Nate's POV Yes, it's exactly what you heard.“FLASHBACK TO LAST NIGHT WHEN I GOT A CALL ON MY PHONE”.I got a call from an unknown number and I answered it after going back and forth to choose whether to answer the call or not.I answered and waited for the caller to speak first.Though they said nothing for the first few seconds and the call was awkwardly silent.Until I heard the voice of my worst nightmare.My own brother, the very one that his being has tormented me my whole life.Oh my goodness! Jack exclaimed before asking me what the call was about.That's like trouble calling literally, Jack added.You can say that again man because he actually did come with trouble.What does he say he wants from you now?The company, I answered Jack sharply without batting an eye.What?What do you mean by “the company”? he asked me in a furious tone.The affiliate of the family's business was portioned and shared with me.You know how I have worked day and night for this business.At first
Nate's POV Yes, I know that you do need a solution but first, you should see your father.You need to go meet your father and confront him, ask him about what your brother has said to you.Talk to him and let's find out that your brother isn't just lying about that, hear from him directly. He should say everything that he wants to say to your face.We will know the next line of action when you meet with him.And don't worry, oh I forgot to ask,Have you contacted Dan about this, call him so he can do some findings for you.Yes, he is the one who has been doing all of my findings for me. He was the one who found out about Isabella's ex-boyfriend and also the great link I needed for the contract.He was also the one who found out about their link, he told me the person who I'm working with was the same person who has hurt Isabella for the longest of times.He is a dumb asshole.I was even at Dan's place yesterday to meet with him. It was when I got back from his place that I got a call
Nate's POVAndrew's surprise to hear me want to go home tonight amused me.I know he and Damien have volunteered a couple of times to convey me to work anytime I want to instead of me staying at the office but I have turned down their favour.He must be amazed to hear me want to go home now that I have more pressing issues at hand all thanks to my so-called brother.I just really need to visit the house today and see everyone before I proceed to see my father and work on other plans to get me out of this mess.I walked inside and I met Jane at her desk.I remembered that I didn't see the office driver downstairs when we arrived so I asked Jane about his whereabouts.“Where did the driver go?”I don't know exactly sir, but I got a call from the security unit downstairs not long after you left, they said that the driver came to them with a complaint.A complaint? Yes sir.What complaint is that?They said he came over to their unit and told them that he had an emergency to attend to an
Isabella's POVI woke up looking gummy, I was mad at Nate for not reaching out to me last night.What is happening?Have I done something wrong this time?I oddly missed him so much.I wanted to see him or at least hear his voice but what can I do when he promised to reach out to me but he hasn't.I stood up from the bed cranky. It was still early in the morning and Thelma was still fast asleep.I stood up and opened my window, brought out my head and looked out of the window of my room.The morning sky looked so bright and beautiful. It was picture worthy, this should be captured only if I wasn't in a bad mood right now I'd be able to appreciate it more but right now, I am pissed to my core. The fresh air did a little to lighten up my mood though.After a few more moments of staring outside my window into space I needed to get myself busy to get the thoughts of Nate off my head.I had my bath and went to start cleaning.Since it was still early, there was no one awake yet when I got
Nate's POV I have been tossing and turning for a while now, I couldn't even get myself to sleep.I stared at my ceiling for a while without doing anything, I wondered why the house was awfully silent like there was no one inside.Out of frustration, I decided to give Damien a call.I told him to come over to my room. He came not long after and I heard a knock on my door which I told him to enter.I asked him if the house was in order because the house was so silent like no one lived in here. He then answered me “ everyone saying that everyone was around but they may probably be sleeping since they are usually in their rooms if they didn't have any movie or something to keep them all busy together.Oh! Is that so? And he shook his head in confirmation.“Alright then, I had left some files in the car and I wanted you to get it for me. I'll be in the study so when you get it just bring it for me there.” He left after I finished talking. I also got up from the bed and got dressed before
Isabella's POVNate was here, close to me. I can't seem to gather my thoughts and think straight.He was so close to me that all my body parts could feel every inch of him and react to his presence, my body was too aware of his close presence. Oh! I exclaimed inwardly. He is at it again. He snaked his hands to move to my waist like he usually does, sending chills down my spine, and then he pulled me even closer to himself by my waist, closing every inch of distance between us.I felt my body betray me so badly as it shivered at his touch in reaction to his hand movement on my waist. I was so weak that I couldn't even protest, my mouth couldn't form words, my head could not think properly, my mind was all over the place and I was weak in the knees. His hands were what was holding me in place from not falling to the floor.His face was hovering close to mine, barely inches away I could smell his cologne. He smells like sharp musk mixed with spice and with a weird infusion of leather or
Isabella's POV His question got nothing on me as I had made up my mind, so without any thoughts or hesitation, I gave a subtle nod affirming positively to his question.He brought back his head down, his face was close to mine and he whispered “Don't say I didn't ask you girl because now, I won't be able to stop”. His words sent chills down my whole body as I shuddered under his ministrations to me. I could feel the flutters of butterflies in my stomach and the thrill of excitement that overpowered any form of second thoughts that I may be having.No thinking today, no thinking for now, let's just feel and enjoy the moments.After he whispered to me, he gave me a broad smile and stole a sharp and fast kiss from my mouth before withdrawing. I had no time to react. He pulled me up to a sitting position while he gently took off my top leaving me only in my bra. He also took off his shirt before coming back to me.He captured my lips again kissing me senseless, I had buried both of my h
Nate's POVAs I gradually opened my eyes as I had just woken up, I was hit by the bright sun rays of light that shone through my window. Then I also felt the warm snuggle close to my chest. I looked and I saw Isabella in a deep sleep.I looked at her face intently, studying all of her facial features so closely, She was beautiful…so beautiful I concluded.I thought of how yesterday night had played out and a joy of satisfaction hit me deep as a wide smile spread across my face.Last night was wonderful and splendid. I had not been with anyone for the longest of time…not since my ex-girlfriend passed away.My friends had tried to hook me up with different girls a couple of times but I had declined their offer continuously. They even came to a point where they gave up on me. I had not been ready the whole time and I had always turned down their help of wanting to get me a girl. At least that's what they do themselves… hooking up with several girls and not having any form of stability.
