Isabella's POV

“Who's that with you?” he asked Sabrina, eyes narrowing slightly as he took a slow drag from his cigarette.

“Oh, that's my friend and honestly, the main reason we're here,” she said in a light but firm tone.

“And what brings you here?” he asked, smoke curling around his words like a warning.

“We need your help and it’s really urgent,” Sabrina said, her voice steady, eyes locking on his like steel.

He stared at me, long enough for my stomach to twist, saying nothing. Finally, he spoke up.

“She looks… yummy and sweet. Any boyfriend, pretty lady?” he asked, smoke drifting lazily from his lips, as if testing my reaction.

I froze by his question. His words weren’t just startling, they were sharp, wrapped in a grin that made my skin crawl. I swallowed hard and glanced at Sabrina. She caught the flicker of panic in my eyes instantly.

“Umm…okay, Jason, you’re making her really uncomfortable now, please,” she said, playful, but with a warning buried in her smile.

    Isabella's POV Without thinking, I dug into my bag, my fingers brushing against my phone and the card Damien had given me. I wiped my tears with the back of my hand and started dialing his number, then froze halfway through like my body had finally caught up with my mind.Won’t Damien use this as a chance to step all over me? I wondered, my thoughts spiraling. Isn’t this exactly the kind of weakness he waits for?But then my mom’s condition crashed back into my mind, heavy and unforgiving, and I realized I didn’t have the luxury of pride, only the burden of survival.My thumb moved again, slow and reluctant, completing the numbers.“Look at you, pretending to be strong when you’re really just poor and helpless,” a voice sneered.I spun around, scanning faces, searching for whoever had said it, but no one was looking at me. Everyone else was busy living, laughing, moving forward like nothing in the world was falling apart.“Baby girl, wake up,” the voice whispered again. “You’re nothi

    Isabella's POV “How about you stay during the weekdays and go home on weekends?” he asked with concern.I thought about it for a moment. At least this way, I could visit my stepmom at the hospital and still spend time with Ray.Alright, I think that works for now,” I said, forcing a light smile.“Good. Then we have a deal,” he said, standing up and extending his hand.I stood as well, shook his hand politely, and withdrew mine just as quickly.“You can take today off to prepare. I’ll have some of my men pick you up tomorrow, if that’s okay with you,” he said.“That’ll be fine,” I replied.“Here,” he said, handing me his card. “In case of anything, you can reach me directly.”“Thank you,” I said, taking it before leaving the villa.Since I had time to spare, I stopped by the hospital to visit my mom.“Hi, Mama,” I said softly as I pushed the door open.“Hi, sweetie,” she said, pulling me into a tight embrace.She was crocheting, like always. Crocheting is her peace. It’s where her min

    “Ummm…. that's so nice but no thank you,” I said but seeing the reaction on their faces I pressed on.“I actually have something I need to finish in the kitchen. I’ll just get back to it,” I added, spinning around before they could protest.I didn't even see that coming. I know rich arrogant billionaire like Damien wouldn't stoop so low to dine with any of his workers. So what's happening now? As much as I hate telling Mia no, I couldn't just afford to cross the boundary. Damien saw through my excuse and didn't press further. He just nodded. Just as I took a few steps forward, I heard a loud clink of a cutlery set against the plates. I turned around quickly and it was Mia.“Please auntie,” she pleaded, making her cute face I can hardly ignore. “Princess, I…….” “Consider it her little thank-you for agreeing to be her nanny,” Damien cut in, snatching the words from my lips before I could finish.Looking at Mia’s cute little face, I knew I couldn’t back down anymore.With a quiet sig

    Isabella's POV “Daddy,” Mia called out the moment she saw him, her voice bright with joy and ran to hug her. “I can’t wait to serve you my first meal,” she announced dramatically, and we all burst into laughter at her tiny performance.“Auntie, what do we do next?” she asked, bouncing slightly where she stood.“Now we go set the table, and then you’ll finally serve Daddy,” I said, pinching her nose gently.“Really, Auntie? I’ll serve my Daddy?” she asked, her eyes widening in disbelief.“Yes, princess. You’re Daddy’s big girl. Or don’t you want to serve him?” I teased softly.“Yes, Auntie, yes! I want to serve my Daddy,” she squealed, clapping her little hands together.“Good. Then let’s go set the table,” I said, lowering her gently to the floor.“Daddy, I have a surprise for you, but first you need to leave. When I’m done, I’ll come get you,” she said, shooing him away with exaggerated seriousness.“Alright, alright, princess. I can’t wait for your surprise,” Damien said, lifting

    Isabella's POV “Come on, Auntie. You promised something delicious, and I’m starving,” Mia tugged gently, wriggling free from my hug with impatient excitement.“Of course, Princess. Let’s make something delicious,” I said, brushing my fingers over her cheeks with a soft smile.“This way, Auntie!” she squealed, bouncing on her toes as she dashed ahead, pulling me toward the kitchen.Inside, a young woman about my age, maybe a bit older, stood by the counter. Her posture was polite but wary.“Hi, miss,” she said, her smile warm but careful. “How can I help you today?”“Um…” I faltered, unsure how to phrase it. “I’d like to make something for Mia myself, if that’s okay.”Her eyes flickered with doubt. “I don’t think my boss would approve, but… you can tell me what you want, and I’ll make it for you. Just name it.”“I really appreciate that,” I said quickly, “but I’d prefer to do it myself. You might not know me yet, but I’m Mia’s new nanny.”“Nice to meet you, but I can’t allow that. My
