Like she was seeing anyone else in the world but her in it,it, but that wasn’t what bothers me. What bothers me isis the reason she was here——back at his house.

Isak“What did you mean? She just disappeared!” I screamed at the servants.How was that possible? I had made sure that the security was tight enough, then how did she manage to leave?“You guys can’t be serious! I paced on the tiled floor and wondered where she was now!Where did she hide now?! I flung the glass vase placed on the wall down the stairs and watched it shatter to pieces.I saw the servants flinch, but I didn't give a damn about them.I need Iris back here; I can’t allow her away!

Iris“Your mom's flight will be dropping by 6 p.m. Isak shouted downstairs as I made my way down the stairs to meet him.“I’ll be going to the mall later on to get some things.” I smiled when he held out for me. I smiled and placed my palm in his while allowing him to lead me down to where he was standing.“You sure you don’t need my help?’ He asked a million times that morning, and he got the same answer I’ve been giving him since morning.“No…” I shook my hand and disengaged myself from his grasp.This was the seventh month of my pregnancy since seeing this news.
