Chapter 1155
Logan stood up. “Well, if you don’t mind…” In response, L gritted her teeth. She could never be as shameless as Logan was.
Turning time forward, it was finally Ernest’s birthday banquet. Logan and L went to the Constance Residence early that day, but John
wasn’t nning on an early attendance, so they yed poker while waiting.

There was a feast in the afternoon, but the Constance couple didn’t attend it. It wasn’t until nearly dusk did John drive to the Bailey Residence
with Sophia.
Logan took L there too, but they stopped outside of the residence. Before he left, Logan told L to stay in the car while he went to the
Constances’ car. First, they’d show themselves, then Logan would take L in. In response, L waved him away. “You go do your stuff. I’ll
be fine.”
Logan stared at her seriously for a moment. “Wait for me.”
Then, Logan went into the Bailey Residence with the Constance couple. Man, that old git spent a lot on this. This ce is really packed. Once
the Constance couple made their appearance, someone went to report it to Elder Mr. Bailey, and they mentioned Logan.
The old man was looking outside the window, and he smiled.
“It doesn’t matter whoes with them. Nothing will change.” Once his subordinate made his leave, Elder Mr. Bailey went to Isabelle’s
room. After Isabelle was brought back, she was confined to this room, and she was allowed to go nowhere. Isabelle dressed herself up nicely,
and she was looking outside the window at the moment, deep in her thoughts. When Elder Mr. Bailey hade in, he locked the door. “John
and Sophia are here. Do you want to go and have a look?” Isabelle looked at him, her expression deadpan. A few secondster, Elder Mr.
Bailey said, “Isabelle, you should know you’re in the same boat as us. If we fail, then you shall fail with us.” Pursing her lips, Isabelle kept
quiet for a while. “I understand.” She had been obedienttely, seemingly being brainwashed by her grandfather. As Elder Mr. Bailey took her
downstairs, he reminded her, “You should know what you should say and what you should not.” “I understand,” Isabelle replied weakly. Elder
Mr. Bailey’s face darkened, and they went out. On this day, Ernest’s birthday banquet was held in the backyard, and it had been transformed
for the asion.
Tables dotted the field, and alcohol flowed freely. Lights dazzled the night, and everywhere the guests looked, they saw extravagant
decoration. Sophia, John, and Logan were in the crowd, and when someone hit Logan up, he’d chat with them. On the other hand, the
Constance couple were chatting with each other happily. Isabelle saw John the moment she came into the backyard. It had been a while since
she saw him, and it felt bizarre seeing him again. When John looked up while chatting with Sophia, he saw Isabelle. All he did was nod at her
before looking away. Isabelle pursed her lips and stared at Sophia. The bump on her stomach was getting obvious, and she had be
rounder than she used to be. The happy smile on her face scalded Isabelle, and she looked away quickly. Her change in expression did not
escape Elder Mr. Bailey. “See? John doesn’t care how much you sacrificed for him. He has a wife and child now. In short, a family. He has a
better life than you have. Look at you. What do you have besides us?”
