Chapter 269

Nevertheless, he was turned down so flatly.

Naturally, this made him angry.

He could not understand why Isaac was making such a big deal out of last night’s incident. They were both able to escape the

hole unharmed. And Isaac's relationship with that woman was still unknown to everyone. Maybe she was really Isaac’s girlfriend.

In any case, it would not be Long before he got sick of her. Eventually, no one would remember who she was.

Then, it was over.

Isaac knew that what happened last night was not that big of a deal. That was why he did not want to argue with Leland about it.

Wynter returned to the office and reported, “I’ve sent Mr. Perry away, sir.”

Isaac hummed in acknowledgment.

“By the way, sir, should we continue keeping an eye on your wife?” Wynter asked.

When Isaac invited Camila to the dinner party with him the day before, he briefly instructed the people keeping an eye on her to

halt their duties.

For this matter, Wynter required an order from Isaac before making a move.

Isaac gave it some thought before saying, “No.”

He did not want to force her to be with him anymore.

He would like it better if she chose to stay with him of her own accord.

Leland thought his daughter would get over what happened yesterday after some time had passed, but he was mistaken.

After some investigation, Marlowe learned that Camila worked as a dance teacher in a dance studio.

That morning, she decided to visit her workplace.

“Elva, can | take a day off? | won't be able to make it to the dance studio today,” Camila asked Elva on the phone.

“Sure, but there’s a woman here looking for you,” Elva stated.

“Who is it?”

“| don’t know. She said she was your friend.”

Camila did not have any female friend in the city, though.

She thought for a while.

Was it the woman from last night?

“What's her name?” Camila inquired.
