Isabella’s POV
One whole week of endlessly perfectness. We’ve eaten amazing food prepared by our very own very talented chef, we also made it out of our own private island and into the main island, we ate beautiful restaurants and swam in the Caribbean Sea.
We’ve made love under the stars, and fucked until we couldn’t breathe.
Carter is perfect and think I might be in love. Utterly, completely, and irrevocably in love and it scares the fuck out of me.
We’re finally back to New York and like I said our almost sex tape is old news now. Some New York elite investment banker cheated on his wife with hookers so that’s the new story going around, my indiscretion with Carter totally in the past.
Carter and I have dinner later with his family, his sisters family dinner but I got invited too. I’m so anxious of meeting his mother again, it was clear the last we met she didn’t like me so I’m a little scared.
Isabella’s POV It’s finally the weekend, we just got to The Hamptons. Stephanie is having her close friends and family in her beach house for her birthday. I got her a present even though Carter specifically told me not to get her anything but that’s just rude going to a birthday party without any present. Anyway I know she’s into clothes and fashion so I got her a vintage 1950’s Chanel bag, there’s only 3 of those ever made I brought it in an auction. There are only about 50 people here for the birthday celebration, some I know some I don’t know. Most people in the fashion and entertainment industry. When we get to her beach house we first see Johnny who immediately drags me away from Carter to go find Steph. “Birthday girl.” Johnny calls Steph and she jumps
Carter’s POV We pass George on the hallway and he grins mischievously at me carrying Isabella in my arms while she blushes deep red. I put her down when we finally enter a guest room on the first floor, I have been here to my sisters beach house multiple times so I know the outline of the place and also the closest place Isabella and I can be alone. “I can’t believe you just carried me inside!”Isabella exclaims as soon as I put her down. “What’s wrong with me carrying you?” I ask knowing damn well she gets shy a lot. “They are going to think we’re in here having sex.” She says and I pull her into me wrapping my arm around her waist. “So what? We’re probably going to.” I say and she pulls out of my arms rolling her eyes at me.
Isabella’s POVI can’t believe we slept off. It’s so peaceful and quiet here unlike the city. I look for my little travel size hand bag, I had carried a couple of swimsuits, a summer dress and other essentials before coming here we’re going back into the city early in the morning.It’s 2.am now Carter is sleeping peacefully beside me, I unwrap his arm carefully from around me and hop out of bed noticing my bag at the end of the room. I riffle through the bag and grab a little summer dress putting it on before leaving the room.Coming out of the room I’m met with Steph coming out of the opposite room with a shirtless George standing behind her. She quickly closes the door behind her smiling awkwardly at me. Steph and George? I didn’t know she was dating or having a thing with Carter’s best friend. I don’t think
Isabella’s POVWe got back to the city early, well not really early. Today is Sunday and I have family dinner with my dad and grandmother. Carter is dropping me off at my dad’s place because I don’t have time to go back to my place and change and go to my dad’s place.“So I’ll see you later?” Carter asks as we parked right outside my dad’s place.“I don’t know, the girls are coming over we have girls night later.” I explain.“Is it like an all night kind of thing?” Carter asks with a grin, since our little island vacation we haven’t been apart for even one night.“Why you’re missing me already?” I ask.“Maybe.” He says and I laugh.“I’m not sure if it’s going to be all night, we haven’t hung out together in a while, with you taking up most of my time.&rd
Isabella’s POVI’m in Carter’s bedroom, the past couple of days have been nothing but beautiful. I have been basically staying here in his penthouse and I love it here. I’m so comfortable, he has made everything absolutely comfortable for me.“You know I could cancel my meeting and stay here with you.” Carter says emerging from the walk in closet where he just finished getting dressed for the office.“You should go I have some work to catch up on before I finally resume to work next week.” I say with a smile.“You can go to the office with me and use my office to catch up on work.” He says.“Carter, you should go I’ll be fine here and if I need an office I’ll just go to Davis Telecom.” I say and he nods okay.“Or I could make use of your home office.” I add.“Yeah okay.” Carter says
Isabella’s POVThis is crazy. I have never felt this way before, I can’t sleep, I can’t eat, my head is constantly spinning.I keep opening and closing the file I grabbed from Carter’s office, our whole relationship was a lie. Carter is only with me because of some twisted revenge scheme.It absolutely makes no sense, why does he hate my dad so much. He thinks my dad is responsible for Simon my so called rapist’s condition? And even if my dad is responsible, Simon deserves it and so much. But gathering evidence that can put my dad in prison? That’s just plain cold and that’s how I know everything between us was a big fucking lie.After I ran out of his penthouse, I didn’t go home to my place. I went to my dad’s place, I know he wouldn’t come looking for me here.Thank God my dad isn’t around, he’s in Lon
Isabella’s POVI can’t believe Carter he must think I’m stupid. When people usually say it’s not what you it’s usually what you think. And for fuck sake he was out with Emma Miller? If he wants me to even listen to him he shouldn’t be out her.I’m still at my dad’s place, I know Carter wouldn’t show up here hence the reason I’m not leaving.I’m working in my dad’s home office when Carter sister Stephanie calls me. I debate on whether or not to answer but I decide to answer. My relationship with her brother might be over but I still like her, and we’ve kind of become friends.“Hi.” I say answering.“Hi, how are you?” She asks her voice chipper.“I’m good and you?” I ask.“I’m perfect, I wanted to ask if you would still accompa
Isabella’s POVI didn’t know what time it was when I first opened my eyes, but there was a glow coming out from behind my blackout curtains. I was mid-stretch when I saw my overstuffed chair pulled into the corner and remembered last night. Carter had come, we had argued then we made love and he slept over. Reaching out, expecting to find Carter, I instead met cold sheets. A glance around showed no signs of him, he must have left. Suddenly my chest felt empty, it’s good that he left. We’re completely over, and him staying in fathers place wasn’t exactly a good idea but then why do I have this hollow and empty feeling in my chest.God I hate feelings. Feelings are the worst.I get down from the bed, head into the bathroom brushing my t
