CHAPTER 51
She was still shaking when Billy came to get her, but Isabelle managed to control herself when she saw him enter the house to greet Andrew. Her father got up from his armchair and had come to say hello to him. He was once again normal, calm... pleasant even.
"Andrew, I'm going to bring Isabelle home at a reasonable hour," Billy promised him. He turned to Isabelle. "Shall we go, Belle?" Billy asked, offering her his arm to accompany her to the car.
Isabelle nodded, and after she greeted her father, they both approached the car. Before opening the door, Billy looked at her tenderly, mesmerized once again by her beauty and sweetness. Her usual... cowgirl clothes disappeared and Isabelle was wearing an above-knee pale pink with some black lace dress, and a pair of pink pumps. Her beautiful hair was tight i

They returned to the car and got in, but Billy didn't start the car. He took a deep breath before continuing the story. What he remembered happened to Shawn was still fresh in his mind. Billy still remembered Shawn's despair, his pain, his unease about not knowing what had happened to his girlfriend. Isabelle wanted to know what had happened and waited in silence; she didn’t want to push Billy too much. He was a bit distraught, but she didn't have to wait too long to hear what happened next.“He found her all right. Jennifer was living in a bad neighborhood on the Paris peripheries, practically a dump, amongst drug dealers, addicts, pimps, and prostitutes. Her... prince charming had left her in a small, dirty room and, before leaving her, he took whatever he could sell or pawn... He had even left her without her passport. Jennifer was no longer the woman Shawn knew... she became a drug addict; she

Completely embarrassed, Isabelle blushed and avoided looking at him. She didn't want to talk about her with Billy, she didn't want to talk about herself, about her life. She didn’t want to reveal too much about the real Isabelle."I have no hidden talents, really," she answered. “I just taught myself foreign languages, art, but music has always been my main passion.”"You're too modest..." he added, smiling tenderly.“I'm not a genius, Billy, trust me on that!” Billy smiled at her again and took her soft yet firm hand in his and squeezed it. Isabelle felt nothing when Billy did that and she felt sad. Billy was so good to her, he listened to everything she told him, he didn't laugh at her, at her

At the end of the first part of the musical, Billy accompanied Isabelle into the lobby to get something to drink and to stretch her legs a little. Since there were enough people who had thought the same thing, Billy asked her to wait for him in a corner of the lobby. As she stood there, looking around, Isabelle saw Shawn coming towards her. Strangely, he was without Danielle, who was on the other side of the lobby, chatting happily with other people."It looks like it's going to rain tonight," he said softly, drinking the last drop of champagne.“Probably...” Isabelle replied looking out the window. That’s when she heard a rumble of thunder that startled her. Suddenly, Isabelle felt a shiver going through her body leaving her with a strange fe

Billy stopped the car on the side of the road, in a service area, and turned to her totally shocked by Isabelle's words. He was starting to understand now what he had read in her diary. Realizing what she had just told him, Isabelle covered her mouth with her hand.“Oh, Billy, please, don't mind me, I'm just very tired. He's my father, of course, he won't hurt me. Except that it scares me a lot when he’s very drunk,” she replied quickly. "Please don't pay attention to what I just said to you." He wanted to know more, but she was very scared right now and Billy decided to drive.“Don't worry, Belle... But it will be difficult to forget what you’ve told me. I would love to help you.”“For now,

The evening wasn’t such a complete disaster. She had found out a lot about Shawn's past and made things clear with Billy. Isabelle couldn’t continue to give him false hopes. She waved goodbye to him and stood in front of the door until Billy's car disappeared into the night. As she prepared to enter, she bumped into the nurse sent to her house by doctor Jones. She said to Isabelle that her father was quite all right and fortunately Andrew didn’t need her aid at all. Isabelle thanked her. Before going into her father’s room, she went into the kitchen to say hello to Lucy and tell her to go to sleep. She found her father still awake, fortunately not drunk. She told him about her ‘date’ with Billy, avoiding telling him about the episode with Shawn and Danielle and everything Billy had told

They were just about to start eating, but the sound of horse hooves could be heard from afar. They both winced when they saw a person on a horse coming in their direction. A slight smile appeared on Billy's lips as Isabelle's heart began to beat extremely fast. Even though the man on the horse was still far away, the arrogant way in which he rode betrayed his identity.“Shawn...” she whispered gasping for air. His name had left Isabelle's lips almost without her knowing.“Mom had told him about the picnic, asking if he could join us. He told her that if he would be able to get rid of a previous commitment, then he would come,” Billy said following closely Isabelle's reaction.“What a way to ride a horse… H

He sat on top of her and made Isabelle his prisoner. His strong chest crushed her breasts making every attempt to get up practically impossible. His head began to go down even further until his burning mouth found relief resting on Isabelle's surprised lips. At first, she still tried to resist him, but her body betrayed her and reacted differently. Shawn's lips were warm and convincing, and, without her being ok with all this, her lips responded to Shawn's. Eager prisoner, tight in his strong embrace, Isabelle drank the tenderness and sweetness of that endless kiss, while the afternoon breeze was caressing their bodies heated by the passion. Shawn heard an almost unnoticeable moan coming from Isabelle and right then and there he knew that she was all his and that she would never be the woman of another man. He felt his head grow heavy and groaned sligh

After the picnic, Isabelle and Billy joined Marie. She finished greeting everyone who had come there. They asked Isabelle to come with them to the ‘Villa Mimosa’, to spend the rest of the day with them and to have dinner with the whole family. But the thought of seeing Shawn again, especially after what had happened between the two of them earlier, frightened her and Isabelle refused their invitation and they didn’t insist. After saying goodbye to Marie, Isabelle asked Billy to take her to the ranch. As usual, he helped her get down and accompanied her to the entrance.“Today I had a great time with you, Billy,” she said tenderly. "But the good things must come to an end." Billy took Isabelle's hands in his. They were very cold and, in her eyes, he saw so mu
