. Audrey had seen Mrs Storm drove out of Vincents compound hurriedly, it seemed she had watched everything unfold and this was obvious going to be a huge problem."Well I think your mother saw you guys, though i do not know if it was everything but I know for sure she definitely saw something." Audry asserted her voice firm and low, she knew vincent mother's personality and was sure there was something fishy.Though it was fast she knew he expression was contrary to what had happened between Vincent and Timothy, she had seen smiling as she drove past her.But Audrey found it difficult to wrap her head around why, "I saw her drive past me on my way her and it was just few blocks away from your house,"Audrey explained."That'snot good!"

Timothy announced to himself as he stared at the mirror taking a satisfying glimpse of how he looked, Timothy was always full of himself and that was one of the reasons why Isabella never liked him."Just perfect," He remarked taking his car keys with him as he made for the garage, he was suppose to be at the office but he made sure to out everything on hold because he didn't want anything to sab
CHAPTER 94THE RESCUE"Here she is Boss," Don Fernando's men said as they showed Isabella to him, she had fainted out of shock and they laid her on a bed."Get the maids and the nurse!"

Don Fernando asked as he sat close to Isabella who was fast asleep, "She is fine now, it was just stress from the pregnancy since she is due to deliver at anytime," the nurse explained as she excused herself."Finally she is mine!" Don Fernando affirmed happily as he stared at Isabella's pretty face that reminded him of his mother's, they had been what had attracted him to Isabella from the first moment he saw her at Mr White's company.But he was not happy about Isabella's pregnancy and didn't want any part in it, he was going to have the child killed immediately he was born and have a new life with I

CHAPTER 94 THE ESCAPE Mr White was about to get into his car when he suddenly felt he strange hands across his face and that was the last thing he remembered before waking up to see Don Fernando and his men surround him in a strange looking room. He quickly tried to free his hands from the tight shackles but he could not, "Please don't kill me!" Mr white pleaded as he begged Don Fernando. "What have done with Isabella?" Don Fernando questioned, he wanted to know why Mr white had retorted to such means of getting Isabella but he was surprised about the allegation. "That's not me!" Mr white pleaded but he was replied with a blow to his face from one of his men, "How dare you lie to the Boss!" he shouted as he gave him another hit. "I swear on my life that it wasn't me, I only issued her a contract saying she was to pay some huge amount or come back to the company which was due to paid tomorrow!" Mr white noted. "Lock him up!" Don Fernando instructed as he walked out of the room,
CHAPTER 92A LIE!It's been days since Isabella had last heard from Timothy and she needed to be sure about his decision to help he out with mr white, she needed to be sure if he already made payment for the loan or if he was having cold feet.But she had been trying to get across to Timothy since that morning but to no avail, she didn't want to panic at first but it was already day five which meant that she only had two days left to pay off the loan or become a slave to the White's forever."Timothy has refused to pick up my calls or reply them!" Isabella lamented as she reported to Audrey who had been worried sick about the Timothy's promise."I told you he was not to be trusted," Audrey replied angrily,she had always doubted Isabella plan with Timothy but had only went along with it because Isabella believed in him."I have just two days left and I till do not know if Timothy had paid off the loan or not and cannot know as he had refused to pick my calls," Isabella repeated again t
CHAPTER 91GOING BACK Timothy had gone to Mr White's office to tell him about his intention to pay Isabella's debt and this made him worry, he had not told anyone about this except from Jessica and he wondered how he had been informed about it."Mr Newhouse,I know you were once betrothed to miss Isabella Cassie," Mr white stated as he stared at Timothy,he was nicely dressed and had made a good entrance but all this where not part of what Mr white had planned."Yes we were betrothed to each and now we are finally going to get married and become one," Timothy asserted his face beaming with joy.Confused by his claims Mr white questioned Timothy on how he had come to know about the contract which was only known to him, Jessica and isabella and he was very sure isabella had not told him about it.And after thorough investigation he found out it was Jessica which means he had to be careful about his choice of words and action.But he still didn't know what to do because he had not imagine
CHAPTER 90RASH DECISIONIsabella quickly went into her room to pick up her things, she was going to leave Vincent for good but she did not want to disrespect him by taking his child along to Timothy's house."What's going on?" Audrey questioned as she saw Isabella with her luggage in front of her door, "I will be staying with you until i give birth," Isabella said as she took her luggage inside.She knew Audrey was not going to be happy about her decision but she has made up her mind about it already, " Why are you are all your things with you?" Audrey asked again but Isabella ignored her as she went to bring in her remaining luggage to the room."Did Vincent do something?" Audrey questioned her voice filled with curiosity, she could not understand what had prompted Isabella to take such rash decision."No I didn't want to stay with him anymore," Isabella acknowledged, she didn't want Audrey to know about her deal with Timothy, but she refused to let her have any peace as she continu
CHAPTER 89 THE DEALTimothy knew Isabella would fall through with his plan just as they had planned it and now what was left was for Jessica and Mrs Storm to play their part."I just want to know how you knew about my contract with Mr white," isabella acknowledged she knew he had never cared about what she went through at the the hands of Mr white and her family and wondered why he cared now."I have always cared about you Isabella," Timothy lied as he didn't want to tell her the truth behind how he got the information from Jessica, he didn't isabella knew about his numerous meeting with them already."And you want me to believe that, you never bothered to show this care towards me when we were still betrothed." Isabella noted, she knew there was something off about how he got to know within such notice."But I am trying to amend my ways," Timothy quickly said as he took Isabella by her arms and squeezed them softly, he tried to use his charms on Isabella but they were not working."
CHAPTER 88HELP!As she woke up the next day feeling weary and down, she remembered her thought before she had slept off last night, it was a nice plan but she didn't have anyone who could help her with such a huge amount in one week.She knew Vincent was financially buoyant and his father's company where he worked was among the top company's in the country and he was also a talented and highly paid actor.And she was sure he would be able to help her out with the money but she didn't want to be indebted to her child's father, but she didn't have much time left and had no one to ask for help.Troubled she quickly took her bath,picked up the document and went to Audrey's place,she needed her the most at that moment because she was her manager and could think faster than she could."Why don't you just tell Vincent about it?" Isabella questioned, she knew Vincent would be able to help her with the money and since she was going to be his baby mama he could always get back his money.And m
