Hey guys, sorry I'm not updating much, I've just started College again and I'm struggling for ideas, I've realized it's best not to rush these ideas so I can update really interesting chapters.

I also want to apologize for my choice of words, I'm trying to base this story as American as I can, but I'm British so typing this can be a little difficult, I'm trying to do this alone and hoping I get there.

Review as much as possible as it gives me hope that I'm going in the right direction for Bella and Evelyn's story.

Chapter 3

It has been three fucking weeks, three fucking long weeks, I ring and ring Cullen's deranged company and all I get are idiotic women who are more concerned about Mr. Cullen's penis than informing me of how Evelyn is doing, I was going out of my mind, my columns in the paper had almost become about green eyed, bronze fuzzy haired children who although barely speak give you more attitude via body language.

All I could see was her face when I'd found her, how lost she'd looked, how fearful, yet it had taken just one day and I could read her body language better than my own Fathers.

I made up excuses not to experience social nights out with my work, or even seeing Charlie, I shut him out.

I spend most of my time at the couch watching Bridget Jones Diary with a tub of Ben and Jerry's, my hair hadn't been brushed in 3 days and the curls were starting to suffer, I hadn't left my apartment in three long weeks and spent most evenings ordering pizza, I was going out of my mind with worry.

There was nothing on the news other than pictures of him, nothing of Evelyn, just of him avoiding pictures.

That Friday when I saw another picture of him on the TV, I instantly became pissed and picked up my cellphone to ring his pathetic company one last time.

As I sat on my couch with an attitude full of determination I hit speed dial, yes, it had become that pathetic that his company was on my speed dial in my cellphone.

"Alice Cullen of Cullen Publishing, how may I help you?"

I stilled for a moment, this was a new person, a Cullen, and normally I had Annabella muttering on about her fake breasts or Jane numb nuts on the phone.

Pulling my determination back together I spoke "Hello, I'd appreciate it if you could help me as I've been going out of my mind with worry whilst all of the secretaries are more interesting in boning Mr. Cullen than the health and welfare of his own child" I huffed "I'm not hanging up this phone until I have answers"

"Excuse me?" Alice seethed

"You heard me, my name is Isabella and if I don't have answers on how Evelyn is doing then I shall be marching down to this lame ass company and I shall be having serious words" My confidence was seething out of control, how difficult was it for some answers here, I calmed down slightly "Look lady, I literally haven't seen Evelyn since I took her to the Hospital and I'm so worried about her."

"Your name is Isabella?" Alice muttered shocked

"Don't tell me you're mentally challenged too, I really just want some answers here on Evelyn" I huffed

"No, I mean, you're seriously the woman who found Evelyn?" She seemed hopeful

"Yes?" I turned down the volume on Bridget Jones as I spoke.

"We've been looking for you everywhere" She screamed and I jumped almost throwing the phone to the floor "Evelyn is really upset she can't see you, she doesn't talk and when Edward saw you holding her on the TV and Evelyn's eyes lit up, he's been desperately trying to find out who you are but the cops won't give us any information."

Charlie.

Then I registered everything she'd said to me "She's not doing well?" All thoughts of Edward freaking Cullen trying to find me long gone.

"No" Alice muttered sad "But we really need to meet you, could you come to our home for dinner tomorrow? Evelyn will be so pleased to see you"

"She'll be there?" I was planning on saying no until I heard the last sentence.

"Of course" Alice sighed "We've been looking for you everywhere, I'm so glad you called, although I do wish you'd have called sooner"

"You're joking, right? Because I've been calling fake breasts and numb nuts every day for the past three weeks"

"JANE AND ANNABELLA GET YOUR ASSES HERE INSTANTLY!" Alice screamed again and I jumped "I see you're ringing from your cell phone so I'll text you our address and the time dinner will be, goodbye!"

When the line went dead, I sat shocked in my own seat with the cell held still to my ear.

They'd been looking for me? Edward sex god Cullen had been looking for me? She knew it was Annabella and Jane? God help you women now.

On one part I was trying to process everything Alice had just spoken, but then on another I was trying to think about what I'd wear tomorrow.

Before bed I opted for a simple red dress with a black cardigan and my boots, I then climbed in to bed and had happy dreams for the first time in three weeks, I was finally going to see Evelyn again … And Mr. Sex God Money, no pressure, no pressure.

I woke up the next day and decided to actually leave my apartment earlier, I went to the book store, Charlie's house for a visit, had my hair styled so the curls didn't hang in front of my face, then I headed home because it was already edging closer to 5pm.

As I jumped out of the cab to my apartment the nerves finally crept in, so I did my best to drown them out.

I poured some Baileys in to my coffee and then proceeded to get ready, turning music on and dancing around as I got dressed in my outfit that I'd picked out the night before. I slid a clip in the side of my hair to keep the curls out of my face as I proceeded to apply a small amount of mascara and lipstick.

I'd never needed to wear too much make up, I was rather confident when it came to my physical features; I pulled on some slight heels and then called the cab.

This was it, I kept thinking whilst I was in the cab, I kept wrecking my brain if I should have brought a gift or not, or wine, or flowers.

I was terrified this would make me a bad guest, but as soon as the thoughts were in my head to turn back and go to a store, we were there.

My heart stilled as I reached for my phone and quickly text Alice 'I'm here'

I got out of the cab and paid the driver whilst walking away, I noticed Alice already at the door.

"Wow, you're beautiful, I mean, we've seen your face already on the news holding Evelyn but you look amazing"

I giggled "Thank you, as do you, I was in jeans and a shirt the day I found her, speaking of so, how is she?"

Alice's smile faded "She won't talk, she cries at night"

My smile faded too as I thought about Evie crying at night.

As we walked into the hallway and Alice took my coat, I was shocked by how amazing the house was, it was huge and beautiful, there was a long rug in the hallway, and we proceeded to walk past what I assumed was the sitting room, I briefly saw a piano in there and my fingers itched to play it.

As we walked towards the dining room, Alice decided to speak again as she pulled us through the double doors "They don't know you're coming by the way"

I gasped, my heart froze wanting to turn back and run but Alice had already pulled me through the double doors and I stood at the head of the table in front of seven pairs of eyes, I blushed, I was stood at the head of a long dining table, all eyes on me, debated on running, I couldn't even see Evelyn, I finally pulled myself together.

"Hello, I'm …"

I saw a little head peak out from the far corner.

"Bella!" I heard a little soft voice scream.

Everybody's eyes turned back towards Evelyn as she jumped from the table running straight to me, I dropped down and picked her up as she almost knocked me over, she automatically wrapped her arms and legs around me as she cried in to my shoulder

"Evie" I smiled "I missed you so much" I kissed her again and she peeked up at me again, wiping tears from her small green orbs.

I rocked her from side to side as I kissed her on the head.

"Don't ever leave me again?" She whimpered, I couldn't promise her anything and that broke my heart.

I looked over her, her fuzzy bronze hair was brushed neatly into pig tails, she had blue ribbons wrapped around each pig tail and she wore a lovely blue dress.

The rich life suited her.

I heard movement then and I looked up to see all six people staring at me, I blushed red as Alice ran to my side.

"This is Isabella; she is the lady who found Evelyn." Alice explained without missing a beat, all of the adults still seemed in shock but Esme broke her gaze first.

"Isabella?" Esme smiled as she stood "It's so lovely to finally meet you"

I smiled weakly as she kissed my cheek, it seemed like Evie wouldn't move for anything so I rested her on the side of my hip as I walked around the table being introduced to Esme, Carlisle, Jasper, Emmett, Rosalie and … My mouth dropped open as I stood face to face with Edward Panty Dropping Cullen, I didn't know whether to drop my panties or run for the hills but both options didn't seem possible, especially seeing as I was holding his only child.

Confidence swam over me as I looked him over, he was tall, strong, and muscular and the monster munch looked exactly like him but in female form, I giggled and extended my hand.

His hair was wild on his head and he dressed in a grey v neck jumper with black pants and shoes, I whimpered internally at his strong body and attempted to contain my drooling.

"Isabella Swan" I spoke confidently "Evie is your exact double"

His confused expression dropped instantly as he stood tall and confident, he extended his strong muscular hand to shake mine "Edward Cullen, I can't explain how wonderful it is to finally meet you, Isabella Swan"

Oh my, his voice was strong, confident, and deep and did the strangest things to me.

I blushed and he observed the blush with a wicked glint in his eye.

"Well, I heard you were looking for me so I decided to just let the tables turn" I smiled, still holding his large hand with my small slender hand.

In that moment Evie peered out of my shoulder and her eyes met her Father, my hand dropped from his as his eyes instantly met his Daughter.

There we no words, but the admiration that showed on both of their faces, although Evelyn did not remember Edward before these three previous weeks you could still see that she adored him.

"Your voice is beautiful" He reassured her and she blushed hiding her face back in my shoulder.

Edward already seemed completely different than what the journalists wrote about him, he was strong, confident and was full of the business attitude, until his eyes landed on his daughter, he then expressed more adoration than I'd ever seen.

I realized in that moment that the Cullen family had just witnessed Evelyn talking for the first time; I didn't know whether to feel awkward or proud of my girl in that moment.

"Please, stay for dinner" Carlisle motioned towards the dinner table, I sat down in between Evelyn and Alice, but that meant I was directly sitting across the table from panty puller Cullen, I giggled nervously and only his eyes met mine.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm a little nervous" I smiled as I sipped at my wine

"Nonsense" Esme smiled gently "You have no need to feel nervous, however, I do believe that when dinner is over we'd love it if you would stay for a chat"

Obviously gesturing that when Evelyn went to bed we'd discuss more about how I came to be in possession of their long lost granddaughter.

As I made eye contact with Edward, I felt a small hand fit into mine; Edward's eyes instantly locked towards our hands, and then he made eye contact with his daughter, a bright smile came across his beautiful face, so I looked down too.

Evelyn had pulled her tongue at Esme, clearly knowing that we would be sending her to bed after dinner, however Esme had not noticed.

I giggled

Attitude

"Hey, Evie bug" Her green eyes met mine as soon as I spoke and instantly sparkled; she leaned up in her chair so she was almost my height and then gently twirled the curls of my hair with her fingers, then moved her hand from my hair, down my face and then she tickled my nose, I smiled brightly, impressed that she'd actually remembered my gesture of calling her a Princess in the Hospital.

"You're the only Princess I see here" I tickled her nose, and in that moment my heart stopped as I heard the brightest yet cutest little giggle escape her small pink lips.

I looked over her face and saw the tiniest of a smile, it faded as soon as the giggle erupted from her, and she looked almost as shocked as I did, I didn't want her to feel different or that she couldn't express her emotions because if she did somebody would look at her different so I pulled my tongue at her and looked around the table.

Evelyn hadn't noticed yet, but I had, everybody's eyes were watching us, I looked towards Edward and his eyes shone bright, just like how hers did, but his face was showing shock, I noticed the rest of the family worn the same expression, I didn't want Evie to notice so I motioned to Edward, his eyes met mine as he fixed his expression, then he noticed his entire families expressions and decided to interrupt their thoughts.

"So what is for dinner, Mother?"

Of course, he calls her Mother.

I rolled my eyes and instantly his eyes locked with mine, he squinted his eyes as his brow furrowed, clearly he didn't like my eye roll and a smirk slowly came across my face.
