Sexy, Seductive, and Sultry

Isabelle’s POV

I can’t believe mom was killed, noo. The attack looked so real and was meant for dad. Images of my mom’s pale face came to my head and I screamed, scattering my hair.

All these years, the demon who killed mom had been living with us. Mom, why? Why did you have to die for him?.

Is dad aware? Does he know that his mistress killed his wife? I’ll never let you get away Ann, I’ll ruin your life..

“Isabelle please open the door” Alessandro pleaded and I sobbed gently.

“Just go away,” I replied.

“I can’t leave, your pains are mine also, I can feel your hurt” He replied and I placed my back on the door, sobbing loudly.

“Just let me be for today” I pleaded and he sighed.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

“If that’s what you want” He replied and walked away.

“Why are people so desperate for power? Taking the lives of others meant nothing to them… Mom… All these while I’ve been correct, I knew that your death wasn’t accidental but the man you married paid no attention, all he was concerned about was becoming the president. I’ll make sure they never have to rest my, I promise to avenge your death” I vowed.

My heart felt too heavy and I felt my throat drying up, finding out that the most amazing woman in this world was killed just because of a position felt very disheartening.

I wish I was the one who had died instead, I wouldn’t be living in this mess.

I wiped my tears, pulling myself together, the deed has been done and what I need to do is avenge mom’s death, I’ll press charges against Ann and won’t stop until she’s put behind bars.

I went to the bathroom, used water to clean my eyes, and stared at my face..

Gone was my old makeup filled face, gone was the soft Barbie… now is the new me, the girl who cares about something, the new family I call my friends.

Gone was the selfish, self centered, saucy drama queen, I’m down to earth now and care about people around me.

“Isabelle, are you okay?” Brianna demanded, immediately she saw me.

I nodded, smiling. “I’m fine”

“Are you sure? You don’t look too good” Thomas replied and I smiled.

“What are you up to now?” Alessandro inquired.

“I wish to see my dad, it’s high time I stop hiding and take the bull by its horn”

“What! You could end up dead the instant you leave this place, too many people are on your tail, you’ve got to hide” Alessandro grumbled and I held his shoulders.

“I’m tired of being a coward, if anybody wants me then they have to come get me… I’m going to see dad today, you can’t change my mind” I replied sternly.

“I’ll go with you, why do you wanna see him?”

“I’m going to rescue my siblings from that demon, I’ll be going for an interview very soon, the election is just 2 months away, I want everyone to know the type of candidates they would vote for”

“Don’t go too far, take things slowly, there’s still time…”

“I’ll be back soon, let’s go” I replied, strutting out and Alessandro ran after me, still trying to stop me but hell my mind was made up already, it’s now or never!.

We took a taxi, Alessandro felt restless throughout, looking back, trying to see if anyone followed us.

We pressed the gate bell and a guard opened the door, he closed his eyes and opened them, staring at me with shock.

“Open the damn door” I ordered and he opened the door.

Even though I hated the scanning, I had no option. We were led inside and Ann stared at me with shock when she saw me.

Andrew and Annabella ran to hug me, I hugged them tightly, smiling happily, Annabella’s leg had healed perfectly and she had a guilty look on her face.

Dad walked down, looking pale, thin and haggard, he stared at me with astonishment before opening his hands wide, he enclosed me in a hug, muttering some words as he patted my head.

“Where have you been child, you’ve got me worried all these while. Don’t ever do this to me” He scolded, his eyes beaming with tears and I nodded, trying not to break down.

Never had I imagined that my father would look this rough, a stumble had grown on his jaw and I guess he had been too busy to shave.

If only he had listened to me and given up his political ambitions.

“I have something important I wanna discuss” I let out and Ann jumped from her chair, making us all surprised.

“We have somewhere to be at, we’ll be back soon” Ann excused, beckoning to Annabella and Andrew who groaned and grumbled.

“No Ann, what I want to discuss is important to the lives of everyone and I think everyone needs to know it” I replied sternly and Dad glared at her.

She sat back, shivering slightly and Annabella wondered why her mom changed suddenly.

“What’s wrong mom? Your hands are shaking” Andrew pointed out and Ann smiled faintly.

“What do you wanna say Isabelle?”

“First I’d like to start with you and Ann, you guys are the worst people on earth, I thought of you as a father before but after finding out your secrets? The number of people you’ve killed just to get this position… the money you’ve embezzled, the lives you’ve ruined and the people you’ve neglected, you’re worse than a monster. The person my mom married is different from the new you”

“Watch your tone…” Ann fired.

“Shut the up fuck up bitch, you’re his backbone, the one who keeps pushing him into creating more havoc.. you both have secrets together and apart, You’re a completely different person from who you portray to the media”

“Do you know the number of people being trafficked at the illegal pubs you own? Do you know the number of lives destroyed all because of the drug lords? You take lots of bribes from them… all the money you have is completely worthless because you’re just storing them up but it’ll never be in your name or used for good things” I broke down, tears rolling down my cheek.

“What do you mean? Ann, what is she saying?” Dad demanded.

“I mean Ann has been working with drug lords and traffickers. She helps them get out and in the country and she even goes as far as getting them out of prison… Your administration has lots of evil deeds and you weren’t even aware?”

“Do you know that Ann has more than 15 numbered accounts where she stores up millions of money, while lots of people are on the streets and working very hard to get even $100 but can’t. Do you know that while you have lots of estates in other countries and properties there are some homeless people who are left to suffer?” I demanded angrily.

“Mom? It’s not true right? You.. you don’t own a pub right?” Annabella stuttered, breathing very hard and was trying to digest all the news.

“What the fuck has come over you? Damn! And what if I have all these you’ve mentioned? Huh? What is it to you? I worked relentlessly for those things, don’t get on my nerves. Do you know the number of guys I’ve had to fuck just to get little pennies from? I was from the streets and I know what it means to live there…”

“I’m doing all these because I don’t wanna go back! If I don’t do this, you guys would suffer a much worse fate than I did. If only you know what power means, you wouldn’t be blabbering. I’m hungry for power and I did everything within my means to get it. Is achieving a goal bad?!” Ann thundered.

“Achieving it the wrong way is bad! Mom, what happened to working diligently? I would rather be poor and good than an evil wealthy person, I hate you!” Annabella retorted, crying profusely and Andrew tried to calm her down.

“That’s enough, Isabelle there’s no going back, consider all the sacrifices we’ve made just to get here. Isabelle please stop, I know you’re trying to get back at us but just stop all these. I beg you” Dad pleaded and I scoffed, bursting into laughter.

“Get back at you? I’m doing these for the country? I want justice to rein” I replied and he puffed, wiping sweat.

“Ann, you’ve gone overboard, you tried to kill me! Your daughter was shot all because of you. You’ve been on my tail right from day one, what have I done to you?” I demanded and gasps filled the air.

Dad’s mouth was hanging out with shock and Ann had her head buried, breathing heavily.

“Ann? It’s a lie right? I told you not to hurt Isabelle didn’t I?!” Dad thundered, shattering a vase.

“What would you have me do? She was getting in the way of my business and I tried to take her out!” Ann retorted angrily and I shook my head, damn she wasn’t feeling remorseful even after being exposed.

She’s nothing but a hardened criminal.

“Ann, I can forgive you for trying to take my life and even Annabella’s wound but there’s one thing I can never let go, the death of mom. You killed my mom” I let out and Annabella passed out while Dad turned sharply, shaking his head and breathing very hard.

His face turned pale and he coughed, trying to still his racing heart. He found it unbelievable.

Ann’s eyes widened and she staggered, obviously shocked at my revelation.

“You’re speechless, you thought you could get away with it when you killed her 8 years ago… Be ready for war, I’ll avenge mom’s death…” I vowed and walked out while dad passed out, guards rushed him and Annabella out.
