Julia's face lost its smile and she looked quite aggrieved. In the live chat room, Julia's fans immediately exploded! "Isabella is so rude! Julia was just asking casually!" "Sheesh, can't expect anything good from Isabella!" "Well, I personally think Julia has a bit of a two-faced attitude..." Then, Eric and Charles arrived as well. "Isabella, you're amazing! I thought we would have to sleep in tents!" Eric exclaimed. Isabella smiled. The group went upstairs to explore the villa, and Isabella took on the role of a leader, directly assigning rooms. Eric and Charles didn't have any objections. However, Brian's face turned somewhat unpleasant. With Yaning's standards, a villa costing over 10,000 dollars was considered low-end, and Brian's room was the smallest. "Isabella, do you have any issues with me?" Brian asked. Upon hearing his words, Isabella quickly shook her head and said, "Why would I? We've known each other since college, and I know you're a generous and tolerant per
Isabella was initially planning to refuse Eric's offer, but she thought it wouldn't be good to reject him outright, so she decided to accept it. The rest of the group looked at each other, especially Brian, who knew about Eric's background and had some ulterior motives to please him. In front of the cameras, they didn't say much and enthusiastically discussed tomorrow's itinerary. Charles took a bite of the noodles and almost blurted out, "It's so bad," but he managed to swallow it down. Isabella, on the other hand, took a bite and immediately spat it out. She couldn't stand the taste. Brian quickly asked, "What's wrong, Isabella?" Isabella took a sip of water and looked up, sincerely saying, "This... it's so delicious! Your cooking skills are amazing, comparable to a five-star chef!" Brian's expression turned slightly sour. He knew Isabella was mocking him despite praising his cooking. At that moment, the barrage of comments started again. "Isabella is crazy! She accused Brian o
Isabella already knew his room number and was planning to buy some food before going up. However, as soon as she turned around, Ethan grabbed her wrist."What are you doing?" Isabella raised an eyebrow in confusion, meeting his deep gaze.He unabashedly stared at her, as if looking at prey, his gaze intense and overwhelming.Isabella paused for a moment, a faint coquettish smile appearing on her lips. "What's wrong? Can't bear to let me go?"Ethan replied, "Didn't you say we should go in and sit for a while?"Isabella wondered if he really meant to just sit for a while.With that, he swiped the keycard, opened the door, and held Isabella's hand as they walked in.With a click, the door closed behind them. Ethan didn't turn on the lights, and Isabella had a feeling of walking into a tiger's den. For some reason, she suddenly felt timid. "I should go back first. It's not appropriate for us to be alone like this."Ethan said, "No way."As Isabella tried to open the door with her other ha
In this way, Ethan graciously drove Isabella to the hotel. Throughout the journey, he had a gloomy expression on his face. Isabella was very tired and sat in the car, drowsily drifting off to sleep. She wasn't interested in teasing him either.When they arrived at the hotel's entrance, Isabella unbuckled her seatbelt in a daze and got out of the car. She mumbled, "Thank you." Just as she opened the car door, Ethan's cold voice came from behind."Stay away from Eric Scott."Hearing this, Isabella suddenly became a bit more awake. She squinted and smiled. "What? Are you jealous?"Ethan didn't refute her words. He calmly asserted his authority. "You belong to me now.""Okay, I'm yours," Isabella replied with a playful expression.She got off the car with a satisfied smile. When she returned to her room, she heard the sound of people getting ready shortly after. Everyone was waking up. Isabella changed her clothes and as soon as she opened the door, Julia was standing outside."You're awa
Isabella had a hunch about what Brian was up to, but he continued to gaze at her with affectionate eyes."Isabella, I have never forgotten about you all these years. The things I said when we reunited were all said in anger," Brian said.Isabella couldn't help but chuckle. "Really? Then why did you betray me back then?"Brian's gaze flickered, and he slowly spoke, "I was forced into it at the time. I have always had feelings for you, Isabella. Can we reconcile? I have many resources now, and if you're with me, I will treat you well. It won't be like before."Isabella's lips twitched. She hadn't even had any alcohol during dinner, so how did this guy end up so intoxicated? She narrowed her eyes, a hint of coldness flashing through her gaze. She didn't need to think much to know what Brian was planning.Seeing Isabella's silence, Brian approached her. "Isabella."...About twenty minutes later, Julia, Eric, and Charles were playing poker upstairs.Julia muttered, "Why is Isabella taking
Isabella's Twitter feed was flooded with hateful messages from Brian's fans, who, regardless of the reasons, sympathized with the injured party—Brian. Isabella became the target of relentless online attacks. However, at that moment, Isabella posted a video on Twitter, which was captured by surveillance footage. The video showed Brian entering the room, followed by Julia and her group. Every moment was captured clearly, with audio. When the video was exposed, everyone was left dumbfounded."What on earth? Brian and Isabella were once together?""Brian cheated? No way, it must be fake!""Oh my God! I'm so shocked!"Next, the video showed their conversation. Brian approached Isabella, trying to embrace her forcefully after his previous attempts failed. In response, Isabella fought back, and Brian, despite trying to retaliate, was no match for her. The turn of events astonished everyone."Brian is disgusting! I'm sorry, Isabella, for misunderstanding you!""I feel sick. What a despicable
Rarely did they have the opportunity to mess with Amelia. Isabella wouldn't go along with her intentions. She leisurely ate her food, with everyone's curious gaze upon her. She smiled and said, "Well, we should ask Amelia about that, shouldn't we?"As she spoke, everyone's eyes turned to Amelia. Amelia put down her chopsticks and hurriedly defended herself, "I... I didn't know that Brian and Isabella were together. I had no idea he had a girlfriend. He deceived me.""Is that so? But you found out later that he was cheating, yet you still stayed with him for a year," Isabella retorted."I...," Amelia lowered her head and couldn't find words to defend herself.Benjamin and Alexander remained silent. With just a few words, how could they not know the inside story? Their gazes towards her changed.In the end, Grandma spoke up, "Alright, that's enough. It's all in the past. He's just a man. Both of you need to be clear about your choices in the future.""Understood, Grandma," Amelia quickl
Meanwhile, inside the clubhouse, Ethan, Nathan, and Ryan were drinking. Somehow, Ethan asked a question. "How do you maintain a mistress?"Nathan was taken aback, and Ryan spit out the drink he had just taken, completely shocked. "Ethan, what did you just say?"Ethan frowned slightly and repeated his words.It took Ryan a while to react. "OMG, miracles do happen!"Ryan was the most knowledgeable about this topic and began explaining, "Maintaining a mistress is all about money! It's not about emotions, just money. Give her what she wants, don't mistreat her, and when you break up, she won't cling to you. It's that simple."Ethan took a sip of his drink, contemplating for a moment. Indeed, it seemed quite simple."Tell me, Ethan, who is your mistress?"Ethan didn't tell him, but Nathan, who was beside them, laughed softly. He had a vague guess in his mind and leaned over to Ethan, whispering, "Take precautions. Isabella is the most promising newcomer I've seen this year."Ethan didn't r
