After the Secret Wedding Rise of My Queen

Chapter 5 Xander's Ex-Fiancee

This woman really has some nerve! It's one thing for me to be here, but my brother is also here.

Isabel rolled her eyes. With her stunning looks and killer figure, any other guy would be staring at her. But he acted like even glancing her way might give him eye problems.

"Fine, I'll just assume you trust me then. I'm heading back to my room." Isabel adjusted her suit and, with a swish of her long legs, headed upstairs.

As she walked, she thought about the situation. That item was definitely in the Bennett villa, but its exact location was still unclear.

It wasn't her fault. The Bennett villa was massive, about the same size as a royal palace she had visited in another country.

With such a vast place, finding that item wasn't going to be a quick task.

And now that she had arrived, she couldn't make any big moves or she might raise suspicion. For now, it was better to keep a low profile. The night went by without any issues.

The following morning, as Isabel was getting up, a maid came in with a few outfits.

"Madam, Mr. Xander had these clothes prepared for you."

"Clothes for me?" Isabel was a bit surprised but then figured Xander probably didn't want her wearing his shirts anymore. He must be a real clean freak!

After Isabel got dressed and opened her door, she overheard the maid who brought her the clothes and another maid talking. "That's her. So shameless! Trying to get into Mr. Xander's bed."

"Her face really has a seductive look to it."

"Yeah, if you ask me, that face of hers is definitely fake!"

"Totally."

Isabel ignored their comments and calmly walked downstairs, passing right by the two maids.

Annoyed by being ignored, the two maids decided to confront her.

"I suggest you leave before it's too late. If Ms. Lawson finds out you're married to Mr. Xander, you're going to have a hard time." Isabel stopped and turned to look at them.

"Oh, we'll see about that when she arrives."

Then, Isabel didn't spare them another glance and left the villa.

The two maids were furious.
