Isabella curled up in the corner of the balcony, with her phone beside her and a webpage still open. The light from the phone screen shimmered alongside the starlight. However, it couldn’t illuminate the surroundings.

He thought that if he showed off his affection with Victoria, Isabella would still get jealous and go crazy like before. But Isabella didn’t show any reaction at all.
