ISABELLA'S POVWearing a plain white dress, I applied my lipstick and tilted my head as I looked at myself in the mirror. I still can't believe I lost myself after falling in love with Ryan Mitchell. What is so wrong with loving someone? Maybe the problem is loving someone who never deserved it. I loved Ryan with everything I had. That was my mistake. I showed him my loyalty. I gave him my endless love. He became too sure that I would never recover after my hardest fall. I need to prove him wrong, but it still hurts so badly.Isabella, how much longer are you going to keep us waiting?" Damian's voice snapped me out of my thoughts. I pressed my lips together and let out a deep breath. That cousin of mine can be so hot tempered and impatient "I'm coming!" I replied as I grabbed my purse. Aunt Evelyn had invited us over for dinner. I think this is her way of helping me heal. Honestly, I'm grateful to have her and my cousins by my side.Damian's grumpy expression and Dominic’s cheerful

ISABELLA’S POV I drew in my breath and wiped the tears off my cheeks after dropping the coffee I was preparing. My right hand was shaking uncontrollably, and I couldn’t stop crying. My heart pounded with frustration and anger. I couldn’t even make coffee anymore. I had lost the thing I loved most. After my wrist surgery, I still couldn’t use it the way I used to. I felt so worthless. I felt so useless.I sobbed harder, unable to hold it in. I slowly dropped to my knees and stared at my shaking right hand. This is so freaking unfair.Why won’t you let me do what I want, huh?” I muttered to my hand as if it could answer me. This is so damn frustrating and depressing. I just want to be happy.I hit the back of my head lightly against the bar counter as Ryan’s arrogant smile flashed in my mind. He still has the nerve to show his face to me? He filed for divorce and now what? He suddenly says he wants me back? He’s ridiculous… truly unbelievable.“Isabella!”I raised my face and stared at

RYAN'S POVFive months later….I was at the gym, lifting weights to kill time, and my assistant came in. He adjusted his thick glasses before speaking. “Sir, I got a call from your father’s lawyer. Miss Bella is currently in the hospital.My brows furrowed as I put the dumbbell down and looked at him. “Did I ever tell you to watch my ex-wife?He lowered his gaze. “I apologize, sir. I just thought it was something you needed to know.I clenched my teeth and wiped the sweat from my face. “Why was she admitted to the hospital?She is pregnant, sir.I stared at him in shock as I faced him again. He stepped back nervously, looking frightened.What? Did I hear that correctly?Isabella is pregnant, sir.I clenched my teeth after hearing those words again. Pregnant? Isabella is pregnant? It has only been five months since I asked for divorce, and she is already pregnant… hold on. Could it be mine? It is possible.I swallowed hard and looked at Johnson again. “Find out if she is having an af

ISABELLA’S POV “Isabella?” Ryan noticed me.I gasped when I saw the emotion in his eyes. He wasn’t frightened or surprised that I had caught them together. Instead, he looked annoyed. Oh God… I thought I had finally calmed the storm in his heart during our year of marriage. I was terribly wrong.What are you doing here?” he repeated as he straightened his long-sleeved polo, the polo I bought for him last month.I ignored him and looked at his mistress instead. Serena, the popular actress and model, was standing right in front of me, glaring at me with disgust when she was the one who should be ashamed. I balled my fists and went after her without a word.Ouch!” she screamed after I yanked her hair. I scratched her arm and tried to grab her neck, but she quickly pulled away.“F*ck! Stop it, Isabella!”I ignored Ryan and kept dragging Serena’s hair.I said stop, Bella! Just stop it!”Ryan, help me! Get her off me, you crazy bitch!I laugh bitterly. “You shameless mistress..”I was sh
