A Deal With The Devil

Chapter 21

Simon's POV

She rejected me earlier. But I really don't care.

That face. The face I've been longing to see again five years ago.

Her face was shock with my sudden presence.

I cant hold it anymore. My inside was growling and pleading to kiss her. I miss her so much.

"Simon...." she whispered but I can hear it from distance.

Without wasting any moment, I walked fastly as she was trying step backward but I caught her and grabbed her and clamp her lips to mine.

Her lips. Her beautiful soft lips that I used to kiss five years ago. That lips I want to kiss forever.

Oh God I miss her so much.

But she didn't responded.

I felt her hand in my chest and that hand took a very strong force to push me away.

I felt pain. She rejected me. I want her back again and I will do everything to have her back in my arms again. I want her to be mine forever.

Her eyes was large as saucers. As fast as lightning I felt her hand stung my face with a thousand needles pricked.

I touched my jaw where her hand landed. I deserved it.

"Isa...."

"What do you want?" She demanded.

"Isabella...." My voice was as vulnerable as a child. I was about to hug her but she pushed me.

"Go away Simon. Please." She pleaded and her eyes were teary. Did I hurt her? I saw her face with hurt. I want to hug her and kiss her forehead and tell her it's okay but unfortunately......

"I don't want to see you again! Leave! Leave me alone!"

......

Five years I've waited and five years I've longed. Every single day my investigators her makes me lose hope and sometimes wanted to surrender and leave those five years into a past and move on with my life and let her go completely.

As if I haven't tried that. Sic months after our divorce, I lived my life and continued being a bachelor once again. But, I realized I'm onlyfooling myself and each time I did that, I only grew weaker until I gave up that denial. I realized it now, but it was too late and she was nowhere to be found.

How could you find someone who doesn't want to be found?

The knock interrupted my thoughts as I was expecting my investigator to come in my suite for the background-check of Isabella.

"Sir I have the result." My investigator Oliver Hammond said and dropped the brown folder.

I opened the brown envelope and saw her pictures in her college. The time she graduated in a certain school.

"Five years ago, when she left in New York, her cousin Tasha Campbell Reyes is the one who sent her money to reside their. Tasha's mom, Natasha Campbell Reyes and her husband is the one who supported Isabella's financial to study in University of the Philippines. Isabella graduated as Summa cum laude. Actually, she was already famous in the aspect of fashion designing in the whole Philippines and was also known by some countries."

Im so proud of my baby.

"Anything else?" I asked as I flipped the pages of the brown folder.

I keep on flipping when I saw something else. Her laughs, her hand that was entwined in a man's hand. What the hell?

My blood suddenly boiled in rage as I also felt ny heart tugged seeing her happy in another man. I'm so aggravated in this game. She was already happy while I'm here, struggling and desperate to see het when she doesn't remember me anymore.

"Who is this guy?!" I almost screamed.

"He is Gabe Schultz. There relationship is not serious or maybe must've not taken into an official one. They didn't even kissed, but they do holding hands."

"What do you mean that they didn't got into official one?"

"They don't have a label. Probably they are in a stage of Mutual Understanding."

Are you idiot?! Of course they will be official in not time!

"Anthing else?" I said while holding my temper.

"She will be in New York in two months time and reside their totally."

My mind froze for a moment. She's coming to New York?

"Her Company that is called Bella's Glamour was selling like hotcakes. Investors were lining up to her and her small boutique can't supply all of her her customers."

"She was planning to build her own company for bigger opportunities."

My heart rested for awhile. Bottomless peace and excitement filled me. I will be able to see her again.

I will make her mine again
