Liam's pov;I couldn't sit still in my seat after seeing Bella rush out of the class. My mind was racing with questions such as, 'Why did she run out of class like that?' 'What happened to make her rush like that?' 'Where is she fleeing to?'"Do you know what happened?" Noah prodded me.Why does he believe I know everything there is to know about Bella?"No idea," I responded, shaking my head."Should we go after her to find out?" Noah wondered."Guys in the back bench, silent," Mr Brett yelled."Guys, what are you talking about?" Evelyn questioned as she turned to face us."Concerning the pursuit of Isabella. I believe she is in trouble. Anyway, we're off. Will you accompany us?" Noah responded."Don't you see we're right in the middle of class?""Let's go, bro," Noah said as he turned to face me.Evelyn inquired of Sophia, "Liam and Noah are on the hunt for Bella. Should we also go meet her?"Mr Brett yelled at us before Sophia responded, "Back row students! Silence!""Sir, I need to

Ava Devlin's pov;I noticed Isabella alone as I was watching the soloist performance event. I approached her and tapped on her shoulder."Ms Devlin?" She inquired.I took a glance around and asked her, "Where have your pals gone? Why are you standing here by yourself?""Noah is practising in court, Sophia and Evelyn took leave, and Liam was probably around here somewhere.""Does that imply you have nothing to do right now?""Kinda...""Then assist me with this. Because your niece has yet to arrive, could you please contact your brother and inquire as to when she will arrive?""All right."She took a step away from me and dialled a phone number. I believe she is calling her brother.After a while, she approached me, and I asked her, "What did he say?""He said he'd be there soon, Ms Devlin.""I appreciate your assistance."I went backstage before the event started and talked with the participants about the event and encouraged them. As one of the event organisers, I am in charge of cert

Mr Martinez pov;"Ms Garcia has awoken, Sir. Should I take her to your room?" "There is no necessity. I'll go by myself."I rose from my seat, exited the study area, and went to Isabella's room.When the locked doors opened wide by the butler, I spotted Isabella standing at the window. I signalled the butler to close the door behind me and leave.When I got closer to Isabella, I noticed she was staring at the garden."What exactly are you looking at?"When she heard me, she flinched, sighed, and asked, "Why do you like gardening, Mr Martinez?" Asked while admiring the garden."I'm not sure, but when I focus on some things, it helps me forget about other things.""Other things in what way?""Take, for example, business challenges."She nodded and returned her gaze to the garden."It's strange to see you that way.""Like what?""This particular one. The quiet type.""When people can't figure out what's going on around them, they go mute.""But it doesn't sound like you."She fixed her g

Isabella's pov;At Ethan's room,"I can handle such details, you are not required to do so. There are also maids and Butlers on hand to assist." Ethan stated."Do I appear to be a weak person? I've worked on building sites and carried large objects, so helping you organise isn't something I'll have trouble with.""Building sites?""Yeah, That was one of my side hustles.""Are there a lot?"I chuckled and replied, "Yup! I worked as a garbage girl in restaurants, a bartender in nightclubs, a server in cafes, a librarian assistant in bookstores and flower shops, distributing brochures and lifting heavy objects on building sites...""Hold on! Woah! You appear to have taken every job on the planet."I laughed and replied, "When compared to working here, the jobs I applied for were not as demanding. Those jobs are hourly, so I get off quickly, but it's completely different here. And I'm not sure when the contract expires.""Will you not come here if the contract expires?""Um... I don't know

Isabella's pov;I awoke to the sound of my alarm clock beeping beside me. I turned off the alarm and checked the time. 6.30 am? Huh? But I don't recall setting the alarm at this hour the night before. I lay back down on the bed and pulled the sheets over my head to sleep, but I couldn't, so I got up and proceeded to the bathroom to take a shower.When I emerged from the chilly shower, I noticed a large number of shopping bags on the other side of the room. Things we bought the day before. Did we spend a lot of money at the mall? How am I going to get everything to the camp? Is it their intention to get rid of me? I ignored it and went downstairs after getting ready for school.At the dining table, Mr Martinez and Ethan were eating breakfast. I approached them and sat with them for breakfast."Brother mentioned that You're heading to a study camp, where are they taking you?" While I was waiting for the food, Ethan inquired."Didn't he tell you where it was?""No.""Diablo Mountain.""Ma
