Chapter 133 New Dynamic
Hi guys!
So the anonymous caller would be referred to as Catalyst!
Remember! He's also Luciano's faceless enemy!
~~
"Urghhh!", Isabella groaned for the hundredth time as she checked her phone.
'Why did I even reply to him?!', Isanella asked herself.
"How long does it take to reply to a message?!", Isabella asked her daughter who didn't pay her any attention.
Apparently, the TV show was more interesting.
She hadn't actually shut him out, but he had been really good with his actions since she came back to the mansion.
She didn't know what was blooming, but she kind of liked it.
Back at the hall, the first dinner was coming to an end with the majority of the people there getting out of their chairs.
However, something was weird, something that should have happened.
It was too peaceful, and it started to feel wei...
Ahh!!
There it was!
A fight had broken out.
"They lack standards!", Mei Ling commented as Luciano and Andreas exchanged looks.
'You're one to talk!
Obviously clinging to a man who is very uninterested', Andreas thought.
"Yikes!
That might leave a mark!", she said calmly as she watched the show.
The lady donned in a velvet dress slapped the man begging her across the face
"I think we should take our leave!", Luciano said to Andreas.
He'd rather be on the phone with his daughter than wonder what was going on.
Feeling his absence beside her, Mei Ling turned to see his taut back walking out of the hall alongside his assistant Andreas.
A sinister smile appeared on her face as she sent a message as directed by Catalyst.
She couldn't wait to see the look on his face as it all went down.
\~~~
"Come in!", Isabella said as she heard a knock on her door.
"Hi Isabella!
It's just me!", amia said as she entered and closed the door.
"Is there any problem?!", Isabella asked as she dressed her daughter.
She had just taken her evening bath.
"No!
No! There isn't a problem!
It's just that...!", Mia started, genuinely wondering how she should place the question.
"What then?!", Isablla enquired.
"Since you came back
You've been in your room!
We barely talk like old times!
I was just wondering what was going on!", Mia asked as she took a seat by the edge of the bed.
"Ohhh!", Isabella said, like she hadn't been intentionally keeping to herself.
"Don't get me wrong...!", Mia started but was interrupted by Isabella.
"It's just that I don't want people to judge me!", Isabella answered.
"What does that mean?
We would never...!"
"We?!", Isabella asked confused, it was just Mia in the room.
"Oh I mean me and Madam Paula!", Mia answered.
"Oh!
Well!
I went to my own parents house and they thought I seduced The Don!
I can tell by the look on the men's faces...
They all think I wanted his love and attention
But that isn't the case!", Isabella spoke.
It was something that had been weighing on her for the longest, however, she had no idea she was telling it all to the wrong person.
"It's totally fine Isabella, you don't need to explain yourself to me!
We're just glad you're back.
You know! We were really worried when we couldn't find you!", Mia admitted truthfully.
"Well!
I just couldn't take it anymore, so I ran away!
I should have known he was going to find me no matter what!", Isabella said, sighing.
"So what's up with this new dynamic?!", Mia asked.
"What dynamic?!", Isabella asked.
"You know! Where he hugs you and all that?!", Mia asked in detail.
"I don't ...
I don't know what you're talking about!", Isabella said as she blushed.
She finally realized what Mia was talking about.
"Hmmm!
We both know you know!", Mia pushed.
"It's just...
He claims he loves me!
But I don't know!
He always contradicts his actions!", Isabella spilled.
"Are you falling for it?!", Mia asked, trying to get the full gist for later.
"I...
I don't know!", Isabella finally answered, her face quickly becoming pink.
"Okay fine!
I won't push!
They're doing a recap of our favorite show from before!
Wanna watch?!", Mia asked.
"Oh, on that channel that suddenly disappeared?!", Isabella asked, excited.
"Yupp!
How about Sofia!?", Mia turned to see the baby who was already half asleep.
"That won't be a problem!
I'll hold her in my arms while we watch!", Isabella said.
"Fine then! I'll be waiting in the living room with Madam Paula!", Mia said.
"Alright!
I'll take a shower and join you shortly!", Isabella said.
~~
The Boat cruise was okay, but he wanted Isabella.
The shooting range was exhilarating , but he couldn't wipe the mental image of how she slept peacefully from his mind.
The Don was really eager to go back home.
That he did, immediately after the banquet week was over.
Completely unaware of all the chaos that was about to ensue.

Honestly wasn't feeling the chapter
Reason for being quite short
