Chapter 140 Isabel and Xander at the Hot Springs Chapter 140 Isabel and Xander at the Hot Springs Ilhat's going on?

Isabel glanced at Rachel, then at Xander's study.

Before Isabel could say anything, Rachel quickly adjusted her collar in front of her.

"Don't get the wrong idea. Nothing happened between Xan and me.

As Rachel spoke, her face turned as red as a ripe persimmon. One hand was pressed to her stomach, and she subtly trembled, her legs shaking as though she could barely stand. Anyone with eyes could see what Rachel had just been through.

Even Samuel, who had never experienced anything like this, stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

His brother actually did that to Rachel? No way. If his brother loved Rachel, they would've been happily together long ago, not waiting until Isabel showed up. Besides, he could tell his brother was genuinely serious about Isabel.

But...

"Xan... He's perfectly fine. Why would he hit me? Actually, I..."

Rachel hesitated, playing the part of someone on the verge of saying something but holding back. In her mind, she thought, I've made it so obvious now. This time, you'll have to get the wrong idea, right? "Ohhh!" Isabel nodded as if suddenly understanding. "get it now. No wonder you're disheveled, trembling like that, and holding your stomach. So, you purposely undressed to seduce Xander, and when he got 1/4

But, when she thought it through, Isabel's explanation was surprisingly clear and logical. +10 Free Coins
