Chapter 52

The next morning Sebastian told Isabelle that he has something urgent to do and asked her to oversee the arrangement of the furniture since they were going to be delivered today by brown oak company. Isabelle wondered what Sebastian wanted to do that he couldn't come and see the furniture placements in the mansion.

However she just decided to go since she had no other plans for today. She got to the biltwave mansion very early that day and decided to go to the garden at the back of the huge mansion to relax and read a novel.

She read for a while and kept on wondering why the furniture hadn't arrived yet and then she decided to take a little nap. When she woke up late, she found her arms were bound together at the wrist with a strong rope and a blindfold was wrapped around her eyes so she couldn't see.

Isabelle pulled against the ropes but that only made them tighter, then she began shouting for help, “hello! Help me! Anybody!”

She yelped when she felt a kick on her ankle.

He stared around the room frantically, his heart thumping in his chest.He felt a hand on his leg and then looked up, then he saw the person stretched out his lenses and he took them and wore them.Then his vision became clearer and he could see the nurse that was hired to take care of him standing by his bedside. “What happened?! Who was the person that was inside this room?!” master Wilson asked frantically.“I do not understand what you are saying sir. Nobody came into this room. I have been standing by the doorway since” The nurse tried explaining as she could sense the panic in master Wilson's eyes.“What do you mean by nobody came in here?! Does that mean I am out of my senses?! Is that what you are trying to insinuate?!” master Wilson said, his voice raising a notch higher.“No, sir. Let me explain what I meant by that.

She felt sad when she saw the caller ID. It was Tony Wilson that was calling. She contemplated not picking it but at the second ring she just picked it. She remained silent and waited for him to talk.“Grandfather said you should come to the family house now. He needs to have an important meeting with you” Tony said, curtly and with no emotion in his voice.Isabelle didn't say anything, the call just ended abruptly. When the call ended, she sighed and turned back to continue what she was doing. Sebastien who was across the room could sense her apprehension and walked closer to her, “What is the problem?

Isabelle turned to look at Master Wilson and said, “grandfather, I'm sorry to say this but I hope you aren't pulling my legs. Do you really mean what you are saying?Are you really willing to offer me this? And at what cost if I may ask”Master Wilson smiled to himself, of course, she was a Wilson and she would find it hard to believe that she got such a great offer without the person offering it wanting something in return.“Nothing. At no cost Isabelle. Just consider this an offer from your grandfather to you” Master Wilson said with a cunning smile on his face.Isabelle studied his expression for any sign that he was joking or pulling her legs but she couldn't see any. Obviously, it would be hard to notice anything seeing that master Wilson is a great actor. “So, Are you in or not?” Master Wilson asked, hoping she would accept becau

Or do you want me to accompany you to your grandfather's company today”Isabelle let out a small gasp then a breathy laugh, “I am fine Sebastien, what makes you think otherwise?” “You seem to have forgotten how much I know you.

    Chapter 59Isabelle followed behind master Wilson and they walked into the spacious meeting room where a long table was placed in the center with office chairs surrounding it side by side. Master Wilson walked further into the room and sat at the head of the table. Isabelle just stood in the corner of the room until she was gestured to come over by master Wilson.So she walked and stood just right beside where he sat. Master Wilson rang a bell beside him to draw the people's attention towards himself and their chatters died down as soon as they saw the seriousness in master wilson’s face.They knew when it was time for business, he shouldn't be messed with. “Silence. The meeting will commence now” master Wilson stretched further.“As you all should know by now or at least most of you with the exemption of the new workers, this is my beloved granddaughter Isabelle. She has been brought back to this company because she will be occupying or playing an important role as from today.” Mas

All through the way to the last floor, she was hoping she would not bump into Violet because she was not ready to see her at that point. Most importantly she hoped she won't find violet in the office as the new office she was going to occupy was formerly occupied by violet. When she got to the front of the office door she saw it was left slightly open and then she pushed the door wider so she could have a view of the interior.She was surprised at the scene that met her. Violet sat on a couch in the office with bloodshot eyes and a red puffy face. She looked like she had just sobbed the living daylights out of herself. Isabelle did not know how to console her without looking like a bad person. But she decided to try. Just as she took a step towards her, Violet stood up, grabbed her things and walked out of the office without even sparing Isabelle a glance.If Isabelle felt bad b

She was extremely terrified. “Sebastien, this is worse than I thought. There are gangsters causing issues at the company. The entrance is blocked and everything has come to a halt. We are in dire need of help” Adeline rambled as soon as Sebastien picked up the call. “Calm down,” Sebastien said, “I would be there shortly. In the meantime, stay safe” Sebastien said, then the call ended after he assured Adeline that everything would be fine. Sebastien knew there was nothing he could do from home and he needed to see for himself what was really going on. So, he prepared to head over to the hunt’s resource company.

Adeline picked up her phone and dialed Sebastien’s number, “have you seen what is on the news?” She asked immediately Sebastien picked up the call. “What is wrong?” Sebastien asked, noticing the worry in her voice. He had been busy the entire morning so he hadn’t even gone through social media or turned on the television. “There is a malicious article against the Hunt’s resource company” Adeline exclaimed. “Calm down,” Sebastien said over the phone to stop Adeline from panicking a whole lot. “I would check the news now and I would s

In fact, she boasted about the company whenever she was in the midst of her friends.Adeline had earlier asked Sebastien if there was any form of promotion or advertisement that he was providing the resource company with but Sebastien told her that there wasn’t any. The total profit made by the company that month was ten million dollars which was double of what they made the previous month. **************Romero Pierson, motivated by the sum of money promised to him by Tony Wilson, gathered a few of his subordinates and began to issue orders to them. “Welcome everyone, I believe you are all aware of the hunt’s resource company and how in the last two months they have managed to monopoliz

Any problem with that?” “Not at all. Just that she hasn’t stopped ringing it in my ears that she is the head of such a fast rising company and I’m sure her friends are also suffering the same thing” Isabelle said.Sebastien chuckled, “well, that is great news then.” Isabelle nodded in agreement with Sebastien, “yeah, I haven’t seen her this happy in a while. It seems like this is something she always wanted” Isabelle said. Truly, after Isabelle’s father travelled out of the country. There was a terrible decline in Adeline’s business and that led to it eventually folding up because she was running at a loss. “I’m glad to have been able to offer that to her,” Sebastien said calmly. “Thank you so much!” Isabelle said with a huge grin planted on her face. “But, you still didn’t tell me how you were able to acquire the

Sebastien tried to console Isabelle all through the journey back to their mansion because he knew Isabelle was feeling really terrible about the whole thing which was understandable.

Isabelle just kept on checking out of instinct because she still found it surreal that they had managed to catch Miranda on live camera. “Okay, let me see what you have managed to gather,” Master Wilson said, after they explained to him that they had gotten concrete evidence. Miranda stood at the top of the stairs, her heart racing within her chest as she eavesdropped on the conversation Isabelle and Sebastien were having with master Wilson.Miranda watched as Isabelle brought out a small shiny substance and she immediately knew that it was her ring!She couldn’t believe that she was so careless that she didn’t think of the fact that they

    Chapter 134: heated moment

    Chapter 134Isabelle was so disturbed at work the next day because she had gotten a text from Violet very early that morning. Violet had complained about Miranda sending her a message, requesting for her assistance. Violet said Miranda didn’t mention the form of assistance she needed, but she added a threatening message warning Violet that she would face severe consequences if she refused the offer. Or tries to avoid her further. At the time Violet was mentioning this to Isabelle, she hadn’t replied to Miranda’s message and Isabelle wasn’t sure if she would have replied now. Isabelle placed a finger on the bridge of her nose as she drew in a deep breath. Isabelle was instantly filled with guilt as she realised that Violet is going through all these now because of her involvement. Maybe if she hadn’t accepted to become the head of department, Violet wouldn’t have been dragged into all this mess. It was Friday, and the last day of the week. So, Isabelle made up her mind to visit mas
