Under His Protection

CHAPTER 49

TRAPPED!

“No bella i don’t like this!” Audrey asserted as she watched isabella dressed again to see Timothy, “I thought you guys only met because he was in the hospital?” Audrey asked curiously, she wondered why isabella was suddenly okay with seeing Timothy.

“Yes Audrey but this is just a friendly date to celebrate his recovery that’s all!” Isabella announced, she didn’t know why audrey was getting all worked up for nothing when all she wanted was peace.

“Really, a recovery dinner with just the two of you, i still do not like the sound of it,” Audrey proclaimed, “Moreover i don’t see why he should ask for a private dinner with you alone when he could throw party to celebrate his recovery, I really do not think this is nice.” Audrey continued.

“Its just an harmless dinner Audrey, i was fine yesterday after being alone with him right! ” Isabella confirmed as she continued her preparations, it was almost time and she didn’t want to show up late.

“But that was at the hospital!” Audrey asserted, “Yes this is going to take place in a public place, what could go wrong, it’s just going to take three or less hours and i would be back before you know it.” Isabella explained.

But Audrey still felt unease about it, though she had gone to see him yesterday and came back without any issues she still feared timothy trying to play any smart game on Isabella.

“Ok fine but i would go with you, just to make sure you are safe,” Audrey suggested but isabella quickly objected. “You Timothy doesn’t like you and also it is a dinner for just the two of us,” Isabella noted.

“But i would be far away and would make sure Timothy does not recognized me,” Audrey noted but she didn’t want audrey spoiling what she was trying to build.

“No Audrey, i will be fine on my own moreover i am not a baby and i know you have work to do tomorrow so i think you just need to rest.” Isabella concluded.

“Ok fine, but i need you to promise me that you will be okay.” Audrey declared as she waited for her reply, “I promise!” isabella confirmed as she left for her date.

She already booked for a cab and it was outside waiting, as the car halted in front of the nice looking restaurant, isabella thought to herself about why timothy had actually requested a private celebratory dinner.

Timothy was not one to treat Isabella to nice dates, before isabella had met with Vincent, timothy never had time for isabella especially because Angel always distracted him and made sure she stole all his attention.

And isabella on the other hand never had time because she was always busy trying g to meet up with mr white’s demand and timothy never tried to understand her.

As she walked into the restaurant, she saw timothy waving at her and she quickly walked towards his direction, “Hi Bella,” timothy said as he stood up to gave her a friendly hug and helped her get seated.

“I am sorry I’m late there was a little traffic,” isabella apologized, she was just a few minutes late but it seemed timothy had already ordered a drink before her arrival.

“It’s okay bella,” Timothy replied with a warm smile, he wasn’t concerned about ger coming late because all he wanted was her presence and there she was sitting next to him.

“Congratulations on your recovery,” Isabella said as she handed timothy a gift box she had stoped to get him a little present on her way to the dinner.

“Thanks Bella this is so thoughtful of you,” timothy said joyfully, he never actually thought isabella would ever get him a gift and he was really happy about it.

“Drink?” timothy asked Isabella as he offered to pour in a glass of wine for her, “No thanks, i do not take alcohol,” isabella politely replied, she didn’t want to take anything that hurt her baby and moreover she also wanted to be careful.

“I know that Isabella and that was why i ordered a non alcoholic wine, you can check to be sure though,” timothy assured isabella as he allowed her check for herself.

He knew before hand that isabella woud not agree to take in alcohol and had already made his plans, “You could just order for another wine if you like,” timothy stated but Isabella quickly objected.

She didn’t want him to think that she was suspicious if him or that she was not sure if being safe around him, “Its fine.” Isabella confirmed.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Then timothy poured her a glass of wine and they ordered some nice food which Isabella actually enjoyed and they chatted about old times especially when they were much younger because timothy knew those were their happy memories.

After they had finished with their meals they continued with their conversation but isabella suddenly began to feel strange, she noticed that she was begining to feel a bit dizzy but she was sure the wine was not alcoholic and with they how lively they were bonding she wasn’t suppose to be sleepy.

As she struggled to stop her eyes lids from trying to touch each other, Timothy words grew faint but she was sure she heard what he just said, “isabella i am still in love with you,” he had said.

And isabella struggled to reply, “Oh no Timothy you can’t have feelings for me.” isabella managed to reply as she tried to keep herself awake but she could see blurrily that timothy had put something into her drink and had given her.

“Ok fine, Bella lets just have a toast to my recovery, ” timothy said and handed the drink to Isabella, after they had clicked their glasses together she took a little from the wine and they continued chatting.

“Are you okay?” Timothy asked as he noticed isabella was struggling to be awake, “No i do not think so, i don’t like the way i’m am feeling,” isabella noted.

“How are you feeling?” Timothy asked her with a concern tone as he tried to feign ignorance, “I feel sleepy,” isabella replied with a low voice as she continued in her struggle.

“Don’t worry Bella, i will take you home now.” Timothy confirmed as he beckoned on the waiter and cleared their bill, then he helped isabella up placed her hands on his shoulder and supported her as they both walked towards his car.
