Chapter 57

Observing Gwendolyn’s determined expression, Bernard eventually nodded. “All right then, follow me to the study. We need to establish. some rules. If you fail to adhere to them, I might just disown you for reall” he said.

Gwendolyn’s eyes brightened. She replied, “Okay, you set the rules, and I’ll follow them.”

She collapsed again just before standing. Andrew immediately reached out to support her. Gwendolyn said with a grin, “Andrew, my legs are numb”

Bernard turned to look at them from the front and said, “Andrew, bring her here!”

Isabella, who was eavesdropping, was finally relieved.

Janelle smiled and said, “Look, I told you everything was fine.”

Isabella breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Mr. Carey was terrifying”

“Gwen has never been worried. On the contrary, you seemed quite jittery, Janelle said, shaking her head.

Isabella smiled shyly. The Carey family meant a lot to her, so naturally, she felt anxious and hoped they could reconcile and regain the

original harmony.

Janelle then urged Isabella to take care of her body and not to exhaust herself. Isabella nodded at her advice. While Gwendolyn often found her mother’s reminders nagging, no one knew how much Isabella yearned for such care. Janelle did all that out of love.

Janelle and Bernard had always liked Isabella because she always agreed with them and listened attentively, unlike their rebellious

daughter.

Isabella, Gwendolyn, and Andrew left the Carey residence in excellent spirits. Tension had arisen among the Carey family ever since Gwendolyn began her acting career, causing concern for both isabella and Andrew.

Andrew pinched the back of Gwendolyn’s neck and said, “Storm clouds have finally dispersed. You can work without worry. Isabella doesn’t need to be concerned anymore.”

Isabella nodded repeatedly and replied, “Indeed. Andrew, thank you so much for today. If I were on my own, I don’t think I could have lifted

the mood.”

Gwendolyn struggled to break free of Andrew’s grip while saying, “Thanks to you this time. I’ll treat you to a big meal one day.”

“Really? Then I want to have a big feast,” Andrew replied, laughing.

Looking at Andrew, Isabella suddenly thought of Victor. She wanted to thank Victor, too.

However, she felt that Gwendolyn would not acknowledge Victor.

“Hey! What are you thinking, silly?” Gwendolyn asked while patting Isabella.

“Huh? Well, Gwen and Andrew, why don’t you come to my house this weekend?” Isabella blurted out.

Andrew and Gwendolyn were stunned.

They said in unison, “Okay!”

Gwendolyn wanted to meet Clayton, her best friend’s partner, as she had some advice for him. She felt that the last time they met, she was
