For Isabella a husband cheating on his wife during pregnancy has always been a headline in a newspaper until she believed it's occurring in her own relationship. Maybe it's true or false. Still, she wasn't ready to watch everything fall down when those who are supposed to be closest to her are doing the opposite.

Out of all the emotions it had to be jealousy to make her realize that she actually loves Zaid and does not hate him at all. She disliked certain things about him but has never hated him.

Isabella pulled up in front of the Azad mansion in the bright afternoon and parked her car, her bodyguards' stopping right beside her.

She instructed the tall men with black aviator sunglasses and Bluetooth earpiece to wait outside and took gentle steps towards the main door.

The times where her mother and she used to be humiliated because they were poor and she was the child of a non-Muslim flashed in her mind. She was laughed, ignored like she doesn't exist on few occasions and her mother was pitiful to watch. Isabella was basically a mistake according to the Azad family. Her fragile heart was shattered to pieces in times she shouldn't even face similar situations.

Now she is the wife of one of the powerful man in the country, let's see how she'll be treated.

Ringing the doorbell, she adjusted her handbag in a way to show from which brand it was. She waited until one of their maids who were supposedly richer than her at one time opened the door.

"Please come in, ma'am," she said in full grin like a celebrity is about to bless the house with her presence. Like owners, like servants

"Where's everyone?"

"I'll call them right away."

She took a seat on one of the chesterfield couches where she was forbidden to sit as her clothes were made of cheap materials so it could ruin the quality. My foot

Placing her bag beside her, she didn't have to wait long as one by one, her aunts and cousin Bilal appeared, dumbfounded with a hint of excitement.

"What a nice surprise, dear."

They greeted, touched cheeks to cheeks lightly and ordered their maids to bring refreshment.

"That's new," she muttered.

A change in social status truly made Isabella understood the harsh life. No one cares about you unless you're rich and famous. When she was a poor teen from a deadly neighborhood, she was given leftovers in terms of sympathy. Now she's the wife of a businessman, the food will be fresh.

"Not that we are complaining but what brings you around?"

"Have you forgotten that we are family, auntie?"

"Of course not, I have always praised you my child. You are very successful. Now the heir of Tahir companies- I mean you and Zaid now will have a child, small family is happy family..."

"Thank you for your first time compliment to me. I'll share the news to my husband at dinner."

Their eyes gleamed with delight, looking at each other's reaction. They are definitely well trained. Not too late but plates and trays that she was never allowed to see in her lifetime were placed in front of her. They urged her to at least take a bite or they were even ready to prepare something to her preference. Let's take advantage.

"In that case auntie, I'd like your mango cheesecake, never had a chance to eat it before." Translation: you offered everyone in front of my eyes and shoved the empty plate on my face with an excuse, sorry it's finished.
