Chapter 94

Next day, early in the morning.

25% 12:10 Everyone in the Landor’s house was having breakfast when the housekeeper reported that Miss Smith, who had come yesterday, was at the gate.

“Isabella?” Leo felt delighted.

Just as he was about to let Isabella in, Ben said with a frown, “Go out and tell her that the Landor family hasn’t prepared breakfast for her.”

“Eh…” The housekeeper was at a loss.

“Go tell her what you were told,” Ben said expressionlessly.

“Ben!” Leo was flustered.

Ben glanced at him with a poker face, sending a chill through Leo.

“That’s good!

I think Isabella will finally give up on Ben this time after knowing that he’s so heartless.

Later, I’ll go comfort her alone.

Then, I’ll have a chance of winning her heart.”

Thinking of this, Leo didn’t say anything.

Thus, the housekeeper went to tell Isabella as he had been told.

Isabella’s mouth twitched.

She thought to herself, does he think I came to the Landor’s house for breakfast?

Ben sounded like he condescended to me!

But if he thought he could make me give up by doing this, then he was very wrong!

I know Ben has always been like this.

JM M N 25% 12:11 In my previous incarnation, I saw he had only been good to Susan and no other woman was worthy of his attention.

If Ben fell for my seduction so easily, then he would no longer be a precious treasure for 1. me.

Since I was given the chance to be reborn, I must be God’s favored one!

A perfect man like Ben Landor is destined to be mine!

Isabella smiled at the housekeeper and said unhurriedly, “Please tell Mr. Landor that I’m here to make an apology with a gift for offending him and Mrs. Landor yesterday, and I’ve already had breakfast.”

The housekeeper returned to pass on the message to Ben.

“Oh, Ben, she didn’t bother us that much yesterday. She even prepared a gift for you to apologize for upsetting you,” Penelope said as she let out a soft cough. “I think we should let her in.”

“Ben, the Smith family is one of the top families in Riowert. Shouldn’t we show some respect?” Leo had no idea why Ben disliked Isabella so much out of no reason.

Leo thought Isabella hadn’t done anything wrong yesterday.

“The Smith family?” Ben didn’t seem to care. “What does it have to do with me?”

He didn’t want to show Isabella any respect at all.

Susan glanced at Ben and suggested, “How about we let her in?”

Ben gave her a confused look and asked, “Why should we see her? She’s annoying.”

Susan said with a smile, “She’s right outside the gate. If we don’t see her now, we’ll still have to see her when go out later. We can’t just hide in the house to avoid seeing her, right?”

Since Ben had made his position clear, Susan was at ease.

No matter what tricks Isabella resorted to, as long as Ben didn’t take the bait, she would never have her way.

“How dare she refuse to leave?” Ben said coldly, “Then, I…”

“Alright.” Susan felt amused. She held Ben’s hand and said, “She just admires you. She didn’t do anything wrong. Don’t be so mean to her.”

Susan just felt Isabella had acted a little inappropriately yesterday. After all, with Ben’s terrifying appearance, Susan didn’t think Isabella had an intention of seducing him.

Hearing Susan’s persuasion, Ben reluctantly said to the housekeeper, “Alright, we might as well see her once. Please lead her in.”

The housekeeper hurried to the gate.

Soon, he led Isabella in.

Compared to her affected naive look yesterday, Isabella looked more elegant like a dignified noble lady.

She said gracefully, “I’m sorry, Mrs. Landor. Yesterday, I was too excited to keep my composure when I finally had a glimpse of my idol, so I’m here to apologize for my inappropriate acts.”

As Isabella spoke, she motioned for the maid to hand in the gift.

It was probably because Isabella had thought about Ben’s personality, she didn’t pay much attention to him this time. Also, the gift she prepared was for Susan.

The gift was in an exquisite box.

Susan opened the box and was slightly shocked.

There was a jade bracelet lying quietly in the box.

It was indeed a generous gift.

Judging from the lustrous jade, the bracelet was worth at least a million dollars.

-Lad the hav hack and said. “I can’t accept it.”

“This is my expression of apology to you, Mrs. Landor. Please accept it,” Isabella said sincerely.

“Besides, this gift is not valuable to the Landor family.”

Without waiting for Susan to refuse again, Isabella said, “What’s more, I hope that Mrs. Landor can do me a favor.”

Since Isabella was so polite and humble, Susan couldn’t help but soften her tone.

She hesitated for a moment and asked, “How can I help you?”

She decided that she would never agree if Isabella made any outrageous request.

Isabella said with a smile, “Coraland has been thriving over the years. I was shocked by the prosperity of Anaville when I first came. Throughout the entire Riowert, no city could be comparable to it. I’m reluctant to leave since I came.”

“You’re welcome to have fun here for a few more days,” Susan still replied politely though she didn’t understand what Isabella meant.

Isabella quickly added, “Not only for fun, but I also want to stay here permanently. I plan to start a technology company in Anaville.”

“A technology company?” Leo was cheered up by her words. “The Storm Group is also in this field.

Isabella, I hope we can cooperate in the future.”

Ben narrowed his eyes as he thought, “Cooperate? Did I agree with that?”

Isabella could sense a flicker of coldness in Ben’s eyes, so she was secretly angry at Leo’s disruption.

She retorted to Leo righteously, “The cooperation is for a win–win situation. But how can my start–up company be qualified to cooperate with the Storm Greup? I can’t overestimate myself to make such an imposition.”

Leo’s excited smile froze on his face.

Isabella ignored the change in his expression and continued to say to Susan, “Mrs. Landor, I have to build connections with the people in Anaville if I want to stay here. Thus, I plan to hold a banquet three days later. Mrs. Landor, I hope you can do me the honor of attending. my banquet. After all, you are a member of the Landor family. Once you come, the upper JM M class in Anaville will probably be willing to acknowledge me.”

*四区24% 12:11 Isabella kept pleading, “Mrs. Landor, you only need to show up there. It won’t bother you.”

Susan hesitated for a moment. She felt that there was no need to continue arguing with. Isabella, but if she agreed to attend the banquet, Ben would most likely accompany her there.

Both she and Ben disliked such occasions. She thought it over and felt there was no point in forcing herself and Ben to attend such an occasion for a stranger like Isabella.

Susan raised her eyebrows and closed the box before she said, “I’m sorry, but I don’t like that kind of occasion. I’m afraid you’ll have to take this gift back.”

Susan said in a soft but firm voice.

Isabella’s smile immediately froze on her lips.

As the daughter of the Smith family, Isabella couldn’t believe Susan, who was of humble birth, still not appreciate it even when Isabella deigned to speak to her.

Isabella thought resentfully, “As expected, she’s not worthy of being Ben Landor’s wife at all!

If I wasn’t reborn a few months later than Susan Miller’s appearance, she wouldn’t have had the chance to be Mrs. Landor!”
