Entering the office, she could feel the anger in her coming to a peak as soon as she saw her husband sulking in his chair, she had overheard the conversation between Audrey and her husband and was visibly disappointed at his reaction.Mrs White had always been a fierce and ruthless lady known for her calculative and greedy ways, she was exceptionally brutal towards everyone around her and her husband was not an exception."What do you think you are doing!" Mrs white shouted in a ringing tone that sent shivers down the spine of her husband startling him out of his chair."I- I'm thinking," he stammered, his voice seemingly low and palpable. he knew his wife's presence commanded trouble and that was far from what he needed at the moment."Thinking?" Mrs white inquired glancing a quick defying glance at him. "And just what are you thinking about? you couldn't even stand up to that little girl," she continued looking at him in disappointment. "You think you could have done a better job?
Immediately Isabella heard the alarm, she felt an Instant uproar in her stomach as the nostalgia of her last visit reminisced through her mind yearning for a non-repeated dialogue, she had hoped for this day not to come.Turning on the bed, she prayed for a way out from this unfortunate ordeal but she knew there wasn't going to be any. Isabella had promised herself not to return home after her last visit which had almost cost her sanity, she just couldn't seem to fathom why her biological mother and sister would treat her with so much disgust.As the sun gradually began to rise into a full day, Isabella could feel the weight of its presence choking her into reality."We should be out before noon," Vincent announced, in a warm voice as he joyfully got up to prepare for his daily activities.Looking at Vincent walk away she wondered why he was so much in a good mood to meet her family. "Why is he happy?" she scuffed angrily in a quiet voice, feeling the mockery of Vincent's mood as he m
Isabella leaving the house with Vincent only made Angel's heart leap for joy, as the thought of Timothy fully becoming hers overwhelmed her, she had so much wished to be betrothed to him instead of her sister, and with Isabella out of the way, Timothy was now hers alone.As Angel daydreamed of her wedding to Timothy and living happily ever after, she hummed to her favorite song oblivious to her surroundings.Why Mary on the other was so vexed about this sudden advancement, she didn't expect Isabella to be this lucky with men after all she had tried to make sure Angel took the spotlight, but that was not the problem. As Angel returned from her unending daydream, she turned to face her mother who was lost in thought.Angel could feel the unease that was radiating through her mother's eyes and then it dawned on her, that Isabella was the luckier one, getting married to someone as influential and rich as Vincent Storm would be the dream of every beautiful lady in the country."But why Is
Waking to a rather ominous day, Mary wished for otherwise, as she prepared to go over to the whites, she feared the outcome but knew she had no other option. It had already been up to a week after Isabella and Vincent visited, she had previously made up her mind to keep the whites in the dark concerning Isabella's wedding to Vincent but she had found it difficult to get the perfect plan, and Mrs white on the other hand had called her asking about Isabella's whereabouts, and it was only wise for her to explain things out to the white's.Mary just couldn't keep up with the pretense anymore, because even if she had wanted to do something about Isabella's absence from work, she knew that she no longer had control over her daughter and to make matters worse, Isabella was nowhere to be found as Mary had been told she had moved out from her old place."I'm off to the whites," She announced turning to Angel who was busy on her phone, they had earlier had a discussion about this and had concl
Without any further delay, Mr white swung into action, and in the next twenty-four hours the court paper was already on its way to Isabella, even with how difficult it was it still managed to get her new address.Since the incident after they went to Isabella's family house, Vincent had taken his new mission seriously making sure Isabella was not stressed in any way, he had even gone out of his way to always provide whatever meal she wanted even if it meant him skipping some time at work.That fateful morning, Isabella had woken up to a treat from Vincent, she could perceive the nice aroma coming from the kitchen, and as she got up she saw a written on the table close to the bed."Freshen up and come straight to the dining!" it read boldly and with a huge smile Isabella moved to freshen up, she wondered what Vincent was cooking up and could not stop herself from her unending smile. As she got to the dining table, Isabella was visibly taken by surprise at the amount of delicacies Vinc
Isabella could not believe this, Audrey had been her only hope of getting away from this problem, "What is going to happen to me now?" Isabella exclaimed biting hard on her lips, Audrey had never failed in getting a solution to their problem and this only meant she was doomed. "Calm down Bella," Audrey said trying to console her from her constant wailing. " There must be a way, we just have to figure a way out," she continued, as she ransacked her mind in search of other options," "But you said they have all the evidence in the contract!" Isabella noted bringing attention to the obvious. "I believe there is more to Mr. White's allegation than just having a wedding," Audrey stated he words firm and assertive, "Come to think of it, you were engaged to be married to Timothy New House while under this contract and he never had issues with it," Audrey continued. "What are you trying to say?" Isabella asked her interest suddenly piqued by Audrey's acclaim, if Mr White knew she would
The stout, middle-aged man looked at Isabella with concern in his eyes. "Are you feeling under the weather, miss? Why don't you come with me? I have a room where you can rest," he offered kindly.Isabella's smile, though forced, was enough to distract the well-meaning Mr. White. "Mr. White, look over there!" she exclaimed, pointing to the distance. "Isn't that your wife? You might want to go say hello."Mr. White, now thrown off-balance, quickly turned to follow Isabella's finger. "Is that...Oh dear," he muttered, his attention fully on the supposed figure of his wife.Isabella, taking advantage of the opportunity, hurriedly made her way towards the exit, her hand clutched on her stomach.In the wealthy circle, it was common knowledge that while Mr. White might be a powerful figure outside, his wife was the undisputed queen of their home.This fact was not lost on Isabella's mother and sister, who had previously tried to win Mrs. White's favor to climb the social ladder. But Isabella w
Timothy pushed the door open and barged in. He grabbed Yao's high-necked shirt and saw the marks on Isabella's neck. He was enraged, feeling like he could strangle this woman right then and there.He grabbed Isabella's neck, trembling with anger. "How could you be so despicable? A woman as filthy as you doesn't deserve to be the wife of Newhouse. Since that's the case, let's call off the engagement. You're not worthy!"Even if the engagement were to be called off, it would be him who initiated it. This woman wouldn't have the chance to leave him!Angel, on the side, covered her smile and hurried over to tug at Timothy's sleeve. With teary eyes, she pleaded for Isabella, "Timothy, please calm down. Isabella has grown up and has her own thoughts now. It's my fault for calling you over."Upon hearing Angel's words, Timothy regained his composure and released his grip.For a moment, he had actually considered choking the woman to death.No, he wouldn't lose control because of her.Isabell
