CHAPTER 62GETTING CAUGHTThe next morning, Isabella was woken up by Vincent's warm hand on her forehead,he wanted to check her temperature to know if she was okay.But as Isabella opened her eyes and saw him standing in front of her, she suddenly felt a huge lump hung in her throat as she struggled for words."W- what are you doing?" Isabella stutered as she immediately moved away from his touch, "I was checking your temperature with mine to see if you were okay," Vincent explained."I am fine," Isabella replied immediately as she used the blanket to cover up herself properly, "Yes it seems so," Vincent added as he gave her a warm smile."Do you need me to do anything for you?" Vincent asked as he sat close to Isabella on the bed, "No I am fine," she replied as she tried to get Vincent to leave her alone, she already had some wierd thought on her mind and didn't want him coming more close to her or touching her."Okay if you say so but i would be downstairs and you can call me if you
CHAPTER 63HOPEThe fact that there was a little hope of escape from the clutches of Mr White made Isabella so happy that she didn't even realize that she had gotten home already,she just could not wait to free from anything that has do with Mr White and her family.Immediately she got into the house she was surprise to see that Vincent was already home and was busy in the kitchen,"Hi Vincent," she greeted as she walked into the kitchen."Hey Bella, how was your day?" Vincent questioned as he lifted up his eyes to respond to her greeting and immediately continue with what he was doing."It's was good," Isabella replied as she walked towards the room to freshen up and then after some minutes she returned to the dining to join Vincent."Are you okay?" Vincent asked immediately as he had noticed Isabella countenance was not in a bright place, "Did something happen?" He continued trying to get some information from her."I am okay," Isabella said as she responded with a smile but Vincent
CHAPTER 64 HOPE RENEWED Vincent could see the difference in her eyes after their conversation, though she had not gotten the contract yet but she was already lively just like she always was and that was all he wanted from her. As he watched her eat her food,he could not help but stare at her, he had always found himself being happy to see Isabella in a good mood. "Thanks for the meal," Isabella said as she got up to take the plates to the kitchen while he went outside to make a call as he didn't want Isabella to hear his conversation. "Good day Boss," the voice from the other line greeted immediately as he picked up the call, "Ralph, there is something I need you to do for me," Vincent ordered and without any objection the man on the call replied immediately. "Yes Boss," he said as he waited for Vincent's reply, "I want you to add Isabella Cassie in our next movie!" Vincent announced with an authoritative voice. "She would be coming for an interview tomorrow and I want her to be
CHAPTER 65 THE INTERVIEW It was going to be a bright morning that day and Isabella was sure that it carried something beautiful along side with it because it bore her much awaited hope and she could not wait to get the outcome of her interview even before going. She didn't mind if it wasn't the lead role or even an important one as long as she could make enough money to pay Mr White off her back because all she really wanted was to have peaceful life without Mr White in it. She even got up pretty earlier than usual due to excitement and started to prepare for her day. She wanted to get there before the scheduled time and that mean she would have to leave early as the company's location was a little more far from their house. After all her preparation, Isabella was ready to leave for her interview looking so nice and simple,she was wearing a beautiful flowery gown that fitted her perfectly well. "You look nice,"Vincent remarked as he watched her walked down the room, he had alrea
CHAPTER 66THE LEAD"Wait here you would be called soon," the lady told Isabella as she walked away,it's was a waiting room where she would've before being called by the judges, she looked around and saw two other persons who was also waiting to be called in.But she still wondered why the nice looking lady had specifically fished her out of the crowd and she just assumed it was because Vincent had mentioned her name to his friend.And that made her happy because she was scared it would not get to her turn if she was still among the crowd.After some minutes Isabella was called in for her interview, which she had anticipated to be tedious but to get surprise she was only asthked a few questions and was act some few scence.After the interview she was asked to wait at the another office for the result and she was surprised at the reception she was given while she awaited the result.She was asked what she wanted to drink and it was provided for her and they lady made sure she was comfo
CHAPTER 67BACKLASH"This can not happen to me, never!" Jessica shouted as she hung up the call with her secretary, she called her to reveal the lastest news that was trending on entertainments that morning and it sure was not good for Jessica.Not after all she had done to make sure, she got the position of the lead role of that particular movie only for a mere upcoming wanna be actress like Isabella to be given the role.She had actually gone herself to bluefins entertainment company after her secretary had written to them severally but had not received any reply from them and had met up with Ralph just because she wanted to be the female lead if the movie.But Ralph had told he that his boss had strictly requested that a top actress from another city was what he wanted and because Jessica didn't know who the owner was she had given up on it only to find out that that same role was given to no other but her mist hated rival.She was sure the news had something to do with Vincent bec
CHAPTER 68RIVALS"What has this stubborn girl done this time!" Mr White shouted as he read through the news displayed across his eyes.He had turned in to check in updates concerning the entertainment industry,only to find out that Isabella had signed a contract with another company."This cannot be happening!" He bursted out again as he immediately thought about what this action would cost him.He had not even been able to resolve all the problems that Isabella had cause and now she was already onto the next making things more difficult than ever."How adamant and problematic can Isabella be?" he questioned himself as he lamented with his voice raised higher than usual.It's was already frustrating enough that he had not been able to curb the last problem isabella had caused him and was still on with getting a plan to make her finally belong to Don Fernando."How did she even manage to get a contract with such a big company as bluefins entertainments,"Mr White murmured to himself.H
CHAPTER 69VINCENT'S MESSWith the news of Jessica's pregnancy circulating all around the city, there had been an unending frenzy and everyone seemed to have their own response and opinion about the news.But majority of Jessica's fans were extremely happy about it as they poured in their love and support sending Jessica tons of congratulatory messages.They had always wanted the best for their idol and carrying Vincent's child was certainly a good one but with all this happening in the media Vincent was in his own world.A world filled with happiness where only Isabella reside,after their ice cream date things had taken a better turn has their days were now filled with much happiness than ever.He was oblivious of all that was speculating about Jessica's pregnancy and had woken up that morning just has any other but with so much work at the office and he had to leave Isabella early.Though he had planned to spend the evening with her just to make up for his absence, which he was alre
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 ordered as he walked out of the room and immediately after he left some young ladies walked into the room and cleaned isabella up while the nurse gave her some medications."How is she now?" 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

Audrey and Hall came as soon as hey heard about what had happened, the police arrested Don Fernando and rescued Mr white who had been in his basement for days. Isabella was okay but had lost her child, while Vincent was still in surgery the bullet had touched a crucial part of his bone and he would have to use a walking aid for some time. Angel and her mother came to see Isabella at the hospital and apologized for all their wrongs, Angel had learned that Isabella was never her problem. "I am sorry for all i caused you," Angel said as she embrace Isabella and their mother join in their embrace,it was the first of their lives of doing this and they all wept uncontrollably.

Don Fernando ordered as he walked out of the room and immediately after he left some young ladies walked into the room and cleaned isabella up while the nurse gave her some medications.

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
