Chapter 64 Theodore coldly said, âMy name? You donât deserve to know it.â
âIn a few days, my people will deliver the check to you.â
With that, he took Isabellaâs hand and walked away.
Mooreâs mother stared at his retreating back, her eyes filled with anxiety and resentment.
She turned and headed straight for the Gu Corporation.
When the assistant led her to Nathanâs office, he looked surprised. There was a hint of disgust in his eyes.
âWhat are you doing here?â
Mooreâs mother nervously rubbed her hands together. âSonâin- law, I really have something important to discuss with you.â
Nathan nodded to the assistant. âYou can leave now.â
The assistant left, closing the door gently behind him, then stood silently outside, not leaving immediately.
Inside the office, Nathan couldnât be bothered to pretend anymore. His expression shifted to one of impatience.
âIf you have something to say, say it quickly.
Mooreâs mother hesitated. âVictoria came to see me.â
She knew that mentioning Victoria would get Nathanâs 1703 Chapter 64 1288 Voucher attention.
As expected, Nathan looked up at her, his eyes silently asking her to continue.
Mooreâs mother said, âShe told me that you and Isabella havenât been getting along recently.â
Nathan furrowed his brows. He had never taken Isabella seriously, so he didnât understand why her emotional issues with him were causing such a stir with Victoria and her mother.
âSheâs just throwing a little tantrum,â he said casually.
Mooreâs mother smiled. For some reason, Nathan felt that her smile carried a hint of pity and sarcasm.
Mooreâs mother continued, âI know my daughter best.
Sheâs always been goodânatured and gentle. She doesnât go against her nature unless something really upsets her.
If sheâs upset with you, it only means sheâs truly unhappy with you.â
Nathan fell silent for a moment, then straightened up. âYou may be her mother, but you donât love her.
You donât understand her.â
What kind of girl doesnât have temper?
To him, Isabella was no different from other pretentious women. She liked to play the game of hardâtoâget to win his affection.
å· Chapter 64 1288 Vouchert Too bad he wasnât fooled.
Mooreâs mother pressed on. âThen sheâs been cheating on you.
Do you know?â
Her words hit Nathan like a thunderclap, leaving him stunned.
âWhat did you say? Isabella is cheating?â
Nathan couldnât believe it. He thought Mooreâs mother must be mistaken.
Mooreâs mother, who was always stirring up trouble, pressed on. âYou must be mistaken. Any woman can betray her husband, but Isabella would never...â
He knew just how high Isabellaâs moral standards were.
Mooreâs mother became desperate. âSonâinâlaw, believe me, Isabella has really been unfaithful.
I went to see her today, and I saw her with another man. That man was treating her very affectionately, even helping her deal with me.â
