Chapter 399: Isabella鈥檚 Self-Blame

    Emanuele was so powerful, he could protect her and shield her from facing those awkward situations. Isabe thought to herself, perhaps she could really walk alongside Emanuele from now on? Even if the future might be cruel, and she might suffer more pain than now, at least, for the moment, they could be happy together. “Yes, Emanuele, you’re right. It was myck of confidence in you that made me consider divorce. I should have been firmer,” Isabe admitted.


    Seeing Isabe’s softened attitude, Emanuele was pleased. Finally, Isabe no longer wanted to escape him or leave him like before, which relieved Emanuele. He couldn’t resist the urge to hug and kiss Isabe. As his actions grew more intense, and Isabe could feel his body’s response, she stopped him before he lost control. “Wait, Emanuele, this is Evelyn’s apartment, we shouldn’t be doing this here,” she reminded him.


    Emanuele, though slightly annoyed at Isabe’s interruption, managed to restrain himself. Damn it, why did Isabe choose to stay at Evelyn’s ce? Otherwise, he could have had his way with her by now. But in the end, Emanuele held back, carried Isabe downstairs, into the car, and drove them back to their own apartment.


    Sitting in the car, feeling the man beside her driving, his scent of hormones in the air, Isabe felt a bit dizzy. It was strange how, despite their impending divorce, they seemed to suddenly reconcile upon seeing each other again. And her previously unwavering determination seemed to crumble upon seeing Emanuele. Isabe found that she could never maintain herposure in front of Emanuele. His pleas, persuasions, and coercion could easily sway her stance.


    Isabe texted Evelyn, informing her that she was returning with Emanuele. Evelyn quickly replied, “Isabe, does he know the truth?” “Yes, he suddenly investigated my medical report and discovered the issue. Since he knows now and still wants me by his side, that’s how it is. I thought about it, and if he doesn’t really like me in the future, then I’ll leave him again,” Isabe exined.


    Seeing Isabe’s reply, Evelyn felt relieved. Isabe finally seemed to havee to her senses. Previously supporting Isabe’s decision to leave, Evelyn now supported her return. Regardless of Isabe’s choices, Evelyn vowed to be there for her. But she found it strange how Emanuele, who was previously unaware, suddenly agreed to divorce and investigated Isabe’s condition. Could it be James who spilled the beans?


    With this thought in mind, Evelyn immediately called James. “Why did Emanuele suddenly go find Isabe, knowing about her health condition? Did you say something to him?” James hurriedly replied, “I didn’t say anything.” “I don’t believe it. What a coincidental turn of events,” Evelyn probed further. James felt guilty under Evelyn’s scrutiny.


    “I really didn’t say anything about her condition. I just mentioned seeing Isabe drunk and in tears, suggesting she might have some hidden reasons for her behavior, prompting Emanuele to investigate. So, that’s all,” James exined, justifying his actions. Listening to James, Evelyn was at a loss for words. James had indeed managed to hint without directly revealing the truth to Emanuele.


    “James, you screwed everything up! Isabe was on the verge of divorcing him, and now she’s probably going back to Emanuele,” Evelynmented. Though her concerns were for her friend, she couldn’t help but feel selfish, believing Isabe’s leaving Emanuele would be better for her safety. James argued, “But Evelyn, I believe Emanuele and his wife would be happier together. Yes, you worry about your friend’s safety, but think about us. We’re together despite the risks. Would you choose safety over our happiness?”


    Persuaded by James, Evelyn conceded. She realized her own situation was also risky, but the happiness she found with James outweighed the dangers. Isabe must have simr thoughts. Relieved that Evelyn wasn’t angry, James let out a sigh of relief, fearing she might break up with him over this disagreement.


    At this moment, Isabe and Evelyn returned to the apartment. Seeing everything familiar around her, Isabe wondered how Emanuele had spent these days alone. When Emanuele returned to the apartment, seeing all the familiar things reminded him of the wonderful times they had shared. It must have been hard for him. Isabe couldn’t rte since she stayed at Evelyn’s ce and didn’t have these memories triggered. When Isabe apologized tearfully to Emanuele, he resisted the urge tofort her, reminding her of the pain she had caused both of them with her unteral decision.Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    “Isabe, you don’t need to apologize. As long as you’re happy, that’s all that matters. My sadness and sorrow, you can ignore them. It’s fine. I’ll just smoke more and drink a bit more,” Emanuele expressed. The more he downyed his emotions, the more Isabe felt guilty. She deeply regretted hurting Emanuele with her thoughtless actions. “Emanuele, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have done what I did. I know I was wrong,” Isabe finally confessed.
