Chapter 42 The Thompsons’ Scheme

But after some moments of hesitation, Isabella finally fell silent.

There was no rush when it came to Betty’s matter.

By the time the evening came, Isabella suddenly sensed that something was wrong.

Because she realized that her bedroom had been moved from the master bedroom to Draxton’s room. Isabella was speechless.

With a serious expression, Draxton said, “We’re legally married, and we even have a child. Sleeping together shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

She said nothing.

This man was indeed a fearless one.

Seeing that Isabella said nothing as she looked at him with a dazed expression, Draxton raised his eyebrow and said, “Five years ago, you were so bold. You even made the move yourself. Why are you so timid now?”

Isabella looked at him in surprise and asked, “Mr. Lockwood, do you want me to… treat you like I did five years ago?”

Draxton fell silent.

His ears turned red. But his face became stern as he said, “We’re already married. I think you should address me differently.”

Isabella pondered for a moment and called out, “Draxton.”

The corners of Draxton’s taut, straight lips curved upward slightly.

Being with her had always felt comfortable. She would always make him feel at ease.

He added, “You don’t have to treat me like you did five years ago. Instead, I’ll take the initiative now.”

Isabella was confused for a moment. It was only when she realized what he meant that she could not help but laugh.

Her almond-shaped eyes curved up. She looked at him with fascination, and her voice seemed to carry a teasing note. “Is that so?”

Although Draxton’s ears had turned crimson red, his expression was extremely solemn. “Yes.”

It was as if he was talking about a serious topic.

Isabella could not help but laugh.

She said, “Well, then… let me see how you’ll fare.”

She turned around and went into the bathroom.

Draxton’s handsome face blushed slightly. He watched her silhouette walk away while narrowing his eyes assertively.

He could never let her underestimate him.

In the eyes of the law, they were now husband and wife.

That night, both of them indulged in the ultimate form of pleasure. Only this time, they were both sober.

They were so in tune with each other that the night was beyond their expectations. But there was no doubt that the next morning, Draxton looked at Isabella with even more passion.

Isabella was a little sore the next day. Feeling quite upset, she did not look at him.

She was not angry at how rough he had been last night. She was upset at how she had lost to him. She felt humiliated.

No, she had to get back at him tonight.

After breakfast, Isabella took Ricky to the kindergarten.

After the incident with Alan and Martin, when it came to sending and picking up Ricky, Isabella no longer wanted to hire someone as a driver.

She had nothing to do, after all, and she preferred to do it herself.

When Isabella sent Ricky to the kindergarten, she did not notice that a red sports car was parked across the street. Two people were sitting inside.

They were none other than Samantha and Mr. Thompson.

Samantha, who had lost to Isabella previously, had been looking for a chance to get back at her.

But as it turned out, she could not even figure out Isabella’s whereabouts.
