“I've done a number on him,” Isabel muttered as she plopped down onto Rachel's bed.

“Why do you say that?” Rachel asked as she removed her makeup.

“He's now acting like a baby around me, like he's scared what might happen if he does some certain things with me. Ivan used to be so confident; he asked if he could hold me earlier after the panic attack,” she told her, and be nodded.

“I understand that bit; you just need to be there for him. He needs you this time; make sure you don't let anything happen to him. It's the time to be there for him,” she told her, and Isabel nodded.

“I know, I know. I just hope he gets better soon. The panic attack was so deadly to watch; I've never seen him have one. The way he clawed at his throat, Rachel, I don't think I want to see that again. It seemed like he wanted to die, and it drove me insane. I can't bear to see him die, you know,” Isabel told her, and she nodded.

“I understand; don't worry. You guys have each other, and you're strong together, so

    “I'm so stressed out. Let's quickly get today over with,” Isabel moaned as she sat down.“We have only just begun; have you forgotten that we are going to shop for the dresses that we will wear to the ball?” She asked her.“Oh, I totally forgot about that, darn.”“Good that you're here. That's how you'd have forgotten about it. It's important, you know,” Rachel told her.“I'm sorry, I've just been so stressed out, and now you're putting me through a hardcore workout,” she told him.“You need these every morning, you know, so you'll have a clear mind,” Rachel told her.“Clear mind how? I'm so stressed right now, and I can barely think, so please, there's no way I'm having a clear mind with this torture,” she groaned, and Rachel just laughed.“Now come on, it's important to keep fit. Go and take your bath,” Rachel told her, and she nodded.“You don't even have to tell me twice. Can't we just tell the designers to come here?”“Well, my house is too cramped up, right?”“My house?

    After they finally found a dress that they would wear for the ball, they sent all the designers packing, and the house seemed empty. Isabel and Rachel were both immensely tired.“I'm stressed; I need to go to a spa.”“Well, you can add that to the list of what we have to do tomorrow,” Rachel told her, and she nodded.“I really do not like being stressed out. It messes with my brain,” Isabel complained.“I wonder how your husband is coping. To be very honest, you're lazy. You can't even do any hard work for like three hours straight.”“Now, why would I want to do hard work for three hours? I was not made for stress; it's why I have my very loving husband that understands me,” Isabel said, and Rachel laughed.“Well, that's good because if your husband was not Ivan, I wonder what you'd have shown him. The people around you need to be very patient people,” Rachel told her, and she nodded.“That's why I have you, Chelsea, Elijah, and Richard. You all love me so much that it's suffocating,”

    Inside a hospital room a man stood by the side of the bed, his gaze filled with concern as he looked down at the sickly 4 years old boy lying there. His frail form was covered with a soft, floral-patterned blanket, and her gentle breathing echoed throughout the room. Tubes and medical equipment surrounded him, a reminder of the battle he was fighting against his failing health.He brought out his phone and dialed his wife's number, which rang incessantly, but she wasn't picking it up."Pick up lucy."After trying her contact with no avail for a few more minutes, he decided to go home to find any means to gather money for his son's medical bills so treatment could commence, knowing fully well the possibility was zero, he had spent all his life savings just to get the doctors to attend to the boy. He needed to pay at least half of $7000 and where would he get that from?"I'm sorry daddy can't help you." He could not help but remember how his son landed up in the hospital as the memories

    Without wasting any time he went straight to Lucy' house.As he made his way up the winding driveway, his eyes fell on the car parked in the garage. It was a stylish and extravagant vehicle, one that spoke of wealth.It wasn't Lucy's car.Beside it, another Mercedes-Benz was parked. Even though he was confused as to who owned it because he had never seen Jess drive such a car, he didn't think much about it.With a deep breath, he pushed open the front door and stepped inside. The living room was well-furnished, with plush sofas and elegant decor, though it fully belonged to Lucy. It was their home.The angry look on Ivan's face vanished immediately after he entered the living room. The faint sound of moans of pleasure drifting from upstairs made him frown.The realization of what was happening hit him like a ton of bricks. Even though he couldn't hear the voice clearly, he couldn't be more familiar with Lucy's voice, so he knew it was hers."What's going on?" His mind was filled with

    "Why Lucy? Why did you do it? And with my ex-boss? Don't you have any shame? Why did you have to lower yourself to that extent?" Ivan asked with an ashen expression. His skin was pale to begin with and with the distress, it became paler and he almost looked as if he was drained of blood."Ivan, y...you can't blame me...I had no choice, he promised to help me if I accepted him, he....""You pushed yourself to him because he gave you petty promises? What can does things do? It would not last you for eternity." Ivan cut her off in angry. He felt as if something stuffy was pressed against his chest and he coughed, Lucy was startled but did not help him out, she just kept her head lowered without talking. "Did you ever have feelings for me? Do you even care about the child we had together?" Ivan asked again. When he remembered what happened to his son, his eyes reddened and he clenched his fists before glaring at Lucy with despise.He had tried calling her yesterday but she did not pick a

    Ivan stood rooted on the same spot, his body was shaking violently and he looked as if he was going to break down at any moment. At that moment, his emotions were very complicated, he was even in turmoil. Lucy entered the room again, but she was fully dressed. She seemed to be searching for something and did not spare Ivan a single glance. Ivan choked slightly, it was as if something was stuck in his throat, but he knew that he had to tell Lucy about their child. She might change her mind....probably. "Lucy, have you really made up your mind?" He asked instead, holding unto the last string of hope. Lucy finally raised her head to look at him, but contempt and disdain was obvious in her eyes. She looked at him as if he was a joke."Why should I change my mind? I would have left you since all this days, but when I thought of that boy, I could not do it." She said and his eyes reddened."O...our child, h...he died yesterday." He finally said.Lucy was stunned for a while, seeming to b

    Ivan left the company with slumped shoulders, he carried his things on his left arm and walked slowly towards home. He would have hailed a taxi but he does not have enough money, so he could only walk.His mind kept recalling what had happened the previous night like a broken disk, everything kept flashing in his head and his nails dug into his palms but he seemed to not have noticed it.His face was filled with distraught and he kept his head lowered as he walked. It seemed as if all strength has been drawed from his body but his heart was filled with grievance, anger, hatred and self-depriciation. He let out an hollow laughter and blamed himself for everything. His son had died and it was his fault, he could not even keep his wife to himself, he felt that Lucy could only resort to that means because she was helpless. "It was all my fault." He whispered in a low voice. He suddenly did not feel like going home, the house was filled with memories of his son and his wife, when they ha

    The sunlight seeped through the window and highlighted a figure on a bed, his arm and head was bandaged and you could still see the slight blood. His face was ghastly pale and his lips were chapped and dry.All in all, he looked very sick and feeble, if you did not look closely, you would not know that the figure was a 'he' because of his weak physique.The figure grunted and squinted his eyes open with difficulty, he closed them back as he was unable to adapt to the sudden brightness. Soon, he opened them again and this time, clearer.Of course, the figure was Ivan.Ivan furrowed his brows tight and looked around."Where the fuck am I? What happened to me?"He was in a luxurious room that looked like a room in a five star hotel. The room was clean and was painted white, it was very quiet and apart from Ivan's slight breathing sound, there was also a beep sound from the machine beside him. His eyes widened in realisation, he was in a hospital but the room looked different from the ro

    CHAPTER 285: Panic Attack

    “Where the heck have you been, Isabel?” Elijah screamed at her on her way back to the office. Everybody stared at them due to how loud his voice was.“Don't you ever shout at me like that again,” Isabel warned him, and he still looked panicked.“I'm sorry, but everybody has been looking for you.”“Why? I was in Rachel's office; you know that's where I go most of the time.”“Darn it, it's Ivan,” Elijah said as they both got into the elevator.“What's wrong with him?” She asked hurriedly.“He's having those panic attacks again; it's worse this time around. I'm not comfortable leaving him but I was about to go to the announcement room and call your names through the speakers,” Elijah told her, and her own heart dropped.Why was he having these panic attacks? The elevator was not going fast enough; she kept staring at the numbers. She was burning inside, and when the elevator finally opened, she ran out. The people on the floor looked at her, but she didn't care.The man she loved was in

    CHAPTER 284: Office Talks

    The moment Rachel got to the office, she was greeted by different people, and they complimented her dress. She smiled and felt happy; she liked dressing nicely and being complimented by people. It made her feel good. She quickly made her way to her office to start her work for the day. She had a lot of things to do, and because she didn't come to work yesterday, she knew she had to catch up on a lot of things today.She remembered her night with Dante and smiled as she entered her office. Maybe things were finally starting to be okay for her and Dante. Maybe they could do this after all, but she still didn't know what would happen. She knew that his father was so against the idea, so even if her own parents agreed, she wasn't sure his own father would allow it. She didn't know what to do, and she didn't want to think about it, so she resumed work immediately. She needed to catch up on things. They had a meeting tomorrow where she would have to give her briefing, so she wanted everythi

    She opened her eyes but quickly closed them again. She didn't want to leave the bed; it was too comfortable for her. So, she closed her eyes, intending to go back to sleep. She didn't want to think about anything; she just wanted to continue being in the arms of the man she loved. She burrowed into his arms, but it felt empty. She immediately opened her eyes and looked beside her, only to find an empty space."Dante?" she called out, met with eerie silence. She sighed in disappointment, realizing that he was gone. She had expected him to still be there, and perhaps they could have talked some more. But she kept forgetting that he was a busy man and didn't always have time for what she wanted to do. Although she knew that if she told him she wanted him to stay, he would do so without hesitation, without thinking twice. And she loved him for that.She finally admitted to herself that she was in love with him. She thought as she plopped back down on the bed. She should probably have toda

    After her conversation with her mom, she plopped down on the bed, contemplating her life and what to do next. She had achieved a lot at her age, and living in a cramped house was simply her choice. She could have easily afforded a penthouse for herself, given her hard work and the trust fund that would set her up for life. However, she wasn't lazy; she wanted to work hard and establish a trust fund for her future children as well. She had already started planning and saving for the children she would have, and the amount of money involved was not insignificant. She had clear goals that she wanted to achieve. For now, she knew that she simply wanted children. She didn't desire much more, just like her parents. Whether they came as twins or individually, she wanted kids. As for a husband, she couldn't envision herself with anyone other than Dante. She thought about it constantly, and he was the only person she could imagine being with. It was a strange feeling, but she just knew it. You

It was only supposed to be a year actually. She was assigned to Andre, your brother's chambers. You know the typical boss falls for the maid, whatever. That was exactly what happened, but Serena didn't like him then. She gave him a hard time and she really messed with your brother's mind. He almost went crazy.

    CHAPTER 280: Conversation

    It was the weekend again and Ivan and Isabel had to sleep in the same bed in the same house, their children were growing rapidly and their wits were also growing with them, those children were smart and they got it from their father probably. Isabel wasn't a nerd so she wasn't exactly smart all the way, but their father was everything so of course, they were smart.They just finished dinner now and Ivan and Isabel just tucked their children to sleep after singing for them. It felt nice to do all these once again, Ivan liked it and Isabel didn't want it to end actually. That was how he wanted things to continue to go, smooth.They were finally back in their room and they both laid down, they have never cuddled after everything that happened then.“Let's talk,” Isabel told him and he pulled his perfect eyebrows together.“About what?” He asked.“About us.”“Okay….” He said carefully not knowing when this will end, he had no idea what she wanted to talk about and it drove him crazy.
