When their food arrived, Bianca took a sip of her red wine and then said to Natalie, “I’m reminding you
now, you better keep a clear head.”
She was referring to the matter with Reba.
Both Natalie and Bianca had expected Reba to approach Natalie after the revtion of Natalie’s
rtionship with Stephen.
However, they didn’t expect her toe so quickly.
“If she had even a slight liking for you before, she wouldn’t being to you now, right?”
Bianca’s words implied that Reba’s sudden interest was not about Natalie but something else.
Natalie responded, “It’s because of Isabe.”
“Isabe?”
“Isabe has gonepletely blind, right? Somehow, the story about Isabe and Ivan has spread in
high
society. The Johnson family was concerned about the impact, so they had to bring Isabe back.”
“So you mean Reba is worried that Cedric will get together with Isabe?”
“Yes.”
Bianca scoffed. “This old hag! I should’ve known.”
“And I’m guessing there have been some problems with the Lambert family!”
Otherwise, why would Reba be so anxious?
Bianca eximed, “My goodness, it’s chaotic enough!”
Indeed, if Reba’s concern was only about Cedric and Isabe, she could have directly sealed the
deal
with the Lambert family
Instead, she approached Natalie. This indicated that while she was on guard against Isabe, she
couldn’t find a suitable solution for the other issue.

With Stephen as her support, she was the best option for Reba.

Christina had always liked Cedric, Natalie had warned Cedric about it from the beginning, but that

Cedric had scolded her, and she hadn’t brought it up since.

Natalie was confident in this.
“It’s like she’s obsessed with Cedric! There’s something seriously wrong with her. Don’t be foolish and
get
involved with them again, okay? Stay away from her!” Bianca said in obvious concern.
Over the years, Christina had done many things against Natalie behind her back. Natalie was well
aware
of it
“Don’t worry. I’m not that stupid. Why would I choose to suffer in the Johnson family when I’m living
such
a carefree life now? I wouldn’t do that unless I’ve gone crazy!!” Natalie replied.
“That’s reassuring to hear,” Bianca said, finally feeling relief.
Natalie thought for a moment and then looked at Bianca. “But I’m quite satisfied with Reba’s attitude
today.”
“Feeling relieved?” Bianca asked.
“Yeah,” Natalie replied. It was indeed a relief. Making Reba bow down wasn’t an easy feat. Even
though Natalie had severed ties with the Johnson family, seeing Reba concede brought her a sense
of
satisfaction.
As Reba had warned before, it was best not to be delusional!
Bianca couldn’t help but ask, “By the way, how is Isabe doing in the Johnson family now?”
Looking at Natalie’s cheerful demeanor, she couldn’t resist asking.
“Not good,” Natalie replied.
It didn’t take much imagination to figure out that things weren’t going well. With Christina’s presence
and
her suspicion about Isabe’s feelings for Cedric, the care Isabe received would surely be
memorable.

“That’s true, you’re a big shot now!” Bianca teased her.
Natalie rolled her eyes at Bianca!
In Bianca’s eyes, Natalie is lucky. Without Stephen, her separation from Cedric would have been the
beginning of hardship.
Isabe’s hatred towards Natalie aimed to drag her into the mud
If Natalie didn’t have Stephen’s support, it was evident that there would have been many

Back at the Johnson Manor, Christina’s expression changed when she returned and heard that
Reba
had gone to see Isabe. She handed her bag and coat to Wanda before heading to the guest room.
Isabe had a lot ns on her mind, and Christina needed to be cautious.
Outside the guest room, Christina heard Reba’s stern voice from inside, “You’re her sister?! What
are
you up to?”
Isabe remained silent.
“Tell me the truth! Did youe to Verde City just to get revenge on her?!” Reba’s anger escted
as
she spoke.
This was unbelievable!
Inside the guest room, Isabe’s face turned pale.
“I want to see Ced. Ced… Isabe began.
“Shut up!”
When Isabe mentioned Cedric, a fierce glint shed in Reba’s eyes. She stood up and red at
Isabe.
“Be a good girl and stay put. Our family won’t mistreat you, but if you dare harbor any unnecessary
thoughts… Don’t me me for retaliating

her feeling helpless, like she was worthless and incapable of doing anything
When Reba emerged, she saw Christina outside.
“When did youe back?”
“Just now.”
“Come with me.” Reba decided after some thought.
Christina obediently nodded.
In front of Reba, Christina always behaved obediently. Back in the main building, the two of them
went to the study. Wanda saw them entering and greeted them with a cheerful smile, especially when
she
noticed Christina.
Sensing Reba’s bad mood, Christina chose to ignore her.
As soon as the door to the study closed, Reba said, “Immediately find a house in the state of
Sapphire. Also, arrange for servants and everything else!”
“What do you mean, Mom?” Christina asked.
“Send Isabe to live in Sapphire!”
Reba thought for a moment. In her current state, Isabe was definitely not suitable to remain at the
Johnson Manor.
The negative impact was too significant.
Nnever in her wildest dreams would she have imagined Isabe to be Natalie’s sister.
The more she thought about it, the more frustrated she becamel
Being as clever as she was, Reba had experienced many ups and downs in the Johnson family

Verde City.
At this moment, any gratitude Reba felt toward Ivan evaporated. Instead, all she could think of was
the potential trouble Isabe might bring to the Johnson family.
“Mom, what happened? Christina, appearing as if she knew nothing, approached.
From Christina’s perspective, keeping Isabe under her watchful eyes was the safest option,<pnced at Christina and said, “Isabe is Natalie’s sister. Did you know about this?
