Billionaire Baby Daddy novel (Abigail and Mason) novel Chapter 29

Sydney's POV

"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." I kiss the back of her hand. "I've put you into so much danger so many times and for that I'm sorry. I don't know how you'll take this but I have to leave. We might meet again in future and I really don't know what to think about that. I wish I could tell you you're the best thing that has happened to me so far and I'm sorry because I tried to get you involved with my life for selfish reasons." I kiss her forehead. I place my palm on her tummy and wish for the same feeling. I wait for a minute but nothing happens. I guess I wish for things too much. "I'll miss you. Goodbye Izzy." I kiss her forehead once again. I look at her face trying to memorize everything. Out of compulsion, I kiss the side of her lips.

The memory has been engrained into my mind. Isabella is asking what I said to her but I'm not ready to confess to her. Today everything went well but what if Bianca hurt her or the baby? I would never have lived with myself that's for sure.

I look at my hand holding Isabella's and release it. "It doesn't matter what I said that day. It was nothing important." I try to say nonchalantly but Isabella is looking at me curiously. It's like she can see past these walls and read everything in my mind. That's unnerving. I look away and take Isabella's half bottle of water and drink the rest of it.

"Was Bianca there? How does she know what happened?" I love how Isabella notices details so fast. When Bianca mentioned the hospital incident, Isabella had the same confused look.

"No. But Amelia was. I don't know why I was so stupid to realize sooner." The Amelia situation is so frustrating. Isabella doesn't say anything.

"Are you okay?" Isabella asks and I look at her curiously. "I know there might be a war between the Italian and American mafias." I sigh. The moment we shot the first Italian man a war was declared against us. Bianca was taken amd locked up in a cell I haven't used in a long time. She might seem stupid but she's loyal to her family.

"Unfortunately there's gonna be a war." I run a hand through my hair. I have to get everything ready. Isabella takes my hand into her smaller ones.

"Don't worry, you can do it." I almost smile but I notice something in Isabella's pocket. "What's that in your pocket Izzy?" She tenses at this.

"I totally forgot. How could I be this careless?" She mutters making me confused. She puts her hand into the pocket and pulls out something. Is that...? "What the hell Isabella?" I shout. Is this woman suicidal?

"I forgot, okay? I was to throw it at the men when I told Bianca I had to pee." Oh, Isabella.

"Did you notice it would have still affected us?" I feel anger inside me raise. "Give it to me." She wastes no time and I take it. The safety is still on.

"Anything else still on you?" I ask her.

"You wouldn't believe." Isabella snickers and I laugh a second later. "Do you want me to do anything when you fight against the Italians? I'm good with guns." Isabella says with a proud smile and I find myself staring at her. I go to the fridge and open a secret cabinet then place the grenade in.

"The only thing you'll be doing is being safe by staying at home. That's unnegotiable." I say with finality. Nothing else can happen to her or the baby. I place my arm on her belly at the same time Isabella does. We smile at each other with no words said. Gosh, I want to kiss her so much.

"Let's get you to bed." I say instead.

"Or we could watch a movie as the adrenaline wears off." I don't watch movies. They are a waste of time but I still nod. "But I have to take a bath first. I reek." Isabella says as she makes a disgusting face. Cute.
