Semua Bab Love in Twilight: Bab 1871 - Bab 1880

Isobel knew she'd misunderstood him. He was only trying to protect her company.After he ended the call, he glanced at Isobel and spoke to the lawyer. They talked about the problems they needed to avoid in the business and the risks they might encounter in the future…He had been ignoring Isobel all this while, which made her uneasy and embarrassed.At this moment, Dexter pushed open the door and called out, "Hugo…"He saw Isobel and asked, "Isobel, you're here too?""Yeah." Isobel glanced at Hugo again. He was still talking to the lawyer. It was as if he did not notice her. He had also made a point to show her that he was ignoring her. He seemed to be asking, "What are you gonna do about it?""I'm busy," Hugo said to Dexter."Oh. I'll wait, then." Dexter was about to sit on the sofa when Isobel stopped him. "Shall we go out and have a chat?"Dexter was taken aback for a moment. Then, he figured it was probably because of Celeste.He went out with Isobel.Outside Hugo's offic

Hugo only asked Dexter to bring over an old metal box. It was very different from the things he used to give. It was quite old and looked like it had been around for long."Hugo said to only look at it when you're on the plane," Dexter said. "Have a safe trip. When will you be in Deltz again?""I don't know. Maybe… maybe not for the time being." Isobel was a little sad.She really wanted Dexter to talk more about his brother, but he didn't say anything. He probably knew that Hugo wasn't someone who liked to talk about private matters.Finally, Isobel boarded the plane back to Genovia.On the plane, she opened the box that Hugo had given her. It seemed to be all the things he had played with when he was young: glass marbles, a rusty car, a math test that he'd scored full marks for, and an essay titled "The Person I Like".Perhaps the teacher's original intention was for everyone to write about their parents or grandparents…She didn't know what Hugo was thinking, but he'd written

Thinking about how Hugo had treated her so cruelly in the past, Isobel suddenly turned her head away angrily. "Whoever said anything about us sharing the same home? What makes you think you can do whatever you want?"Hugo knew that Isobel was throwing a tantrum, so he did not say anything.When they arrived at the Lawrence family manor, Calvin said to Hugo, "Hugo, your luggage has already been placed upstairs for you. You can sleep upstairs tonight.""Okay. Thank you, Dad. Where's Mom?" Hugo was no longer as arrogant as before. He even took the initiative to address Calvin as "Dad".Calvin thought that he had misheard.Also, was Hugo wearing the sweater Isobel had knitted?All of Calvin's fantasies were obliterated.Isobel quickly stopped him. "You can't just call address my father like that.""What else do we need to do, then?" Hugo asked."We need…" She was about to say they had a long way to go and that they had to at least get engaged first. After the first two words were

"I'll only stay there for a month a year at most. It's too hot there, and I don't like it. Moreover, living in a place that's hot all year round will shorten one's lifespan. I like experiencing all four seasons—spring is warm and filled with hope; summer is bright and warm; autumn is romantic; and winter is snowy," Isobel said with boundless longing."Let's eat," Hugo said.She lowered her head and started eating. Anyway, her attitude had already made it clear how she felt. The ball was in Hugo's court.Before she could finish her meal, he pulled her into his embrace and planted a kiss on her cheek. "Do you really want me to make a choice?""It's up to you to decide. It's up to me whether I want to go," said Isobel.Hugo kissed her with even more passion.He stayed in Genovia for two more days before returning to Deltz.After he left, Isobel felt a little disappointed. However, her attitude had already told him what to do. It was up to him to decide now.Isobel had been busy in

"Isobel, he just got here. Why are you asking him to bake cupcakes?" Calvin asked. He had already arranged a room for Hugo and asked him to put his luggage upstairs first."Dad, he wants to," Isobel said to Calvin with a smile."As long as it's Isobel wants me to do it, I'll do it," Hugo said."See?" Isobel looked smug.Calvin felt that Hugo's words had a deeper meaning. In the past, he didn't really understand what kind of person Hugo was and felt that he was someone who was amorous and knew how to lure others into traps. Now, however… it looked like Hugo was a romantic at heart.That was a relief. Besides, now that he was a Meranian, Calvin couldn't be any happier.Isobel and Hugo looked at each other with love in their eyes. There was no room for anyone else. Calvin left the kitchen and went to the living room.…Earlier, Sylvia had pulled Celeste to the sofa to talk. After Dexter came over, Sylvia found out about their relationship. She let go of Celeste's hand awkwardly.
