Chapter 70

Isabelle closed from work that day and on the way down the stairs she saw Violet and they greeted each other. Violet and Isabelle basically greeted each other everyday so Isabelle just assumed they were I'm good terms now.

It was towards evening when she left the office because it was the weekend and they normally closed early on weekends so she went outside the office and booked a cab and in no time the cab arrived and it was a thirty minutes drive before she arrived at her mansion.

She had been so thirsty earlier so immediately she entered the house she walked to the fridge and brought out a cold bottle of water and then was about making her way upstairs to meet her husband, sebastien when her phone rang and she stared at the caller ID and it was her mother she was so delighted to get a call from her mother given that it had been a while since they last spoke.

“Hi mum!” She said enthusiastically as she picked the call, then sat down on the couch forgetting her previous m

    Chapter 71Miranda brought out a red form fitting, high cut legs, padded top and low cut back one piece swimsuit and tossed it at Violet. “That is the swimsuit I expect you to be on. I bought it because it looks extremely seductive and it is perfect for the plan we are about go carry out” Violet picked the small piece of outfit and took a look at it, it wasn't something she would have worn on a normal day. Infact she wasn't comfortable exposing her body in such a manner. She scrutinized the swimsuit. Miranda, noticing her reaction said, “I could not find this particular swimsuit design in purple so I had to make do with what I could get” Miranda thought her reaction to the swimsuit was because of the color it was in.Violet forced a smile on her face, “it's fine. It's okay, don't bother about the color” “Alright. if you say so” Miranda said with a shrug then proceeded to read the plans for the night again.Violet groaned internally. This was equivalent to the fifth time Miranda is

    Chapter 72Earlier,Miranda had just left after once again reciting the instructions to Violet's hearing one last time. Violet nodded and assured Miranda that she would do as she was instructed. Miranda was already convinced so she didn't feel the need to ask Violet a second time if she would carry out the tasks successfully. Unknown to Miranda, Violet had already earlier decided within herself that she doesn't see Isabelle as a bad person and that it would be really unfair for her to take revenge on somebody that even apologized to her and also she saw a journal on Miranda's phone earlier where she wrote about her hatred for Isabelle.Violet was shocked when she came across that but it helped her conclude that Miranda is indeed the bad person here and she finally came to the conclusion that she won't do as Miranda had instructed but rather use the whole thing to expose Miranda's evil actsSo, she didn't drug Sebastian. She managed to run into Sebastian that evening and explained th

    Chapter 73Isabelle wakes up to her fingers feeling numb. She tries to stretch her arms when she discovers that she had been bound by a rope tied firmly at her wrist, reducing blood flow to her fingers, hence causing the numb feeling.She tries to take in her environment but when she opens her eyes she is hit by a strong headache that causes her to wince and squint from the pain. She was worried, ‘where am I?’ she thought to herself. The last thing she could remember was Sebastien cheating on her and her ending up in Miranda's car. She sat up and discovered she was in a bedroom. A man's bedroom to be precise, because the scent of masculine cologne was so strong.‘How did I end up here?’ Isabelle contemplated shouting for help but she knew the little energy she had left would not sustain her if she did that. She pulled against the rope again but it only got tighter. The next moment, a door opened and a man walked in. Isabelle looked at the man’s appearance, his arm was bandaged and

    chapter 74Earlier,Sebastien was furious as he paced the whole length of his sitting room. His wife had been missing since last night and she was not picking her calls. The whole thing that happened that night was in a bid to expose Miranda's evil acts. Violet had approached him earlier and told him the entire plan Miranda had to ruin his marriage and they had agreed that they would carry out the plan, of course without him being drugged and when Miranda enters the room, they would expose her.But the plan went wrong the moment Isabelle entered and ran away immediately with Miranda chasing after her. Sebastien tried to trace her phone that night but he was unable to because for some reason his phone was no longer connected to hers and he felt someone was responsible for that. Someone disconnected it.He dialed Isabelle's number and sighed in relief when the call was accepted, “hello baby! Where are—” “Surprise, surprise” came a masculine voice from the other side of the line.“Who

    Chapter 75Isabelle was breathing heavily as Sebastien made her sit on the bed. She had been so scared, she thought she was going to end up being sexually assaulted and then killed. She was so happy for Sebastian's timely intervention. But that didn't mean she wasn't still pissed at him.“It's okay. I am here now, you are safe.” Sebastian said, trying his best to make her calm.Isabelle just nodded. Then they heard groans coming from the bathroom and Sebastien turned his head in the direction of the bathroom. “hold on. Give me a moment” he told Isabelle then he stood up from the bed and walked into the bathroom.Charles was still on the floor groaning in pain, “How the hell did you manage to find me?” he questioned Sebastien, he thought Miranda canceled the connection between Sebastien and Isabelle's phone.“You seem to underestimate me.” Sebastien said, his tone low and scary. Charles grabbed the bathroom sink in an attempt to stand up on his feet but Sebastien kicked his ankle hard

    Chapter 76 Isabelle thrashed about in her sleep, “help me, help me, help me….” She muttered continuously. Sebastien who was seated beside the bed was alarmed when he heard her voice and saw her thrashing about, he presumed she was having a nightmare and rushed to her side.“It's okay. I'm here, I'm here” he said softly caressing her shoulder. Isabelle's eyes fluttered open and she sat up on the bed, she sat up on the bed and stretched.As she stared at Sebastien who was sitting beside her she recalled the event of the previous day. “Hey. How are you?” Sebastien asked her, taking his time to study her countenance.Isabelle didn't reply to him.“Are you hungry? Should I get you something to eat?” He tried again but still didn't get any response.Isabelle just stared at him.“Thank you for saving me” she finally said after a while. “You don't have you thank me. I am your husband and it's my duty to make sure you are safe at all times” Sebastien assured her.Isabelle gazed downwards

    Chapter 77Miranda was worried as the paced round the room, she had just gotten a call from Charles that Sebastien found his location and beat him up. Charles also threatened to expose Miranda's acts to the general public.Miranda was worried because the public will believe Charles's words and that will taint the image of her and the Wilson's family too. She began thinking of what to do because she couldn't imagine the disgrace she would face if news got out about her deeds.Miranda shook her head in regret as she thought about how Violet turned her back against her at the last moment. She never expected it but she can't deny that she saw the warning signs, because she did. From the way Violet was acting hesitant, she should have suspected something like this could happen. She threw a flower vase against the wall in annoyance and watched as the shards scattered all over the floor. All her efforts went to waste as Isabelle was not harmed! She blamed Charles for his foolishness and fo

    Chapter 78“Oh my God! Are you okay?!” Isabelle's mother who showed up at their house later that day examined her daughter's face.Isabelle had already narrated the entire events that happened the previous day and Adeline was moved to tell her daughter, ‘I told you so’ when she got to the part where Miranda was revealed to be a betrayer.“Mum, I'm fine. Like I said, Sebastien arrived just right in time” Isabelle assured her mother. Isabelle agreed with her mother that she should have listened to her words and maybe if she had then all these would have been avoided. Adeline turned to look at Sebastien, “ Thank you so much for putting extra efforts into my daughter's security” Adeline genuinely appreciates Sebastien for his efforts and care towards her daughter. “It's my duty” Sebastien said, brushing off the apology. “I can't believe that is the monster that I almost made my son in law” Adeline shook her head, realizing she had just avoided making a terrible mistake due to her daugh

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. The chants from the protesters intensified and it looked like it would be a difficult mission calming them. *******************Isabelle had just finished a boardroom meeting with the project team and was on h

    Chapter 141The next day, Adeline was filled with worry when she saw the headline on the news channel that morning. It was reported that there was a building collapse and the materials used in the construction of the building was obtained from the hunt’s resource company. Her worry intensified when she saw the reaction of the masses to the news. People believed the accusations and Adeline found it surprising. Who could have really started this thing? 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

    Chapter 140Adeline was astonished when she saw the amount of profit the Hunt’s resource company had made that month. It was far beyond her expectation since the company was just starting out. Adeline was so pleased by the company’s growth and she was very proud that the company was headed by her. 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

    Chapter 139“You made my mother the head of the Hunt’s resources company?!” Isabelle asked with widened eyes. Sebastien nodded while typing on his laptop, “of course. 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

    Chapter 138Three weeks later, There wasn’t any drama for a while. Isabelle decided to take a break from the entire situation as Miranda was not posing any current threat at the moment. Violet resumed her duties normally, gradually overcoming the fear of Miranda previously instilled in her. Miranda on the other hand was glad when three weeks passed without her hearing of any attempt from Isabelle. Miranda felt so pleased with herself at the fact that she had managed to get away with what she did, unscathed. Isabelle majorly decided to take a break from the entire issue because she wouldn’t want to lose her job because of Miranda or make master Wilson angry. **********************Tony Wilson’s heart skipped a beat when his phone rang for the fifth time within two minutes, he checked the caller Id and saw that it was a call from the company he took a loan from earlier.

Isabelle couldn’t come up with any possible explanation as to why the file became corrupted. It all didn’t make sense to her. And to add to all that, Isabelle knew master Wilson’s view of her had changed drastically. 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 kept on trying to retrieve the video but she wasn’t still able to get it. She began doubting if master Wilson would give her a second chance to prove that Miranda was just pretending. ******************Master Wilson walked into Miranda’s bedroom later that evening. Miranda upon sighting him appeared to be morose. “Sorry about what happened earlier” master Wilson thought it right to just apologise on behalf of Isabelle for their baseless accusations. “I’m

They were sure that with the evidence they had now, master Wilson wouldn’t be able to come up with any excuses for Miranda.Isabelle made sure to cross check that the videos were still intact despite being sure that she had saved the videos on the computer. 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 135“Until you come with proper evidence, I do not believe all that you have spoken of” master Wilson said with a tone of finality after they had spent almost thirty minutes explaining the past occurrences they have had with Miranda.“But, grandfather! Why do you even have so much trust in her?” Isabelle questioned agitatedly.“We even have evi—“ Isabelle was trying to say when Sebastien cut her off. “We will be back when we have enough evidence and by then, I believe you wouldn’t have any more reasons to doubt us” Sebastien said, they had initially come with the intent of showing master Wilson the little evidences that they had, but a Sebastien thought it would be better to keep the evidence away from master Wilson till it was solid enough that they won’t be able to come up with an excuse when it is finally revealed.Isabelle fixed Sebastien with a questioning gaze, wondering what the sudden change of mind was all about.

    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
