365 Days To Love-Chapter 182 - ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-TWO:Her Eyes Said It All.

Chapter 182: Chapter ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-TWO:Her Eyes Said It All.

He’s so worried.

This has been exactly two hours straight,she had left for the orphanage while promising to be back to have lunch with him.

She’s not yet back and she’s not picking up her phone either,which made him really worried.

The trauma of finding out that her child was dead was a lot for her to take in,which she had proved to him these few days that she’s okay.

Surprisingly,she had told him that she was going to the same orphanage which had brought her nothing,but sorrow after finding out about her child,which he didn’t get to find out the reason for her sudden visit there.

James knew that it was not in his place to interfere in her life, and try to make her understand the fact that she’s not the reason for her child’s death.

Yes,she might not be the whole reason why things turned out like this, but she had a part in it which he understood where her point was, because if her husband didn’t turn against his wife,they wouldn’t be facing all these now.

He didn’t want to appear selfish or whatsoever, but her leaving her husband’s was nothing but a chance for him to meet such a gorgeous lady.

Isabella had being nothing, but a good fortune in his life,there’s absolutely no reason why a man in his sane mind would think of making such a gorgeous lady,like her, to make such a decision in her marriage.

A deep sigh left his lips again, after calling her for like the fifth time only to get it that her phone was switched off.

Something is definitely wrong somewhere,which he could feel,she has not done any thing like this aside from when she needed to be left alone.

But today’s action was uncalled for,she left in a much more happy mood which he could admit,it was just there so that she wouldn’t get him worried.

What made him more worried was the fact that she had left without any protection, anything could happen to her as long as her husband is still out there.

He doesn’t know what level her husband can go for her,but there’s this feeling in him that it would be a long ride for the both of them once Antonio gets to solve the puzzle.

That would be if he hasn’t found out yet that his ex wife was now living as his wife, something he can never have again even if he kills himself for it.

Bella wouldn’t accept him back anymore,she despised him and loathes him to from the fibre of her being,which was what he needs to hold onto.

She wouldn’t go back to him.

But she wouldn’t accept him either, which she had told him right from the very first beginning. She was not ready for any relationship at the moment,all she was focused on was destroying Antonio Sinclair.

He walked into the sitting room with hasty footsteps when he heard some voices there,and was disappointed the moment he saw that it was Mary on the phone with her friends.

"You need to calm down man, nothing is going to happen to her,maybe she’s just stucked in traffic"He muttered to himself ,trying to make up any reasons why she was acting this way to keep his mind at bay, because he’s fucking loosing it at the moment.

Every single day,he’s scared of the fact that he might wake up to realize that she’s not with him any more.

That maybe,her husband had taken her away from him,which is not going to be possible, because this time he’s going to fight for his place in her life.

He’s going to prove to her that he can be the man of her dreams,three times better than her silly excuse of an ex husband,he’s going to prove that to Bella.

"Dad,are you okay?"Mary asked,when she was finished with her call to find a grimace look on her dad’s face,while staring into space.

There’s absolutely no reason why he would have that expression on his face, when business is moving fine which leaves her with no options than to figure out that maybe he was having some issues with her stepmom.

No!

Isabella,not her step mother.

"Did you mom call you to tell anything about her coming back late or something?"He asked,walking up to where she was seated.

She’s right.

It’s always going to be about her, Isabella,whatever her real name was before she stole her father’s name.

"Stepmom father"She corrected,rolling her eyes at his question,"Besides why would you think she would do that,when i hardly give her the attention she wants from me?"

She shrugged her shoulders,moving back to her phone when it chimed from a message from Jenny.

"Your Mom has not been picking my calls for the past two hours Mary,and you aren’t worried about the fact that she’s not doing that"James asked,when will she ever grow up?

She was not taking any of Isabella’s advice and right now,he was pissed and tired of her attitude towards the woman he loves.

Shouldn’t she be happy that finally he found someone who makes him happy,since the death of her mom?

That’s the least she could do as his daughter,or does she not think of his happiness?

Soon,she would be married and he would be stocked here all by himself, while regretting the reason why he lost her mom, which was not his fault.

But Isabella has filled in the spot and is making his dull world to be colourful,so why is she being a barrier to what he wants?

"Oh please Father!she could probably be in her boyfriend’s house or something,did you actually think she was so innocent as she looked?"She blurted out without reasoning her words,which she regained her senses back,but it was too late.

"Mary this would be the first,and last time you talk to me like that as if i am some kid!"He thundered,"What do you want me to do? Don’t you want my Happiness?"

"Father I..."

"What sort of a daughter are you Mary? I give you everything you ever needed since you were a child up to this level,but what do i get in return? Nothing,but your disapproval over this one request of mine"He asked,his eyes blazing red,that she felt bad for being so clumsy and saying that out loud.

Her dad was right,and it’s too shameful of her for what she’s doing. He wasn’t the reason for her mom’s death,but rather,all she had ever done was frustrate his life by taking a second chance at love.

She’s nothing but a headache to him for years now,and it’s time to stop.

"I’m sorry...’’Her statement was cut shut by the door opening to reveal her step mother,who her father was worried sick of, but something was wrong because she’s crying,not just any normal crying.

"Bella"James rushed over to her,before she could fall to the ground,holding her to him while cupping her teary face,"Hey sweetheart,what’s wrong?"He asked worriedly, trying to keep his anger in check.

Anytime she comes back from the orphanage,it has always been like this,but it’s not like it’s new news to her that her child is dead,which he’s still suspecting that something might be wrong about that information.

"Is she okay,dad?"Mary chipped in,a little bit corcerned about her,if she’s not happy,her dad isn’t going to be happy either.

"I.. want to die James,I can’t live ..like this.. anymore knowing she’s going to hate me for the rest of her life"Bella cried,while Jakes pushed her to his chest,cuddling her and patting her hair which is not going to work at this point of time.

"Bella you are getting me worried,what exactly happened? Talk to me please and stop putting me on edge here"He pleaded,she needs to open up to know what exactly transpired at the orphanage.

"James,I need to find her,please"She begged,her chest heaving up abnormally,that she found it a little bit hard to calm down.

"You need to find who exactly?"He asked,before turning to Mary"A glass of water,Mary?"

"Okay dad"She left,still confused about what exactly is wrong with her step mother.

It was not in her place to pry into her private life,but she’s her daughter,and if they were to get along with each other,they have to get to know each other.

"Here dad"She gave the cup of water to her dad,who didn’t relent in forcing Bella to have a drink.

"The Nun at the orphanage lied,she’s not dead James,my child is not dead"Bella cried,

"She had a child?"Mary asked,"Wow,that’s quite interesting."Mary laughed,and earned a look from her dad which made her scoot away from the two, to the farther end just to avoid him throwing that cup at her in anger.

"I had the impression of that,if she did said that your child was dead,she wouldn’t have buried her with the wrap,she would have kept that waiting for you to show up"

"I met my child today,I met her today James,she .."

"You need to calm down Bella,let’s sort things out,I don’t want you getting sick about..."

"I don’t care whether i live or not James! I need to find her"She yelled.

"Okay,I’m sorry Bella, what exactly happened so i can be of help"

"The Nun earlier met up with her at a coffee shop beside the orphanage,I ran into her there,you should have seen her James, there’s absolutely no way she can’t be my daughter,but she bolted off before i could have a proper discussion with her,she ran off James! Hazel ran off"

"Did you just say Hazel?"Mary asked, the moment she heard that girl’s name coming from her stepmother’s mouth.

There is absolutely no way it can be Hazel,there’s a whole lot of people who go by the name Hazel.

"Dad,she just mentioned Hazel,and the girl is an orphan,so .."Mary was cut off by James’ eye,before he turned to Bella who was still trying to understand what was going on.

"How does she look,your daughter?"He asked,patting her face to clean her tears away.

If his presumption of what Hazel looked like fell into her description,then,her daughter was closer to her than she had imagined.

"Dark hair, grey eyes..."Both Bella and Mary said at the same time.

"You know her?"Bella asked Mary,who flashed her a smile while walking up to her phone in hand,before shoving it right in front of her face.

"This is ..."

"She’s Hazel Blackwood, future grand daughter in-law to Knights Empire,I can’t believe you don’t know who she is all this time"Mary said,she doesn’t understand her stepmother sometimes,like who in the world doesn’t know who that pauper turned princess is?

Well,aside from her mother who abandoned her when she was a kid.

Mary, stop it!

She warned herself.

James smiled at Bella,cupping her face as her mind was scattered at the moment which he knew was from the news she just got.

"Congratulations Bella,you have found your child"

Should she be happy?

Bella knew that as much as she was happy that she’s alive,that nothing had changed because she doesn’t want to have anything to do with her.

Was it her fault that she’s this way towards her?

That’s a big yes!

This is the cross she would have to carry all her life, because Hazel is definitely not going to forgive her.

Her eyes said it all.
