Isabella was so shocked she almost fell off the steps. Victor, in white, stood in the living room with his arms around his shoulders, gazing at her. Isabella stood firm and looked at him. He was a little different from the previous day. His hair was tied up and not draped over his shoulders as it had been the day before

Strangely, such long hair didn’t make him look feminine at all. Whether loose or tied up, it was strangely attractive.

Victor looked her up and down “I can’t understand why he likes such a childish brat, he said.

Isabella stood still on the stairs, blinking her big eyes. Does he mean Clayton‘ she thought

“Are you jealous?” Habella asked.

Isabella suddenly realized that Victor didn’t like being called pretty, so she smiled wickedly and said. “Pretty can’t be used to describe men, but it th you perfectly! You’re prettier dun komen.”

“You!” Victor uttered as he hurried up the stairs.

Isabella giggled and turned to run upstairs, taunting. “Pretty man”

She ran and looked back at Victor, who was chasing her. Suddenly, she hit Clayton and instinctively leaned backward.

Clayton put his arms around her to prevent her from falling down the stairs. “He careful,” he said.
