Chapter 71 Seventy One

“Mine or yours?” Jacob asked when a while later, he led Isabelle by the hand towards the bedrooms.Isabelle looked between the two doors. Was she really doing this? Sparks flew up her arm from where he caressed her wrist with his thumb. Yes, she was.“Yours,” she replied. She had never been in his room before. She wanted to lie in his bed and surround herself with his scent.“As you wish,” he said, reaching for his door and pushing it open. He caught her by surprise seconds later when he hooked his arm below her knees and the other around her back and scooped her off her feet.“What are you doing?” she asked, even as she wrapped her arms around his neck securely.“Carrying you over the threshold,” he told her, stepping into the room and then kicking the door shut. “This is the first time you are coming into my room. It’s momentous.”She smiled like a fool as she looked up at him, a strange warmth spreading over her insides. He was really a handsome man. She must have thought that a hu

Isabelle licked her lips nervously. She didn’t need to uncover what lay behind his boxers to know that it was big. Way too big. The idea was to fit that into her–No. It would never–“You look terrified,” he said. “I have to admit, that was not the reaction I was hoping for.”She licked her lips again and lifted her eyes to his face. He gave her a small smile as he got on his hands on either side of her hips and leaned in. “Do you like what you see?” he asked, his voice a low timbre that sent shivers coursing down her spine.She couldn’t find her voice. Was it too late to run away? If she had known she would end up in this position with him tonight, she would have prepared. At least mentally. But she wasn’t sure anything–not even bingeing articles on what to expect the first time–could have prepared her for this.His hand wrapped around her wrist gently. “You wanna touch?”Her hand trembled in his, but she didn’t resist. He pulled her hand forward until her fingers brushed against the

Chapter 73 Seventy Three

Isabelle felt like she was going to die if he didn’t do anything to stop that ache building in her abdomen.His fingers felt good, but they were only increasing the ache. She felt empty. She wanted him to fill her with…with that huge erection of his that she wasn’t sure could even fit inside her.But it wasn’t like she was going to tell him to just fuck her already. She wished she had the courage to. He had no problem telling her exactly what he thought. She wished she could be able to say the things he did without feeling embarrassed.Jacob shifted, getting up from his position beside her. He covered her body with his, his knees parting her thighs apart. Then he lowered his lower body, got his fingers out of the way, and grind his hard-on into her.Her thighs fell further apart and her head fell back as her arousal climbed to another level. Her hands held onto his shoulders, her eyes locked on his face as he moved between her legs. He rocked his hips back and forth, his hard ridge hi

Chapter 74 Seventy Four

When Isabelle woke up the next morning, the sun was shining brightly through the curtains. She moaned and turned away from the light, hiding her face in the pillow.Why was the sun on her window in the morning? She could only see the sunset from her–She froze.Her next breath–which flooded her senses with Jacob’s scent–confirmed that she indeed wasn’t in her own room.Her eyes fluttered open again. Slowly, she scanned the area next to her. It was empty. She turned her head just as slowly to the other side. Empty. Relief swept through her. He was gone. That meant she could slip away.The relief waned as soon as she took note of the sunlight filtering through the curtains again. Her stomach sank. Oh no! She hadn’t overslept, had she?She scrambled from the bed, her body screaming in protest from about a hundred places. Her muscles hurt big time, but she didn’t have the luxury of sleeping around. She had a job to get to.The moment she got to her feet on the floor, she gasped and sat ba

Chapter 75 Seventy Five

After taking a bath and brushing her teeth, Isabelle went back to her room to get dressed. A look at her phone revealed that it was already nine o’clock.She wondered whether it would be too imprudent of her to take a day off right after Logan had offered her a raise. But she couldn’t deny that Jacob had her sold on the idea of taking the day off.Carefully, she crafted a text to Grace, letting her know that she wouldn’t make it to work because she was feeling unwell. She also promised to make up for it. She sighed in relief when Grace replied soon after, letting her know it was fine and wished her quick recovery.After getting dressed in a pair of comfy pants and a sweater, she took in her appearance in the mirror. There was a smattering of hickeys along her neck column, continuing on to the skin hidden below her sweater’s neckline. She didn’t mind.She held her long hair in a high bun, with damp strands caressing her neck. Finally, when she couldn’t dally any longer, she left her ro

Chapter 76 Seventy Six

When Isabelle appeared from the bedroom, Jacob picked up the bouquet of flowers he had bought and presented them to her.He had been quite straightforward with his selection–red roses.“For you,” he said, holding the bouquet out to her.She met his gaze before looking down at the flowers. ‘You didn’t–”“Yes I did,” he interrupted her, knowing what she was going to say. “I wanted to. A man can get his beautiful wife flowers whenever he feels like, right?”A shy smile graced her lips as she took the flowers. “Thank you.” She held them to her nose. “They are beautiful. And they smell great.”He tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. “Like you.”She chuckled. “You’re such a sweet talker.”“It’s all true,” he said. Reaching into the gift bag, he produced the box of chocolates. “I hope you’ll like these too.”Her eyes widened in delight at the sight of the box. “Oh, thank you!”He noted somewhere in his brain that she was a fan of dark chocolate. Finally, he produced the wine. “Let’s

Chapter 77 Seventy Seven

Jacob was still next to her when Isabelle woke up the next morning. His body was curled up against her back, and she relished in the feel of his firm masculine body.Her eyes fluttered open. The light filtering through the curtains showed it was morning, but the sun wasn’t quite up yet. Which was good, because she needed to get to work as early as possible to catch up with some of the work she missed the previous day.But first, she wanted a few more minutes in Jacob’s arms. She wanted to turn around and face him, watch him sleep, but she didn’t want to rouse him.So, she settled for lying there and listening to his breathing. One of his arms was thrown over her waist loosely. She thought it was amazing that he hadn’t let go of her throughout the night. They must both have had a restful night.She blushed as she recalled the previous night. They had ended up wasting two glasses of perfectly good wine because they had been so eager to get each other naked.Her own response to him had s

Chapter 78 Seventy Eight

When Isabelle got to work later, she sat down at her desk and sent a short straightforward message to her father. She wasn’t asking him for permission or his opinion.She simply wanted to give him a heads up that soon, Jacob would be aware of their scheme. A part of her felt like she was being unfilial, especially because Francis and Lucy had adopted her from the orphanage and raised her in their own home.Lucy and Naomi might not treat her like family, but at least Francis did his best. It was for his sake that a part of her felt awful about revealing their secret.But she couldn’t keep allowing them to use her for their benefit while deceiving another innocent person in the process. She felt that even if they had kept their promise, she wouldn’t have been able to keep deceiving Jacob any longer. Not with the way things had turned out to be.After sending the message, she put her phone aside and turned on her computer. Britney appeared at her desk then. “Oh my God, girl. I heard that

Chapter 79 Seventy Nine

Jacob had no idea what to think as he made his way into the hospital Isabelle had mentioned in her text.A family member in critical condition? She had never mentioned anything about anyone close to her being in the hospital to him. Was it an accident?When he got to the reception, he realised he didn’t know who the patient was, so he couldn’t ask for directions. He brought out his phone and called her. She did not pick up. When he tried a second time, it went unanswered.He wondered whether she was refusing to pick up because he was calling as Jacob. He used the number that she associated with Logan to call a third time. She didn’t pick up.Realising he would have to scour the hospital for her, he made his way to the emergency wing. She was not there, so he got on the elevator and onto the first floor. He opened doors, looked through windows, perused wards, but she was nowhere.As he made his way to the elevator to go higher, he tried calling her again. It went unanswered. By the tim

Chapter 80 Eighty

By the time night fell, Jacob thought he would go crazy. He had thought he would catch up with Isabelle outside the hospital once he left Naomi behind.But she had been nowhere to be seen, and she had switched off her phone. Hours later, he still had no idea where she was. He had looked everywhere he could think of–the office, their apartment, her parent’s house.Wherever she was, he had to find her. If he had to search all night, so be it.He was sitting in his car with her diamond ring in his hand when he received a call from Kevin. He had instructed his assistant to remain outside their apartment building and watch it in case Isabelle came back. Meanwhile, Jacob drove around the city, hoping to get a glimpse of her on the streets.He accepted the call quickly, knowing Kevin wouldn’t call unless there was something to report. “Yes?”“She just went up to the apartment,” Kevin told him.“Stay put,” Jacob instructed, starting the car. “I’m on my way. If she leaves before I get there, f
