Thirty One

CHAPTER 31Felix sat in his chair, while Isabella and Nicholas faced each other on different couches. The atmosphere in Felix's study was different that day. There was tension. There was confusion, and there were many questions surrounding their atmosphere. Until finally, Felix's deep voice distracted the other two.Felix began. “So... what do you think, Nick?”Before Felix explained point by point, it seemed that the CEO of Alpha Company wanted to see what Nicholas thought of the 'Isabella cover' and 'contract marriage' that he had just learned about. If Nicholas had been a woman in the slums, it would probably have been horrendous news that immediately spread throughout the house. But until they returned to their desks, Nicholas had not said anything.“It's like... watching a television show, only I'm seeing it in the real version. A cover-up? Do you think this makes sense?”“It's a very natural response,” Felix replied, very relaxed.“Of course!” Nicholas replied, raising his voice

Isabella sat in the corner of the cafeteria, watching people enjoy their relaxed lunches. One hand was stirring the vanilla latte on the table. It had been five minutes since Isabella sat with her coffee, made of espresso, milk, and vanilla syrup, while pondering Nina Carpenter’s words.When Isabella thought about it, Irene and Nina were probably close because they worked on the same floor. However, ever since Isabella started posing as Irene, Nina had barely spoken to her."Did she talk to the Peter I know? The caretaker of the Rudolf apartment? Is he really connected to Irene’s disappearance?"Amid her confusion, Nicholas had just entered the cafeteria and scanned the entire room. Young women immediately invited him to join them; everyone was attracted to him. He was the second most popular guy in the office, with Felix holding the top spot. However, Nicholas’ brown eyes focused on Isabella, who was daydreaming in the distance. Nicholas smiled slightly, bypassed the people waving at

Due to Sophia's request, which had never happened before, Isabella was forced to lie to Felix, telling him she was going to visit her parents. It was a strange request, and Isabella couldn’t hide her worry.What if Sophia knew that Isabella wasn’t Irene?What if Sophia reported Isabella to the police for that?All these questions filled Isabella's mind. She didn’t even realize that her car had arrived at the Kingston residence. The large mansion, with its golden hues dominating the exterior, caught Isabella's attention."She’s really lucky to have been born a billionaire," Isabella muttered as she drove in.The mansion’s guard recognized Isabella's car, allowing her to enter more easily. Her black SUV, purchased with the money she earned from her writing, had to park alongside Mrs. Baker's luxury car collection. Truly ironic. But Isabella remained confident. After all, this was just an act.Isabella then got out of the car, stepping inside after two servants opened the doors for her.

"I really hate her, Emily. I want to throw the turkey on the table at that woman, but... argh! I really hate this situation."Isabella held her forehead while calling Emily, and it caused the earbuds in her ears to fall to the ground."Damn, I dropped the earphones!"In the middle of her journey, Isabella still had to focus on the road ahead. But she kept an eye on the small object that connected her call with Emily, now lying under her feet. Then, seeing an opening, Isabella tried to pick up the earphones while briefly taking her focus off the steering wheel.And BOOM!Isabella slammed on the brakes hard and suddenly. Her heart raced, and she covered her mouth in shock."Did I hit someone?" Isabella looked back and saw a man lying on the asphalt. The road was fairly quiet; there was no one else around besides the man, whose face Isabella couldn’t even see.After some hesitation, Isabella got out of her car and slowly walked toward the man she thought she had hit. He was dressed in ve

Felix drove his car calmly, trying to transfer that calm energy to Isabella, who was still sitting beside him, lost in thought. Since the earlier incident, Isabella had remained silent, staring out the window while hugging herself. Felix no longer saw the usually talkative Isabella.It took about 15 minutes for Felix to get back to his house. Felix thought that Isabella must have had a reason for coming to his house angrily and yelling at him. But that could be discussed later. As the car pulled into the garage, Felix hurried out first. He opened the door for Isabella, treating her like a queen because he felt sorry for what had just happened to her.Both of Felix’s hands rested on Isabella’s shoulders, trying to provide strength and comfort."You're home now, you're safe," Felix said.But Isabella remained silent. Even after entering the house, Isabella only closed the door without saying anything to Felix, who had helped her. Felix stood in front of the door, feeling confused but un

Isabella opened her heavy eyes. After crying all night, her eyes were swollen and sticky, making it difficult to open them. She stretched on the bed and reached for her phone on the nightstand."Um, it’s already noon. Felix will probably understand if I don’t go to the office today." Isabella then got up from her bed.Her appearance was truly terrible. Isabella had a rough day yesterday. Besides being invited to a painful dinner, she had to argue with Felix and ended up being sexually harassed on the street. With a deep sigh, Isabella walked to the dining table. A sandwich sat there, and she sat alone, staring at it."Why is my life this unlucky?" Isabella closed her eyes, trying to take deep breaths, then exhaled sharply.But the sound of her phone in her hand made Isabella open her eyes. "Emily?"Click."Hi, Emily?"The voice on the other end sounded panicked. Isabella suddenly remembered that they had been on a call last night, and the call had been cut off when Isabella experience

There's nothing better than having lunch with the man you love and... dining at a luxurious restaurant. Just the two of you and delicious food with a bill reaching hundreds of thousands of dollars.Felix opened the door for Isabella, and she immediately got into the car. As she fastened her seatbelt, Isabella said, "This was the best experience for me. I’ve never eaten at such an expensive restaurant and... without even showering. Really bad."A smile spread across Felix's lips. He started the car engine with a sense of relief. At least he knew that Isabella felt much better than she had the night before. "I'm sorry you had to go through something bad because of my mom, because of me."Isabella sighed and looked at the man beside her with sympathy. "Let’s just forget about last night. So, are you going back to the office? I can take a taxi and go home by myself if you want. It’s not a big deal."But Felix remained silent. Isabella found it strange, but a few seconds later, Felix sudde

"I want the acquisition process of Golden Company to be completed next week. Are there any issues with the audit process?"Felix’s voice filled the room, making Isabella feel happy. The man truly had an incredible charm. His voice was deep, but it had the power to intimidate and control the situation like a battlefield. She couldn’t take her eyes off Felix as they sat across from each other, while Felix remained focused on work. Nicholas was the first to notice Isabella’s change in behavior."Of course, Mr. Kingston. We’ll do our best," Erick said, sitting next to Nicholas during the meeting.After the meeting ended, Isabella immediately went to the cafeteria alone because Felix still had some work to finish in his office. Felix didn’t ask Isabella to follow him this time. Isabella sat at the farthest table, stirring her iced vanilla latte when suddenly Nicholas joined her."Hi."Isabella turned and raised her eyebrows. "Yeah?""Yeah? You’re not happy I’m sitting here?""Well, do you

Felix and Isabella returned to the car after spending time walking on the beach. The night air was getting colder, and Felix thought it wasn't good for Isabella's health. After fastening Isabella’s seatbelt, Felix prepared to turn the key and start the engine.The car drove away from the beach. It had been a memorable date, but something was still bothering Isabella. She bit her lip, weighing whether her decision to ask a question would be the right one or not."By the way... why did you and Sarah end things back then?"Felix turned the wheel to the left, taking the busy main road."Well, there were business and political matters involved.""Sarah didn't love you?" Isabella asked, straight to the point."I don't know." From his tone, Isabella could tell Felix wasn't interested in discussing this. "But she wanted us to end the relationship. And, yeah, she then married Louis. I guess it will benefit Sarah’s family in the future. I'm happy for her if she's happy."Isabella looked at Feli

Isabella was still staring at Peter, who lay there with a bruise on his cheek. She was completely confused about what to do. However, Felix acted decisively and quickly reminded her, "We need to check if Irene is inside, right? Or are you just going to stand there and watch the unconscious man?"Felix gave Isabella a meaningful look, and she nodded, giving her approval. He then forced open the door in front of them.After three attempts, Felix finally managed to unlock the door. Isabella grabbed Felix's hand, making him turn toward her."What now?""Peter is the guard of this apartment, Felix.""So?""He should have the key to Rudolf's room."Felix's eyes widened. He couldn't believe Isabella was thinking about that at such a critical moment. Sighing, Felix held Isabella's hand and said, "The door is already open, you don't need a key. Let's go inside!""Alright."Felix stopped deliberately at the entrance, while Isabella continued inside. Her blue eyes scanned the room. It was still
