Chapter 5 Hunch

Mark Pov...

When I saw Izzy's picture my instinct was to trust her no matter what. I pushed Fabian to get her into a contract agreement which works. When I'm staring at her profile I can sense a strong vibe emitting from her innocent face. She looks delicate and really outcast but something in her eyes is telling me to trust her as she is not as innocent as she looks.

Now that I meet her personally my hunch was right. It seems she was a sculptured mask into a simpler design and no one will dare to put a fucking interest but she is actually an interesting design.

The way she sits composed and not bothered is already a sign she can handle any stone thrown at her or might a burning fire. Fabian is more bothered than her! Since that scandal, Fabian lost his balance slowly going downhill but now that we have Izzy I'm sure he will get back to where he used to be as Izzy was his balance.

Whatever happened to them that day is interesting. No one dares to get close to Fabian since that scandal and he broke loose with his temper in public. It's good that she is unaware of who Fabian is! If she was aware I don't think he would say hi to him or even approach him, though I'm still in the dark about how they met.

We were surprised by the quick outcome. We haven't done so much effort yet a good result is resounding! I need to help Fabian get back to where he was before and let that damn fucking scandal wield back to the one who throw it at us! Izzy is a strong woman and she hasn't discovered her strength and capabilities yet. People who are down to earth and quiet will realize how strong and powerful they are when they experience the word pain. Few strive harder without knowing the words pain and envy.

"Mark!" Fabian startled me.

"What!" I replied still engrossed in my paperwork.

"Can you tell me what's next right now? Izzy is living well right now like she isn't worried or bothered at all while I am shivering here worried for her time being!" Fabian whined really worried for her. Since when did Fabian Montero scare off something? Don't tell me Izzy mark something on him to be like this. Fabian is a fearless businessman.

" Hey! Fabian don't put yourself too much with this. Remember you both have an agreement and nothing more or less beyond what's written in the contract." I warned him. I'm more worried for him. What if he gets entangled with this and that Monica thing will happen again? I don't think I can't handle this once more. Monica's case was already traumatic and disastrous. I need to remind him what they have.

" Yeah! I'm not Mark. I'm just worried about her. She's a nice woman to get hurt!" He protested. I know you well Fabian. Please don't make another mistake. You are already into this! He was acutely aware that he had been captivated by her charm from the very moment they first met. Her effortless grace and magnetic personality had woven a spell around him, leaving him spellbound and entranced by her every word and gesture.

"Okay! Just don't forget why you are having Izzy in your life right now Fabian." I enunciated my words to remind his purpose.

I sent him home before going home when my car was hit. What the fuck! I blurted shocked. My car was parked properly and yet it was hit by what!

" Hey!" I beamed knocking on the window of the car.

" I'm sorry!" The woman on the driver's side mumbled. I almost laughed when I noticed who she was. Monica's minion! Really? What is she doing here and why did she hit my car parked? Hungry for attention or trying to ruin us again! Oh fuck! They should not start me because I am on the edge when it comes to them. It's because of Fabian that I keep my mouth shut! My patience is too limited.

"Sorry can't fix the mess and I know who you are! What the fuck are you doing here?" I roared. She was taken aback looking at me horrified. What does she think of me? Oh yeah! They think we are idiots like they used to know.

"I'm sorry! I was picking up my phone and didn't notice I stepped on the accelerator." She tried to explain and I almost laughed evilly. Only a fool will believe her fucking reasons. I can see how nervous she was. Damn! She's cunning and vicious! Before we put our guard down that's why they easily attacked us but now I tripled the wall. We learned from our mistakes before.

"Perfect unsalable lie.!" I replied before dialing one of the police stations nearby to send someone to assist us. I will not let her go easily. This time everything they did to us will backfire to them slowly. I don't need to hit a bomb immediately to break a stone or a wall. Killing me softly is way better than that!

"What are you doing?" She panics exasperate but that's how it works now.

After fifteen minutes of waiting an officer came by and she was dumbfounded. Before when they stalk us we let them go but this time I won't.

"Officer I didn't mean to! It was an accident!" She immediately started. I just listened to her cry and everything she said was recorded on my pen.

"I'm sorry but you violated a law." The officer emphasizes.

"It's just a first offense officer. I really didn't mind. I'm willing to compensate him" She tried her best to get to the officer. They are still the same while we change our strategies.

Compensate! I can afford it as my car has insurance. What does she think of me, a beggar?

"I'm sorry miss but you need to come with me to the police station." The officer insisted before looking at me and advised me to follow the patrol car. I went inside my jeep and followed them laughing. They should have found other tactics to con us!

The woman hesitantly followed. I'm not sorry for her. It's payback time! I smirked and sneered couldn't understand why they trying to ruin us again. I called Fabian and told him what happened just outside his house.

"What? Did she really send someone to do that again?" He burst out.

"It would be good if they used someone but she didn't! She used the same woman who pretended and accused you of seducing!" I beep annoyed at how cheap they were.

"What!" Fabian blurted out exasperate.
