In The Shadows
Isabella's POV
My mother has only been here for a few days but I am already tired of seeing her face, I just don't want to be Arin them anymore and now I actually have a shot at happiness for once in my lifez even if the shot will cost me millions of dollars.
I wish I can say that understand why my mother is doing this but I don't, I don't get it all. I have been thinking about Tristan a lot these days. He is always on my mind, so much so that I even imagine seeing him in places.
I left him and I told him that what we had was over when the truth was that what we had was only beginning. I don't like that it ended before it even started, I didn't even give myself a chance to see where it would all go.
Mama has had me going around the city in all the tip restaurants searching for our next mark. I hated that I had to do this again, that I would have to scam some guy who loves me. I know what I want

I don't know if it is a last born thing or not but I am not okay with the fact that my father is dying.

The Billion Dollar Scam Life Of A Party (Part Two)
Isabella's POV The limo took us to a hotel, I have no doubts that this is a five star hotel. When he said that it was a charity event I didn't think it was going to be this fancy. We got out of the car and the driver opened the door. Flashes of cameras came in blindingly when we got out of the car. Everyone called out Nick's name and wanted to talk to him. I guess he is more famous than I thought which might just be a problem because I do not want to be in limelight. "Nick, Nick is this your new girlfriend?" One reporter asked. "Yes my very private girlfriend..." He said. I must admit that as much as I hated all the attention, I loved that my face was hidden under a mask, I loved that no one could really recognise me like this. I just smiled and waved at the camera on the red carpet. New York is nothing like home, the people here are nothing like the
