“Why do you want me to leave his life? Is it because you want him yourself?”Isobel asked startling Melissa.
“What if it’s because I want him for myself? Have only had eyes for Oliver and I thought that I will finally get the chance to be with him but you just had to return. You should never have come back!”She yelled at her.
“You talk like am someone important to Oliver? “Isobel asked.
“If only you knew. Well am glad that you’ve forgotten him and I hope you keep on doing so cause Oliver isn’t someone you should set your eyes on. You think you know everything about him right?”Melissa asked starring at her.
Isobel couldn’t give a reply because the door opened and Oliver walked in. He paused when he saw the two in the room..
“What’s going on?”He asked and immediately Melissa fixed a smile on her face before turning towards him.
“What could possibly be going on? I just came to congratulate Isobel on your wedding. Isn’t that right Isobel?”Melissa asked giving her a look which told her to comply.
Isobel decided to play along not because of Melissa but because she didn’t want to cause trouble for Oliver.
He already has a lot on his plate by having her here and not getting along with Melissa who seems to be his only friend won’t sit right. She thought as she nodded in reply.
“And feeling very happy that someone supports us. I think we should go out to celebrate”Isobel said suddenly.
“To celebrate?. I like that idea. Where should we go?” Melissa asked eagerly.
“I did say we are going out but that doesn’t include you”Isobel said stunning Melissa into silence for a while.
“Why doesn’t it?”She asked and Isobel went to Oliver to hold his hand while she gave Melissa a angry look.
“We are the couple and it’s only right that the couple spend sometime alone and that’s what my husband and I will do. You can come along next time” Isobel said dissmissing Melissa before pulling Oliver out of the room. It certainly must piss her off. Isobel thought happily.
“Why do I get the feeling that things aren’t right between you and Melissa?”Oliver asked a while later as they stood in front of the hotel waiting for Oliver car to arrive.
“I don’t like her just as much as she doesn’t like me”Isobel replied.
“Was Melissa rude to you?”Oliver asked.
“She was more than rude to me. I just don’t understand what her problem is? She was also like that back in the city when I overheard her calling one of Marco men. That was when I decided to…..did I just spill that out?”She yelled as she stared at Oliver.
“Just when did Melissa call Marco men?”Oliver asked now looking angry.
“Its past now and you…..”
“Tell me Isobel!”He yelled at her
“On the day I left for the airport. I overheard her talking to one of them and when I tried to leave. She tried stopping me and out of fear. I pushed her out of the way. I didn’t know if she got hurt though I heard her scream before running out of her house”Isobel Confessed and immediately Oliver turned towards the hotel but she pulled him back.
“What are you going to do?” She asked holding onto his arm.
“What do you mean by what am going to do? Melissa had put you in danger”He replied looking angry.
