After 3 years

It was adrenaline rush. I was in a drag race. My opponent is gaining in speed I can't let him win; it’s not just my money but also my pride. I stamp hard at the accelerator I speed up; I look at the reviewer mirror. I smile triumphly when I saw he was far behind. But before I can laugh my heart out a car show up in the intersection. I hurriedly step at the brakes. Thanks to my reflexes. The sound of screeching wheels made me close my eyes. The car also stops.

"Damn it! What the fudge! Get out!" I said and push the horn hard. The driver side open and a tall man came out. Then my opponent car came rushing buzzing at me mockingly.

"Freakin hell!" I shout. I open my door. "What the fudge man!?" I shout at his face. I saw an angry handsome guy.

"You are the fuck woman! What the hell where you thinking? Didn't you saw the red light there!? Red means stop, stupid woman!" He yells at me.

I breathe hard. "Damn it! If you’re worrying about your freaking car I'm gonna pay for it." I said looking at the sleek black jaguar.

"I don't care about my car! I care about my life!"

"Hell it is! You cross the freakin street. Now I lost the race!"

"You don’t stop at the red light! Now you’re illegally drag racing!"

I was about to answer him when I hear the police siren. I was about to enter my car when he hold my arm tightly.

"Not that fast." He said.

"Sir, is there any problem here?" One of the police men ask.

"There was just a-"

"This girl is drag racing and did not stop at the red light." He cut me off.

"What of course--" She tried to deny.

"You explain at the precinct. We will see at the traffic camera." Fudge! I'm doomed!

"What the hell Yssabelle? Don't you have any respect at us? You always put us in controversies! It was the fourth time I bail you out in prison!" My brother said controlling his anger.

I bit my tongue trying to block the scene. She tried imagining their faces as an anime character she always watch in her phone when she has nothing to do in her life. But it’s not effective.

"If isn't for your name, maybe you are now rotting at that jail. I raise you to be a better girl Belle!"Her father said.

"Sis, you’re really that bored in your life that drag racing makes you excited?" Lawrence said.

"It would be okay you know? But damn you don't choose a man you'll gonna mess with. That guy is Sean Gates. That hot Greek god like guy! That hot tempered man." Aphrodite said dreamily. I rolled my eyes.

"Aphrodite." Lawrence warns her.

"What? That true. You’re lucky he holds you. I'm gonna put my one season collection just to have him." She said.

"Eww!" I said.

"Aphrodite!" Lawrence yells.

"Fine." She said.

"Belle that was Sedric Christian Gates III the owner of Gates corp., they are our family friends since the beginning. The Stronghold and Gates are partners before we decided to be apart. You should understand that they are one of our pillars, our roots." Her Father Yllac explains. "Why would you risk your life in drag racing? What else do you need? Can't I give you everything Belle? What Belle? What?"

“Nothing Pa."

"Then why do you have to do that? Why do you have to escape your guards?! Why do you have to risk your life for that money you’re getting there and endanger your life in exchange?" Her father yells.

"Nothing, just for fun."

She knew even she explained herself; she will be scolded by them still. It happened many times to her, so she let them scold her.

They continue on scolding her. She takes a deep breath and look outside the window. Since the day her father take her in she was lock in that mansion. Once a week her Mommy Layla and Daddy Aidan visit her together with Aphrodite and Larence. Her life change. She can't go out without security; she can't hang out with her friends. When she graduated Lawrence became her lawyer. Aphrodite got married and Lawrence follows. She works at their company and as usual every body bow at her. She hated it ache never like it or get use to it. So after a year she resigns. She plan on having her own business, but her father won't let her. Of course he can give me the money I want but still he won’t. He never trusted her on doing her thing. Until this time he sees me as a vulnerable child.

They all treated me like a crystal glass. There so many don'ts. Until I got bored and do all the things I like, and it felt good. Even though they see me as a rebel now, at least I got to live my life.

Damn! I put all the money on my bank account on that race. Now what will I do? Without that money I can't go out. That fucking bastard made me loose.

"Yssabelle Stronghold!"

She look at him, "Yes, Pa?"

He looks beyond piss because ache’s not listening.

"I don't know what to do with you anymore Yssabelle. Mark said your bank account goes to zero a while ago." He said clutching his chest. His voice is low now, means he surrender. "I was really thinking I won’t accept Sed's offer, but now I have a second thought." He said. Lawrence became alert.

"Uncle, you’re not thinking-" Lawrence voice filled with concern.

"Yes, I accept the marriage proposal of the Gates."

"You’re just mad at her uncle. It's not the solution to our problem." Aphrodite interferes.

She's stunned. The fudge. Married!? Who the hell he thinks he is? If he's getting tired of her why not let her go?

"I knew Sean all his life. He's a good man. Also the fact that he can manage my businesses, then Stronghold and Gates will unite again."

"But I think it’s unfair to Yssabelle." That’s Lawrence.

"Like I said she's giving me no choice. We can't be at her side always Rence. Think of it, both of you are married. Layla and Aidan are busy with their grandchild. I don't get much younger. Sooner or later I need to retire. I need someone trust worthy to look after the company. Besides Sean can protect her well."

Business! I heard enough. Again for the second time around he's gonna entrusted me to someone. Why can't he do it himself?! I stand up and walk to the door. But I made them angrier.

"Yssabelle come back here and sit down!" Aphrodite commanded angrily.

"I'm through listening." She answers. "I need to get my car back."

"You’re not changing ever. From now on I will not give you any allowances, not allowed to get out of this house and you’re not getting any of your trust funds from me or from your mother!" My father yelled.

"But that's my money! That Mama's money! You can't forbid me to that!"

"You’re only getting it if you marry Sean Gates."

"This is my life! I'll decide what to do with it!" I said then run upstairs.
