The Truth

1018 Words
Axel’s P.O.V Today is a busy day at work. I have three meetings and a board meeting all in one day. As I’m going through my paper work that I need fit three meetings I hear knock on the door. “ Enter.” “ I know today is a very busy schedule but I need to talk to you.” My assistant June says “ Yes of course. Please take a seat.” “ I just want to give you a message from a woman named Isabelle Gomez. She told me to tell you about the summer in Hawaii and that it’s very important that you guys schedule a meeting.” I haven’t heard that name in three years. granted it was just a summer fling and I didn’t know her last name. I’m very interested to know why she has contacted me after all these years. “ Um when I have time I’ll have you call her so when can meet. Is that all you wanted?” “ Yes sir and the meeting is in twenty minutes.” “ Thank you June.” When She leaves out of my office I no longer can focus on my work. My mind drifts to the summer I spent with Isabelle. All the meetings were successful and during the board meeting we came up with a new technology idea that will hopefully have a prototype in a few months. Later in the day I go home and my chef cooks me dinner. I call my soon to be fiancé to let her know that I made it home safely and that I’m going to sleep. The next few weeks go by and I finally have a little time in my schedule to meet with Isabelle. My assistant calls her and tells her to meet me at Starbucks. I arrive at Starbucks a few minutes early. I’m sitting at a table drinking my dark coffee when I hear a women say “ Hi Axel.” I look up to see Isabelle standing in front of the table. I look her in her eyes then my eyes travel down her body. She is even more beautiful than she was before. Don’t get me wrong she was always beautiful it’s just she has a lot more curves and I can’t quite figure it out but the way she presents herself has changed. I know it’s wrong of me to think the way I’m thinking especially since I have a girlfriend. I need to make an excuse to end this meeting as quick as possible. Isabelle takes a seat at the table and I tell her that I have a meeting so we have thirty minutes to talk. But in reality I don’t have a meeting I just need to get away from her. I ask Isabelle what’s so important that she needs to tell me and she says she won’t tell me. That makes me very confused why would she not tell me what’s so important? She’s the one that asked to meet me to tell me something. Now that we are here she is not saying anything. Isabelle then starts talking about getting to know me and my dumb self blurts out I have a fiancé. I don’t know why I blurted that out but I immediately said our time was up and I need to go. Isabelle gets up and follows me out of Starbucks. “ Axel who is this?” “ Axel are you cheating on Chloe?” Damn they found me. The only thing about owning one of the richest companies in the world is your always in the public eye. My team that I always have with me comes to lead me out of the crowd. I arrive at my car and I remember that I was with Isabelle. Worried about her safety I immediately tell my men to go get her and bring her to her car safely. I drive home in deep thought. I know I care for Chloe but do I really want to marry her? What amazes me is how even after years apart I still remember how it felt to have Isabelle in my arms. Just looking into her beautiful eyes brought back so many memories that I have suppressed. I know the meeting we had did not go well. She probably thinks I’m an arrogant asshole. I want her to get to know me not only because she said she will tell me something important but because I want to get to know her. It’s been two weeks since I last heard from Isabelle. Ever since I’ve talked to Isabelle I couldn’t stop thinking about what she said so I decided to hire a private investigator. Today he will be coming over my house to give me information on what he has found. “Axel!” My sister yells as she runs into the living room with her computer. “ Zoe why are you yelling?” “Just look at my computer.” She sets her computer in front of me and I’m big bold letters I read Axel Chambers secret child? I continue to read the blog post and my blood boils. Is this what she wanted to tell me? I immediately call Ryan the private investigator and tell him to come over my house as soon as possible. One hour later Ryan shows up and he gives me allot of information. He tells me her age which caught me off guard because that means she lied to me in Hawaii. “ Ryan when was her daughter born and who is under father on the birth certificate?” “ Leilani was born February 2, 2014 and dad is not identified.” I start to calculate her age and the last time I was with Isabelle and it all adds up. “ Damn it!” “ What?” Ryan ask “ She’s my daughter that’s what. Look you can let yourself out or you can stay I don’t really care.” I grab my car keys and run out of my house.
