Isabella's POVDays later.. The past few days were pure torture for me. After that incident, I became a shadow of myself, as the thought of someone wanting me dead was so terrifying to me.I had locked myself up in my room for days ever since it happened because I was so scared and, honestly, I didn't have the power or will to deal with anyone at all.The only person who I allowed into my room was Mary, and apart from her I couldn't stand to see anyone else , most especially Xander. He was the last person I wanted to see. He is the reason for all of this and, honestly, I couldn't look past that.But even though, I was still so mad at him, I knew I had to see him either way, and I couldn't just lock myself in there forever.Since it was almost noon and with my leg feeling much better, I decided to leave my room.'' I want to go and see Xander,'' I said, and Mary looked at me smiling.'' You finally want to leave your room, that is so wonderful, I would take you to him,'' Mary said wit

Chapter 52

Isabella's POVAll I could think about was the encounter with Xander. My sleep was even haunted by memories of it in my dreams, but when I woke to the light I knew I had to get rid of it all. I was going to work for this man, so I knew I couldn't entertain any unwanted feelings towards him.So I got up, took a shower and I quickly got dressed. I was about to leave the room when Mary walked in with a tray of food in her hands.'' And where are you going to,'' Mary asked as she dropped the plate of food on the table.'' I am starting work today,'' I said, and Mary's eyes shone in shock.'' Work... why,'' Mary asked and I was confused.'' Why what? What do you mean,'' I asked.'' Why do you want to work, you are the lady of the house, you do not need to work,'' Mary let out and I did not know when I started laughing.'' Lady of the house?'' I laughed even more.'' Mary, I am nothing of such, I am not a lady of the house, and I need to work to earn a living while I am here, I don't want t

Chapter 53

Isabella's POV I spent most of my time in my room, just working. I never came out. I never saw anyone, I was so engrossed in my job that everything seemed so insignificant. Mary hated that I locked myself up and all I did was work , but what I can say is I love working and it made me take my mind off a lot of things.And also, I found some disturbing discrepancies that I had to understand better and figure out what was going on, because the more I added up new numbers and calculated the inventories, the more they did not add up. It looked like someone was stealing from Xander, but I didn't want to jump the gun, I had to be sure rather than accuse someone falsely.But more days went by and my suspicion grew even stronger, the numbers were still not adding up, and it became clear that someone was stealing from Xander. But my problem now was whether I should tell Xander.Lost in thought, I knew I needed some advice, so I picked up my phone and called Mia.'' Hey Mia, Is this a bad thing

Chapter 54

Xander's POV  The past few days haven't been so eventful. Bella started work as my accountant, and even though it killed me, I knew this was what she wanted, just a business relationship between us. And even though I didn't want to, I had to accept her conditions. It was just so hard for me every day to just suppress my feelings towards her, to call her Isabella and not Bella like I always used to call her. Sometimes I just feel like I am going to lose it one of these days and just stop all this stupid charade. But a guy can wish right,'' I said to myself as I soon heard my phone ring. '' Speak to me, what is it,'' I said through the phone. '' Draco, it is not good, Javier has stuck again,'' I heard on

Chapter 55

Isabella's POV  Right now, I don't know how I am supposed to feel after the whole situation with Xander and his father. Xander's father had gotten him a wife, and somehow I could not ignore the feeling of jealousy rising up on the inside of me.  '' Foolish girl, you are not supposed to feel this way, he means nothing to you,'' My subconscious screamed at me as I walked into my room.  I was feeling so overwhelmed by everything that had just happened that I just collapsed onto my bed as soon as I walked into my room.  '' Urgh,'' I groaned out.  '' I did not even tell Xander what I wanted to tell

Chapter 56

Isabella POV I didn't come out of my room for the rest of the day as I sat by my window, just getting lost in thought , so you can say that I always hide when everything feels so confusing and unstable, because right now I couldn't make sense of anything I was feeling. I couldn't stop myself from thinking about the events of today, that even the mere thought of Xander getting married made me feel some kind of way. I didn't understand this feeling, but all I knew was that I wasn't supposed to feel this way. I continued to stare out my window, but deep down I was just hoping that Xander's car would drive by, so that I would know that he was okay and back home. But hours had passed by and there was no sig

Chapter 57

Isabella's POV I want you Bella, Every bit of you,'' Xander let out as his lips left mine , trailing kisses down my neck, and that was all it took for me to be pulled back to my senses. I could finally think, as my head took over, bringing my body out of what spell it was under. now seeing clearly and I was no longer bound by the spell of Xander's lips. Xander was about to claim my lips again, but that was when I stopped him. '' Stop, stop Xander,' I said, stopping him immediately as I pulled myself out of his hold. '' I can't do this,'' I let out and Xander groaned in frustration as he ran his finger through his hair. '' Why are you fighting this, Bella, because I know you

Isabella POV  '' You are crazy, Mary,'' I huffed, rolling my eyes.  '' Really, are you sure I am?'' Mary smirked.  '' Yes you are. You are talking nonsense, I don't care if Xander is going to get married or not,'' I let out as I stood up from the bed.  '' OK, so who were those tears for,'' Mary let out as she continued to tease me.  '' That is it, I have had enough, I am going to go take a shower now,'' I said as I walked into the bathroom, hearing Mary laugh so loud.  I quickly took a bath, and by the time I came out, Mary had already laid out a beautiful pink floral dress

Chapter 59

Isabella's POV   Getting off the phone with Mia, I changed my dress, I wore baggy jeans and a blue silk top, putting on a hat and black sunglasses just to hide the truth that was in my eyes.   When I was done getting ready, I walked out of my room, making my way outside so quietly just so that no one would know that I was going back, but can you hide in this house? Because when I thought I was in the clear, two of Xander's men walked up to me, stopping me in my tracks.   '' Miss Reed, We will be your security detail for today and that will be your car for whenever you want to live the permiss,'' They both said in unison and I rolled my eyes looking at the black Mercedes Benz in the corner.

Chapter 60

Isabella's POV Scoffing at his words, I drifted my gaze back to the window, unconsciously touching my arm as I allowed my thoughts to wonder away thinking about all that happened back at the restaurant.''Was this all my fault? Did I create the monster I saw back there because that wasn't the Aiden I knew?'' I said to myself as I allowed my thoughts to torture me even more.'' Hey... Just so you know, it is not your fault, okay, whatever that dude did, he did that because that is who he is,'' I suddenly heard Manuel say as if he had been reading my thoughts.'' Thanks,'' I let out, but I didn't believe that it wasn't my fault, I hurt Aiden so madly that I turned him into that person I saw today.We drove in complete silence as we soon got into the house.'' Thank you for defending me today,'' I let out softly as I turned to look at Manuel.'' You don't need to thank me, I would have done it for anyone else,'' Manuel smiled, saying as we both got down from the car.'' But Isabella, ar
