"I'm glad you called; we'd have driven straight to the hospital after work." Sean hugged Isabelle in the backyard. She had decided to enjoy a bowl of strawberries while Christian held a meeting online in his office."Imagine the pain of finding out that you're not there." Dion faked a sob as he hugged Isabelle too, his arms lingering comfortingly on her back. "Quit whining; at least I told you." They plopped down beside her on the bench, enjoying the sunset. Minutes after sitting down, Isabelle's phone rang. She was tempted to let it go to voicemail but decided against it when she realized it was Russell calling."Your mother failed the poligraph test; she didn't get some questions right." She almost rolled her eyes, bored with being told information she already had an inkling about. "I know. I talked to my father, and he told me she knew about his uncle—that they worked for him." Isabelle nonchalantly replied, even though deep down her chest was becoming heavy.Sean and Dion stood
"Tell me, and if you dare leave any information, and I find out;" Isabelle paused with a warning scoff."Forget ever seeing me again." She finished the statement, walking back towards her mother in slow, calculated steps."I'll tell you everything, but... I might go to jail." Isabelle's mother hung her head, swallowing thickly. She knew the dirty business deal she had with her in law could land her a sentence. "Isabelle wouldn't do that to you; clearly, you don't even know the kind of daughter you raised." Christian spat, holding Isabelle as she stood beside him in front of her mother."She is forgiving; otherwise, she wouldn't be here right now trying to listen to you," Sean added, his anger towards the woman refusing to simmer. He didn't agree with Isabelle that her mother had kept quiet about her father's violence to protect her. Dion wasn't any different; he felt that the woman was selfish as they came. She reminded him of his own adoptive parents, who lied to him for years."You
A sudden, deafening silence filled the hospital room. Jaws dropped, eyes widened, and hearts stuttered while every single person in the room turned to look at Dion. Isabelle could feel Christian's grip on her hip tighten, but she didn't realize that her feet no longer had the strength to hold her upper body. Dion's teary eyes met with Mrs. Jenkins's similar ones, and everything in that room paused. The two looked at each other as their systems rebooted to accept the reality of the situation. "My baby."That was the first utterance that broke the silence, accompanied by an unexplainable tone. Isabelle's mother didn't feel her body or recognize her own actions as she pushed the sheets off her body. Drowned in shock, nobody had the energy to stop Mrs. Jenkins from getting off the bed."My baby." She repeated in a broken voice, walking past her bed to where Dion stood in the arms of Sean. "Oh god." The woman's heart beat erratically as her brain resumed functioning. When she finally sto
"I wonder why this silly hospital allows stupid people to visit any time they wish." Mr. Jenkins scoffed, sitting up on his bed, when Isabelle and the rest of the group entered his room. He looked again, this time spotting his wife, who entered after everyone else, stunning the old man. His jaw dropped, his eyes widening as if he had seen a ghost."Thought I'd be dead by now?" Isabelle's mother mocked, her wet lips stretching into a challenging smile."The boyfriend and the stupid fella who pretended to be the CEO..." He pointed at Christian and Sean, respectively, ignoring his wife. Then he shifted his eyes to Dion, whose hands were clenched into balls of fists. The only thing running through his mind was punching the man who dared hurt his sister."And who might you be?" He scratched his chin, looking at Sean's hands around Dion's waist. He scrunched up his nose and then faked spitting on the hospital floor. Sean growled lowly, a burning feeling rising from the pit of his stomach. I
"You didn't even want him in the first place!" Albert argued, shutting his mouth when Jenkins stepped on his left bare foot. Before he could continue assaulting the man, the door burst open, with a number of officers getting in."What the fuck are you doing?" Isabelle's father shouted when an officer pushed him down on his knees and then handcuffed him."Putting cuffs on you." The officer stated the obvious, forcing the older man to his feet."We had a fucking deal, you twits!" He seethed, trying to wiggle out of the damn cuffs. "That deal expired the minute we uncovered the truth behind all these...Did you really believe that you could get away with it?" Baron and Russell got inside, with Baron smirking victoriously at Jenkins."What are you talking about?" Dion was confused. His adoptive parents were arrested and guided outside to the waiting van."This man here played us, or wanted to play us." Jenkins scoffed, stumbling when he was pushed forward towards the door."We just took t
"Oh, god, baby." Isabelle moaned, arching her back into Christian's skilled and talented hands. He massaged the top of her right breast while he kissed her neck. He moved his hand along the curve of her boob, raising her sexual frustration. "Babe!" Isabelle complained, throwing up her hands in the air."What do you want?" Christian whispered against her ear, his husky voice sending heat straight between Isabelle's legs. He took the earlobe in his warm mouth, biting gently on it. Isabelle squirmed, her entire body shivering in pleasure and anticipation."Please babe." Isabelle whispered, tilting her head to expose the side of her neck to Christian as he left open-mouth kisses."That's not an answer, love." Christian smirked against her cheek as he pecked her. "Please." Isabelle added with her droopy eyes, staring at Christian as his face hovered above hers. He smirked against her lips and then dipped, capturing the soft pink flesh gently. Isabelle hummed, tilting her head to give Chr
"Nnh." Christian moaned in his sleep, or so he thought. Before his eyes opened, he could feel warmth and softness wrapping around his cock. Tingles of pleasure slithered up his spine, slowly consuming him. Isabelle hummed between his legs under the comforter, taking her time to lick his hard cock."Damn baby." Christian groaned in a deep, sleepy voice, biting his lower lip to gain some control. He clutched the sheets on either side, feeling Isabelle's mouth. She pushed off the comforter, taking a deep breath after a minute of staying under the comforter. "Good morning, babe." Isabelle smiled seductively, holding Christian's cock at the base. She looked at his hazy eyes, full of sleep and arousal, as he spread his legs further. "What a fine morning!" Christian's voice ascended when his girlfriend leaned again, wrapping the bulbous head with her beautiful lips."Oh fuck!" He thrust upward, making Isabelle's eyes water as she strained to take him in her small mouth. It wasn't a secret;
"I'm so sorry for leaving yesterday without talking much." Dion stated the moment Isabelle entered Sean's office. Christian had a lot of work and a presentation from the IT team. Sean wasn't available either, so that morning it was only Belle and Dion."What's important is how you are feeling." Isabelle hugged her brother, the fact that they were truly related sinking in at that moment. It felt surreal before, but looking at their resemblance, there was no denying it. "I really don't know how I'm feeling, Belle." Dion started, hanging his head when Isabelle sighed. She held his hand and led him out of the office, towards Christian's. Thinking about his insensible, monstrous father was proving a difficult task for Dion. They went straight to Christian's adjoining room and out to the balcony. Isabelle wanted them to have space to talk without interruptions."I didn't know the view was this nice." Dion forced a smile as he placed his forearms on the railings, looking at the dark clouds
