A Deal With The Devil

Chapter 7

.............

Isabella woke up just exactly six in the morning and instantly took a shower then changed into a gray flannel shirt and some denim shorts.

She remembered that she have to cook for his breakfast so she instantly ran down to the kitchen but she was surprised when she saw the maid working. Simon's is probably asleep because the maids are freely roaming around until they saw Isabella they instantly stopped their work and about to walk out.

"No! Dont walk away! Just continue what you're doing. "

"But that's against the rules madam." A maid said.

"I am not Simon so I am happy to see your presence." She smiled.

Everyone smiled and on how she is and they worked again.

She headed to the kitchen and saw the maid that entertained her when she first came here.

"Hi."

"Hi madam..... oh... " she exclaimed and started to walk out of the kitchen.

"Hey don't go."

The maid stopped and smiled.

"Is Simon asleep?" She asked.

"No madam he's in his office for an early work."

"He didn't take any breakfast?" She asked worriedly.

She shook her head.

The driver arrived the house and tried to locate Isabella which is in the kitchen.

"Maam." The driver called out once he saw the track of her.

"Yes?" She turned around only to see the driver.

"Mr. Ross ordered me to deliver this." He said and handed the bouquet and a black velvet box.

"Thanks." She said and ran straightly to her room.

She smelled the roses and it lingered on her nostrils the divine scent of the flower.

Her heart lurched up for the flowers thinking his kinda of a sweet guy.

She opened the black velvet box and revealed a very beautifull princess cut ring with a big diamond pendant. The shimmer played her eyes and was so awed with the ring that she immediately wear it.

She looked at the flowers again and realized that it has a note attached on it.

Here's your engagement ring. Hope you'll like it..

-Simon.

The last night's memories really brought back that this engagement is totaly fake which gives her a sigh.

In the three in the afternoon all she could do is read different novels because boredom really kills her. For some reasons, she was looking forward to see Simon again. She knew that he's boring to talk and so ruthless and all you could hear from him is scolds, commands, arguments but she still looking forward to see him.

Her phone suddenly rang as she checked the ID and it was Lily,her sister. She instantly answered it as being homesick consumed her.

"Lily? How are you?" She chirped excitedly.

"Isabella!" A man's voice answered. Her sweat instantly rolled down and her heart pumps faster.

I'm doomed....

"Dad." She answered

"You have a lot of explaining to do young woman." Her dad spat.

"How could you do this to me?! You didn't told me the debt that is left unpaid and now, you're the one whose paying it by giving your soul to that devil!"
