~Isabel~

"Bring it on, Juliana. I'm here to work, isn't it?" I replied, forcing the same dirty smirk she was wearing right back at her.

She arched an eyebrow, a flicker of surprise crossed her face before she masked it with pure disdain.

"Oh, we’ll see just how long that attitude lasts Isabel." She huffed, then stormed off into the her corner of the office across the glass partition, I watched her yank out a thick stack of folders and a small plastic flash drive, she marched back to my desk,

  • Sinful Obsession: My Billionaire Stepbrother    "Don't Push Me Isabel..."

    ~Iaabel~She was in a haste to go out, I watched her retreating figure walk down the corridor. She hadn't even spared me a glance nor given me that glare she always had on when she looks at me.Picturing her actually getting married to William, made my insides turn, the room tilted, i gripped my chest, hitting my fist on it just to force the air back into my lungs.Mrs. Brian watched me from her desk, with a cocked brow."Miss Vane dropped some work for you again," she said, gesturing toward my desk with a stiff nod. A single folder with the word 'Confidential' stamped across it sat at the center of my workspace, looking like a threat.'Fuck,' I swore silently under my breath. I really didn't have the energy for this right now. My world was falling apart, and here I was expected to sit and review sensitive corporate files. I forced myself into the chair spending the rest of the day going through the file, Immediately the time struck for dismissal, the others started leaving. I

  • Sinful Obsession: My Billionaire Stepbrother    Forbidden pain...

    ~Isabel~I gripped my phone hard, as I rubbed my palm across my face to clean the tears. My whole body felt weak, I forced myself to drag one foot in front of the other, just trying to get away from the restroom area. It was so not fair. It shouldn't hurt this much, but it did. My heart ached. Anyone who saw me right now will notice how dejected I was, it was clear right across my face, from my red eyes to my pale lip. I can't even face Juliana right now. How can I look at her? How do you stand in front of someone when the man you like is being engaged to them? The worst part was hearing it through office gossip.I had almost gotten to the legal department when I met Jax. He stopped where he was going too, cutting his stride when he saw me. He was carrying a stack of files, but his focus shifted entirely to me the moment our eyes met."Hey? Are you okay?" he asked, his eyes dropping to my face."Yeah, I am fine," I replied. I forced out a smile"You look pale," he said, his brow

  • Sinful Obsession: My Billionaire Stepbrother    Betrayed and played...

    ~Isabel~I dropped the files on her desk without saying anything. She stood up, collected them, and sighed. "I hope everything is in order, as there's no time, I can't go over it myself. Is it complete?" she asked, her voice softened, maybe noticing I had no energy left to argue."It is, ma'am," I replied.She nodded then walked toward William's door, opening it after a brief knock. I watched, peering inside to take a peek at what he was doing. Three men in suits came out as she entered, their faces blank and professional. I caught a glimpse of William standing with both hands in his pockets, looking over the vast city view from his glass-walled office. He turned immediately the door closed and I ducked. Fuck, he almost caught me peeking, my heart nearly stopped. I know today's meeting was important. With all the information I gathered, it seems he will be promoted to chairman. Does that mean Arthur has finally handed over his shares to William? Maybe, seeing how fragile life is

  • Sinful Obsession: My Billionaire Stepbrother    A way out...

    ~Isabel~I realized then that the best way to face a problem is not to duck, but to rise up fully to the challenge. I accepted the risk, and now, I have to be careful; showing any sign of guilt will not work to my benefit, there is simply too much at stake. I looked around at all four of them, their gazes fixed on me, waiting for an explanation. My chest felt tight under the weight of their scrutiny, that look of judgment on their faces seemed to penetrate my skin, I tried to steady my hands, forcing my fingers not to tremble as I picked up the flash drive. It felt small and cold against my palm. I forced a smile, stretching the muscles in my face until it felt natural enough."I’m just returning your flash drive. I’ve finished everything and am about to hand my work over to William’s PA. Since I’ll be away from my desk, I thought I’d drop it off in case you need it immediately and I’m not around."She looked at me, pondering my explanation, her eyes bored into mine as if trying

  • Sinful Obsession: My Billionaire Stepbrother    Caught red handed...

    ~Isabel~Back at my cubicle, I forced myself to eat the breakfast William had packed for me, not minding the looks they gave me as I eat, there was no way I would work fast hungry so I needed the food. I threw myself back into the shareholders' data, spending the next three hours in a race with the clock, lines of text blurred together as I wrote out the summaries.The deadline Juliana had set for me loomed every time I looked back at the time making my heart rate increase. I couldn't afford to fail, not with what was at stake. William needed these important information for the board meeting and if this was my little way of helping him, I have to give it my all.By the time I finally compiled the last summary detail and hit save, a calmness had descended in the office, the usual sounds of overlapping phone conversations and keyboards had completely died down. I blinked, rubbing my strained eyes as I looked around, there was no one, I was alone. I realized everyone had left for lun

She slammed the hefty files down with a force that rattled my computer, throwing the flash drive on top of them."These are information and deep details about all the shareholders of this company," Juliana said, leaning forward a bit, her eyes narrowed as she relished the moment. "We have done the big job of gathering them, it's your turn to go through them and summarize them for Williams. He will be needing it in the next four hours f
