Chapter 12

"Isabelle?" her mom stared at her with an incredible expression.

Belle was standing outside their house facing her mother.

"Who is it, Lydia?" someone called from the inside.

"It's your daughter, Jack." Lydia answered.

"What!" someone shouted and there was shuffling and he too was staring at Belle.

"What?You guys aren't going to let me in?" she raised an eyebrow at them.

"What are you doing here, Isabelle?" Jack asked with a creased eyebrow.

"I was suspended." Belle stated

Jack's eyes flared and Lydia gasped. "What!" Jack shouted.

"Stop shouting, will you, it's irritating." Belle snapped at them

Her father slapped her in the face and dragged her inside. His fingers clenched around her arm. Lydia tried to stop her husband but it was no use. He was too strong.

"What did you do this time?" he asked with rage.

He turned her face to his face. His other hand clutched her in the side of her face. "You bitch, I gave you everything and this is what you give back to me. What about the company? when are you ever going to learn? You can't be expelled on that school or else it's better you won't study at all."

She didn't say anything and just stared at him.

"You can't stay here." he said and pushed her. she stumbled down and her mother quickly helped her.

"Go somewhere else and don't come back here until you graduate."

"But, I'm a freshman! I have three more years year until I graduate." Belle Argued.

"That's your problem. We'll send you money but don't ever come back here if you aren't going to be a valedictorian." he said. "I'll send some people to check on out on how you're doing and certainly no boyfriends and even friends. They're all just bothersome people."

"Your insane!" Belle shouted and walked out the house slamming the door behind. Her mother was going to follow her when she was stopped bu Jack's booming voice. "Don't you dare, Lydia!"
