Isabella snapped back to reality and hurried to catch up, but was stopped by Ava, "Isabella, Mr. Ashton is taken care of by us, you don't need to bother. You should go to work."

Ava's words made Isabella feel extremely uncomfortable, as she was clearly being treated as an outsider.

Her own husband was sick, and she couldn't even be by his side. Isabella felt as if she had been slapped hard in the face, her heart filled with frustration.

She just realized that she had never truly entered Quinn's life. Quinn's background, Quinn's work, everything about Quinn, seemed untouchable to her.

Even now that Quinn was sick, she couldn't take care of him by his side as his wife.

She was almost doubting, was Quinn really her husband?

Isabella bit her lip, the more she thought, the worse she felt. Firstly, she was worried about Quinn, and secondly, she felt suffocated inside.

"Woof woof..." Sensible Misty sensed that Isabella was in a bad mood, rubbed against her foot, and woofed a few times to com

    Quinn ignored everyone, leaving Isabella somewhat embarrassed, standing there not knowing whether to advance or retreat.After a while, Quinn finally looked up, his eyes cold and calm beneath the golden frames of his glasses, "How did you get here?"He didn't want to force her to take a cold shower, which resulted in a high fever, so high that he fell into a coma. Yet, this woman still had the nerve to go to work, leaving him aside without even asking, truly a heartless woman.The expression on Quinn's face and his tone of voice made Isabella feel unwelcome. She was nervous and pursed her lips, "Ava sent me to see you."Ava had to invite her before she came. If he hadn't let Ava make that call, would she not have come?Quinn furrowed his brows, his voice becoming even more indifferent and calm. "You've seen me now, so go back and continue your work.""Oh... okay." Isabella forced down the resentment in her heart, nodded with a smile, and turned to leave.This woman really left!Quinn

    Isabella got up and sat next to Quinn, glancing at the table. There were more than ten dishes of various sizes, most of which were spicy, totally unsuitable for a patient who had just had a high fever.After taking everything in, Isabella's gaze was fixed on the vibrant and appetizing-looking tropical smoothie on the table.Even if Isabella didn't understand medicinal cuisine, she knew that a tropical smoothie had the effect of nourishing blood and yin for women. She couldn't possibly let Quinn, whose high fever had not completely subsided, drink this, could she?Quinn usually ate light meals, and all those dishes were made by this aunt. Why did she only make such meals when he was sick?After sweeping her gaze around, Isabella looked at Quinn with a question, "Are you sure these dishes were prepared by Joselyn for you?""No." Quinn looked at Isabella, his gaze deep and gentle, "I've already eaten. These were specially prepared by Joselyn for you."Isabella exclaimed in surprise, "Was

I hope Mrs. Ashton can forgive me."Ava and the others had been with Quinn for many years, demonstrating strong capabilities and earning Quinn's deep trust.

    The Isabella of today, although still as eye-catching as she was back then, could no longer see his presence in her eyes.The thought of Isabella only having eyes for Quinn from NextEra Technologies inexplicably ignited a fire in Alexander's heart.How could a man who could only afford a car worth hundreds of thousands marry his Isabella? Why would Isabella be so devoted to him?Thinking of these, various emotions surged into Alexander's mind, the most prominent being the feeling of his belongings being taken away by others.He had lived so long, yet he had never wanted something he couldn't obtain. He was determined to take Isabella back from Quinn.He said again, "NextEra Technologies has reached that stage, and yet Quinn hasn't made a move. What on earth is he playing at? Could it be that I overestimated him, and his true strength is actually so weak?"Lucas said ingratiatingly, "Mr. Gray, the Gray Group is one of the top in our country.

    Mentioning Quinn, Isabella's face turned red instantly, involuntarily recalling those dirty jokes Lila told that night.Seeing her face turn so red, Lila reached out and tapped Isabella's forehead, "You're such a hopeless girl. You can't even handle a mention of a man.""Lila, can we stop talking about men for once and change the subject?" Isabella didn't want to continue the topic of Quinn. If she accidentally said something wrong, she would definitely be scolded to death by Lila.As she spoke, Isabella put food into the pot, "Considering you've been flying for over ten hours, let me serve you dinner tonight.""You're sensible," Lila laughed, then added, "I haven't met your man yet, don't you plan to introduce him to me?""I had planned to introduce you to him a long time ago, but your schedules never matched up, and these past few days he's been away on a business trip," Isabella said, as she served some vegetables into Lila's bowl.Just as they were talking about Quinn, Quinn's cal

    Upon hearing the sound, everyone turned around in unison, only to see a man in a crisp silver-grey suit standing behind them.Beneath his golden glasses, his eyes seemed to carry a faint hint of amusement. Yet, that amusement was chilling to the bone, making one unconsciously want to take three steps back.Lucas was the first to snap back to reality, "Oh... I thought it was someone else. So it's Mr. Ashton from NextEra Technologies. It just so happens that my young master also wants to meet you, so why don't you come with us."However, Quinn didn't even glance at Lucas. He walked elegantly and steadily to Isabella, reached out and touched her head, "I told you not to go out at night, but you never listen. You should be punished."His voice was as usual, deep and sexy, without any emotional fluctuations. It couldn't be said that he had no emotions, it could only be said that his emotions were solely for Isabella.Quinn's emotions would make onlookers think that he was thinking. "Not go

You've unintentionally picked up a man who can afford such a luxury car, you must have done good deeds in your previous life."Isabella really wanted to seal Lila's mouth with tape, she even thought about throwing Lila out of the car window.However, she couldn't do anything too damaging to her image in front of Quinn, so she had to keep smiling at Lila, even though she had already cursed that damn girl thousands of times in her heart.Isabella had shot Lila murderous glances several times, but Lila simply ignored them and kept talking incessantly.Lila sat in the back seat of the car, leaning slightly forward, and asked, "

    Seed drill?No sooner had Isabella's words left her mouth than she felt a pain on her lips. Before she could react, she was forcefully kissed by Quinn.He forcefully and dominantly pried open her shell-like teeth, invaded her mouth, and compelled her to accept his assertive kiss."Uh—" Isabella swung her fists, pounding them one after another on his solid chest, "Bastard, let me go!"She muttered indistinctly, but Quinn paid her no mind, kissing her like a furious lion.His kiss was too dominant, and soon Isabella had no strength to struggle, but she was not one to give up easily.Isabella couldn't push him away, nor could she hurt him by hitting. This man was not only incredibly strong, but his muscles were also astonishingly solid.Isabella was so angry, perhaps even blinded by rage, that she thrust her hand into his suit collar and fiercely grabbed at his chest through his shirt.Quinn's body shuddered slightly, he qui

    "I want to have a word with Elena alone," Isabella said."Then I'll go ahead and wait for Ms. Isabella. If you need anything, just call out." With that, Ashford turned around and walked away, leaving behind a smile.Isabella took a deep breath of cool air, returning once again to the window. In the room, Elena was quietly looking in the direction of the window, her gaze as silent as death.Isabella's gaze fell on Elena's face, looking at her unrecognizable face, she thought of many things from the past.Once upon a time, Elena was so radiant and dazzling. Back then, so many boys in their circle wanted to pursue her, but they were all gently rejected by her one by one.It was not until later that Isabella found out that Elena's heart had always been with Alexander, with marrying him as her lifelong pursuit."Are you here to mock me?" Elena suddenly burst into laughter. Her cold laughter was particularly eerie and terrifying in this quiet cour

    Isabella didn't know why, but the nicer Quinn was to her, the more uneasy she felt. She was terrified that one day she would open her eyes and he would no longer be by her side, and she would never be able to find him again.If he hadn't been so good to her, even if one day he was no longer by her side, she would have been able to adapt to a new life quickly.But back then—Back then, she found herself increasingly reluctant to leave him. Even dreaming of him saying he wanted to break up would cause her such heartache.Although he said the breakup was in a dream, she still felt a lingering fear at this moment."Isabella, can you tell me what's on your mind?" Quinn asked, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, his gaze deep and profound.Isabella had been frequently distracted recently. Quinn knew she was hiding something in her heart, but he just couldn't guess what it was.She was still eating at that moment, and he was still by her s

    "Wasn't it you?" The speaker turned back into Alexander, who stepped forward and grabbed her by the throat, "Izzy, we were once the closest people to you, yet you conspired with someone else to frame us.""I didn't--" Isabella tried to speak, but he choked her throat. Her face swelled up red, breathing became more and more difficult, and she couldn't utter a word."Isabella, do you know how sordid your birth was? Kason treated your mother like a plaything, giving her to other men, and it was under such unbearable circumstances that she conceived you.""Take another look at who Quinn is? He's Qadir, the one who controls the Grand Group. He's someone that many people can't reach. Now look at you, what's your status? What gives you the right to stand by his side, to take the place of his wife?""Did you think that carrying his child would keep him tied to you? Did you think his promises to you would always hold true?""The only reason he was still wit

    It was precisely because Alexander had been escorting her all the way, and Kason's attitude towards Isabella was fairly good, that she could capriciously do what she wanted to do.During the college entrance examination, Isabella was admitted to the best university in Lunaris with the highest score, but that was Kason's wish, not hers. What she wanted to study was fashion design.Kason was very angry about this matter. In his rage, he punished her by not allowing her to eat dinner and, furthermore, made her stand as punishment.This matter was known to Alexander, who climbed over the wall from their villa, ascended a large tree to the upper floor of her house, and gave her the packed chicken legs and hot rice. "Izzy, eat quickly.""Alexander, you've always been the best to me." She took the lunch box, looking at him with a smile of pure joy."Who will treat you well if I don't?" Alexander said, not without pride, as he affectionately ruffled her ha

    These past few days, due to health reasons, Isabella always got up relatively late, usually arriving at the studio around ten in the morning.Seeing her come in, Lila quickly poured her a glass of boiled water. She watched as she opened her mouth to speak, but in the end, she didn't say anything."Lila, are you trying to play charades with me?" They had been friends for so many years, how could Isabella not tell that Lila had something to say to her.Lila thought again, even if she didn't tell Isabella, but this matter was so big, Isabella would soon know. It would be better to let her say it, and it could also serve as a reminder to Isabella.She first helped Isabella sit down, then slowly asked, "Izzy, what is your current attitude towards Alexander?""Why did you suddenly mention that person?" Isabella asked.To be honest, all her thoughts had been on Quinn and the child for quite some time. She hadn't thought about those past events and

    It hit Alexander's head hard."It was you, it was you, it was you, it was you, it was you!"With every smash, Elena roared, putting all her strength into each one.Blood splattered, splashing on her face, falling into her eyes - a sea of crimson.She kept smashing until all her strength was exhausted. Only then, panting, did she stop.Alexander was already unrecognizable.She smashed it."Hahaha..." Looking at her own masterpiece, Elena suddenly burst into laughter, laughing so hard that tears came out.Tears and blood, mixed together.Bitter, sweet, and pungent, just like her life.Suddenly, she lost all her strength and collapsed weakly next to Alexander's body.She stared blankly at the unrecognizable corpse, then suddenly, she reached out and embraced him."Alexander, was Ellie beautiful?"She asked.No answer.Only the color of blood was spreading infinitely.After a

    Even though the New Year was almost over, the weather in Lunaris was still very cold.In those days, Elena didn't go out at all, she stayed at home all day, but she still dressed herself up beautifully.She had always been a woman who loved beauty.Although her face was ruined, she did not give up on herself, because beautiful makeup was equally important.She turned her back, hiding her scarred face from view. Even just looking at her silhouette, one would still consider her an exceptionally beautiful woman.Her slender waist was just a handful, her golden, big wavy hair casually draped over it.Lifting the soup to take a few big gulps, Alexander's gaze fell on Elena's back.She was wearing a bright red coat today, the color of blood, so red that it was somewhat startling.He stared at her for quite a while, Alexander didn't take his eyes off her. Logically, she shouldn't have obeyed him as she used to.Could it be that

"..."In fact, he really wanted to keep her by his side at all times, but he knew her personality too well, she took her work very seriously.If he had forcibly prevented her from going to work, she would have definitely been unhappy. And the last thing he wanted to do was to make her unhappy.After thinking for an entire night, he finally came up with what he thought was a good solution - he would accompany her to work. That way, he could always keep an eye on her.Isabella yanked the blanket aside, sitting up abruptly, only to hear Quinn's anxious voice, "Isabella, take it easy."His large palm also timely supported her waist, preventing her from continuing to move about."Mr. Ashton, being pregnant isn't as scary as you imagine," she wondered if he was foolish.Every time she moved, he would get so nervou
