Chapter 254 You Ingrate

Isidora was fuming.

Watching Isidora shiver in her thin dress in the cold air, Claudia quietly pulled her car up in front of her.

"Hey, Miss Faye, hop in..."

Isidora climbed into the car. The heater was on full blast, warming her up immediately.

Claudia found a coat and draped it over Isidora's shoulders. "Well, Mr. Martin really has a cold heart, leaving such a delicate beauty behind and driving off without a second thought. He doesn't seem to know how to cherish someone at all. I mean, you're the head of finance at the Martin Group-this is just too much, isn't it?"

Claudia's words struck a chord with Isidora, when Sophia had first approached her, warning her that Chloe was not a simple woman and urging her to be cautious.

At the time, Isidora hadn't taken it seriously. She thought Chloe was unattractive and wouldn't be a threat.

The sharp contrast between her initial arrogance and her current humiliation was almost too much to bear.

She couldn't understand how Grant had so quickly forgotten the deep affection he had for her back in college.

"Claudia... I never thought Mr. Martin would leave me behind..." Isidora confided in Claudia, seeing her as a kindred spirit.

Claudia analyzed the situation for her. "Miss Faye, Mr. Martin left you here to take a taxi home-it's not without reason. You know, that woman, Chloe, comes from a very influential family. I just asked around, and her family's wealth might even rival the Martin Family's. And with the engagement between the two families... well, Mr. Martin can't afford to offend her, can he?"

"On the other hand, Mr. Martin, being the exceptional man he is, must find it painful to face Chloe's unattractive face every day. But men make choices. He knows very well

that marrying Chloe into the Martin Family will bring immense wealth."

"So, when dealing with the jealous Miss Davis, Mr. Martin has no choice but to neglect you. I can tell Mr. Martin cares about you. Otherwise, when I mentioned the sixty-six love letters, his eyes wouldn't have lit up like that."

"He's doing this to protect you. I'm close with Giselle, and I believe she's grooming you. The future CFO of the Martin Group will definitely be you."
