Isabella's POVAfter laughing and tiring ourselves out, she looked at me cunningly and said, you weren't going to stop me from leaving right?Look at you, trying to run from me, if only you know I came prepared for you.I glared at her and just shook my head.I knew for a fact that there was no stopping Isabella.I told her since we have a long time together we should head downstairs to help the ladies out.We will have all the time to have our discussion later.She agreed and we both went downstairs.When we got to the kitchen, the ladies were already there.They were prepping for dinner, we just joined in immediately.I am so blessed to be among such wonderful, beautiful and amazing people.Anytime I see them, I know if I was counting my blessings, I would have to count them twice.They made my life easy and comfortable.After about a few hours of prepping and cooking, we were done.Lisa and Christabel were going out to share food while Thelma and Anna were left to clean the kitchen
Isabella's POVHow come I didn't take note of it?I asked in amazement.Thelma fired back at me saying,How would you have taken note of it when what you had in mind was how to get mad at me for having done this for you?Oh… come on Thelma.It's not like that and I'm sure you know it.Everything is pretty strange to me.I don't know how to act when I'm with these people.It was only a talk I had with Nate and there was nothing again after that.I don't even see him around.All this act will make everyone around here treat me differently.I don't even know how I should do that.I'm a bit nervous as it is.How would I react when I see Nate eventually?Oh, don't worry my dear.We will do something about it.You will talk to him on the phone and that will definitely help ease you down.I can imagine how you feel about all this.The thing is everyone is also happy with what is on the ground.They really like you around here and I want it to remain that way.We will fight this together okay
Isabella's POVI met Lisa in the kitchen and I greeted her, she replied to me and continued with what she was doing.She was already prepping for today's work.Anna entered the kitchen not long after I came in.I greeted her too and went she also replied, and then she asked after Thelma.She's still asleep I told her.Anna then said, she was going to clean the house and she would be starting from the study in case Nate comes home.He needs to meet every clean and since the study has not been in use for some time now she said the place was dusty.Nate might be coming home, the thought of that sent chills down my spine.It makes me blush.Anna carried her cleaning materials and left the kitchen.I hurriedly shook off my reaction so no one would notice my mini excitement and body reactions to the thought of having Nate come home here.I went close to Lisa to see what I could help her with.My being in this house after such a long time was weird.Being in this kitchen was weirder for me,
Isabella's POVThelma took a while in the bathroom, you might think she was washing away all of her sins for taking so much time in the bathroom.By the time she eventually got out, I had already given up on waiting for her.I went into Nate's study to get a book to read.It was when I returned to the room from the study I met Thelma in the room, finally out of the bathroom.What were you doing in the bathroom for that long? I asked herWere you trying to wash away all of your sins in one day? I teased her again.She just gave a little laugh before turning to me.I usually take time in the bathroom and I'm sure you know this already, so what's the fuss about, she said as she rolled her eyes at me.And by the way, where did you go?I didn't see you when I got out of the bathroom.Where were you and what's that you have in your hand, she asked as she pointed at the book I was holding.Oh this…it's a book, I got bored and tired of waiting for you so I went to Nate's study to get a book t
Isabella's POVI froze in that instant as I wasn't expecting Nate to pick up his call.It had been ringing for over a minute and I thought he wasn't going to answer it.Thelma looked at me suspiciously and told me to speak.On the other end, I heard Nate's voice, his manly voice, it sent chills all over my body.I can't believe this is happening right now though.“Hello, hello, he said to me while Thelma was prompting me to answer him.I gave in after a few seconds of fear and doubt.Hi…uhm hello, I was stuttering.Whose is on the line please, he asked sharply.Oh sorry, it's Isabella.Your maid, Isabella.Thelma hit me for referring to myself as the maid.I don't know what she was expecting me to say.Would I have introduced myself to him as his girlfriend? Who wouldn't have his own girlfriend's number?Why doesn't he have my number all this while?That's not too much to ask right or is it?I thought to myself as I listened to him.He said, My maid or my girl?That made me chuckle a
Nate's POVSince I left Isabella in the kitchen after I kissed her, I have longed to be with her.I almost forfeited going to work that very day, right at that moment.I had her all through my mind, and thoughts of her kept on crossing my mind.It took me my strongest willpower and urge from my driver for me to eventually succumb to going to work.Work seemed very slow, I was moody all through as my mind wasn't at work, my mind was to be with Isabella wherever she was.However, there was little or nothing I could do about it because I needed to attend to the pressing issues at work.Jane had come into my office severally to either bring me coffee or to tell me of a new meeting schedule or to bring a new document that needed to be signed or to even ask me about food.She was against me just sitting and working.She told me to take breaks in between work so I don't drain myself easily.If only she knew I was already drained and I needed to charge up really bad and really quick.It was on
Nate's POV We continued talking and gisting to get her for a while even though there were awkward silent moments before we eventually said our goodbyes.Though unwanted to keep talking to her on the phone I didn't have much to say to her now and I also didn't want to rush her so we ended the call.Having received this call from Isabella just now I was very happy.It lightened up my mood.I immediately became charged up because I'd just spoken with Isabella.I can't really place what she does to me, but I knew for sure that she's somehow some type of healing to me.I can't think of any other person I'd rather be with other than her.In all honesty, I'd never thought that there would be a time when I'd like someone so much like this.I didn't think that I would ever love again, I never thought I was capable of loving anyone anymore after what had happened to the one I loved before.I believed I wasn't good enough and I wouldn't be able to keep them safe but being with Isabella changed
Nate's POVHe took a sit in front of my desk and we started discussing about business.I was at first shocked that he had arrived so quickly because my secretary had only got back to him about five minutes ago that he could come over.Seeing him here not long after made me wonder if was in the neighbourhood before.It was as if he read my mind and he knew what I was thinking because he gave me the right answer to my bother.Sorry for coming into your office on just short notice, I was actually in the neighbourhood and I thought that I'd reach out to you to know if you are available so we could discuss our partnership progress.I was shocked at his statement but I didn't make a visible reaction.Alright by me, I said I'm the coolest of tone.Something always doesn't just feel right with me anytime I meet with this man.I could not tell what it was but I usually feel some odd energy around him.I wanted to place know what it was by all means and I'm pretty sure I will find that out soon
