226 She Had to Fight
âI know!â
Angelina put her arm around Isabellaâs shoulder. âYou are so cute. How can you be so honest? Everyone has problems. If you donât want to talk about them now, donât talk about them until you feel the time is right. But I must warn you, those three girls are bad girls, and though they gave up today, they will certainly make trouble for you again.â
Isabella looked at Angelina, moved.
âDonât worry. If they bother you again, tell me! Iâm on your side!â
Angelina tapped Isabellaâs lovingly. âHowever, in return, you have to keep a secret for me!â
Isabella immediately smiled and said, âYou are not pregnant, are you?â
Angelina laughed loudly,
âYou found it! But there is no other way. I want to go back to Peace City. This is the best way to trick Joseph. Anyway, heâs not omnipotent!â
Isabella smiled. âI will keep it a secret for you, but I think you wonât stay here for long?â
.....
âItâs very easy to stay here forever.â Angelina said without hesitation, âAs long as I call my man back, we can have kids at any time!â
Isabella paused and her face turned red. âOkay...â
Angelina laughed again. âLook at your face!â
Angelina pinched Isabellaâs face, âHow about Joseph? Is he good? Tell me, I like gossips!â
Isabella instantly felt her head heat up. Just as she was at a loss on what to say, she suddenly heard Josephâs voice, âWhy donât you point-blank ask me?â
His cold voice seemed to freeze the steaming food. The two raised their heads and saw Josephâs handsome but unhappy face.
Isabella opened her mouth awkwardly. âWhy are you here...â
Angelina immediately giggled. âWell, since I got Isabella together with me, itâs much easier to find you!â
As she spoke, she pointed to the seat opposite her. âTake a seat!â
Joseph looked around in disdain. âWhy donât you want a private room? Itâs crowded here.â
âI like lively places!â
âThen go over there yourself.â
Joseph pulled Angelina up and sat beside Isabella.
Angelina smiled ambiguously. âYou two are really close.â
Isabella scratched her knees and sneaked a glance at Joseph.
She had already had hope for Joseph. Yesterday, when she heard Angelina say that he had never had a true girlfriend, she instantly felt that his image in her mind had changed dramatically. When she looked at him, there was a hint of adoration...
Isabella didnât expect that her glance with love was noticed by Joseph. He turned his head and asked, âWhat did you call me here for?â
Although his tone was as indifferent as usual, Isabella could feel a trace of concern.
However, she still asked doubtfully, âI didnât call you...â
âYes, you did it!â Angelina immediately said excitedly, âYou got bullied in his territory and almost went to jail. Why donât you find him and complain?â
Joseph frowned. âWhatâs wrong?â
Isabella did not want to bother Joseph with such a small matter. She shook her head. âItâs nothing, just a misunderstanding.â
As she spoke, she hurriedly picked up food for Joseph like a good wife. âYou have work to do later. Help yourself.â
Joseph suddenly put down his chopsticks. Isabella realized that she had been distracted, and had actually done something very silly.
She forgot to use the public chopsticks. Instead, she used her chopsticks to pick up food for Joseph.
No wonder he put down his chopsticks. As a neat freak, he wouldnât accept...
âIâm sorry, Iâll get you a new one...â
Before she finished, Joseph grabbed her wrist and said, âIsabella, can you be careful? Who bullied you? Donât you have a brain in your head? How could you get bullied every day?â
Isabella felt the warmth of Josephâs hand and blinked playfully. âWhy donât you eat those before I answer you?â
Joseph was speechless.
Although Joseph was called over by Angelina for lunch, he only stayed for 20 minutes because of work. Even so, he never complained about Angelinaâs behavior.
After a sumptuous lunch, Isabella said goodbye to Angelina and returned to school alone.
However, her heart was always warm and filled with happiness.
Although she had yet to meet Josephâs parents, for now, everyone in the Wilson family was very kind to her. Their strong personality had a great influence on her. She even dared to offend people she was usually reluctant to offend.
She simply felt that since Angelina was willing to give her such strong support, she had to fight.
For someone who grew up with domestic violence and was extremely insecure, having someone to back her up was a wonderful feeling...
Isabella couldnât stop thinking if she could have Josephâs love someday, marry him and live under his protection...
Isabella was so happy that she trembled. Then, she took the photo of Slike and kissed it again and again. âDad! You must be praying for me up above, right? Youâre teaching me to be optimistic, right? Iâll buy a photo frame for you today!â
Isabella was happy and went to school...
Not far away, a frustrated look peeped out of the half-open window of a white sedan.
In the afternoon class, Rosy called her.
Isabella frowned and guessed that it was one of the three girls told on her. She sighed helplessly and then sent a message back to Rosy to tell her that she was in class.
Undoubtedly Rosy immediately told her to call her back after the class.
After class, Isabella stood at the door and thought it over. Then she called Rosy.
âIsabella, who are you with this morning?â
She asked with an arrogant voice as usual.
Isabella scratched her head and made up her answer. âI donât her name. I only know that she is rich.â
âA rich woman! How did you know her?â
âShe had a stomachache, no one was around, so I helped her to the hospital. Then she was very grateful, invited me to dinner, and bought me something.â Isabella was full of lies.
Rosy could do nothing about a strangerâs help, so she said angrily, âYou better not lie, otherwise I will tell father that you are with hooligans!â
Isabella pretended to be speechless and said, âYou can ask Dorothy and the others. That woman is much richer than them. If I never did her a favor, how could she do me one?â
