Chapter 101 Ghost of the Past

Isabella’s POVI wasn’t the only one shocked. I can see everyone has the same reaction as me, but the only thing missing from their expressions was the pain. The pain that’s consuming me slowly right now, like a small fire, melting me second after second. The pain couldn’t be described in words. It is more than a torment. More than a deafening whisper of my crying heart.“M-Mommy!” Noah’s voice cracked. I could feel his pain, longingness, and even happiness.He’s just a child who had been longing for a mother. A child who would normally run to his mother to hug her again. But that normal thing broke me inch by inch.Noah’s arms were trembling and wrapped around that woman’s legs.My hands trembled as I felt something heavy in my heart. My throat felt sore as I held my tears back. My chest heaving. My eyes fixed on the scene in front of me.“What took you so long? I waited for you!” Noah cried miserably as the woman squatted in front of him and caressed his cheeks.I swallowed hard. Ma

Chapter 102 I Fixed Them

Isabella’s POVI know that my relationship with Matteo and Noah was compromised the moment Stella showed up. Her sudden arrival on the day of Noah’s birthday spread like wildfire. It became the talk of the town, and I was involved in it. People are calling me names. Some are on my side, but mostly they’re accusing me of trying to ruin a family.A mistress.Matteo assured me that their marriage ended a long time ago, but the worry, fear, and pain resided in my heart, haunting me every second.I couldn’t even focus on my paper work. I kept on thinking about what happened on Noah's birthday, and it’s been two days since that happened.Things got too complicated with Noah. He rarely talks and he would push everyone away. It affected the whole mansion that even the maids were anxious because Matteo had been in a bad mood for two straight days.I was the only one trying to calm the tide but insisting on a conversation everyday and offering things to make Noah and Matteo feel better. But I’m

Chapter 103 Rights

Isabella’s POV“So, she was the woman who changed your mood before. Your ex-wife,” I broke the deafening silence while Matteo was driving home. I don’t like the silence. I feel like he’s keeping me in the dark if he’s not saying anything.“What do you mean?” Matteo glanced at me. He looked truly confused.I took a deep sigh and looked at my hands. “That day. When you went to me in a bad mood.”A few moments of silence before I heard him exhaled sharply. He pulled the car over and faced me. I had no other choice but to look at him or else he would feel that I’m not content with this kind of setup. I don’t want his ex-wife showing up wherever she wants. I hate the idea.“It’s not because of her. It’s because she’s too arrogant to show up even after everything. I hate everything about her,” he said, staring at me with all the honesty in his eyes.Hate is a strong word, and if he hates her, it’s probably his feelings driven by pain and disappointment. He still feels something for her. And

Chapter 104 Damsel in Distress

Isabella’s POVShould I just accept Matteo’s offer to get our marriage license even without a proper wedding?I understand that Stella is just a mother who wants to be part of her child’s life, but her dream is a torture to me. It keeps me from thinking rationally. It keeps me wide awake at night.“Uhm… Are you really Noah’s mother?” The homeroom teacher seemed confused as she saw me standing by the door. “Mrs. Moretti—”Stella chuckled, interrupting the homeroom teacher who was about to call me. “Mrs. Moretti?” She turned to me. “So, you completely stole everything from me.”I swallowed hard and sucked in a deep breath. Slowly, I entered the classroom. I have the right. Matteo gave me the right.I stopped in front of the homeroom teacher and slightly bowed my head. “I apologize for the misunderstanding, Miss. I’m Isabella Clarkson, and I’m Matteo Moretti’s fiance. This woman here…” I slowly turned to Stella. “...is the biological mother and Matteo’s ex-wife.”Whispers from other pare

Chapter 105 Tugged at the Heartstrings

Isabella’s POVMy faith in Matteo’s love is being tested to an extent.Standing in front of Stella, kneeling in front of Matteo is too much for me.She looked miserable. Her palms clasped. Her lips quivering. Her eyes overflowed with tears.A perfect picture of pain and distress.She was crying, but I could see the evilness behind those tears. Like she was trying to make her existence known. Like she was trying to ruin a life that she wasn’t part of. And it was Matteo and Noah’s life with me.“Matteo…” Stella cried harder, trying to reach Matteo’s hand, but he moved away.The scene made Noah’s cries intensify. He was in so much pain seeing his mother begging and crying for a little time with him. It was a perfect way to get into his heart.“Mommy!” Noah cried so hard. His desperate cries shattered my heart into tiny pieces. He was too young to understand the situation. He was only seeing his mother. He was only seeing her pain and it pains him too.“Didn’t I make it clear to never sho

Chapter 106 Unturned Pages

Isabella’s POVHe didn’t comfort her.He didn’t touch her.He didn’t console her.But his silence was so cold. And it suffocated me.The drive home was painfully and heavily quiet. The scene earlier played in my head in loop.I kept my eyes outside the window, trying so hard to divert my attention, but I failed.I looked at Matteo. He wasn’t saying anything. He was just driving, eyes fixed on the road, jaws clenched, straight face. I didn’t see anger. I didn’t see regrets, or anything. Not even sadness of his dying ex-wife.“Are you okay?” I asked, unable to hold it in any longer. The longer the silence, the longer my heart suffers in pain. I couldn’t stand his silence. I couldn’t stand the coldness.He didn’t look at me, not even a single glance. “I’m fine.”Liar. I could feel the heaviness behind those words. Like it wasn’t meant for me, but for him. To remind him that he should be fine.He was raising his walls. He was wearing his armor again. The same armor he wore before to hide

Chapter 107 Guilt

Isabella’s POVMatteo gave me so much assurance. His words that day were enough to give me peace, but something keeps on bothering me inside. It was consuming me, and I couldn’t do anything to fight it.I took a deep sigh while sitting on the couch inside my office.“That’s your fifth sigh since I came here,” Melinda said, sipping on her juice. She visited me today, and I told her what has been happening in my life. She saw my engagement ring, but she didn’t ask until I told her about it. I appreciate that she doesn’t intervene in my personal affairs even when we’re friends.I bit my bottom lip. “Did you ever feel so bad about something, Melinda?”She stared at me. “When I dropped out of school to work for my family at a young age, yes. I felt so bad for myself.”I looked down, playing with my fingers. “Matteo's ex-wife is back.”“Everyone knows. People talk,” Melinda answered calmly. Of course, she knew. Stella’s begging in Noah’s school has been the talk of the town for almost a wee

Chapter 108 Silent Betrayal

Isabella’s POVShe smiled at me, apologetic and awkward. “Hi. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to disturb you two. Noah won’t let me go. He wants me to sleep here tonight since Matteo didn’t agree when he requested to stay overnight in my apartment.”I couldn’t answer. I was just staring at Stella, unable to utter a single. I can’t even move. I wanted to refuse and drive her away, but the happiness and hope in Noah’s eyes kept me at the edge.“No!” Matteo’s voice roared like thunder.I felt like a double edge knife had struck my heart. Noah no longer needs me.“Papa, please…” Noah begged like his life was on the line.I couldn’t blame him. But I also couldn’t hide the pain.Matteo stood beside me, his hands no longer holding mine. His jaws were clenched. His eyes were sharp. His expression was dark. A strong disapproval was written on his face, but I know he’s giving in.They say this man is ruthless and heartless. But I can’t see that. It’s not like I want him to be evil. I just…I just want

Chapter 109 Guilt and Realizations

Isabella’s POV“You’re avoiding him?” Melinda asked after sipping on her coffee.We’re in the coffee shop. I asked to meet her here because I’m going crazy thinking about what happened last night. Stella left the mansion this morning, and I haven’t talked to Matteo. Noah apologized to me this morning and I forgave him, of course. He’s just a kid.“Yes,” I answered as I stirred my coffee in a cup. My eyes were fixed on the cream swirling into the dark coffee, mixing into a balanced color.Melinda sighed. She was sitting across from me, and I know she’s watching me intently.“What’s your plan?” She asked after a few minutes.I took a deep sigh and looked at her. “I don’t know. I feel like I’m being punished for something I didn’t even do. Like…there has been a constant trial in my head. Unending, like a cycle.”She nodded as if she understood me. “That’s what guilt does. It will consume you, slowly, painfully. You would try to reason out and fight it, but there’s only two endings to tha

Chapter 110 Words Needed to be Said

Isabella’s POVThe talk with Giana and Melinda somehow made me feel better. The only thing I’m carrying in my heart now is my decision about my relationship with Matteo.Melinda is right. I am the problem. I should fix myself first before I try to fix my relationship with him. He already gave me an assurance. I trust his love for me.When I got home, it was already dark. Matteo was waiting in the living area. The light was dimmed. He’s the only one sitting on the couch while holding a glass of whiskey. He pulled himself up when he saw me entering the house.“Isabella…” He kissed my cheek, but I didn’t react.He stared at me, realizing there’s something wrong. “What’s wrong? What happened?”I stared into his eyes. “Matteo, my insecurity is consuming me…”His forehead creased. “Isabella, if this is about what happened last night, I’m sorry. I’m sorry, please…”I swallowed hard. “Matteo…”“I didn’t mean to just stand there. It wasn’t my intention to make you feel that way. I didn’t mean
