Isabe never imagined that she could discuss her past with Joey calmly, let alone


    receive a nonchnt smile from him.


    “| appreciate your honesty,” he said.


    Isabe forced a bitter smile. “There’s no need to hide. Imperia is neither big nor small.


    Although you can hide it for some time, you can’t hide it forever.”


    Joey nodded, and his eyes flickered slightly. “You''re right.” He stood up from his seat


    across from Isabe. After a moment of hesitation, he said, “I have something to tell


    you as well.”


    Isabe was taken aback. Then, she smiled and said, “I just had a moment of stupidity.


    You don’t have to take it so seriously.”


    Joey shook his head. “It’s better to rify some things from the beginning.”


    Jusy


    Hearing his tone, Isabe sensed that it was important, so she took it seriously.


    Just as Joey was about to speak, a loud honking sound interrupted them. Isabe was


    startled. She turned around and saw a ck Bentley parked nearby, with the driver


    honking incessantly.


    Joey stopped talking and asked Isabe, “Is that your friend?”


    Isabe twitched her mouth and was unsure of how to respond for a moment.


    The car had Seth’s license te, but she wasn’t sure if he was inside.


    Just as she hesitated, the car window suddenly rolled down. Seth’s face came into


    view, and Isabe was surprised.


    Although Seth didn’t get out of the car, his intention was clear.


    “Aren''t you going?” Joey asked.


    Isabe was already upset in the morning. Now, she was being stubborn, so she simply


    stood up.


    “Let''s walk a bit more.”


    Joey was surprised, but he soon smiled and nced into the car. Then, he followed


    Isabe as she walked ahead.


    On the other hand, Seth sat in the car and watched the duo walk further and further


    away in disbelief.


    Indeed, courage can be cultivated.


    He closed his eyes and ordered the driver, “Follow them.”


    The driver was confused but quicklyplied.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    The scene was peculiar.


    Isabe was walking under the shade of the trees, apanied by Joey, with a group


    of ck cars trailing behind. Those who walked by stole nces and wondered if


    Isabe was someone from a wealthy family out for a leisurely stroll.


    Isabe was stubborn, and so was Seth.


    This strange scene continued for an hour and a half.


    Finally, Joey put an end to it. “Isabe, you should go back and rest. Your feet aren''t


    suitable for walking for too long.”


    Isabe couldn’t help but curse inwardly. She took a sneak nce at the ck car


    behind her. If it weren’t for that idiot, | wouldn’t have walked for so long.


    Joey walked over, patted her shoulder, and said, “Get in the car. He’s been waiting for a

    long time.”


    Isabe was surprised and confused about his intentions.


    “What were you going to tell me earlier?”


    “| guess we won''t be able to discuss it today. Can we arrange another meeting?”


    Isabe felt a bit disappointed but agreed without much thought. She held her breath


    and was unwilling to amodate Seth.


    Unexpectedly, Joey turned and walked toward the ck car, opening the door for


    Isabe.


    Seth frowned, and Isabe was puzzled.


    “Sir, Isabe’s feet aren’t in great condition. She needs to rest.”

    Isabe stood by the car and heard Joey greet Seth.


    Inside the car, Seth instinctively


    wanted to retort. However, when he


    saw Isabe''s face,


    he felt it would be embarrassing to say such a thing, and this feeling of frustration


    made him very ufortable.


    He remained silent, and Isabe


    didn’t hesitate for too long before


    getting into the car.


    Then, Joey personally closed the door for them.


    The atmosphere was indescribably harmonious.

    The journey back home was silent. Neither of them uttered a word.


    Upon arriving at the vi, Isabe ignored Seth and went straight to her room.


    Seth got out of the car with a cold expression and stormed into the main hall. Hearing


    Isabe m her door shut, he let out an incredulous chuckle. Then, he walked up the


    stairs and mmed his own door shut.


    The entire vi was filled with unease.


    Isabe returned to her room, opened herptop, and reviewed the files Phoebe ha


    sent her. Then, inexplicably, she called for a meeting, leaving the entire managem


    team bewildered by her sudden inspection. Eventually, when the meeting could no


    longer continue and they could only


    stare at each other in silence, Isabe


    finally put an


    end to the chaos.
