Isabella's POV.

“Are you hungry?” Declan asked, standing a little closer to me than necessary and I shook my head at him.

“Not for food” I replied and he gave me a look that was unreadable.

“Perhaps, are you thirsty? I can offer you water, tea, or wine?”

“I will prefer wine” I voiced out softly, biting my lower lip.

“Please sit on the couch and wait for me a little. I'll be back in a jiffy, I just want to get the bottle of wine and glasses” he informed and in less than no time he returned, pouring us each a glass of wine and we sat down on the couch.

“I wasn't sure you would actually come. I mean after you blatantly refused my request” he said.

“Neither was I ever prepared to come here. I had no idea that things wouldn't turn out the way I wanted and I would end up deciding something else that I never thought of and it wasn't part of my plan”

“So why did you choose to accept my request and grace your presence in my beautiful mansion?”

“Oh please. You don't always have to repeat tha

  • THE CEO'S HIDDEN VOWS   chapter 113

    Isabella's POV. I couldn't stop fussing with my hair, even though Declan told me a hundred times that I looked beautiful. But to me it just felt ridiculous, all these efforts just for a dinner on the terrace?.But it wasn't just dinner. It was the first time since the hospital that things felt almost normal. Or maybe it was the first time they ever felt real. He had refused to let me lift a finger and he had arranged everything. They were candles everywhere and tiny twinkling lights, there was also a soft jam playlist floating through the warm night air. The table was set for two with white plates and white glasses that sparkled under the bulbs. Every decoration was very simple but somehow more intimate than any lavish gala we had ever attended together. “Stop looking so nervous Bella” Declan murmured, pressing a kiss to the side of my hair as he pulled out a chair for me to sit down on. “I promise I didn't poison the food” he said and I chuckled at his words.“No, that is not the

    Isabella's POV.I never thought that the cold, sterile scent of a hospital could become my second skin. It clung to my hair, my clothes, and even my lungs.But hours before I had been in our living room with Declan. I was teasing him about his laughter when my whole world collapsed It was like my body instantly gave up and my legs scrambled beneath me as the floor hurried to take me away. And I felt a sharp pain in my chest before I finally lost consciousness. The next thing I realized was I could feel my body in Declan's arms. I could feel how his heart thundered against my cheeks as he cradled me in his arms.“Bella, please stay with me. Damn it. Just open your eyes Bella” he begged but I couldn't open my eyes. The darkness I felt was heavy and thick. But I also had the vibration of his voice and how frantic he carried me up, holding me like I was the most precious and fragile thing in the whole world.“Call the driver!” I heard Declan scream at someone but I didn't know who it w

    Levi's POV.I never thought I could lose everything so damn quickly. One day, I was the man who walked into rooms with his head held high and who had investors lining up. I was once the man who slept like a king on silk sheets. But now what was it all about?. Now I was a joke. And a ghost of a man I used to be. I stared at the reflection in the dark mirror of my car. Boxes were piled up everywhere in my car and my assistant quit just two days ago. The bank had called in the last of my loans. And I was living on borrowed time, waiting for the final blow.And I knew exactly who to blame. It was Isabella and Declan Westwood. Together they had torn my life apart as though it was nothing to me and to them.And for what? because I had loved her too much and I refused to let go?. I slammed my fist through the glass as pain exploded up my arm.My life that was once beautiful had turned into a disaster. My entire life was shattered into tiny pieces but it wasn't enough to shut me down compl

  • THE CEO'S HIDDEN VOWS   chapter 110

    Isabella's POV.I never thought I would be the kind of woman who sits at a polished table, calmly planning the financial downfall of someone who once swore he loved me.But here I was in the private conference room of Declan's estate as papers were placed before my table. Declan leaned back in his chair, watching me with that steady unreadable gaze of his that somehow made my pulse skip. He didn't say a word as he allowed me to take the lead, this was my war to fight and he was simply arming me.I traced a finger over the contract in front of me. “So once I sign this. Levi's company liquidity dries up and his investors will pull out. His loans will get called in and by Monday he is going to drown” I asked as Declan nodded his head at me.“Exactly. You are going to be squeezing him until he cannot breathe anymore. His empire even if it's small, compared to ours starts to crumble” he revealed and I swallowed hard as a strange heat coiled in my chest.Was it a triumph? Or guilt? God I w

    Ryan's POV.I always thought that Cairo was predictable. But she was cunning and reckless in the way only a woman with nothing to lose could be.She had come to my office dozens of times and she wouldn't leave without singing My Name multiple times, or pressing her body close to me hoping to slip under my skin.Tonight was no different except from the fact that I was more irritable and more disgusted by my own thoughts. I was alone in my office with a glass of whiskey in my hand. My mind wasn't on Cairo instead it was on Isabella. On how she had laughed at me the last time I cornered her, and how she had clunged to Declan instead.My stomach twisted inside of me because I was angry. And I felt a pathetic ache that made me want to smash the glass in my hand just to feel it cut.Then the door swung open without a knock. Cairo stepped inside, wearing a silk dress that barely clung to her curves. Her hair was styled in loose waves as her perfume instantly hit me.“Ryan” she called out my

    Declan's POV.I hadn't slept properly in days. My home office was littered with empty coffees and cold takeout boxes.Half of the boxes were stained with sauce I didn't even remember eating. The screen in front of me kept replaying the damn tape that had wrecked Isabella's life.Over and over again even when her face twisted in pain as she felt humiliated in front of the whole world. Except now. When I saw that it was all fake.“We have run the footage through multiple detection models” Jason said as he pushed his glasses up.Jason had been my lead tech guy for years and I didn't fail to notice the way his eyes darted nervously. He was terrified of me and it was for a good reason. I had screamed at them non-stop for the past forty eight hours.“And what else?” I demanded with a rough voice.“Everything is AI manipulated and the facial movement doesn't match the micro muscle patterns. The voice is cloned and as you can see here” he said as he pointed at the screen, his fingers trembli
