Chapter Twenty-six

Mr Martinez pov;

"Sir, Ms Garcia has woken up. Shall I bring her to your room?"

"No need."

I stood up from my place and walked out of the study room and headed to Isabella's room.

The butler opened the door for me, when the closed doors opened wide, I saw Isabella standing near the window.

After I walked in, I signalled the butler to close the door behind which left Mr Johnson outside the room.

When I approached her closer, I found her staring at the garden.

"What are you looking at?"

She flinched when she heard me and let out a sigh and said, "Do you like gardens, Mr Martinez?" Asked while looking at the garden.

"I don't know but when i get concentrated on certain things, it helps me forget unwanted things."

"Unwanted like what?"

"Company issues for example."

She nodded and continued looking at the garden.

"It's weird to see you like this."

"Like what?"

"This one. The silent type."

"Everyone becomes silent when they can't figure out what's happening around them."

"It doesn't sound like you though."

She gave a stare at me.

I continued, "Well, your clothes, bag and books are here. So you can go to school from here. Mateo will pick and drop you to the school from now on."

When I was about to leave, Isabella asked, "Aren't you gonna ask?"

"About what?"

"Nothing."

"Well, drink a lot of water from now on and take a rest." And walked out of her room.

When I came out, Mr Johnson was standing outside.

"You can go inside now."

"I was waiting for you, Sir."

"Then get the meeting ready."

While I was on the way to my room, I got a call from Ethan. What does he want now?

"Hello?"

"Hey, brother! How are you?"

"What do you need?"

"You know me well, brother. Actually, I'm renovating my place so I need a place to stay..."

"No."

"Brother? Please, let me stay at your house. It's just for a week. You know how mom would react if I stayed in the hotel, right? So let me stay at your house, please?"

"Okay. But only for a week."

"Thank you so much brother."

I ended the call.

Ethan Rodriguez, son of Olivia Rodriguez, mistress of my father. Ethan took me as his brother ever since he came to this house along with his mother. Even though his mother hated me to the core, he never did. Instead he stuck to me all the time during school. I never hated him and never showed love too. When his mother asked me to give my father's corporation to her son, I got worried that what if he can't handle a big company like Rodriguez corporation because he's still a newbie to the business platform.
