Chapter 99 Isabella turned her head with a bright smile. âTheo, you arrived just in time. Thanks to your commotion, Nathan will finally be forced to make the decision to divorce me.â
Theodore replied, âIâm afraid it wonât be that simple. The Prince may deeply love your Sis, but he refuses to divorce you no matter what...â
He fell into a moment of hesitation.
Isabella, suddenly realizing, understood that Theodore didnât understand matters of love. Complaining to him about her marital problems felt like being at a dead end.
To her surprise, Theodore showed a level of maturity beyond his years, continuing to analyze the situation. âSis, Nathan is a businessman. For him, the decision to maintain or dissolve a marriage has nothing to do with emotions. He cares about profits.
Keeping the marriage with you benefits him more than. breaking it off. Itâs that simple.â
Isabella was confused. âIn his eyes, Iâm just a useless, goodâfor- nothing. What purpose does it serve for him to keep me around?â
Theodore replied, âPeople who stand at the top wonât allow 15431 Chapter 90 11 themselves to`have any stains on their reputation. You are the savior of his âwhite moonlight.â He married you to repay you. If he divorces you now, it would only give him the reputation of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge. And... heâs more afraid of people discovering that he deceived you into marriage and exploited a weak woman. Once that butterfly effect starts, his reputation will be ruined.â
Isabellaâs eyes suddenly lit up. If she could ruin Nathanâs reputation, she would have no regrets in this life.
âHeâs a sly old fox. Thereâs no way heâd let himself fall into a trap.â
Theodoreâs gaze deepened. âSis, donât worry. Even if heâs a thousandâyearâold fox, Iâm a tenâthousandâyearâold demon. If he tries to play tricks with me, Iâll make sure he loses miserably.â
Although Isabella didnât know what kind of tricks Theodore had up his sleeve, she instinctively believed he could defeat Nathan.
âTheo, Iâm so glad to have you.â
Her gratitude to Theodore was clear in her voice, though unspoken.
Theodore, with a pained expression, said, âSis, from here on out, youâll need to play your part well. Make him choose between paying off the debts or divorcing you.â
Isabella immediately got into character. âYoung Master. Sanchez, my âselling contractâ is with you. Iâm at your service from now on.â
Theodore chuckled, âIn that case, Iâll have to trouble my âSecretary Moore.â
They exchanged a smile.
Isabella knew that her divorce from Nathan wouldnât be resolved anytime soon, but she couldnât let her career fall into disarray.
Therefore, she decided to focus on her work.
âTheo, I want to move the brand I started in Milan, âA Lifetime With You,â to the capital.â
She looked directly into Theodoreâs eyes, her gaze clear and sincere. âI want to collaborate with you.â
She knew exactly what Theodore would become in the future, and without hesitation, she added a condition: âThe bulk of the earnings will go to you.â
Theodore was momentarily stunned, stammering, âA Lifetime With You? â
He suddenly smiled gently, âSis, how do you want to collaborate?â
53 1543 Isabella understood that Theodore possessed an extraordinary business mind. Being close to him was like securing a longâterm source of income.
She lowered her own benefits with no hesitation. âTheo, Iâm Master Jasmineâs first disciple, so I could be the Design Director of the company. As for expanding the market, that will be your responsibility. As for the profits, Iâm happy to take just 10%.â
Theodore leaned forward with a devilish smile. âSis, âThea with youââwith my name in itâwhy should we split the profits so clearly? All the earnings are yours. Iâll make you the legal representative, and Iâll bear all the risks for you.â
Isabella was stunned.
Unable to help herself, she reached out and rubbed his head. âI must have picked up a big fool back then.â
Theodore burst into laughter.
He then took Isabella to a tasteful villa. As they got out of the car, an unexpected group of paparazzi appeared and began snapping photos at them with loud clicks.
In a moment of quick thinking, Isabella turned and began supporting Theodore instead.
