"Not telling them is going to make them worry even more," Isaiah said, holding his phone.Isabella gave it some thought, finding that Isaiah did make sense. She bit her lip and rephrased her request, "Well, if Mom and Dad don't agree, will you support my decision?"Isaiah was puzzled.Was his disagreement not obvious?Nonetheless, Isabella wanted to ensure she had some backing if her parents disagreed. "I know you may disagree, but if you don't support me, the chances of them accepting it will be even lower. I'm sure you don't want to see me sad, right?"With Isaiah on her side, her parents might think it was a generational gap issue, making the situation more manageable.Firmly holding his stance, Isaiah replied, "Tell them yourself."This was a life-changing decision for Isabella, and he could not take it lightly."Wait!" Isabella suddenly intervened.Isaiah had hung up before the call connected, displaying his enduring affection for her. Isabella approached him, trying to

Isabella was aware of his concerns and did not resist, saying, "Alright."After their discussion, the study fell silent. Worries consumed Isaiah's mind, and he dreaded the thought of Isabella getting hurt by Luther. However, he also realized that denying her request would leave her frustrated."Come with me to the backyard," Isaiah suddenly spoke.As they stood up and went downstairs, Isabella asked, "What are we doing?"Isaiah did not respond to her.After a while, they arrived in the backyard. It was now dark outside, but thanks to the outdoor lights, the surroundings were well-lit."Fight me. If you can hold your own for ten minutes, I'll temporarily ease my worries about you spending a week with him," Isaiah said directly, his stern expression reflecting his mood.Isabella swiftly declined, without hesitation, "No, I won't."The strength difference between a man and a woman was significant. She was not sure she could even last for five minutes, let alone ten."I'm a lady a

After everything was settled, Isaiah went to Jiverton with Isabella. He chose to stay in a hotel rather than with Joshua, and Isabella had no objections.Upon returning to Jiverton, Isabella immediately visited Luther's doctor to understand the situation. After gathering all the information and potential issues, she started thinking about how to approach the conversation with Luther.In the blink of an eye, it was Thursday. Isaiah arranged to meet with Luther after his work hours. Luther was somewhat surprised when he saw Isaiah."A quick chat?" Isaiah asked.Luther, a man of few words, simply said, "Get in the car."Isaiah did not say much and got into the car. The drive was eerily quiet, with only the faint noise of tires against the road filling the space. Even Roderick, who was driving, was sweating slightly, feeling the tension in the car and thinking they were about to break into a fight at any time.The atmosphere was so thick you could almost cut it with a knife.

Luther did not just like Isabella; he also wanted to possess her. He wished for Isabella to stay by his side forever, with him being her sole focus."If you like her, why not try to get better?" This was the question that puzzled Isaiah the most. "You rarely seek medical advice. When you do, it's almost only when your condition becomes severe, and you don't follow the doctor's recommended staged treatment."A simple question stunned Luther. Why? Well, he never thought he could truly have her. He always believed someone else would be more suitable for her, someone as bright and warm as she was. Yet, his selfish desire to possess her battled with the belief that she should only belong to him.These clashing emotions led to the situation they were in. He wanted her but kept her at arm's length."I've selfishly thought about not letting her come here," Isaiah admitted. As men, they needed to confront their problems head-on. "But she's the type who won't give up until she reaches

"I don't know. I'm going out for a bit and won't be back tonight," Isabella responded nonchalantly, displaying little interest in these matters and being unclear about Isaiah's exact intentions for coming to Jiverton.Joshua simply nodded.Around ten in the evening, Isabella went to the hotel where Isaiah was staying. Her first question upon seeing him was whether he had indeed met with Luther.Isaiah hid nothing. "Yes.""But didn't we agree that you wouldn't meet him?" Isabella inquired, puzzled."We agreed that I wouldn't interfere in your relationship, but that doesn't mean I can't meet him," Isaiah clarified,Isabella wanted to argue but soon realized that he was right. She took a few steps into the room, sat on the living room sofa, and asked, "So why did you meet with him?""I wanted him to face his issues and actively seek treatment. I wanted to emphasize your feelings for him once more," Isaiah explained as he handed her a glass of juice."How did he react?" Isabella

With Isaiah's assurance, Isabella felt at ease. She knew Isaiah's capabilities well, and when he made a promise, he had a 100% success rate. Just as Isabella had expected, Isaiah had already discovered the reasons behind Luther's behavior by Friday evening.Inside their hotel suite, Isabella looked at Isaiah, who had called her over but was not saying anything. Puzzled, she asked, "Didn't you find out? What's the reason?""Take a guess," Isaiah replied.Isabella was confused. "Stop playing games.""There are three reasons. The first reason is that he came to Nexuria to see you, and you were playing a game with Jojo and Nick. He saw you then," Isaiah said, ticking them off one by one. Isabella racked her brain but eventually gave up. They had played games together countless times, and it was hard to recall which specific instance he meant."Wait!" Isabella seemed to have a moment of clarity. She guessed, "Could it be the time we played a murder mystery game where Jojo and I g

Once Isabella shattered that carefully controlled wall within him, everything would become unpredictable."What do you think of Luther as a person?" Isabella asked suddenly.Isaiah hesitated for a moment and then replied, "He's a good guy."Isabella was surprised. "A good guy?"Isaiah nodded in agreement. Initially, he strongly disapproved of Isabella being with Luther. However, after learning about Luther's condition and the reasons behind his disappearance, he realized Luther had a kind heart. He did not take advantage of Isabella's feelings and was focused on controlling his emotions, ensuring he did not hurt her.Isabella was focused on one thing. "So, if I choose to be with him, you won't object?"Isaiah observed her briefly before saying, "I will."Isabella was perplexed. "But you said he's a good guy."Well, I would object to you being with him from Luther's perspective. To you, it might seem like it's just a matter of being together or not, but for Luther, it's the diff

"Got it. Don't worry," Isabella said with a smile, feeling relatively relaxed.Isaiah did not respond. There was no way he could truly relax until there was a positive resolution for both of them.After their conversation, Isabella left to meet Luther. She had about an hour to spare before Luther finished work, so she took the time to decorate Luther's home. She rearranged his room and set up a candlelit dinner. This was her last formal attempt to win Luther over, the final step in her pursuit.Luther, who often traveled for work and had a busy schedule, had installed surveillance in his living room. He could see Isabella bustling around, and it pained him. They could continue their distant, separate lives, but it seemed that he had to completely ruin their relationship. Luther did not want her to see that side of him."Mr. Brooks?" Roderick tried to get his attention, calling him several times. "Mr. Brooks!"Luther slowly snapped back to reality, his voice somewhat hoarse. "W

Isabella glared at Nick. He actually betrayed her! Caught off guard by Luther's honesty, Nick quickly explained, "Don't look at me like that. Luther forced me to do it. If I didn't agree to his request, he would've spilled my past to my current girlfriend.""Current girlfriend?" Isabella looked puzzled.Nick confessed honestly, "My new girlfriend."Isabella was at a loss for words. Nick was very handsome. His looks could rival top celebrities. Naturally, with his face and charisma, he had no shortage of admirers. That led to a habit of frequently changing girlfriends."I made my rules clear to her. No shady behavior allowed," Nick added quickly, sensing what Isabella was thinking.Hearing this, Isabella did not say much.A moment later, Luther, seeing that their conversation had wrapped up, took Isabella's hand and left. On the way back, he deliberately brought up the topic of proposals."What kind of proposal do you like?" Luther asked."Anything works," Isabella replied
Mr. Neal, Mrs. Neal's Gone With The Money Chapter 1501
There was a time when Isabella considered letting Luther propose to her. However, he had not shown any signs that he would or asked for her ring size. There was no need to overthink it; that fool probably had not even thought about it. Nonetheless, Isabella did not blame Luther. After all, she was well aware that everyone expressed love differently. Yet, that was also precisely why she wanted to propose to him, to make him understand just how much she cared."What's wrong?" Annie asked, concerned."I'm just worried," Isabella replied. The ring sizes had been a constant worry for her."Because of what you just mentioned?"Isabella nodded. "Yeah.""Why do you want to propose to him?" Annie looked toward a dark corner. "In most relationships, the boyfriend proposes to the girlfriend, right?""I want him to feel loved," Isabella answered simply.Luther was different from most people; he always suppressed his negative emotions and limited his freedom. He no longer wanted to restr

"No," Luther declined; he still wanted to be the one proposing to her."Okay," Joshua agreed readily.Luther nodded, letting his mind wander. In the following days, Isabella kept checking on the progress, each time being informed that there was no opportunity to measure Luther's finger.In the blink of an eye, three days passed.Cynthia and Matthew had a conversation with Isaiah.Due to prior preparation, Isaiah handled Cynthia and Matthew's questions smoothly. Although they knew Isaiah had not been entirely truthful, based on his attitude toward Sandra, they agreed to the marriage without excessive probing into his relationship with her.As for Isabella, she waited for a few days but had not received any news. Frustrated, she decided to go to Jiverton herself to find Luther.When Joshua heard about her plan, he asked her to give him a bit more time. He assured her he would have the sizes by next Friday at the latest."Really?" Isabella was worried about running out of time.
Mr. Neal, Mrs. Neal's Gone With The Money Chapter 1499
"Okay." Isaiah already had a plan in mind.After discussing the matter, the two did not say much more. In the following two days, Cynthia and Matthew stayed home while Isabella prepared the details and processes for the proposal.However, after going through the general plan, Isabella suddenly realized a problem. She did not know Luther's ring size. How could she prepare a ring for the proposal without knowing the size?Realizing this issue, she immediately thought of flying to Jiverton to find out but hesitated due to Luther's caution. If she returned so soon after just coming back, he would surely be suspicious. After much contemplation, she came up with a solution—Joshua.When Isabella called, Joshua happened to be having a meal with Luther."I'm not busy, what's up?""I need your help with something," Isabella said, trusting Joshua's abilities, "but Luther can't know about it."Joshua instinctively glanced at Luther.Luther was confused. He glanced at Joshua's phone and

"Quit the act," Matthew said to Isabella, "It's too bad."Isabella stayed quiet. Matthew bluntly stated, "Isaiah currently oversees the company, and the annual revenue has been consistently increasing under his management. He even took a few subsidiaries public.""And?" Isabella inquired."He has a talent for this," Matthew hinted, leaving Isabella puzzled as she struggled to keep up with Matthew's pace."He's barely in his twenties, so there's no rush to get married," Matthew explained. He saw through everything, understanding Isaiah well, adding, "If there were truly such a concern, he could easily establish a company under Sandra's name in the next few years, operate it until it goes public."With Isaiah's abilities and connections, starting a company and taking it public would be a simple task. After the IPO and proper management, Sandra's value would naturally rise. This would effortlessly 'shut their mouths'. Isabella wanted to say something, realizing her dad's words

"That depends on the secret he's keeping," Matthew responded immediately, taking the opportunity to tease Isaiah, "If it's something against our moral values, it'd be hard not to form an opinion, even if we try not to.""He's not that kind of person," Isabella defended Isaiah.Matthew did not respond but just sat there. Their father-son dynamic involved banter and teasing, but when it came down to it, they genuinely cared about each other."He's just worried that you might object to Sandra's background," Isabella continued to spin her tale convincingly.Cynthia and Matthew were confused, both staring at Isabella.Isabella felt a bit uneasy. Something seemed off with her parents' expressions. "What's wrong?""Are you sure Isaiah is worried about this?" Cynthia asked.Why was their beloved daughter so bad at lying? Not catching on, Isabella nodded, "Absolutely.""Setting aside the fact that we've always taught you not to treat people differently based on their family background
Mr. Neal, Mrs. Neal's Gone With The Money Chapter 1496
"Ah, I see." Isabella breathed a sigh of relief and purposely asked, "Is it possible that Isaiah got to know Sandra through Uncle Yves and Uncle Sean?""It's unlikely," Cynthia denied. Even though they had not arranged any blind dates or rushed Isaiah into marriage, given his personality, he would not seek an introduction from anyone."Whenever you have time, ask Isaiah to bring his girlfriend home," Cynthia said, truly wishing for her children to find happiness. Isabella agreed, "Sure.""Isabella," Cynthia suddenly spoke up.Putting away her plan book, Isabella responded, "Hmm?""Do you think I look stern?" Cynthia sounded gentler than usual, lacking the usual nonchalance.Having been accustomed to being herself, Cynthia found it a bit awkward to take on the role of an elder suddenly. If she left a bad impression on Sandra during their first meeting, it could easily jeopardize Isaiah's relationship."Not at all," Isabella spoke sincerely, looking at Cynthia affectionately. "Y

Isaiah had seen through their plans. He knew that his parents' friends enjoyed watching him banter with Matthew. Every time something was like this, they would eagerly make things difficult for him.Early the next morning, Mitchell and the others began implementing the plan. Initially, Matthew did not suspect anything and thought they genuinely had urgent matters to attend to and brought Cynthia back home first.Considering Luther's upcoming proposal, they decided not to travel the world but instead explored nearby cities. After Mitchell and the others called Matthew aside, Isabella approached Cynthia. Cynthia was surprised to learn about Isabella and Isaiah's plan."Aren't you afraid of getting in trouble?" Cynthia asked."Not at all," Isabella responded very directly, her mind focused on planning her and Luther's engagement. "Isaiah said he can handle this matter, so let's discuss the proposal first. I've thought about several options, but none seem good enough.""Okay," Cynth

Isaiah was surprised."Take her to shoot wedding photos first," Isabella suggested seriously. After giving it some thought, Isaiah said, "I'll ask her during dinner.""Why bother asking?" Isabella thought Isaiah's emotional intelligence was lacking, and Sandra's expectations were too low. "Just pick a few reputable studios and let her choose one she likes."During their conversation, Isabella noticed that Sandra was slightly anticipating a wedding, although she had refused for some unknown reason. If she was not truly opposed to weddings, there should not be an issue with pre-wedding photos."If you give it directly to her, she'll probably say she doesn't need it," Isabella coined. She could see through people and was quite clever.Isaiah clearly did not consider this possibility."Take a look at these studios. My friends suggested them," Isabella had already made the selections and recommended them to him. "Weren't you against my decision before?" Isaiah, not understanding h
