202 Going Abroad Together

On the other side, Rebecca brought Christina to Sapphire.

Isabella looked even thinner, and her complexion was somewhat pale.

Rebecca was originally a cold–hearted person, and any gratitude towards Isabella was completely

obliterated due to the current situation.

At this moment, a few people sat in the living room of the apartment. The maid, seeing Rebecca,

nervously poured coffee and respectfully stood behind Isabella.

Sensing the maid’s fear of Rebecca, Isabella spoke gently, “Go to the kitchen.”

“Yes, Ms. Morgan!” The maid gratefully glanced at Isabella and swiftly escaped into the kitchen like a

frightened bird.

Only Rebecca, Isabella, and Christina remained in the living room. Of the three, Rebecca had the worst

expression. She picked up the cup in front of her and took a sip.

Then, she asked in a gloomy tone, “What have you done?”

Rebecca sounded like she was interrogating Isabella!

Initially, when Rebecca learned that Isabella was Natalie’s sister, and considering Natalie’s attitude.

towards Isabella, she didn’t approve of this matter being made public..

Previously, Natalie’s divorce from Cedric was because of Isabella. If the fact that Isabelle was Natalie’s

sister was exposed, it wouldn’t be good for the Johnson family’s reputation.

Now… it was all over the place!

Rebecca was someone who valued face, and she couldn’t stand those strange looks.

“Aunt, I don’t know what you’re talking about,”

Isabella actually didn’t know what was happening outside.

Her collaboration with Christina was, in fact, optional. She would know Cedric’s whereabouts from

Christina and when he was with Natalie. Then, Isabella would call Cedric and cause Natalie to feel

uneasy.

Bang!

Rebecca slammed her cup heavily on the coffee table. This movement clearly showed her restrained

anger!

Tabelle, I used to sympathize with what happened to you, but now…!”

Rebecca didn’t continue with the following words,

But from her tone, it was clear.

She could no longer feel any pity for Isabella on Ivan’s behalf.

She… was disappointed!

Christina looked at how angry Rebecca was and said, “Mom, don’t be angry. Maybe this is all a

misunderstanding?”

“A misunderstanding?!”

It would have been better not to mention that it had been a misunderstanding!

Saying it was one only angered Rebecca further.

During the time of Natalie and Cedric’s divorce, nothing had happened. Now that they were just starting

to get along a bit, complications arose?!

Rebecca wouldn’t believe it if Isabella confessed to having no plans to marry Cedric!

Standing up, Rebecca looked at Isabella with a sharp and sinister gaze.

“Isabella, I am truly disappointed in you. Since I’m here today, I’ll be frank with you!”

“Don’t play these tricks anymore. Our family can make you prosperous for a lifetime. But if you want to

become the young mistress of the Johnson family like your sister, you’re dreaming of something that

can never come true!”

汕

In her words, there was a tinge of indignity!

Isabella’s face instantly turned paler.

God knew she hated being compared to Natalie, especially now when Rebecca was openly saying she

wasn’t as good as Natalie.

The hatred in her heart surged like a tidal wave!

“Aunti

Call me Madam Johnson!”

alla and Christina were both shocked and speechless!

arly, they didn’t expect Rebecca’s attitude to be so icy, Isabella’s face drained of color,

Christina stepped forward and grabbed Rebecca’s arm. “Mom, please stop!”

Rebecca also noticed Isabella’s discomfort!

She opened her mouth to say something, but she stopped.

In the end, she said, “I’ve said what I needed to today, Isabella. I hope you can show some self–

respect and cherish the life you have now.”

Having said that, Rebecca turned and left, not wanting to see her any longer.

Her departing figure appeared so proud, leaving Isabella with a sense of fierceness.

Christina watched Rebecca leave and then turned to the visibly pale Isabella.

She said, “It’s been hard for her lately.”

This statement could be considered the best comfort for Isabella.

Isabella hated Natalie. As long as Natalie didn’t have a good life, she could find some solace!

“What I wanted is far from being achieved.”

“Isaac is back. When he was preparing to operate on you, his fiancée was kidnapped! All evidence

points. to Natalie. Do you know what to do?” Christina quickly said.

Isabella nodded.

With that, no matter what Natalie did now, she couldn’t escape responsibility!

Christina hurriedly left.

In the cold living room, only Isabella remained. She sat in the wheelchair in a daze, feeling the

darkness around her.

This darkness made her suffocate and intensified her hatred for Natalie.

The maid came out from the kitchen, looking at Isabella with eyes full of pity.

“Miss, how could Madam Johnson treat you like that?”

In the maid’s heart, Isabella was a good person. Initially, they thought it would be easy to take

advantage of her blindness.

But after getting to know her, they couldn’t bear to trouble her. She was always protecting those around

How could they not take good care of her?

Isabella patted the back of the mald’s hand to reassure her, saying with a helpless tone, “In wealthy

families, they place great importance on one’s background.”

Isn’t character important? Your sister is…”

“Enough!” Isabella interrupted the maid, making it seem like she was defending Natalie!

But in reality, she was disgusted with anyone saying that Natalie was her sister.

So what if Natalie didn’t acknowledge her?

She didn’t care to acknowledge Natalle eitherl

Just thinking about her experiences from childhood to now, she wished she could tear Natalie apart

bon by bone! They were both children of the same father.

Why was Natalie the only one who could grow up peacefully, even when she was also alone and

without a family?

Thinking of Natalie’s carefree life, Isabella’s hatred intensified!

Natalie and Irwin had dinner together. Leon followed closely behind her and sat at the adjacent table to

avoid disturbing her.

Natalie raised her wine glass and took a sip.

“Mr. Frazier.”

“Hmm?”

Natalie looked at the man across from her, momentarily unsure what to say. The oppressive

atmosphere surrounding her was evident, especially when it concerned Cedric.

She truly didn’t know what he would do next. While Stephen wasn’t afraid of Cedric, if Irwin got

involved…

That… was something she didn’t want to see!

She didn’t want to involve more people in the matters between her and Cedric.

However, Irwin spoke up, “Thinking about Cedric?”

has never believed in you.”

She knew that he had never believed in her. If he had believed In her just once, they wouldn’t have.

reached this point.

This time, his attitude was the prelude to an even bigger storm.

“So, what did you want to say?”

“You should be a bit more cautious on your end too.”

When it came to feelings, Natalie was hesitant to say more. Irwin was a dominant figure in Verde City.

If she said any words of concern and tried to distance herself from him, it would only worsen the

situation.
