Fated to Love You

11 Care to have a chat?



Mark Harris observed the girl interact with his grandson freely. He didn't know what to say after looking at the smile on the little boy's face. Mark Harris observed the girl for a long time and he felt that his worries are baseless as she did not even know his grandson's identity.

In her eyes, Ben is just an average 5 year old boy. She treated the kid with love and care which every kid needs at that age.

Mark Harris busied himself after his son-in-law and daughter died. He took care of the entire business by himself. So, he did not have enough time to look after this boy.

His son Brian Harris helped him to manage the company and he was also training to become a model. They arranged a nanny to take care of Ben, but the boy slowly distanced himself from them.

At that time, Mark Harris did not understand the reason. But, after looking at this teenage girl, he understood the reason. His face turned pale and he felt a pain in his heart. He cursed himself for not taking care of his only grandson.

" Old Sir, your complexion is not looking good. Please have some water." Isabella handed him a glass of water with a worried look on her face. Mark Harris came out of his thoughts after hearing a pretty voice. He looked at the girl with a tired smile and accepted the glass.

Isabella waited till he finished drinking and patted his back to prevent him from choking. Mark Harris smiled gratefully at her.

" Girl, care to have a chat with me?" Mark Harris asked while looking outside through the window.

Isabella was surprised but she accepted his invitation as she sat opposite him with a curious look on her face. Mark Harris observed her posture and chuckled. This girl did not try maintain an elegant and refined image. She sat freely with her legs crossed against each other. 'This girl is truly unique' Mark Harris smiled in his heart.

Isabella did not speak and remained silent waiting for the old man to speak with her. His voice showed a trace of sadness and guilt. That is the reason why Isabella agreed to chat with him.

" I'm Mark.." the old man before her extended his hand.

" Isabella" she politely shook his hand.

" Bella, just accompany me for a while. It's a bit stuffy in here.." Mark Harris spoke while pointing at his chest.

Isabella smiled at him. Mark looked at her " You look very happy. You must have a good family, right?"

Isabella's smile froze for a moment but she immediately recovered as she nodded her head with a proud smile" Yes, I have a caring little brother."

Now, it's Mark's turn to be surprised " You're an orphan?"

Isabella nodded and Mark Harris was stunned as how this girl can be so optimistic. He was sure that she must have gone through a lot in the process of taking care of herself and her brother.

Even though, she is always smiling and she did not blame anyone for her condition. Mark Harris always respected hard workers. His impression on Isabella only improved again..

" What are your future plans?" Mark Harris could not help but ask. She is not planning to work here permanently, right?

" I want to be a professor.." Isabella's eyes shone brightly. She did not feel that the old man before her is trying to harm her. So, she lowered her guards and spoke freely before him.

Mark Harris almost choked on his breath after hearing her words. Now-a-days every teenager is aspiring to become a model or an actress. It's his first time hearing a pretty girl wanting to become a professor.

" What is your choice of discipline then?" Mark Harris was really curious.

" Mathematics and statistics.."

Mark Harris looked at her bright grey eyes and he could not help but remember that person. This girl's carefree attitude, sitting posture and ever her face is reminding him of that person.. Mark Harris was stunned by his weird conjectures and he immediately shook his head to get rid of his weird thoughts.
