Chapter 54Immediately Isabelle's parents heard about the whole thing they were alarmed and frightened. They no longer wanted Sebastien and Isabelle to remain in the mansion! Adeline arrived at the biltwave mansion a few minutes after Isabelle told her about the incident. That was her only daughter and she doesn't want to put her life at risk.She tried convincing Isabelle to leave the biltwave mansion since there are people that are obviously not happy that they are in possession of the property and life is still more important than any form of property possession. “Isabelle, you are my daughter and I would not want anything bad to happen to you. If this mansion is going to be a pathway for people to harm you. Then I do not want that” Adeline was insisting on that. Isabelle tried convincing her mother that she will be fine, “mum. Don't worry, the security guards are highly efficient. They wouldn't let anyone in again” Adelinde shook her head stubbornly, “if they could allow a bun
Chapter 55Master Wilson trashed about in his sleep before he woke up with a start! 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. All I'm saying is —” the nurse tried explaining. She was very scared at t
Chapter 56Few days later, Sebastian and Isabelle had already furnished their house to an extent where they could reside in it and they also doubled their security. Because of what happened with the thugs the other day, Sebastien made sure he got more guards that would watch over his wife.They were just typing up the last piece of thing they needed to do when Isabelle's phone rang. 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?
Chapter 57Isabelle turned to look at Sebastien to confirm if he was also hearing the same thing she was but he had a neutral expression on his face. 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
Chapter 58The next morning was a Monday morning and Isabelle began to prepare for her first day as the head of the departments in the Wilson's family company. She was quite nervous because ever since she was made to leave the company, she had never set foot there and this would be the first time going there in a while. So she didn't know what to expect and that made her really nervous.Sebastien could sense her nervousness while they were having breakfast so he asked, “are you alright, princess?” he could see she was nervous but he wanted her to say so by herself.Isabelle snapped out of her thoughts and said, “i-i’m fine” she said then took a spoonful of her breakfast.Sebastien raised his brows, “are you sure you are fine? 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. I notice every single little deta
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
Chapter 60Isabelle left the meeting room and went to occupy her new office which was on the last floor. 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
Chapter 61Violet locates her new office, two floors below her previous office and she felt so sad because the demotion was evident even in the size of the office and the equipment in the office. Master Wilson had demoted her to the extent that she was even in a way lower position than most people in the company.She was offered this position because that was the only free space left in the company and she did not really have a choice. Getting a new job would not be easy so she just had to make do with this one.If she had a choice, she would not have accepted the offer. As she arranged her office documents on the black wooden desk in front of the office chair, she had a flashback to when Isabelle walked into her former office. She knew Master Wilson's grandchild was the one that requested for this position. She couldn't help but feel bitter because if Isabelle had not come back, she wouldn't have lost her position in the company. Her heart filled with hatred for Isabelle and she k
