The Wall Of Fame

The Wall Of Fame
-Isabella's Pov-

"I am in danger ? You gotta be kidding me Julien," I spoke trying to sound as confident as possible, but I felt my insides shutter a little as I kept looking at my sides to spot any immediate danger, if present.

He told that he received a voice note from my number which says that I am in danger but it wasn't sent by me. I had my cell phone right in front of my eyes, no one could have possibly taken it and messed with it.

But Julien doesn't needs to know of all these informations, at least not now. Julien sounded a lot panicked, almost a little hint of nervousness in my voice and he will do anything to be beside me.

And that's what I need to avoid.

Him coming here would spoil all of our plans, all his dreams and I cannot risk that for this.

Which is why I closed my eyes and calmed myself down before answering him, this time in a more settled voice.

"Julien calm down, maybe someone is just pulling off a prank on you knowing how stressted you are ?" I tried telling him in a convincing tone. I did get a feeble agreeing sound from him in return after which I put down the call not before telling him some more convincing words.

I felt myself lay back on my chair as I lightly caressed my tummy, I was surely a little more scared and attentive after hearing him.

Right now it was not just about me but also our baby, whom I need to protect at any cost. Julien trusted me to keep our baby safe and I will do it.

But I couldn't just rest. After Julien's gone from the Company I had to be demoted to the position where I should have been if I did not marry my handsome Devil. That makes me think how different life would have been then. I would be just another employee in the office while Julien probably would be married to any girl his father would choose.

It was not bad, I did enjoy this job too but I just missed Julien here. The ambience today was so different, while Julien's presence ensured complete discipline among the staff right now it was a mess. No one feared any deadline nor did care of the Company's well being just like Jaimin. No one simply had the motivation to work, everyone seemed detached and carefree.

When Julien was here everyone had a goal to meet, were on their toes to meet with Julien's expectations to get noticed by him and the higher officials.

From what I have understood, Jaimin never really loved the Company he just wanted it to overtake Julien and to malice his name, while Sara just cared about the money irrespective of the source. They just wanted the status and the money needed to be called the 'Fernando's.'

I found myself thinking too hard about this making a ache stir up at the back of my head. Other times I would just work out to bring myself a coffee but now I need to cut down on my caffeine intake.

I knew what would be better than caffeine for me right now, and that's Julien but even that's far away from me so I have to just get over it with a glass of water.

I sighed before returning back into working, there was too much work to do well thanks to me being their relative whom they rather treat as their enemy, they gotta take some revenge at least.

I was about to start reading one of the files when a message from an unknown number popped up on my phone.

"Take care little Honey Head, I can't wait to have you in my arm at the end of the day. Your husband is waiting for ," I read the message, instantly knowing that it was from Julien. He was using a different number to contact with me now so as to minimize the possibility of any one tracking us.

I hadn't realised that I was smiling too much while reading the text until my jaw felt stretched. I also realised now that how much was I missing him, the feeling of his arms around my self. It was weird as to realise how addicted I am to him and now these pregnancy hormones were making me crave a little more, well scratch that I crave him a lot.

"I miss you too Julien," I quickly typed in before deleting all his texts. We had to be super cautious of what we were doing as even a little bit of error could cause us a major set back.

I kept my phone down before submerging myself into the pile of files kept in front of me.

"Hey can I come in ?" I was quite engrossed in the files that I was checking when I heard Stracy's voice. It had to be almost an hour since I started working.She was sounding a little too nervous or I was just going crazy.

I nodded towards her before closing the file I was reading. She walked towards me with her hands continuously playing with the fabric of her clothing.

Yeah she was definitely nervous.

"What's up Stracy ?Missing Cabir ?" I shoot out a wink in order to relieve a little tension from the room, which was suddenly feeling too suffocating.

She looked towards me, her face blank before her face fell once again only to look up once more but this time her face held something more, I couldn't recognise if it was just remorse or guilt in them.

I protectively surrounded my hands around my stomach, it was involuntary. Stracy was my friend right ? She could mean no harm. I guess the prior talks with Julien was putting this pressure in me.

"Yeah I guess that and Julien Sir not being here, how are you doing ?" She replied me back with a little smile now making me relax a tad bit.

"Just too much work in the plate right now," I spoke while pointing towards the pile of work in front of me to which she passed me a sympathised look.

She walked towards the chair in front of me and sat down cross legged while rummaging through my files.

"Why don't I help you a bit ? I don't really have much work today while it looks like our boss has dumped the entire office's work load on you," Stracy spoke with a little smile as she looked at me for an answer.

I gave a glance to my watch before contemplating on her offer. Honestly, she is correct I will surely need a little help if I want to finish everything by time.

"If you don't mind then please could you just re-check all the data entries, I would just finish up reading the other files by that time ?" I asked her to which she passed me a nod before we started to finish all the leftover work.

"And that was the last one," I heard Stracy speak out as she arranged the files in order while I cleaned my desk for the day. I took up my sling bag to leave the cabin along with Stracy.

"Wait Isa, just once go through all the work that I have done to confirm if I left any loop hole," Stracy stopped me by holding my shoulder.

I just turned towards her while dismissing her," Come on Stracy I know how perfect you are in your job."

"Sorry Stracy you had to do extra hours for me today. You have been saving since the first day I have entered this office ," I told her a little apologetically as we walked together towards the elevator.

"I am not letting that go, you owe me a dinner," she spoke enthusiastically as we hoped onto the elevator before giving me her puppy eyes. It was really long since we started getting to know each other but I perfectly knew what those looks meant.
Today's dinner was on me.

"Fine let's go, but where ? I am craving some fast food honestly," I asked her while she laughed as we walked out of the office compound, but something caught my eyes which made me stop in my path.

Jaimin was standing near the entrance with his bodyguards around him while watching the process of getting his name engraved on the front walls of the Office.

I felt Stracy too halt beside me as we looked towards the ongoing construction. He was changing the name from JLF Companies to Jaimin L.F. Companies to completely secure his name.

But little did he know that walls could easily be broken if it is not built with the correct foundation, and Jaimin clearly did not do any hard work to earn this.

I glanced towards the walls for the last time as I took out my phone to capture the scene, this picture will be a constant reminder to both me and Julien about our goal.

This wall will be built again, but that time on fame and not family name.
