My Wife Is A Secret Assassin

"Hmm, I would like to give us a chance" Carol answered him, looking shy.

"No, I am asking if this was really your first kiss?" Isaac was still shocked with this information.

Carol glared at him angrily.

"That was your take away from everything that I just said?"

"Yeah, because you are clearly lying" Isaac had a faint smile painted on his lips.

"Excuse me? Why would I lie? This was indeed my first…" Carol trailed off not being able to complete her statement.

"Liar" Isaac teased her.

Carol narrowed her eyes at him.

"I am not lying" Carol was indeed telling the truth, so she was angry at being wrongly accused.

Isaac moved closer to her and hugged her waist, wrapping both his hands around her, "Have you forgotten we used to kiss each other when we were kids?"

Isaac's question embarrassed Carol even more as he made her recollect some embarrassing memories, "At… at that time… I was just four years old."

"So?"

"It is not a kiss" Carol softly shouted at him.

"Then what was it?" Isaac leaned closer to her.

"I need to go back" Carol ignored his question and tried to get out of his hold. 

"No, answer me first"

"Isaac, please" Carol was feeling shy.

He pecked her lips and loosened his arms, letting her go.

While she was walking away, he said, "Hope you will end things with that gold digger soon"

Carol paused in her steps and turned back, "Hmm, right after this dinner I will" Carol took a step and suddenly she thought of something and again turned to look at Isaac.

"You just saw Chance's girlfriend at the table, right?"

"Hmm"

"Who is more beautiful she or me?" Carol asked him.

Isaac smiled at her, "Of course, you" He answered her without any hesitation and without questioning her back as to why she is asking such a silly question.

"Liar" Carol turned back to head out, but she had a huge smile on her face.

"For me, you are the prettiest person in this world, no one can compare to you." Isaac answered her nevertheless with her back facing him.

Carol didn't say anything, she opened the door and headed out but the smile on her face widened in happiness.

When she stepped out the ladies' washroom, she saw a bodyguard of Isaac's standing outside.

That's when she realized, why nobody entered inside for a long time, giving them enough privacy.

Carol joined everyone back at the table, clearly in a good mood, as for the first time, her life felt worth living.

Chance noticed she was in a good mood and after a few minutes, Isaac too joined them back at the table, seeing Isaac who was happy too, Chance realized his plan worked. He was finally able to unite these two after all these years. Thus, saving Carol from Edwin.

'One task done, one more to go' Chance thought to himself.

"Sorry, it was a long call" Isaac politely apologized to everyone.

"Chill, we know how busy you always are" Abigail teased him, "That's why you are still single"

"Woah right, should I set you up with one of my clients? There is this chick, she is damn hot" Mia offered to Isaac.

Carol wanted to smack their heads somewhere, she was just planning to date this guy and her own friends were finding ways to separate them, already.

"No need for that, I already have a girlfriend. Thank you" Isaac politely refused Mia and looked at Carol, who again drank wine to hide her blush.

"What? Already?" Chance teased him, only David and Isaac understood the underlying meaning of his words.

David knew Chance decided to take Isaac's help to get out of this Edwin situation as Chance shared his plan with him.

"Hmm, thanks to you" Isaac lifted his wine glass and looked at Carol, clearly implying thanks to Chance's rejection, he can finally have the woman he always loved.

Carol continued drinking wine as she couldn't take this and was feeling shy, to hide her face.

"Thanks to me? What did I do?" Chance questioned him with a teasing smile.

"Let it be, don't make me say it" Isaac only wanted to tease Carol, not embarrass her in front of everyone so he stopped it.

"No, please tell me, what did I do?" Chance was grinning from one ear to another, as he was truly very happy today after knowing Carol and Isaac already started dating each other.

He thought it will take a few more weeks.

"You are still an asshole. No wonder Lucas always loved me more than he loved you" Isaac teased him back and this statement from Lucas attracted Samantha and Edwin's attention.

The two people looked at each other, they both had the same question in their mind about Isaac.

'Is he the Grim Reaper?'

"Yeah, that was also the reason why he always wished for you to marry Carol" Chance exclaimed surprising Carol, who looked at him questioningly.

Therefore, Chance explained, "Hmm, Lucas always wished to see you and Isaac together. Unfortunately, you are with Edward and now Isaac too has someone." Chance looked disappointed.

Carol was shocked with this revelation as she never knew about it before.

"Elder brother never told me" Carol expressed this to Chance.

"Hmm, he never wished to pressure you to make a decision based on what he wants. He loved you more than anyone else" Chance revealed something to Carol which she was never aware of.

"Yeah, but he always wished to see you with Isaac because he was sure that's where your true happiness lies" David added, informing Carol.

"Why did you never tell me this?" Mia asked David, as she felt bad not being aware of it. If she knew it, she would have definitely pushed Carol in Isaac's direction.

"Then you would tell Carol and might try to set her up with Isaac forcefully." David answered her.

"Then why are you suddenly telling us this now?" Abigail questioned David and Chance.
