Unraveling the Mystery
The silence between Isabella and Ross is palpable as he reads through the records, the weight of his next words heavy in the air
Ross/Mortage broker
(Calmly) I've just checked again. According to public records... you're married to Micheal Ferris.
Isabella freezes, her heart pounding as the name hits her like a punch to the gut.
Isabella Farren/Izzy/FL
(Barely above a whisper) Micheal Ferris?
The words echo in her mind, pulling her back to a time long buried. Memories of high school rush forward-flirting, that one kiss, and the awkward goodbyes that followed.

**Micheal Ferris... I kissed him once at a graduation party, and that was it. How could this be?**
Isabella Farren/Izzy/FL
She grabs the edge of the desk, suddenly desperate for answers

(Sharp) Let me see that😠
Ross turns the screen toward her, confirming the absurdity of the situation. Isabella stares at the name, her disbelief slowly giving way to frantic curiosity.
Isabella Farren/Izzy/FL
(Rushed) This... this can't be right. I haven't spoken to him in years. what kind of mistake is this?
Her mind races, trying to piece the puzzle together
Isabella Farren/Izzy/FL
**How could this happen? I've heard of weird things happening with paperwork, but this... this is beyond anything I could have imagined.**
Ross/Mortage broker
(Attempting to ease the tension) Hey, at least you're married to a rock star, right? Rich, famous, living the dream😅...
Isabella forces a half-smile, but the joke falls flat. She can't focus on the absurdity of it. Her thoughts are elsewhere, trying to reconcile the shock🫨
Isabella Farren/Izzy/FL
**A rock star? Micheal Ferris? How could I be tied to him now?**
She feels the weight of the situation press down on her, the dream home she's worked so hard for now hanging in the balance. But there's a more pressing question-how did this happen? How could she have unknowingly married someone barely knew?
Isabella Farren/Izzy/FL
(Faintly) I need to talk to him. I need to fix this. Now.
Ross nods, but the reality of the situation doesn't seem to sink in for Isabella. She stands there, her mind racing with the impossible turn her life has taken.
Isabella Farren/Izzy/FL
**What happened between us? What if this wasn't a mistake? What if...**
But the thought is too much to bear. She pushes it away, determined to face whatever comes next. She's not going to lose everything she's worked for, not over some clerical error or worse
Dear Authy
See you next chapter 🥰
