Semua Bab A Deal With The Billionaire CEO: Bab 31 - Bab 40

Isabella 32.Maybe it was the universe giving me a sign that my meeting with Roberto was ordained because the clothes that I ordered came twenty minutes ago on my front porch.I had take quite long in the shower because I had believed that they were going to bring my stuff at exactly thirty minutes. My hear was dry but curly from all the water. I cleaned myself up and opened the box.It was a casual wear and it was also comfortable. I did not bother with makeup so I just wore it all.A denim jeans trousers, a pair of white sneakers and a medium sized white long-sleeved shirt.I ordered a ride and reminisced about the good times I had with Robert. He had been charming and funny. He had introduced me to Camila and that was where the problem started.My life with him was fine until that woman came into the picture. Robert changed completely but I had ignored the signs because I was naive. I wanted to hear what he had to say for himself.I could only imagine wh

Isabella 34.The drive home was painfully silent and grim. Damien did not utter a word to me as he glared angrily ahead while he drove. He drove recklessly and broke several traffic regulations even over taking cars he was too impatient to wait behind.I hastily fastened my seatbelt and held on to the handle by the ceiling close to the door window. While I put absolute trust in his driving skills I was not putting anything to chance. Damien angry driving was terrifying.He got out of the car without a word and walked over to the passenger to open the door for me. Even while mad, he was still kind and courteous. I got down meekly from the vehicle and followed him inside the house. He did not say a word as he headed for the stairs.I was kind of surprised that he was upset because despite my feelings for him, this marriage was still a fake one. I sighed as I went to the kitchen to see the big white box of food. I had worked up an appetite after the whole sordid

Isabella 36.I noticed a quick change in his facial expression as he drove us both out of the parking lot."Did I do something wrong?" I asked him tentatively. He looked so mad and I kept wondering why."Your ex boyfriend's girlfriend is at it again," He said curtly as he drove. I knew in an instant that he was talking about Camila. My happy mood changed to one of dreadful annoyance."What did she want this time?" I asked him."It is not her, but who she hired to come after me," He said. I was puzzled."Who did she hire to come after you?" I asked him."A former employee, the man whose job you took," He said in a dry tone.I recalled the sneering man who openly mocked me before I got the job. He had even called me Bella which I hated. Of course he was walking with Camila. I thought angrily."What did he want?" I asked him."He is taking me to court for wrongful termination of his job and nepotism, whatever the hell that means," He answered in a dismissive manner.He seemed so relaxed

Isabella 38.I had no idea what just happened but it was riveting and unexpected. Damien just turned a man who seemed to believe that he was untouchable into a kneeling begging mess. It happened some minutes after Mr. Chad's lawyer walked out on him.I enjoyed the shocked look etched on Camila's face as her plans failed yet again.I wonders what was in the file that scared the lawyer so much that she left in the middle of negotiations.Puzzled, Chad picked up the file and opened it to peer curiously inside. I saw his face go white from astonishment. He closed the file and stared at Damien in disbelief, the blood leaving his face."You made three mistakes," Damien said as he reclined on his chair."One," He began."You listened to her," He said looking at Camila who faltered under his intense gaze."Two, you brought her here with you, which means that you are selling her company trade secrets, I am going to sue you for that," He proclaimed in a calm serious voice

Isabella 40.The place Robert kept my mother was located in a serene neighborhood just a few kilometers away from the city. It was a high rise loft with a garage and chimney. I pulled over in front of driveway and got out.The apartment had a homely appearance and I remembered that Robert and I had spoken about moving into a house like this whenever we get married. It made me sick to my stomach as made my way to the door.The door opened before I got to it. Robert was standing there in the front with a pleasant smile on his face. He was in a black corporate trousers and tucked in white long sleeve shirt."Welcome, Isabella, Mom is waiting," He said with a beam.He moved in to hug."You touch me, I scream," I coldly said to him. He faltered awkwardly in response.He made way for me to enter into the loft. It was spacious and well furnished with eighties era furniture mixed with modern architecture. It was exactly as I had pictured it but I felt nothing but disgust as
