CHAPTER 37

ISABELLE’S POV

I stood by the edge of the window, phone still in my hand, while my heart leaped for joy. Rob had agreed to come over.

A small grin formed on my lips.

He was finally coming back to me. Everything now was falling back into place, just like I’d imagined.

My fingers traced the frame of the glass absentmindedly as my mind drifted back to that night.

The way Rob called her the mother of his unborn child. It rang in my ears like a slap.

He got her pregnant and he didn’t deem it important to inform me, not even after I’d called him out.

Everything faded to a blur until I saw her.

The image of her and Rob together with a child pricked me dearly and before I even had time to think, instinct kicked in.

I followed behind her quietly, unnoticed.

There was no exact plan, just me following my body like a puppet. By the time she’d reached the top stairs, she paused.

She noticed someone was behind, I didn’t think, my arm instantly reached

    CHAPTER 80JENNA’S POVAfter my visit to Millie at the park, I’d done as she asked. To watch after Adrian. As confusing as it sounded, that was a very vague request too. For a week straight, I watched for any strange signs or behaviors. Carefully studying him like I was carrying out research. Each time he only reminded me of how far apart he was from Rob. He was sweet, gentle, and way too attentive. And the very day I decided to let my guard down because I was too tired to carry on a mindless search, I found what I wasn’t supposed to know. The reason Millie wanted me to be weary. I’d just woken up from a long night. Arden wouldn’t stop crying. I gave him milk, swayed him and yet he still didn’t budge until later past 3am when he finally gave in to sleep. I was halfway down the stairs when I noticed an alarming silence. It was Saturday, so I expected to hear the speakers jamming up, while Adrian did his little work out in the living room. The living room was empty and there was n

    CHAPTER 79ISABELLE’S POV“Hold on, I need to pick this up.” I say over the phone to my lawyer. I narrowed my eyes to the phone to try to see the other person calling. I frowned. It was my agent, Edward. I hadn’t heard from him since the vogue cover shoot got cancelled a few months ago. Not even a check in message, which was odd. I swiped to answer. “Heyyy! Edward!” I purred. “It’s been what? two days? God I’ve missed you….”His slightly deep tone cut me off sharply. “Not now, Isabelle. We’ve got pressing issues.” He stated coldly. My stomach flipped. When he said ‘We’, did he mean us or just me alone?I managed to maintain that perky tone in my voice, even when I’d just been cut of rudely. “Is something wrong? Did anything crazy happen?” My legs move me back and forth across the table that still has Rob’s documents spread out. “We need to talk! I’m on my way to you now.”“Edward wait…” I tried to press, but he’d already hung up. He didn’t even let me ask anything else. What an

    CHAPTER 78ISABELLE’S POVI ran up to the room with tears dropping down my cheeks without warning. The weight of everything I just heard hung painfully in my chest. My heart was thudding so loudly I could barely hear anything else. I could barely manage to breathe even. I rushed to the bathroom, scavenging through drawers and cabinets until I finally found it. The small blue bottle fit perfectly between my fingers. The label was already wearing off from how much it had been in use. I popped the cap open and dropped two white and red pills down my throat. I leaned down to the sink to gulp down a little water. It had that cold metallic taste that made me quiver. The mirror caught my eye instantly. God I looked awful. My mascara was smudged from tears and my skin looked awfully pale. After a while I could feel my heart beating slower and my breathing was back to normal. Thanks to those pills. Rob’s words still failed to vanish from my head. How could they? When what he said came st

    CHAPTER 77ROB’S POVThe file landed on my desk with a quiet thud. “Here are the papers for the year’s asset liquidation.” My secretary said softly. I peered up. Totally perplexed by what she had just said. “What liquidation?”She blinked at me multiple times. “I…I thought you were informed sir.”I flipped open the files. Everything there looked foreign to me. Different approvals I was never briefed on. My fists clenched hard on the desk. “If I could just get your…..” she started to say before my gaze fell back on her. “Get out.” I said calmly as I tried to hold back my anger. She froze. Still confused. “I said get out!” My plan slammed into the edge of the table, knocking away the file that sat by the side. She turned around quickly. Her eyes were visible with fear as she managed to get the door open. My teeth gritted against my jaw. I paced across the room. My breath alternating between fast and slow. He was at it again. Martin. And I was definitely losing it. Just like he

    CHAPTER 76JENNA’S POVI didn’t open up the paper right away. On the drive home, Adrian still kept checking on me at intervals. “Are you okay?”“Did she hurt you?”And many more. For some reason he had something behind his worries, but I couldn’t quite place it. Adrian had gone downstairs to grab me tea, so I made use of my alone time. I didn’t even know why I was hiding the paper from him, but I knew fully well that if that lady wasn’t trying to pass a message, she wouldn’t have secretly shoved it in my palms. I unfolded the paper, even if it took me a painful extra seconds to get it fully straightened. “This is about Adrian, I’ll be at the park by 1pm Ice cream truck. B careful…”The writing looked rushed and sort of smudged. Almost like a warning. “We were out of charmomile so I got you jasmine instead,” Adrian walked in, turning to shut the door behind him. Quickly I shoved the paper into my top. The rough paper itched uncomfortably in between my boobs, but I endure

    CHAPTER 75JENNA’S POVThe first thing that clung to my nostrils before I pried my eyes open was the smell of a good ol’ English breakfast. Eggs, sausage, baked beans, bacon, toast……Adrian stood in front of me with a wide smile. Just like he’d been waiting there all along for me to catch a whiff of the goodies. “Breakfast in bed for milady.” He said in a playful English accent. Dropping the tray between my legs as I adjusted to fit it in. I looked outside the window, before briskly checking my phone. “Shit! I overslept.” I blurted. “Hold up Humpty Dumpty.” Adrian said, holding a hand up to my face. Huh? I couldn’t help but give the most honest confused look I’d ever put on. “That was supposed to be funny.” He added with a faint giggle, dropping to seat by the bed side. “You need a break, Jenna. Which is why I’ve decided to entertain you with a premium treat…”I was about to speak up when he cut in. “And yes! Arden is fine, I dropped him off at the daycare. So we’ve got a lot of
