ISABELLA•

"Mind your language Isabella" Language? All he cares about is language now?

"Fine. If that'll make you happy then sure." I said as I got up from my seat and stormed to my room.
I shut the door behind me as I walk towards my balcony, that's when my eyes instantly fell upon the little plant planted by me and Leo.

Me and Leo know each other since we were four. Our families always had a great friendship which initiated from the alliance we created with each other. Our fathers were the kings of the mafia underworld which had led to this alliance.

This also meant frequent family meetings and dinners. Which led us on becoming best friends. My dad always used to say that Leonardo will protect Isabella and he did, he never let anyone fuck with us anytime. Which soon became the reason to go away from him.

The day when a guy told me how my personality had change into a wannabe attention seeker. The exact day when I realized that I wanted people to know me with my personality, with who I really am and not based on the people who I'm with.

And in simple words, there at the school cafeteria, I hugged Leo for the last time and fled to New York City, to complete my college and I did graduated with a business management degree.

The whole time I was in New York
I made sure to train myself. Being from the richest also meant being from the most dangerous one. Though Leo had called me once when he probably got to know I'm in New York and I didn't wanted him to care about me nor I did. So, I started hating him. For the Good.

But if I speak honestly I've loved someone. Only once in my life. And that guy was Leo but the only reason to hate him is the way he thinks he's protecting someone, but he doesn't realises how it affects that person's personality.

My thoughts were pushed aside by a knock on my door. I walked to my door to unlock it and it was Leo.

"May I come in, ma'am?" he said as I slowly nodded and moved aside to provide him some space to get in.

"Wow still the same, I see." he grinned as I replied "I always loved my room the way it was." and he just said 'I know'. Men.

"Um what's the purpose of being here?" I asked as he took a deep breathe "Ehm I just wanted to let you know that I talked to uncle right now and no one is forcing you to get trained by me. I know you don't want to so it's fine." He said this with such sincerity that I felt a pang in my heart. Like it just got stabbed. No Isabella you have to hate him. Hate him so that you won't fall in love with him. Again.

"Give me 5 minutes, I'll be downstairs to tell my final decision." I said as he nodded and started walking towards the door and then he just suddenly stops, giving me a last glance, he leaves.

As soon as the door closes behind him I take a deep breath, I really needed to cause I don't know what to do about this now. Though I don't wanna disappoint dad but taking over a huge empire meant I had to push my thoughts away.

10 minutes later

-LEONARDO-

About 10 minutes later I see Bella walking down the stairs. She looks at me and then proceeds to sit down on her chair. I keep looking at her, observing her every moment as she takes a inhales sharply "Dad, I stay at Leonardo's for training and learning business."

Everyone fell silent for a minute and then uncle just smiled at her warmly and looked at me, "Dear Leonardo, I've known you for so long now and I truly believe that you will excel her in everything. She's now yours." He said and everyone including me looked at him wide-eyed.

What the actual fuck does he mean? The moment he realized, he clarified straight away "I meant she's now your responsibility. Train and Excel her just like you. You kids are too dirty minded." He said shaking his head, clearly disappointed, he looked up at me and I swear he literally winked at me. Honestly I'm too lost now.
