If Isabella had fallen asleep then, maybe she would have been alright by the time she got home but that wasn't the case.

She couldn't even get mad at Carl, after all she wasn't his visitor but his sister's. There was no way she could go pull him out from wherever he was hiding. Besides, they were not close enough for her to do that.

Lunch passed by with both Kim and Bella lost in their thoughts, distracted by matters of the heart.

Not long after, evening snuck up on them. They both weren't aware until Bella's phone rang.

Isabella's eyes widened when she saw the caller. She realized he must have found out her whereabouts.

Calming her panicky heart, she answered the phone.

"I specifically told you to stay away from him, didn't I?" That was the first question he threw at her.

"Brother…" She tried making excuses but there were none.

He chided lightly, "You're as stubborn as always Bell, return home, now."

His command left no room for discussion.

"I can't get a taxi from this place easily." She revealed.

"Ben will be there shortly." As soon as he was done talking, he hung up.

"I have to go," She said to Kim who nodded absentmindedly.

Realizing what Bella said, she paused, "So soon? We were meant to return to school together."

"Sorry, my brother had to spoil our plan. Next time, I guess." She replied almost sobbing.

She repeated, "Next time, I guess."

Bella jogged upstairs to collect her bag before heading back down.

As they were in the Upper Province, it didn't take long for Ben to arrive. Thereby dumping her expectations in the garbage.

Just like that, her exciting weekend turned horrible and she had no one to blame.

Dinner passed by and Carl was still locked up in the basement, making certain amendments and arrangements for his company.

At first, he only wanted something that he could live comfortably by. Only after experiencing being bullied and forced to work for others did he understand he had to grow powerful no matter the cost. At least to be able to protect what he holds dear.

When he came out for dinner he found out that Chamberlain had asked his sister to return home, much to his relief.

He did not even bother to ask if Chamberlain was already aware that he moved or how he found out.

It did not matter.

He quietly had dinner before heading to bed, leaving Kim to stare at his back until he disappeared from view completely.



Chamberlain's house,

"How wonderful to know you've become so disobedient as to disregard my words."

Coincidentally, Bella returned at the same time as him.

"I'm guessing you want to return to the capital," he threatened.

Isabella was so frightened she began sweating.

If there was anyone she feared, it had to be her father. So why then would she want to go back to their home in the capital.


She simply lowered her head.

"I'm suppose you were planning to stay the night there again."

"You knew?" She asked with mouth agape.

He frowned, "Why wouldn't I?"

"If father finds out, it won't end well. Don't invite trouble for him." He concluded.

Who knew he would be trying to protect that ungrateful shrew in the end.

"May be things might not be as bad as I imagined," he thought.

May be if Isabella loved Carl, may be their father wouldn't carry out his plans to the extreme.

Those were just his thoughts anyway, he didn't know his father's thoughts and there was no way he could stop his father from making use of Carl.

"Yes brother," with slumped shoulders, Bella dragged her feet to her room.

Chamberlain completely ignored her desolate state. If he continued to give in to her, they might end up in more trouble.

Without much thought, he strode to his room.

Once he pushed the door open, what befell his sight was his wife, unclad.

He was so startled that he froze for a few seconds before shutting the door with a bang.

His face red and his breathing uneven, one would think he was choking on something.

Choking on the sight of his wife's naked body.

He stood with his back against the door. It was unclear what exactly his thoughts were.

The certainty was that he was embarrassed to have seen her that way.

While he was still trying to make sense of things, the door was opened from the inside, making him fall into the room.

Chamberlain who always appeared elegant and fine was laying on the floor. His form, anything short of elegance.

"I'm sorry, I didn't think you were leaning against the door," she apologized, helping him get up.

He was so startled by her touch he jumped away, avoiding her totally.

Lena was caught off guard.

She felt but embarrassed and disappointed.

Her husband was in fact far from her even if they were so close together.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

Although, it wasn't intentional, she was hoping he would see her that way too. May be that way they could get closer but she was wrong.

Now he was avoiding her touch.

"Next time, lock the door when you're…"

He did not know why he couldn't even say the word.

He was still so embarrassed about seeing her and the awkward silence wasn't helping either.

Clearing his throat, he walked into the room. Acting like nothing was wrong.

"Wait."
