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
Chapter 79Days later, Master Wilson was worried because he hadn't heard from Miranda in the last three days and he wondered where she was.He had searched all over, checked her previous house and even reached out to Roland but Miranda's location was still unknown to him.This was not the first time Miranda was leaving without notice so master Wilson knew she was going to be back anytime soon but that didn't ease his worry in any way. “Don't worry. Miranda would be back soon. You know how stubborn she is” Tony Wilson assured master Wilson when he noticed the look of worry etched on his face. Master Wilson sighed and placed his palm on his forehead, he was beginning to get a headache from worrying too much. Just then they heard the door open and they turned to see Adeline, master Wilson's daughter-in-law and Isabelle's mother walk in with a livid look on her face.Master Wilson was alarmed, “To what do I owe this pleasant visit?” Master Wilson asked with a grin on his face.“Where
