"CHAPTER 32: AN UNEXPECTED RETURN."

"CHAPTER 32: AN UNEXPECTED RETURN."Isabella turned around abruptly, trying to hide her distress."It's nothing, just... just a call."Sebastian approached, giving her a sharp look."Crying over nothing?" he asked, wiping a tear that was falling down her cheek.Isabella became very nervous. She couldn't tell him that her ex-husband had called and said he had information about her son. She was afraid of how Sebastian would react. She quickly wiped her tears and forced a smile."Well, it's just that... my best friend called and we talked about the wedding and... I know it's not a real wedding, but... I couldn't help getting emotional, I..."Sebastian relaxed his face and hugged her."I understand, you're excited.""Yes," she said, closing her eyes and listening to the beats in his chest."Well, there's nothing wrong with that, it's your wedding after all." he gently pulled her away and cupped her face. "Now we're going on our honeymoon. I came to see if you're ready."Isabella looked in

"CHAPTER 33: NOW I HAVE A FAMILY."

"CHAPTER 33: NOW I HAVE A FAMILY."Although Isabella felt hurt by Sebastian's cold words, she accepted that he was right. She was making the mistake of getting involved, after all, he had been clear."I thought..." said Amelia, but Sebastian interrupted her."However, don't get it wrong. She may not be his biological mother, but she is my wife, and therefore, his mother from today."Amelia gritted her teeth but continued with her act."As for your amnesia, well... it's unfortunate, but honestly, I don't understand what that has to do with me. Was I responsible?" Sebastian looked at her coldly. "I'm glad you finally remember, Amelia. Now you can continue with your life, hopefully far from me, of course. The truth is, I'm not interested in resuming anything. As you yourself said, now I have a family." he glanced slightly at Isabella and smiled. "And if you'll excuse me, I have a flight to catch, I'm going on my honeymoon."He turned and helped Isabella into the car. Nicholas didn't turn

CHAPTER 34: FAMILY OUTING

CHAPTER 34: FAMILY OUTINGThe next day, Nicholas woke up earlier than usual. Like any child his age, he opened his parents' bedroom door and ran to the bed."Dad! Mom! Wake up, it's time to go to Kadaku Park."Sebastian didn't open his eyes; instead, he settled more into the bed and said sleepily, "Mom will help you get dressed, son. Tell her."Isabella had already opened her eyes and had a big smile."You have a lot of energy, huh?""Yes, yes! I want to see the kangaroos and the crocodiles, and also the emus!"Isabella laughed and cradled his face to kiss his nose."Alright, little whirlwind, wait for me in the living room. You'll eat something first."The boy nodded and ran off to where his mother had told him. Isabella was about to get up but was suddenly pulled back."No kiss for me?" Sebastian said in a seductive tone.Isabella turned and gave him a small kiss, then scolded him."Aren't you supposed to be asleep?"Sebastian stroked her hair and inhaled her scent."I couldn't stay

CHAPTER 35: IT DOESN'T MEAN I LOVE HER

CHAPTER 35: IT DOESN'T MEAN I LOVE HERSebastian looked at Isabella and saw the anxiety on her face."We need to go to a hospital, let's go to a hospital, Sebastian," she said, her voice filled with fear."Yes, yes, you're right," he responded, carrying his son in his arms and walking quickly to the car.In no time, they arrived at the nearest hospital. Nicholas was examined and was now resting in a bed. Sebastian and Isabella anxiously waited in the waiting room when the doctor finally came out to speak with them."Mister and Missus, Nicholas is fine. The nosebleed was a common symptom of his illness, but I understand it can be very alarming," the doctor said in a calm voice."Is it normal for this to happen?" Isabella asked, still with a pale face."Yes, due to Nicholas's condition, it is something that can occur. His immune system is more compromised, which can cause these nosebleeds," the doctor explained."Are we doing everything possible to take care of him?" Sebastian asked, co

CHAPTER 36: FIRST CLUES

CHAPTER 36: FIRST CLUESIsabella spent the rest of the day with Nicholas after arriving at the apartment, while Sebastian checked the stock market and the company's shares. However, his mind was always on Isabella. Suddenly, he left the laptop on the bed and walked out of the room determined to find her.He wanted to explain, though he didn't understand why. But a feeling of guilt tightened his chest, not to mention that Mateo's words were still swirling in his head."I hope it's not too late when you realize it...""Late? Late for what?" he murmured."Don't play dumb, Sebastian... You know very well what Mateo is talking about, your feelings aren't as superficial as you want to make them seem. Isabella is much more than just sex, you like her," he thought.He closed his eyes and snorted, amused by his own thoughts."You have too much crap in your head, Sebastian," he told himself. "Fall in love? With her? A woman you've only had in your life for a few days? Life isn't a damn soap ope

CHAPTER 37: SHE WASN'T YOU

CHAPTER 37: SHE WASN'T YOUIsabella was stroking Nicholas's hair when she felt the door slam shut. Her heart skipped a beat. She got up and slowly opened the bedroom door, discovering that the car keys were no longer there."Did he leave?" she whispered.Pain took over her chest at the thought of Sebastian. The idea that he left without saying anything hurt her deeply, like a dagger in her heart. She knew their relationship was a deal, but deep down she had started to harbor hopes for something more. Why was this feeling of loss so intense?"Maybe it's for the best, Isabella, maybe it's for the best," she told herself, though she couldn't stop the tears from forming in her eyes.Meanwhile, Sebastian was driving at full speed, his hands gripping the steering wheel tightly and his lips pressed even tighter."Why do you care? Why the hell do you care if she rejects you?" he screamed in his mind.But he knew the answer. Since Amelia left him, he had closed himself off to love. He stopped

CHAPTER 38: TRUE FEELINGS

CHAPTER 38: TRUE FEELINGSThe words of Sebastian stirred Isabella's heart, and although she didn't want to get excited, she couldn't control this feeling. They were in the living room, the soft light of a lamp gently illuminated the space, creating an intimate atmosphere."She wasn't you," said Sebastian, looking at her intently.Isabella felt a lump in her throat. She tried to look away, but she couldn't. There was something in his eyes that kept her trapped."Sebastian, I think...""I like you," he said, not taking his eyes off her. "And I know that's not the right word to define what I feel, but..." he caressed her face tenderly, "I feel many things for you, Isabella."She gasped at his confession and tried to pull away."No, no, this isn't right. You're drunk. Tomorrow...""They say drunk people tell the truth, don't they?" he interrupted. "Then let me tell you my truth. I think... I'm falling in love with you."Isabella's heart nearly leapt out of her chest. Sebastian was being s

CHAPTER 39: INDIFFERENCE

CHAPTER 39: INDIFFERENCE"Are you really going to do that?""Yes, I'm sure."Sleep quickly left Mateo. He got out of bed completely naked and looked out the window towards the street."Well, what can I say? I'm happy. You're making the right decision. Isabella is a good woman and she's not like Amelia. You can't condemn everyone just because of one.""So, are you going to help me?"Sebastian glanced occasionally towards the bathroom."Count on it. I'll send you a message when everything is ready.""Good, and you know, I don't want a single mistake.""Leave everything in my hands. It's not for nothing that I'm popular with women."Sebastian rolled his eyes and hung up. He left the cell phone on the nightstand and pretended to sleep. When Isabella came out, she glanced at him quickly and sighed, then went to prepare breakfast.Sebastian, with half-open eyes, watched how Isabella moved gracefully around the room. His determination strengthened with each second he saw her. He didn't want

CHAPTER 40: ROMANTIC CONFESSION

CHAPTER 40: ROMANTIC CONFESSIONAfter getting ready, the car Sebastian had sent arrived at the appointed time. Isabella had dressed elegantly, though she didn't know if it was the right choice, and she couldn't help but feel nervous. As they drove through the city, she kept wondering where they were going. Her stomach hurt, as if butterflies were fluttering inside it.Finally, the car stopped in front of the tallest building in Sydney."We've arrived, ma'am," said the driver.Isabella nodded and hurried out of the car."A building? Could he have a meeting?"She continued forward and was soon greeted by a woman."Mrs. Ashford, your husband is waiting for you."Isabella nodded and followed the woman, but her heart was pounding. Minutes later, they arrived at what seemed to be the top floor of the building."The... the rooftop?""Yes, your husband is waiting for you behind that door, Mrs. Ashford."Isabella was nervous. She wasn't afraid of heights, but why did Sebastian want to see her

CHAPTER 41: THE ONLY ONE

CHAPTER 41: THE ONLY ONE"I...," suddenly, Sebastian's phone rang. He gestured to Isabella to stop and looked at the screen.It was Mateo, he grimaced and ended the call, then looked back at Isabella."It's Mateo, he's probably calling to see how the dinner is going. Go on, love. What were you saying?"Isabella's hands were cold and sweaty."First, I want you to know that I don't..."The phone rang again."Damn it!" he looked, and it was Mateo again. "Sorry, love, I'm going to turn it off so we won't be interrupted again."At that moment, a message arrived: "Answer, it's urgent." Curiosity piqued him, but he wanted to hear what Isabella had to say first."If you want, you can call him. This can wait," she said suddenly."Are you sure?""Yes, go ahead." Isabella wanted to delay it as much as she could."Alright," said Sebastian, calling his friend back. "I'll be here in a second, love."Sebastian stepped away a bit and waited for Mateo to answer. When he did, Sebastian didn't hesitate
