Chapter 419 Escalation Of Conflict

Bella scoffed, "Why on earth is she joining an old friends' reunion? She doesn't even belong here."

Isla?

Lenora was puzzled, could it be the Isla she knew?

Following that, Bella said, "Fay, later you'll come with me to the private room next door."

"What's wrong?"

"Axel is here, and Adonis and the others are welcoming him."

Jermaine had mentioned this to Bella before, but she hadn't expected such a coincidence. They were at the same club, even in adjacent private rooms. If it hadn't been for spotting that fool, Isla, she would have remained completely unaware. "All right, I understand."

Lenora understood. She recalled her conversation a few days ago with Ezekiel. Ezekiel had expressed his concern about how she was adapting to life in Fairlake, even mentioning that he would be visiting the city in a few days. Meanwhile, at the booth next door.

A group of young people of similar ages were gathered around a round table, upon which a lavish feast was laid out.

"Come on, Ezekiel, let's have a drink," Wesley said, filling up the glass with a smile on his face.

"Come."

"Come, Ezekiel, it's been a while since we last met. This time, we must have a good drink," Jermaine said with a laugh.

He had consumed quite a bit to drink, his face already tinged with a hint of flush.

Others around raised their glasses in a toast to Ezekiel.

"Enough."

After downing a glass of wine, Ezekiel immediately waved his hand. "Just got off the plane, I really can't handle another drink." "Ezekiel, this won't do."

"Hahaha, Ezekiel, Jermaine said you couldn't do it! Aren't you going to prove him wrong?"

Just then, Isla walked in. "Prove what?"

"It's nothing," Wesley replied with a smile.
