"Just tell me what you need me to do. Let's take it slow, and I'll accompany you through this lifetime," Isabella said patiently.Perhaps Isabella was too sincere, or maybe because the person he loved loved him back that all the emotions that surged within Luther dispersed. At this moment, he was just Luther, shedding the disguises as he calmed down.Luther was no longer as cold as before, nor did he have an episode of explosive paranoia. All that remained was the confusion and bewilderment in his dark eyes.Isabella tenderly embraced him and planted a gentle kiss on his lips. With the softest tone, she asked him, "Is it okay?""Okay..." Luther's voice carried a huskiness."Give me the phone." Isabella extended one hand.Luther handed over his phone."My phone," Isabella said, pointing at her own phone.Luther glanced again at the phone placed aside. The thought of her possibly using that phone to contact others soured his mood a little."Do you want to show your face or kee

Isabella went on and on, explaining everything to Luther. Knowing that Luther lacked a sense of security and was not much of a talker, Isabella had thought of everything without being asked. She genuinely liked him and cared deeply for him."That's all I can think of for now. If you have any other concerns, feel free to bring them up." Isabella summarized, adding, "Starting now, I'll keep my distance from Jojo and Nick. Similarly, you should keep your distance from other girls."Naturally, Isabella understood that merely providing him with a sense of security was not enough. Given Luther's current situation, he would surely hope she would have a unique possessiveness toward him too, and only then would he feel secure.Just as Isabella had expected, her assurance warmed Luther's heart. However, it was still somewhat incomplete. It was not until Isabella made her own requests that he truly felt loved."Why aren't you saying anything? You don't want to agree to it?" Isabella asked k

"When are you planning to meet my family and announce our marriage?" Isabella sat with him on the bed, holding his arm as she asked, "Or are you thinking of going to register the marriage directly?"Luther tapped her on the head."Hey!" Isabella covered her head. "What's that for?""Confession, being together, proposal, engagement, marriage, preparing for pregnancy, getting pregnant. You have to do it step by step."Isabella simply replied, "Alright, I'll listen to you."Luther wanted to give her more advice, but his phone vibrated. When he saw it was Isaiah calling, he was caught off guard. "What's wrong?" Isabella asked, puzzled."Isaiah is here," Luther replied as he stood up, ending the call and heading toward the door. Isabella was even more confused now. After all, Isaiah's sudden appearance was not a big deal, and she could not help but wonder why Luther acted as if her parents were visiting.Luther opened the door, inviting Isaiah into his home.Isaiah saw Isabella

The two of them stayed for a while before Isabella and Isaiah finally left. After seeing them off, Luther sat on the sofa, reflecting on everything that had happened that day. It felt so surreal.Luther initially thought he would lose control of his emotions and scare her away, but Isabella managed to calm him down. That was something he never anticipated.Ding![Isabella: Dear, you can trust me and rely on me. Don't worry about me leaving you because you're the only person I've liked since the very beginning.]Luther's gaze softened. He pursed his lips, contemplating before finally taking the risk.If this worked out, it would be just as he always wanted; if it failed, it would be another irreversible loss. [Luther: Okay.]Isabella's eyes lit up when she received the message, genuinely overjoyed. Isaiah raised an eyebrow and uttered, "Do you want to take a look at how ridiculous you're right now?" "I'm just in love. You wouldn't understand," Isabella retorted. Isai

"Got it," Isabella did not argue with him, just agreed directly.Afterward, neither of them spoke much. Isaiah drove, and Isabella continued texting Luther. Once they reached the hotel, there was a hint of concern in Isaiah's expression. It was evident he was still worried about Isabella and Luther. After careful consideration, Isaiah looked at Isabella, who was playing with her phone on the sofa, and said, "How's Luther doing?"Isabella stopped her texting and looked at him, saying, "He's doing fine. It's different from what you initially thought. His emotions were stable throughout the process, and he didn't harm me."Isaiah was somewhat skeptical, asking, "Not at all?""At first, he wanted to drive me away, but under my persistent efforts, he calmed down," Isabella explained everything honestly. Isaiah wanted to say something but feared it might not be appropriate. After all, Isabella and Luther were already together. All he could do was hope that the two would get along wel

After all, she was now an adult, and he could not excessively meddle with her life. Isabella cleared her throat, asking, "Can we just say I'm dating Luther without mentioning his condition?""What do you think?" Isaiah replied.Isabella giggled and playfully replied, "Of course we can!"Isaiah turned serious and said, "No, you can't. Before, you promised to tell them about Luther's situation if I told you why Luther disappeared. I did as you said and helped you with the other things you asked. Don't you think you should..."Before he could finish his sentence about fulfilling promises, Isabella started to pout. "But Isaiah...""If you don't tell them, I'll do it," Isaiah said firmly, not allowing room for negotiation."Give me another month. If Luther's situation improves after a month, our parents won't worry. If it hasn't improved, I'll still tell them," Isabella negotiated with a somewhat aggrieved expression, Isaiah said nothing.Isabella softened her tone and begged aga

After the phone call, Isabella returned to Joshua's place.It was almost eleven at night when she arrived. Despite the late hour, Joshua still awaited her in the living room. Seeing her return, he brought out the prepared midnight snack from the kitchen."Why aren't you asleep yet?" Isabella was somewhat surprised. She noticed the late hour on the way back and told him to go to bed first. After all, they were older; staying up late was more challenging for them than it was for young people."I couldn't sleep without hearing how you managed to win over Luther," Joshua replied, placing the midnight snack in front of her. There was a hint of indulgence and care in his eyes."You could have asked me on WhatsApp. Besides, you can hear it tomorrow," Isabella said while eating."I can't see your happy expression on WhatsApp. I want to hear the story from you in person," Joshua replied, smiling warmly.Isabella was surprised to hear his reply, but she giggled and put down her utensils,

"Good boy!" Isabella praised him through the video call, almost wanting to reach through the screen to pat his head, "It's getting late; you should go to bed soon."After Luther agreed and wished her good night, Isabella placed her phone on the bedside table to charge, setting the alarm for an early morning wake-up. She could not afford to break that promise since she had promised to pick him up.The night passed peacefully, and Isabella had a restful sleep. She was up before seven in the morning, readying herself and packing the breakfast Fiona had prepared in advance. Then, she took the breakfast and headed out.Around seven forty, Isabella arrived at Luther's doorstep. With one hand holding the breakfast, she pressed the doorbell with the other. Having just finished his morning run and shower, Luther absentmindedly threw on a shirt, assuming it was Roderick at the door. When he saw Isabella standing outside, he was shocked. "Good morning, my beloved boyfriend. Are you going t

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

"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
