LOGINFive years ago, Isabella Primrose shattered Christopher Salvatore's heart when she disappeared without a word, leaving him to believe she'd never loved him. Now she's back as the nanny to his stubborn twins, who refuse to let anyone else care for them. "You walked away once," Christopher sneers. "Don't expect me to let you close again." Isabella meets his burning gaze. "I never stopped loving you." Living beneath the same roof reignites old desire, buried secrets, and dangerous temptation. As passion blurs the line between hatred and love, Christopher must decide whether to protect his heart or surrender to the woman who still owns it.

All I could see was sheer coldness, no emotions, not even hatred that could help me to guess what he felt about me.“Celeste!”Suddenly, he roared and it made me flinch in fear. His jaws were clenched tightly.“Chris, for God’s sake. Don’t shout or you will give me a heart attack.” She came outside pressing a hand on her chest but when she saw me, she understood her brother’s outburst.“Oh, Bella. Please, come. I was waiting for you.” She passed me a nervous smile.“I don’t need a nanny for my kids. Please, tell this lady to leave.” Christoher said in a flat tone and his aloofness hurt me.It sliced my heart but he had all the right to feel that way.“Chris, what are you saying? You know if twins approve someone it means they like that person and feel safe around them. Plea
[ Christopher ]“Sir, these reports are sent by the HR department. They look promising. We can expand our business in South-East Asia. Our partners there have been waiting for your response. Shall I fix a meeting with them today?”My secretory, Nancy explained me the reports and also asked for my permission for my ambitious project.I put off my glasses and rubbed my temples. I work tirelessly nowadays to take my company on a new height. It is my only aim in my life. I can’t disappoint my mother but I also feel torn apart between my responsibilities.“No, Nancy, not today. I am going home to spend some time with my kids because then we won’t have time as we need to fly for Ottava.” I said and she nodded in agreement.I leaned back on my chair and took a deep breath. I wish I could run away from here for some time and find the solitude which had left me years ago. I tried to fill the void but it’s still there.“Chris, why are you overworking yourself? I heard from Nancy that you cancel
Five years later…[ Isabella ]“God! What am I supposed to do now? It was the tenth interview that I failed.” I clutched my hairs in frustration.“Hey, chill. There are still three companies who are hiring freshers. You can try your luck there.”Windy, the waitress in my favourite café tried to cheer me up by placing my favourite chocolate mousse cake in front of me.“Thanks, Windy but I can’t help this low feeling and rejections. They won’t help me to pay my bills. My landlord will throw me out of my apartment very soon if I don’t pay my three months’ rent.” I shared my predicament with her.I was fired from my last job. I worked in a hotel as assistant manager, the salary was good since my grades both at college and university but one day, I was told that they replaced me with someone.It was one on the recommendation of a rich family.Although I had potential and I worked really hard but everything is useless.“Stay positive. You know you’re always welcome to come here to work wit
[ Isabella Primrose ]“We have done a good job. Our seniors are enjoying the party, guys.” Celeste cheered up with a bottle of beer. The party was at full swing. I tried my best to get myself engaged in the preparations and avoided coming across Christopher who was with his friends but I could feel his gaze on me.“Bella, you’re looking lost. If I was in your place, I’d not waste time here but jump on the hottest guy’s lap who is your boyfriend. Go and have fun with Christopher. Make this night memorable for him.” My friends teased me and Celeste laughed.“My poor brother. His eyes are only on his lady. I bet he’s dying from inside to collect Bella in his arms.” Celeste said proudly.My eyes stung with tears. This party might be the end of our friendship as well. Celeste had been my best friend for years.She supported me every time I needed her by my side. I’ll lose both my true love and a pure friendship.“Excuse me. I’ll come back.”I excused myself from there and searched for Chri
