Chapter 111

“Ben, are you finished? Where’s Miss Smith? Why hasn’t she come out yet?” Susan looked at Ben, who had emerged alone, her face wearing a puzzled expression.

Ben raised his eyebrows. “She might need more time to think things through.”

“That’s true.” Susan didn’t understand, so she said, “Marriage is a significant decision in one’s life. We really have to give her some time to contemplate.”

“What’s there to think about?” Leo was anxious. “Everyone knew what happened between her and me. If she doesn’t marry me, how can she endure such shame?”

“Yes, things had already happened. If she doesn’t marry Leo, she might remain single for the rest of her life,” Penelope said with a sense of superiority, “She is so bold. If it weren’t for her sincerity to Leo, I wouldn’t have agreed to this marriage.”

“Really?” Isabella regained her composure and came out. She happened to overhear the audacious words spoken by Penelope and Leo. She was so furious that she nearly passed

out.

Isabella pointed at Penelope with a trembling finger and said, “I’m telling you, even if I have to be single for the rest of my life, I won’t marry Leo.”

Hearing this, Penelope was unhappy. “What do you mean? You have a tarnished reputation now, and it seems that no one wants you. I kindly offered you a way out. It’s perfectly fine if you don’t want to marry Leo, but spouting nonsense like this won’t help your case. Watch out, Leo might truly decide not to marry you.”

“Isabella, don’t be willful,” Leo said. “Quick, apologize to mom.”

Leo’s behavior was as if he believed Isabella was already married to him.

Isabella was so furious that she felt like she might just burst a blood vessel.

She finally understood why Ben had chosen Leo as the instrument of revenge against her.

Leo and Penelope utterly disgusted her.

Isabella felt like she had been bitten by a snake, yet the snake still aimed to sink its fangs into her again!

“Shut up.” Isabella looked at Leo angrily. “What kind of delusion are you entertaining? In this day and age, you expect me to marry you simply because we slept? Leo, do you truly believe you deserve me?”

Leo was stunned. “Isabella, how could you say that…”

However, Penelope was completely upset now.

She suddenly grew displeased, grabbed Leo’s hand, and marched out. “Leo, let’s leave! We’re not going to marry her. The thought of her being naked in front of so many people is humiliating. Why don’t we marry a virtuous girl? Come on, let’s go. I’d like to see who else. would marry her besides you?”

Isabella was so angry that she couldn’t help shouting, “You don’t have to worry about it!”

Leo had wanted to say something more, but seeing Isabella’s attitude, he immediately held

his tongue.

Penelope was right. No one would marry Isabella except him.

Although she was so arrogant now, if he indeed chose not to marry her, it wouldn’t be long before she to cry and beg him.

With that in mind, Leo allowed Penelope to lead him away.

Isabella was still trembling with anger.

Charlie frowned.

Leo and Penelope left just like that?

Leo and Isabella weren’t in love with each other?

It seemed Isabella was not willing to marry Leo at all!

“Mr. Landor senior, I’m sorry. Penelope’s words were incredibly offensive, and I let my anger get the best of me,” Isabella said to Charlie, showing a much more gracious attitude.

Thinking about what Penelope had said, Charlie felt that Isabella shouldn’t be blamed for being angry!

Most people would have erupted in anger.
