Twisted Secrets- I Give Birth To A Billionaire’s Babies ( Isabella Halls )

Chapter 17



Chapter Seventeen: Hiding Their Relationship 

Inside, Isabella worried about becoming the day’s hot tople again at them, a woman with a curvy figure, clutching a coffee, rushed toward her. The entire contents of the cup drenched fabella, ruining both her outfit and the breakfast Alexander had made for her, as everything splattered on the floor. 

“Oops, didn’t see you there.” The blonde, Maddie Kingston, flicked her hair nonchalantly, her tone far from apologetic. 

Spectators gawked at the unfolding drama. ‘We’ve been trying to catch Alexander’s eye for ages. Why does Isabella get all the attention, always stepping out of his car? How can she be so brazen? Their minds buzzed with jealousy. 

Isabella was deep in thought and didn’t react immediately when the coffee spilled on her. She glanced down at her coffee–stained white shirt and quickly shielded herself with her purse to prevent any wardrobe mishaps. Isabella remained calm, viewing the incident as just a small accident. “Next time, be more careful and try not to be so reckless.” 

“I’m really sorry, I’ll definitely be more cautious.” Maddie tailed Isabella. “Haven’t you had breakfast? Should I get you another?‘ 

“No need, thank you. It’s nearly lunchtime anyway. Don’t worry about it, I’ll take care of it myself.” 

Alexander, observing from a short distance, saw the whole scene. He understood that Maddie’s actions were intentional and noticed others nearby who seemed amused by the situation. 

Once Isabella was out of sight, Maddie went back to her friends. “See, I told you she’s too innocent. I do something like that, and she still thinks it’s just an accident.” 

The group laughed together. “You’re so smart. She’s supposed to go with the boss to meet a client today. How’s she supposed to leave with her shirt looking like that?” 

Maddie smiled smugly. “Well, she probably won’t go now. I bet the boss will ask me instead. I refuse to believe I can’t win over him more than her. She’s just a stupid plain Jane.” “Find this funny, don’t you think?” 

Alexander’s voice cut through the air. Maddie, visibly shaken, feared for the worst. “He must’ve seen everything. What if he fires me?, Where can I get a job that pays this high?” She nervously approached him. “Boss, I swear it was an accident, it wasn’t intentional. I’m so sorry, it occurred due to my mistake. The coffee was scalding hot, and it slipped because–““Scalding?” 

Alexander’s brow furrowed, and he quickly made his way to Isabella’s office. Thinking Alexander had let her off the hook, Maddie breathed a sigh of relief. “That was absolutely terrifying. He’s good- looking, sure there is no doubt about that, but he’s really scary when he’s mad. I can’t imagine what will happen if he finds out.” 

“Tell me about It,” another woman chimed in, equally rattled. In her office, Isabella was trying to clean the coffee off her blouse, looking upset and angry. Just then, Alexander entered. Are you

alright? Isabella. I hope you’re not hurt?” she shook her head. “My clothes are all wet and stained. I can’t go to the client meeting with you today.” 

“Drake, get a women’s suit and some burn cream along with an Icepack, fast.” Alexander’s assistant, Drake, immediately appeared. “On It, boss.” Alexander’s concern for Isabella was evident. 

“Don’t stress, Drake will return shortly. How’s the burn? Did the coffee scald you? Is it hurting?” 

Isabella’s neck showed a slight redness from the burn, causing her some slight discomfort and pain, but it was subsiding. “I’m okay, it’s not too severe, it will heal in a few days time.” She set aside the tissue she had been using. “It really was just an accident. I wasn’t paying attention and walked right into her. It isn’t her fault” 

Alexander stayed quiet, deep in thought about the appropriate response to the incident. He felt a sense of responsibility; as a leader, it was his duty to ensure a respectful workplace, and today’s event highlighted a lapse in that duty. Recognizing the need for action to prevent future occurrences and to safeguard Isabella, he planned to address the matter with those involved.” 

Focus on your tasks. I’ve got a meeting, but I’ll bring your clothes over once they arrive, I’ll see you later.” “Go take care of your work. I’m fine, really, I am. Don’t let this distract you, please. Just focus on your work.” 

In his office, Alexander scrutinized the surveillance video and called in those that were implicated. Your reasons don’t matter. After today, you can’t stay in the company, you simply can’t. You made your choice, now face the consequences. I can’t keep vicious and unprofessional people in my company” 

Maddie was tearful and meek. “It was a mistake. I’ve apologized to Isabella. It was an honest mistake. Please, can you give me another chance? I can assure you, It won’t happen again.” 

“Again?” Alexander was clearly annoyed and upset about the whole matter. “I’ll keep this incident. confidential, but this is your last and final warning. Be careful of your actions in the future” 

Maddie had always aimed to captivate Alexander since day one, attracted by his looks, wealth, and loyalty. So she wasn’t ready to give up. “I’ll replace Isabella’s clothes. But I want you to know it was truly accidental and wasn’t intentional.” Attempting to influence Alexander, Olivia subtly unbuttoned 

her shirt. 

Alexander averted his gaze, unimpressed. “Do you conduct business like this? Are you really that shameful and desperate? Can’t believe such a disgraceful person works under me.” 

Realizing her seductive approach was futile, Maddie reluctantly buttoned her shirt back up. She had been confident in her ability to captivate any man with her forward approach and body, but Alexander’s disinterest challenged this belief. He rejected her and her body. 

Alexander was seething with anger. “Pack up and leave now, before I really get mad and do what I will regret. I’ll have payroll give you three months‘ pay. Just get out, right now, and never come back.” 

Maddie, scared and in tears, pleaded with him. “Boss, I’m still a valuable asset to the company. Your can’t just throw me out. I’ve loved you for so many years. I’ve been obsessing about you. You must

have known.” 

Alexander’s disgust was evident. “I can’t stand women who don’t respect themselves. If you want a chance at future jobs, don’t even think about staying here.” 

Maddie thought hard about her options. Without money, she felt worthless. This scandal could ruin her future job chances. ‘Alexander is so heartless,‘ she thought, wiping away her tears. She turned to the other women behind her. “This was all our plan.” She pointed to a tall girl. “She’s been against Isabella from the start and pushed us to do this, I’m not the mastermind.” 

“Alright, expect a letter from my lawyer,” Alexander said, giving her a brief look. 

“It’s not what she’s saying. I didn’t do that, I don’t know what she’s talking about.” the tall girl quickly tried to defend herself. 

But Alexander wasn’t interested in their silly excuses. “It doesn’t matter. I trust only what I see and all I can see is you being guilty.”
