Isabelle's pov

**Monday morning**
I'm getting ready for work. I wanted to call Adeyas's nanny but Ray said he's going to take her with him to get a few clothes from his hotel and then they will explore the city and be back home before me.
R:"you look really good baby"
I:"thank you and don't call me baby."
R:"hmmn okay. What time do you get back"
I:"uhm say past 4."
I hug my baby and peck her forehead.

Getting to work I'm informed by my P.A, Julia, my boss Gwyneth wants to see me. I ask her if there was any specific reason and she said Gwyneth didn't mention. I place my bag on my seat and take my phone out of my bag. I try to remember if we have any meeting today. I can't think of anything
I:"morning Gwyneth, I was told you wanted to see me."
G:"oh hey Isabelle. How're you? And little Adeya?"
I:"I'm good. Adeya is fine too."
G:"okay,now to the business of the day. We have a client coming in today. She is American, but three/four years ago she moved here for work. Now she's married and has a kid and she's looking to move back to the states, but first of all she wants to get their house interior re-designed before they move back. Now that's where you come in. You see I mentioned she's American, you're American too, so you know more about the lifestyle over there and all, so you're our best bet. Here are pictures of the house. What do you think?"
I:" wow! I don't know what to say?"
G:" everything will be taken care of by the company. Accommodation, flight, nanny for Adeya, everything. As you can see from the budget, it's not a small project, she wants the best. As it's going to be their home."
I:"hmmn it really is a huge sum, the house looks really beautiful. This is going to take at least a month or two Gwyn. Its a total makeover."
G:"yes I know. You're one of our best here isa"
I:"okay okay, I'll take it"
She squeals, I just laugh and while we're making small talk, there's a knock on the door.
Ellen:"hello, you must be Mrs Davies"
G:"oh please call me Gwyneth"
Ellen:"okay Gwyneth. I'm Mrs Ellen Harrison, but you can call me Ellen."
She's a pretty woman, very uptight I can tell. She has her hair in a tight side parting low bun, she's wearing black pants and a top with a very over the top jacket, and I don't miss the pearl necklace. Who is this Queen of England? Omg! She looks so prim and proper it's so annoying, I just want to maybe scatter her hair a little or something. I shake my head and smile at her.
G:"meet Isabelle Brooke, our head designer. She's American as well and she'll be the one redesigning your house."
I:"its a pleasure to meet you Mrs Harrison"
E:"oh please call me Ellen."
We talk about the plan, I tell her I'll come up with designs and we agreed to meet again on Thursday to go over the plans I have. Apart from her outward appearance, she has a very sweet  personality. I can't wait to begin work in her house. Ray and Adeya are going to be thrilled. Going back to America is very exciting yet scary, scary in the sense it brings back old memories. But I've grown and moved on from those and I won't let them affect me anymore.
