The devilish man did not look back, but the two beauties turned to Tabella with a smile. Isabella stuck out her tongue and made a face. The beauties were amused, yet they kept up with that man closely

Isabella wore a grin as she watched him approach, thinking. This is so picturesque!

“Are you that glad to see me, Mrs. Murray?” Clayton stroked her head dosingly.

Isabella pushed his hand away, stood over in his spot, and pointed at herself, “Check this out. Don’t I look good in the sunshine?”

Clayton narrowed his eyes and nodded. “You’re beautiful”

Isabella jumped on the spot and turned her back. “Shall we get going?”

Clayton strode over and caught up with her, placing her hand over his arm.

“You must feel happy today” Clayton felt that Isabella seemned different that day, appearing to be over the moon.

Isabella held his arm and walked on the brick–patterned path, swaying all the way. “Mm. Owen came so audition for the female lead role today. Should she succeed, shell likely rise to fame. I’m so happy for her”

Clayton opened the car door, let Isabella in, and helped her fasten her seat belt.

“You’re that close with Ms. Carry!” Clayton revved up the engine.

Clayton put one hand on the steering wheel while caressing Isabella’s head with the other. “You were sick?”

Isabella nodded. looking gloomy. “Yeah I was ill for more than a year.

Chyton exerted more strength unwittingly. “What kind of illness? How did you end up with a?”

Isabella shook her head, and Clayton took his hand off

“My mom passed, and I was heartbroken, but my dad re–married. I vied with Yvonne for a toy back then and fell down the stairs and hit my head. I broke my legs, too, and spent more than a year recuperating Isabella lowered her voice.

Clayton felt heartbroken and grabbed Isabella’s hand

He feared that ber fall might not have been an accident.

It was that year that he lost contact with her. It turned out that she had been ill, yet be suspected that somebody had a hand in it.

He could only imagine what Isabella had gone through those lonely days.

His phone suddenly chimed.
