Addicted To Her Lips Chapter 22
Alicia was unable to think of anything else with the feeling of utter despair that consumed her. With what she had seen in this room, the elegant designs and the facilities which were modified to help Isabella cater to her every needs without much difficulties; the dressing room which was filled with designer brands of dresses, shirts, shoes and bags which would be hard to collect even for someone like her; and the large portrait of Isabella which sat at one end of the closet which she could detect was the work of an expert artist, Alicia knew she and her parents had made a big mistake.This was not what they imagined. No, this wasn't it at all. Shaking her head to get her thoughts together, she turned to Isabella."Mum was in a bad mood so I'll suggest you go there now with Angela. When you're done with her, I can help pick out a dress then," she forced a smile."That will be best," Isabella pointed out. Hearing that Hazel was in a bad mood was one of the sentences which was topping

But the deed was already done, and Lucas had turned around to take the whip on the bed. He took slow steps to close the distance between himself and Isabella, his fingers wrapped around the whip."Get on your knees," he ordered.Isabella nodded and struggled to do as he said, but how could she kneel when she was not able to move her legs? She shifted slightly on the wheelchair and looked back at Lucas, pleas vividly expressed in her eyes."Aren't you just as I said? Useless and Stupid?" he scoffed, shaking his head in disdain. As he talked, Lucas grabbed Isabella by her collar and pulled her down to the hard floor with force.She winced as her legs hit the ground, the tears on the rim of her eyes finally rolling down her cheeks. Still, no sob escaped from her lips. She knew the pain was yet to come.She watched as Lucas kicked the wheelchair whose tyres rolled off to one end of the room, giving the man enough room to see her tear filled face clearly."You know my rules, Isabella. Shou

"My god...Bella! You have over a hundred missed calls from... what's this? Who is 'Monster'?!" Angela asked. "Monster?" Isabella echoed. The only way to confirm Angela's words was by seeing it herself so she collected the phone and studied the characters by herself. She raised her head in confusion, "It's Nicholas. Where's the monster?"The two stared at each other in silence, trying to comprehend what was happening until it dawned on them all at once."Don't tell me..." Angela started, shaking her head slowly."It's not me," Isabella defended herself. "I asked him to save it himself and he did. I didn't know he used 'Monster'. Do you think it was a test? Does he already know I can't read? No, if he knows then...Hold on, Angel, do you think that's why he sent Mum and—""Calm down, Bella. I uhm, I think we should start seeing things differently. He didn't say anything but just saved it as this, then it could either be that's he's testing you or that he's teasing you. With his reputati

"Where is my wife?" Marcus wasn't surprised that the question had been directed at him, and even though he knew Isabella was not behind him, he still turned out of formality."Master Hunt...ah, it doesn't seem like the Madam knows you are ba—"Nicholas strode off without listening to all that Marcus had to say. From the old man's hesitance from the get go, he knew what the answer was; and though he was surprised that Marcus was trying to cover up for Isabella, he didn't show it.Hearing the maids and butlers disperse behind him, he headed straight to the elevator which he had ordered to be installed, while Marcus hurried after him."Did she like it?" he asked.Marcus chuckled slightly at the shy question. In a way, he felt like both Master and Madam of the Hunt mansion were similar in a way. They had this childlike behavior that was hidden behind their countless facades of cold and strong individuals."What's with the laugh? Did she dislike it?" Nicholas asked again, his tone showing

The mention of his wife's name sent every trace of drowsiness away from Nicholas' face."What's with her?"Joseph hesitated a while before speaking, "I...I think she's sick. Not physically so don't give me that glare. I think she's mentally sick."Whatever Nicholas had been planning to do to Joseph for saying Isabella was sick when he was the doctor in charge of her, he completely lost all motivation to do it. His doctor was simply stupid."If you're done, Joseph, could you get out of my room? I'm not in the mood for jokes," he stated, pointing at the door.Joseph sighed, "Then don't blame me when the maids begin treating her like a psycho."He straightened and turned on his heels to walk out of the room, thinking Nicholas would call him back. But it didn't happen. Instead, the man in question picked up the earplugs on the bedside table and placed it over his ears."Jobless," he muttered, though his voice was loud enough for Joseph who was at the door the hear him.The door closed and

Raph beamed, revealing all his whites as he smiled."I will be 20 in a few days," he replied."It's my first time seeing you around. When did you arrive?" Nicholas' tone was strangely soft, surprising everyone in the room. Even Marcus was not left out."It's been a year, Sir."Seeing the questioning gaze in Nicholas' eyes, Marcus interrupted in their conversation, "After the incident with my son last year, I asked Raphael to come join me here. You have been mostly out of the mansion in the past year so that's the reason you weren't aware of his presence."Nicholas gave a curt nod. He could vaguely remember the man taking a long leave in the previous year due to a car accident that took the lives of his son and daughter-in-law. He could guess Raph was Marcus' grandson."So, do you have anything to say about what happened while I was away? Anything about the party or whatever you can think of," he asked.Raph nodded vigorously, ignoring the signal his grandfather was throwing at him."S

Nicholas stepped closer to the bed, his eyes narrowing at Isabella's action of covering her body. "How have you been?" he asked."Me? I—I have been well! Perfectly well...Nicholas," she added the last word after a moment of thought, as if she was wondering if he would be annoyed by that or not."I could tell. I've been here earlier today and I must say, you seemed to have enjoyed yourself during my absence," he murmured, his tone laced with sarcasm.Isabella, however, didn't notice anything wrong with what he said."How was y—your trip?" she stuttered, clenching and unclenching her hand that tightly gripped the sheets."Hectic, as usual. Though this one was particularly worse since someone refused to pick her calls or even return the calls she missed for two whole weeks.""Ah... I'm sorry for that. I was...Busy and uh—I did..." Isabella stopped talking when Nicholas took another step closer to the bed. If he took one more, he would be right beside her. And he did."I heard about the p

Five years ago...17 year old Isabella waited alongside the rest of the Yates family members with their maids and butlers, outside the family mansion. As usual, she was positioned at the back of the maids, and her presence was just as important as that of Angela who was standing beside her. She was basically invisible."They allowed you out of the dark room because of the guest that's to arrive today?" Angela asked, surprise evident in her eyes. Isabella was usually locked in the dark room for a minimum of two weeks, but this time around she was already out even though she had only been there for just two days."That's what I think," Isabella replied. Tilting her head so she could see if her family members had already taken their positions in front of the workers, she added, "It was tougher this time. Dad put some bugs in the room."She rolled her sleeves up to reveal the purplish bite marks which she had itched until it turned to bigger wounds."Oh my goodness, Bella! How did you man
