Chapter 140: All Mine

He wanted so much to destroy his face that he would not dare to look at Isabella twice. But he had to keep his anger in check because Isabella's parents were there. He thought to himself, “I have to calm down. I don't want to do anything that will make Isabella hate me after she regains her memory.

My punching him or acting aggressively now will only reveal the true side of me to Isabella's parents, and they must use it against me later and not allow me to marry their daughter. I can't afford to do that. I have to get married to Isabella, not because I still love her, but because I want to show her I'm just getting married to her to make her life a living hell.

I have to show her that nobody messes with me, and no girl dares to cheat on me. Even though I'm not sure of the fact that she and James were together, I still have to teach her a lesson. I'm going to get married to her and show her what stuff I'm really made of.

She thinks I am just a random guy who she can cheat on with other guys and then dump later. No, I'll show her who Alex really is. I'm going to make her life a living hell that she would beg me to just kill her instead of the pain she will endure living with me.

I can't miss that kind of opportunity. Me. Alex can't lose Isabella. Just not yet. I have to show her first before even letting her go, and that is even if I will let her go. She will endure the pain I'm going to give her for the rest of her life.”

Alex thought to himself and just withdrew. He stepped back from where he was standing in front of James and moved away from him completely. He just stood at a corner, fury burning inside him, but he didn't want to say anything so that Isabella's parents wouldn't see him as someone aggressive and disrespectful, which could affect his relationship with their daughter in the future.

Meanwhile, Trisha dragged Rachel out of the waiting room in silence without anyone noticing as Isabella's parents looked at James and gave him their approval to go check on Isabella if that was what he really came there for.

James thanked them and immediately went into Isabella's room. He found her lying there unconscious and he went through the same pain he had gone through before. His heart tightened in pain as he saw Isabella lying there unconscious. Tears started drifting slowly from his eyes as he looked at Isabella's beautiful face.

How he just wished she would wake up, at least open her eyes and just look at him and call out his name when he sat beside her.

Meanwhile, Trisha had already dragged Rachel to a corner far from where Isabella's parents and Alex were standing earlier, and she started confronting Rachel about why she had done what she did that day.

“Why did you have to bring James here? Why do you always have to cause trouble wherever you go? You betrayed Isabella first and now you are doing this to her. You are trying to destroy her relationship with Alex. Why do you always have to be jealous of Isabella?” Trisha shouted at Rachel.

“Why?”

Rachel just looked at her and thought to herself, “You don't even know what's going on between the both of them. You are just naive, Trisha.” But she didn’t say it out loud as Trisha continued.

“Why? Why did you have to bring James into the picture? At least you would have, even if you wanted James to see her, you could have brought him in secretly. Why do you have to bring him in front of Alex? You know how much James loves Isabella and how much he can't restrain himself if he sees Isabella in trouble or in any kind of pain. Why do you have to tell James about any of this?”

She said this to Rachel as she raised her hand and slapped Rachel across the face. The second time Rachel held her cheeks in shock and looked at Trisha stunned.

“Why did you just slap me?” she said to Trisha, but Trisha just scoffed and replied, “You deserved it. You betrayed Isabella's first and now you are trying to destroy her relationship. Why? What's your plan? What do you really want? Just leave Isabella alone. Even while she's still in the hospital laying there unconscious, you are still trying to cause more trouble for her.”

Trisha said to Rachel angrily.

“You don't even know what's going on between your friend and her boyfriend. You don't know what Alex is doing to her. Why would you think that I came here just to cause trouble? I'm only trying to help Isabella out here, and all you do is just shout at me and you even slapped me across the face. Who do you think you are? I'm trying to help Isabella. Yes, I betrayed her first but that was just a mistake and I already asked for forgiveness. I'm just trying to help Isabella out here.”

Rachel said to Trisha frustratingly, but Trisha wouldn't buy any of it.

“Just shut up. You aren't helping Isabella, you're just trying to cause trouble for her in a relationship and I can see what you're doing clearly. I know why you brought him. See, you just want to destroy her.”

Trisha said to her. She didn't even believe anything Rachel was saying.

“Just shut up already, Trisha. I'm just trying to help Isabella.”

Trisha got angrier and wanted to slap Rachel the third time before Rachel held her hand in frustration.

“Don’t you even dare do that. You slapped me twice already and I won’t take you slapping me again. Do you hear me? I’m only trying to help Isabella. Can't you just open your eyes and see what's going on between Isabella and Alex? Can't you open your eyes and see what Alex is doing to Isabella?”

Rachel blurted out angrily.
