Chapter 482
Outside the quiet, towering wrought–iron gates of Xanthea Haven Estate, Isabe watched from a distance as Orion and Xanthea embraced lovingly amidst a sea of irises, their sweet kisses painting a scene straight out of a fairy tale, reminiscent of a prince and princess in love. Silently, she put on her sunsses.
“Xanthea,” she thought, “may your marriage be filled with joy and lifelongpanionship.”
“Who’s that over <b>there</b>?”
“I don’t know. Let’s check it out!”
Two patrolling security guards spotted her and quickly approached.
“Hello, can <b>I </b>ask who this is?”
“Just passing by.”
Before they could say more, Isabe was ready to leave. The guards exchanged a look and both stepped in front of her.
Today was Mr. and Mrs. Lockwood’s wedding day, and the estate was surrounded by top–tier security. Not a single mistake could be afforded. The person in front of them was cloaked in a baseball cap, a face mask, and sunsses; aside from her incognito state, she also seemed to have been lurking around and peeking from a distance, which was just too suspicious!
“Sorry, Miss, but we’re concerned about your identity. Could you please show us your ID?”
<b>“</b>You don’t have the right.”
“Then we’ll have to call <b>police</b>.”
One of the guards reached for the walkie–talkie to alert the estate’s staff, but Isabe quickly pulled down her mask.
Seeing her face, the guards froze.
“You are Isabe Taylor?”
e the estate
estate<b>? </b><b>Why </b><b>are </b>you standing out here?”
“Ms. <b>Taylor</b><b>? </b><b>Why </b>aren’t you inside
Isabe asked, “Can I go now?”
“Of course, of course!”
Watching her retreat, the guards were left puzzled.
“Wasn’t she here for the wedding? Why hide out here?”
<b>“</b>Could it be she didn’t have an invitation?”
“How could that be? She’s a famous star, even appeared on a show with Mrs. Lockwood. They seemed close. And there are many celebrities here today not nearly as famous as her!”
“What’s going on then? Should we tell Mr. and Mrs. Lockwood?”

“Let’s wait until the wedding’s over, and tell Mrs. Lockwood then.”
After leaving Xanthea Haven Estate, Isabe headed straight for an international flight. She spent three months abroad working on a film before finally returning home.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.
The film turned out great, and her agent arranged a celebration party for her at New Hotel.
“Isabe, take it easy on the drinks. Be careful not to get drunk.”
Wendy saw her sitting in aer, downing one drink after another and voiced her concer.
Since the end of “Adventure Blitz: Two Days, One Night” and falling out with Xanthea, Isabe had been downeast, hardly ever smiling except when on set. Now, she seemed determined to drown her sorrows in alcohol.
As Wendy put together her previous actions- mimicking Xanthea, acting tough but showing a soft heart in defending Xanthes, silently crying when Xanthea proposed to someone else, and secretly attending Xanthea’s wedding, a bold suspicion arose in her mind. Could Isabe have fallen for Xanthea?!
Coming out was one thing; after all, it wasn’t unheard of in the entertainment industry. But the issue was that Xanthea was not only a
woman but also now a married one!
And most importantly, Chairman Lockwood was the powerhouse behind Starlight Media. Bing rivals in love with him, wasn’t Isabe just setting herself up for disaster<b>?</b>
“Just leave me be. If I get drunk, 11 just head back to rest.”
Isabe pushed her away, snapping Wendy out of her wild spections.

Shaking off the absurd thoughts, Wendy said, “I’ll book a room for you at the New Hotel then, okay<b>? </b>Just in case you’re too drunk to make it back on your own
Isabe didn’t respond, so Wendy took it as a “yes” and headed downstairs.
