The Billionaire 3: Tyron Cruz

Isabella opens her eyes and was surprised to see three men who she only sees in business magazines.

"W...who?" She suddenly wakes up making her dizzy, catching the attention of the three.

"Oh, you're awake." Joshua Levine said.

""W...what?"

"You fainted earlier; Gabriel called us to watch over you here while he handled the press." Rafael said and as if on cue, Gabriel and Hal entered the room. "Where is Tyron?" Isabella asks but the people around her shows a grieving face. "I just talked with Tyron before going back to sleep."

"That is impossible, Isabella." Lohan said. "We were here guarding you and you never once woke up, but you keep on calling Tyron's name." He added. "That is impossible!" She insisted. "I had a talk with him and we confess our love for each other... I even told him about my pregnancy."

The four men looks at each other while Hal approaches her while crying.

"Bella, there are guards outside and no one enters this room aside from us." Hal said making her feel down.

"Then, that was just a dream?" Isabella mumbled. "It seems to be true..." she added and cried as she can't contain the pain in her heart.

'I will always watch over you and our child.' It was Tyron's last words that keeps on ringing on her ears. He must've visited her in her dreams.

This is reality-Tyron really left them for good, but what is more heart-breaking is the way he died, she can accept it if it a natural death but a death from explosion? That is another story.

"Mister Zamora, can you tell me why my husband went to see you?" Isabella gathers her courage to ask.

Gabriel looks stared at her for a moment before answering.

"Gabriel is fine. I guess telling you the truth is okay." He said and she nodded. "Tyron went to my office to see the results of the investigation." He said making her frown.

"Is it about me again?" She asks. "So, you are the one who called that night."

"Yes, but he didn't listen to me to the end. And your case is interesting making me dig deeper. It turns out that you and Tyron are connected before both of you were even born." Gabriel said. "Before we continue, is it fine that they are here? If not, they can leave us for a moment." He asks, pertaining to his friends. It seems that he noticed that she keeps on glancing at the three men.

She is okay with Hal being there but she doesn't know the three personally.

"I...How are you three related to my husband?" She asks.

"We are his friends." Lohan said.

"We are supposed to have a boy's night out scheduled this coming Saturday but then this happened." Rafael said, who seems very careful about his words.

"If you are uncomfortable about us being here, we can leave you for a moment." Joshua said.

"N...no, it seems that Gabriel trusts you guys, and you are my husband's friends." She said.

"Thank you." Joshua said.

"Then I guess we can continue the conversation." Gabriel said and she nods. "First and foremost, the reason why they are here is because you need someone to guard you and having someone not related to you following you around will cause suspicion. But these three here..." He points at his friends. "Are related to Tyron as we are friends and you will not have to be worried about rumors because these three here are devoted to their wives and fiancée."

"Guard me?" She chuckles making her husband's friends confuse. "Oh, sorry, it's just that I heard that from someone-my grandfather, he played a villain to protect me."

"And I can't blame your grandfather, that was his last resort. And now, this is what Tyron wants; he told me earlier that whatever happens to him, I should keep you safe from his Uncle."

"He already knows?" She asks in surprise, and even Gabriel and his friends were shock to her question. "Don't get me wrong, it's not like I know it from the start and kept it from him. Grandpa told me about it when we heard the news..." She explains. "That's what we talked about earlier, honestly, I send my men to follow you two around and his Uncle, but I didn't expect him to act fast. If only I was early and fast enough, I could save Tyron." Gabriel said with remorse.

"I...it's okay, it's not like we like that to happen..." Isabella said softly. "All I want is to bring justice to Tyron's death and our father. Now that we know who is behind these, it is easier to put him behind bars."

"I will do that. That's what I promised Tyron." Gabriel said with determination. "And I will not let him down."

"Thank you. Tyron is blessed to have friends like you." She said as she smiles. It hurts that her husband is no longer with them but he left her an important person-and that is their child. She will do her very best to go through her pregnancy and to grow their child in a happy and loving home. "By the way, is there-"

"Gab, big trouble!" a man suddenly enters the room and if she's not mistaken, he is Phil Collen Monteverde.

"Don't you even know how to knock?" Joshua mocks.

"No time for that!" Phil said, and looks at Gabriel. "There are men asking for Don Samuel and Isabella's room number. The hospital staff managed not to spill information but we need to act fast. Fred's men planted explosives around the hospital but no need to worry because your men already disarm it."

"Good grief!" Gabriel sighs and glances at her. "We need to take you out of here and your grandfather as soon as possible. We cannot risk the life of others."

"Where should we go? And is it okay for my grandfather to leave the hospital? He is still under monitoring." She asks, worried about Don Samuel.

"With the help of someone from above, we can get your grandfather out of here. As of the moment, we can say that as long as you and your grandfather here, we are all held hostages." Gabriel said.

"I already messaged Fabian, and he has something to tell you Gab." Joshua said. "Damn you, Zamora!" He added making Gabriel glares at him. "Don't glare at me, man. I am just passing you Fabian's message."

They heard a faint knock on the door and a man in a white coat enters, glaring at Gabriel and his friends.

"I am a busy man, Zamora and not your servant." The man said.

"Whatever, dude!" Gabriel said. "Can Don Morgan Samuel be discharged today?"

The man in white coat glances at Isabella before sighing.

"He is still under monitoring but I can assign a private nurse-"

"There's no need for a private nurse, Fabian. My team will provide for it." He cuts him off.

"Fine. A nurse is a nurse anyway." Fabian sighs. "I heard that someone planted bombs around the hospital, did you already do something about it?" He asks firmly; the seriousness on his face is no joke.

"My men already disarmed all of it." Gabriel answers. "That is why the faster the Don and Isabella get out of your hospital, the safer it will be for the people here."

"Damn! First, Tyron and now my hospital?" Fabian said in anger. "The person behind it really wants you dead!" He added as he glances at Isabella.

"I'm sorry..." she apologizes.

"No, there's no need for you to apologize, its not like you wanted this to happen." Fabian sighs. "Money is indeed the root of all evil. I just hope that things will be better for you and Ty... I mean for you and your baby." Fabian averted his eyes away from her. "Thank you... What happened is unexpected and heart breaking; we both leave the house hand and hand, but now, I will be going back home alone, without him in that big house..." she said and her tears started to fall again. "I'm sorry, I should not be crying but I really can't help it... I still don't want to believe that he really is gone. The talk that we had earlier, I know that that is not just a dream... Somehow, I want to believe that he is not dead-that he is alive and is just watching over me."☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
