Isabella

"Isabella! Dear girl, where have you been all this time? We were all so worried about you. We were starting to think that maybe you had been killed then your body was just thrown away, " she starts to wail, turning me around to check for wounds, I guess.

"Her words but me different. Was she part if the plan to get me killed that night of the party? She could have let Federico know where I was and which vehicle exactly. Maybe they were communicating that whole time at the party. Is she the one who extended the invitation to him? If she was part of the conspiracy, then I wouldn't be surprised at all.

I remain stiff like a stock while she dramatically checks on me and tells me house the whole family has been looking for me.

"Where were you, Isabella? We looked everywhere for you, " she continues lamenting. She is really trying her best but I can see through her act.
