    Isabella sneered at him, "How dare I? Is that what you ask, Simon?""I'm your Father, Isabella. I raised you, and you can threaten me this way? Talk to me this way?"Isabella didn't say anything in response but simply looked at him. He heaved out a breath and turned to Eileen. She was so sweet and disciplined and didn't stress out his mind or heart. Not like Isabella. Where Eileen was a sweet child that made him feel like a proud father, Isabella wore him out and made him feel less than a man. She barely even regarded him as a father,She reminded him so much of her mother. She too had an uncanny way of making him feel useless."I really don't have to deal with all this." Isabella muttered shaking her head and then turning on her father again, "You want me so badly to treat you like my father. All you do is remind me that you're my father, then act like it. Stop trying to display just how much of a cheat you were and are. Be responsible for once. Do the right thing by me and my mother

    "Mr. Patterson." One of the waiters said, distracting him from his thoughts and he turned to the waiter irritably, before the waiter could say anything else, or he could even give the waiter a piece of his mind, his eyes found Isabella.He didn't go to her immediately, but instead watched her. She stood her back straight, her hands clenched in fists, as though she was resisting the urge to throw a punch.Who was this woman and what had she done to the Isabella that he remembered?That Isabella had been timid, more like a puppet. This Isabella was more like a figure of retribution. She looked like the Isabella he remembered. She just didn't act like her."How dare you, Simon? What gives you the audacity to call this lady my sister?" she barely looked At Eileen, but stared down at her father in contempt. And her contempt made him uneasy. She alienated him and treated him like less than nothing, as though he wasn't her father."Eileen is my daughter, which in turn makes her your sister.

    Isabella couldn't even find the right words to respond to her with. She was tired and truly on the verge of being very pissed. Not paying attention to Isabella's brewing mood, August looked out the glass doors of the hotel until she noticed a black Ferrari.Three years ago, when she first met Isabella, she had learned of Her ex-husband back here in Ireland, had also learned of the story behind Isabella's divorce and her son Noah and had felt that any man who could force a woman to choose divorce and their one-year-old child to deal with life by themselves couldn't possibly be very good.She suddenly felt the root of Isabella's anger, and said,"Don't you worry, you aren't going anyway, I'm not going to let him take you if you aren't interested in go-"But before August could finish her statement, she heard a voice call out Isabella's name, and turning to the direction in which the voice came, they were met with a pair of angry eyes, intensely focused on Isabella.And alas, she felt th

    She was still oblivious to him, even after he'd been in the room for some time. She had her face turned away from him, when she spotted a man with large ears, and eyes that were a whole lot interested in what she was saying at that moment."It's been a long since I was home, and it's great to be back. I have no other plans at the moment, but I guess we could ask Mr. Edward to take care of it." she said and turned to August with a smile, "please give it to Mr. Edward.""Of course, not a problem," August said.Isabella let out a soft sigh and reached for her glass of water, sipped from it, and listened to the conversation around her. Usually, she let August and her Gent deal with meetings like this. It wasn't because she could decide for herself what she wanted, she knew what she wanted. But meetings like this all but drained her.She was just about to make an excuse to get herself out of there when someone said,"Mr. Ronan, you've arrived." She froze at the sound of the name that had b

    Ronan walked closer to the woman, but paused when he heard the words,"I'm sorry, my sweet boy." And the voice, so much like Isabella's caused him to falter.Could it truly be her?Before he could make up his mind to take another step toward her or not, the figure blended into the shadow, and then was gone.He stared at that spot for the longest time, wondering what he had just encountered. Wondering who he had just encountered.But his thoughts were disturbed by sudden footsteps walking toward him, he turned toward the sound of the steps irritated,"Finn, what are you doing here?" I snapped out. Perhaps the idea of Isabella got to me more than I cared to admit."Well, I-" as he began to speak, the phone in his hand began to ring, he stretched it out to me, "it's for you, ma'am Eileen."I struggled not to scorn as I accepted the phone from him, "hello?" I asked in a detached voice. Nothing bored me as much as Eileen these days.Finn watched the look on Ronan's face as he took the call
