Chapter 94 Leaving the Landon Group
Isabella hit straight into Seb's arms suddenly.
She looked up and unexpectedly met Seb's deep, dark eyes, her heart racing. She tried to struggle, but Seb held her wrist tightly, not giving her a chance to escape. His dark eyes trapped her like a net. "Isabella, we agreed to go our separate ways. Why are you here again?"
Seb's gaze swept over her, thinking about Isabella's body pressed against his shirt, which stirred his uncontrollable passion. "Are you doing this on purpose?"
"Mr. Landon, you misunderstand. It was Ms. Field who brought me in, I..." Before Isabella could finish her sentence, Seb pinned her against the wall. "I had let you go, but this time you came to me."
"Mr. Landon!" shouted Isabella.
Seb's kiss descended upon her, and she tried to push him away but he pinched her waist.
"Mr. Landon." Isabella trembled in his grasp.
Seb was almost being driven mad by her, his impulses reaching their peak. He couldn't hear her pleas.
No matter how Isabella begged and cried, she ended up under the covers.
Seb's actions were almost frantic, like a restrained beast finally set free, his movements rough. Isabella only felt the pain and heat in the area he had pressed down with his fingers.
"Mr. Landon!" At this point, Isabella knew she couldn't stop Seb. When she looked up, she saw a square-shaped condom on the bedside table.
She reached for it, handed it to Seb, and tremblingly said, "Use this."
Outside the room, Vanessa listened to the sounds coming from inside, her fingernails digging into her palm.
Yes, this was all her design.
She had spiked Seb's cold medicine with an aphrodisiac. The soup spilled on Isabella was also part of her plan. Even the condom on the bedside table was her preparation.
She did all this to stir Seb's emotions. Once he used that condom, she could get what she had always wanted—his sperm.
Implanting his sperm in her would also allow her to get pregnant.
Listening to the sounds coming from inside, Vanessa was almost going crazy.
After a while, she turned and expressionlessly went downstairs.
"Vanessa." Laura walked over, seeing her alone, and asked, "Where is Isabella?"
"She left."
"Left?" Laura was surprised. "Didn't you say you were going to take her upstairs to handle something?"
"She didn't go. She left first," said Vanessa.
Although Laura was somewhat suspicious, she didn't say much. "What's wrong with you? You look so pale."
"Nothing." Vanessa forced a smile, telling herself that it was all worth it. Once she passed this test, she could get what she wanted. Once she got pregnant, she could truly become the mistress of this household.
All she had to do now was to wait.
After everyone finished eating, Vanessa saw them off at the door.
"Vanessa, goodbye."
"Vanessa, thank you for your and Mr. Landon's hospitality. Remember to come to the company to see us often. We all miss you."
"Okay." Vanessa smiled and agreed to each one.
After everyone left, she couldn't maintain the smile on her face any longer.
"Ms. Field." Nina came out carrying a canvas bag. "The kitchen is all cleaned up. I'm going back."
"Got it." Vanessa coldly responded and turned back into the house.
Nina found her behavior strange but didn't dwell on it. As she walked out of the villa, she called Isabella. But no one answered the call.
"It was weird," Nina said.
She hadn't seen Isabella since then. Even though Vanessa said she had already gone back, Nina was still worried. She wanted to call Isabella to check on her, but after several attempts, no one answered.
Just as Nina was about to call a cab to go to Harvar University to check on Isabella, Isabella called back.
Nina quickly answered the call. "Bella, why are you only answering now?"
"Sis, I'm fine." said Isabella.
"What's wrong with your voice?" Nina could tell something was off with Isabella's voice.
"I'm fine. I took a nap in the dorm. My phone was on silent and I just woke up."
"I see." Nina breathed a sigh of relief. "Rest well, I'll hang up."
"Okay." After hanging up, Isabella looked back at the sleeping Seb, grabbed her coat, and walked out of the room.
"Isabella." A voice suddenly called out to her.
Isabella froze in her tracks.
Vanessa walked up from behind, looking at her flushed face, disheveled hair, and rumpled collar, as if she understood something. Her face was filled with shock. "What's wrong with you?"
Isabella shook her head, tears falling, feeling incredibly humiliated at that moment.
She had done that with Seb and was caught red-handed by Vanessa.
"Wait for me here and don't leave. I'll go in and take a look," Vanessa said as she stepped into the bedroom.
The bedroom was dimly lit, the bed in disarray, the air filled with the scent of lovemaking.
Seb was sleeping soundly. Vanessa went straight to the trash can, took out the used condom, and put it in a tube she had prepared.
After sorting everything out, she walked out.
"Isabella, what did you do with Mr. Landon?" Vanessa's voice turned stern.
"I'm sorry." Isabella lowered her head, unable to face her.
"Do you expect me to forgive you for doing such a thing?" Vanessa sneered. "Isabella, I can pretend that nothing happened last night, but you have to promise me one thing."
Isabella looked up. "What is it?"
"Leave the Landon Group and never show up in front of Mr. Landon again. This is my final kindness to you."
Early the next morning, Seb woke up from a daze, opened his eyes, and saw Vanessa's face.
"Seb, are you awake?" Vanessa lay naked in his arms, one leg under the blanket resting on his waist, in a very intimate position.
Seb rubbed his slightly sore temples, looking at her with suspicion. "Was it you last night?"
"Of course it was me. Who else could it be?" Vanessa rolled over and sat on his waist. "When Mr. Landon and I are together, are you still thinking about others?"
Seb looked at her, but the passion from last night was gone.
He grabbed Vanessa's wrist, moved her aside, and sat up.
The room was in chaos, tissues filled the trash can, almost overflowing.
But Seb vividly remembered the moans under him being Isabella's, yet today it had turned into Vanessa. Perhaps it was all his illusion.
His phone rang, it was Jack calling.
Jack said, "Hello, Mr. Landon, something's happened."
