Isabella's POVThe moment they walked passed me I ran back to my room, i felt pressured right there like I would pee on my body.What I just witnessed feared me so much?Who are these people? What do they do? What have I gotten myself into?Various questions just kept popping into my head and I only just answered Nate the night before that I was going to stay here to work for him.Why didn't this happen earlier?I just hope I've not made the wrong decision in my life.I knew I had to go downstairs to start my work but I was scared,l feared for what might happen to me behind this room door.I summoned courage, put on a bold face and made my way downstairs to the kitchen.I entered the kitchen, I met the women in there and I greeted them.They replied to me but I could sense something wasn't right. The reply was dry, it was without humour.Everywhere was cold, is everything okay? I asked.Lisa then cautioned me to keep quiet, now this isn't funny anymore. What in the world is going on?
Mike's POVI have been getting calls repeatedly from unknown numbers, my friends also to me the news of some men taking Isabella.The work I went for was very important and it involved my father. I couldn't let him down.I have been living a low-profile life for some time now. I love to keep it that way, I don't want anyone to link with my father Mr. Sam Lewis, all-time political Godfather, with me.I've had issues with my father severally saying I tarnish his name and image in society with my wayward lifestyle.This has made me keep a low profile so the media cannot get anything against me to call my father's name out.After I got the call from my friends about Isabella, I was very worried sick and disturbed by my bones.I found it hard to concentrate on work…then the calls I was getting from unrecognised numbers added to my worry.I came back to town and I've been on the lookout for Isabella but I've not been able to get information about her whereabouts.I was yet to reply to misse
Isabella's POVAfter the discussion I had with Lisa in the living, I was left speechless. I didn't know Lisa had such a terrible past and I might have wondered why she was exceptionally sweet towards me.She said she saw her young self in me and that almost broke me to tears.We were silent for a while until she broke the silence saying she was fine and all better now. She said I didn't need to feel sorry for her anymore because she had gone past it.That's reliving, she's healed now I guess. I hugged her and She smiled at me and left. I stood up too and went to my room.I wasn't comfortable in the room, it was hot and very uncomfortable. I was also bored to my bones. I decided to go into the study since Nate wasn't home and it was pretty still early for him to return home for work.I went up to the study room and went inside. I did not know much about books but seeing them all well arranged and properly organised by genres and alphabetical order was nice to behold.I didn't know wh
Isabella's POVI stepped far away from Nate trying to phantom what just happened, how I got myself in that situation and how to get out of it.I tried to keep a steady composure. All the while Nate's eyes were on me but I care less.I just wanted to leave there at that moment. We said nothing to each other. The knock came again, even louder this time, then Nate eventually answered.He went to the door then he blocked the other person from coming in or seeing inside. I smiled at the consideration as he thought of me when he did this.It was Damien who was at the door and the way he was speaking to Nate it seemed as though the matter was urgent.I heard him say they should go outside the house to discuss the issue. I was sure he did this for me to have space to leave the study without being seen.I left the study after a few minutes, I opened the door gently so it didn't make any sound then tiptoed to my room.I was glad I made it to my room without being caught by anyone.Nate's POVAs
Isabella's POV As Nate stepped into the kitchen, the atmosphere became thick.You could sense that everyone was tensed to their bones.He spoke up and said to the women that I wasn’t there or probably he couldn't see me, he referred to them alone, especially to Lisa, as she is the oldest amongst them.He said he will be going out with the guys and they won't be coming home until they've resolved some issues they are facing presently.So he wants her to take charge of the house affairs and she should make sure to not miss any time to feed everyone they usually do.He left as soon as Lisa told him that she would do everything according to how it's always been done.We all took a deep breath as he stepped out of the kitchen.The women have themselves some kind of worried and concerned look and you could tell there were some unspoken words under those looks.It seem may as though this isn't the first time something like this is happening and they know the gravity or the length at which t
Nate's POVWho is that person that wants to mess with me and my work? I said faceing DanThen he answered me and said the person is Mr Levi, he is my competitor.Mr Levi, that name I don't know but he is also about to find out the kind of person I am.By the time I'm done with him, he will know not to try me ever again.Get me all the information I need to know about Levi. Also, the most important part is that I want to know where is hide out is.I'll attack his camp and deal with him and his guys.The rage I feel can't be quantified and I was ready to crush everyone who stands in my way.I'll make sure that he pays dearly for everything he has done.Isabella's POV The silent mood continued in the house even after Nate had gone for a while.I went to my room and stayed there instead.I remembered I was reading a book in the study and I wanted to go to the study to continue the book I started, so I stood up to leave.As I was going, I remembered what happened earlier between me and N

How come now I'm the own looking for them?I'm all worried and worked up about Isabella's whereabouts or disappearance, and then this person who proposed work to me isn't reachable all of a sudden.The private investigator has yet to give me promising news concerning Isabella.Also, my father is on my neck about work and me not tarnishing his name.Everything is pissing me off even.I decided to go out with my guys, we met up at our favourite bar place to have some drinks.We stayed there for a while before we headed back to our respective homes. I was drunk and I didn't know what I was doing.I got to the door and started banging it, calling out Isabella's name loudly. I did this for a while before I remembered that she wasn't with me anymore, I treated her badly and she left.I laughed at my pathetic self. I can't believe this is me.Isabella's POVLisa got
