ISABELLA FINDS OUT..

• B CITY •

THE CITY was in current chaos as the news about Sebastian's death was confirmed.

Most girls who spent their time drooling over Sebastian's pictures or posters were busy crying thier eyes out as their crush was now dead.

The employees at ORBIT were doing thier best to answer the calls that came in all the time.

Others were behind their computers trying to calm the public.

Lucas was already on his way to the Harper's Villa.

Daphne was currently making calls.

Marcelo was sitted on the couch in his house with a puzzled look on.

Clarissa was just pacing about in her room, bitting her nails at intervals.

It was real chaos throughout the City.

Lucas's car pulled up at the garage and he came down from it before rushing to Harper's study room.

He opened the door and met a very disturbed Harper.

Immediately Harper saw Lucas he stood up and walked to him.

"How did this happen?" Harper demanded

"I don't know, the media might have gotten some information". Lucas said.

He looked devasted and there were dark circles under his eyes.

Harper wasn't looking any better, he looked like he had aged another ten years.

"Contact our investors and make sure they don't back out from the deal." Harper instructed.

"I'll do that Chairman, but...."

The door opened and a guard rushed in breathing heavily.

"What is it this time?" Harper snapped at the breathless guard.

"They're lots of reporters outside. They want to have a word with you." The guard said

Harper rubbed his forehead trying to ease the rising headache he was feeling.

"Lucas, get those reporters outta my damn gate". Harper ordered and faced the guard who was waiting for orders.

"Call for back up, make sure they don't get past the main gate." He issued his order.

The guard nodded and got his phone, he began to make calls.

Lucas moved away and brought out his phone to make a call while Harper went back to sit on his chair.

He was looking really tired but his brain was already trying to work on a solution.

Lucas came back and stood before him.

"I made sure they're lots of guards stationed at the main gate." He said

Harper nodded still rubbing his forehead.

"And the investors?" He asked

"HR called, there's a board meeting going on right now." Lucas said

Harper's head snapped up in surprise.

"What board meeting? He demanded

"Apparently all he board members and major shareholders are holding a meeting." Lucas explained

"Jesus, those people..." Harper stood up and grabbed his jacket.

"Let's go". He said to Lucas and they both left the study.

• B PROVINCE •

Isabella came of the room dressed in a simple cream colored gown which reached her knees and a pair of black sandals, her long brown hair was let down. Though she was dressed simply, she still looked stunning nevertheless.

Sebastian looked up from the book he was reading and his brow twitched.

"So..." Isabella spun around slowly. "What'd you think?" She asked

Sebastian took time to take in her appearance. Sure enough the gown hugged her petite body perfectly giving her a different look than her usual cute self. She looked really pretty to be exact but instead Sebastian looked at her and said;

"You look like a jellyfish".

Isabella's eyes widened as she looked at the rude man who had just called her a jellyfish and then went back to reading like he said nothing at all.

"Can you be any meaner?" She muttered

Sebastian gave her an innocent look.

"I'm just telling you the truth, that gown doesn't suit you. Don't you have anything sexy?" He asked

Isabella's cheek turned red.

"What'd you mean sexy, I'm not out to seduce anyone". She muttered

"And yet you are". Sebastian mumbled, staring at her freshly exposed legs.

Isabella looked up. "Huh?"

Sebastian averted his gaze and looked at her. "Like I said, you look like a jellyfish" He said and turned back to reading the book in his hands.

"Why you..." Isabella raised her fist in the air while making a face at him but immediately Sebastian turned to her, she dropped her hand.

"Come on, can't you be truthful at least". She begged

Sebastian studied her again. "You look like a fi..."

Isabella covered her ears. "Okay, fine I've heard you." She cut him off before he could say a thing.

"I'll see you later. There's some food in the kitchen." She said as she carried her bag.

Sebastian nodded. "Buy some strawberries on your way back." He called after her

Isabella rolled her eyes and shut the door.

Silence reigned throughout the living room and after some minutes Sebastian looked at the wall clock.

When he was sure Isabella might have gone far already, he stood up and got his scarf and face cap which he wore immediately.

He opened the door and went out of the house.

• LIGHTNING CLUB •

Electronic music was playing in the background as the employees and employers of LIGHTNING CLUB made a toast.

"Cheers!!" They clinked their glasses together.

Isabella was trying not to drink too much because she knew she would have to walk home.

"Too bad Mr. Mandi didn't make it today. He said he was busy". Manager Felix said

"Let's just have fun". One of the girls screamed and soon they began dancing widely to the beat of the music.

Isabella just watched from afar. Some girls walked up to her.

"What's up misfit". One said

Isabella tried to ignore them.

Of course,being the favorite of the customers and also of manager Felix, she was bound to have jealous enemies.

"Please Sasha, can we not do this right now?" Isabella said

The girl Sasha scoffed. "Yeah whatever. You think you can fool me with your softie attitude."

The other girl behind her laughed.

"I know right, I hate it when she does that." She said

"Let's go girl." Sasha said and knowingly bumped into Isabella, spilling her drink on her dress.

Isabella gasped.

"Oops sorry, not sorry." Sasha sneered at her and walked away with her friend tagging behind.

Isabella bit her lip as she stared at her soaked gown.

She went to the bathroom to clean up.

"Did you hear, about the death of Sebastian Harper?"

Isabella could hear the voice of some people in the bathroom.

Normally she doesn't poke her noses in those kinds of things, but the name Sebastian made her pause on her tracks.

"Oh My God. He's dead?!" The other girl gasped in shock.

"Yeah, I saw it just a while ago". Another girl broke down in tears.

Isabella rushed out of the bathroom stall and snatched the phone from one of the girls.

"Hey!!"

Isabella's breath hitched when she saw the picture and her eyes grew wide with every line she read from the news headline.

"CEO of ORBIT, Sebastian Harper is dead."
