After hanging up the phone, Isabella knew that her family would probably become suspicious, so she contacted Sophia specifically. Leaving the hospital, Isabella drove, and Ethan in the passenger seat received a message from Colin.

"The shooter's name is Jeff, 40 years old, a retired soldier who has been working as an extra for years. Colin found the person; he drowned and died. Jeff was diagnosed with leukemia recently, and he has an 18-year-old daughter."

So, everything makes sense now. It wasn't a fan at all. Jeff was doing things for the sake of his daughter's future, accepting money and then ending his own life.

Ethan called Terry and asked him to investigate who Jeff had been in contact with before. Isabella looked at the road ahead, considering the current situation. Amelia and Kathy were unlikely to be involved. So, who else could it be? She didn't have any enemies anymore! Suddenly, a bold thought emerged in her mind, and she glanced subtly at Ethan beside her.

    Just as Isabella hung up the phone, Ethan's call came in again. After hesitating for two seconds, she finally answered the phone. On the other end, the man's magnetic voice carried a hint of helplessness. "Isabella, I'm not feeling well."Upon hearing this, Isabella immediately got up and went to Ethan's room. Ethan was lying on the bed, his short hair slightly damp. Isabella frowned and walked up to him, speaking coldly, "Did you take a shower? Didn't the doctor tell you not to?"She sounded harsh. Ethan lowered his gaze and remained silent.Isabella approached and touched his forehead, which was indeed warm."You should get up, let's go to the hospital!"Ethan declined, his voice faint. "No need, I just took my medication.""...Fine."Isabella, dissatisfied, brought a hairdryer and blow-dried his hair. The sound of the hairdryer buzzed in the room. After drying his hair, Ethan said, "Thank you.""You go to sleep! Let me know if the wound hurts..."Just as Isabella was about to leave

    Being in love is a romantic thing. The efforts made by both sides make love even more beautiful. After Ethan realized his true feelings, he never hesitated again.Isabella also chose to take a step forward. Perhaps her attitude changed a lot in one day, but at this moment, all she could think about was being with Ethan and having a passionate love affair! Happiness radiated from her face as she reached out and touched Ethan's face. She noticed that his forehead was no longer as hot as before and smiled, "This is the power of love, right? Your fever has gone down!"Hearing her words, Ethan's lips curved slightly.Isabella asked again, "Does your wound hurt?""Not at all."He only felt happiness now."Really?"Ethan nodded solemnly."Okay then, if you feel any pain, let me know." Isabella got up from his embrace and touched his head. "It's getting late, let's go to sleep!"As she was about to leave, Ethan grabbed Isabella's wrist."Do I still have to sleep in the guest room?" he lowered

    Isabella picked up her phone and glanced at the flashing name on the screen. It was Eric calling. She looked at Ethan and then pressed the speakerphone button to answer the call."Eric.""Isabella, where are you?"On the other end, Eric's voice sounded a little urgent. Isabella responded, "I'm at home!""I need to talk to you about something. Can I come over?"Isabella raised her gaze and looked at Ethan, who nodded. She then said, "Sure, I'll give you the address later."After ending the call, Isabella sent the address to Eric and then smiled mischievously. "See, don't I give you a sense of security?"Ethan replied, "Not enough."Hearing this, Isabella frowned and looked at him displeased. "Then what else do you want?"Ethan thought for a moment and then said slowly, "Let's announce our relationship on Twitter later!""No way! I refuse! I won't do it!" Isabella protested.Ethan's expression turned unhappy. "You said you wouldn't hide me."Isabella put down her chopsticks, wiped her m

    In the afternoon, Isabella arranged for a private doctor to change Ethan's bandages. After the doctor left, Isabella leaned against the man's leg and gently touched the wound on Ethan's arm. "This will probably leave a scar.""It's not a big deal," Ethan said with a faint smile in his eyes. Then he asked her, "Do you want to go out and have some fun?"Isabella nodded, then shook her head. "No, I told my family that I'm filming in the countryside. It wouldn't look good if I were caught."Upon hearing this, a hint of displeasure flashed across Ethan's handsome face. "When will you tell your parents about our relationship?"Isabella poked at Pet, who was sleeping nearby, and smiled. "Why are you in such a hurry? We just got together today. Let our relationship stabilize first.""Our relationship will always be stable," Ethan said, as if he remembered something. He squinted slightly and asked, "You won't play with my feelings, will you?"Isabella immediately sat up straight, glaring at hi

    Isabella received Sherry's message when she was getting off the car. She looked at the car at the villa's gate. Isn't that her mother's car?A sense of foreboding flashed through her mind, and she hurriedly got off the car with the food. As she entered the password and opened the door, she froze just like the two people before her when she saw the scene inside.Looking at the sofa and coffee table piled with things, with only three people sitting on the chairs, Isabella swallowed her saliva and walked forward, laughing awkwardly, "Mom, Tricia, what brings you here?"Isabella looked at the room full of roses and then at Ethan, who seemed calm. Betty looked at her daughter and squinted slightly, "Weren't you supposed to be filming?". Isabella felt guilty and said, "... I finished filming and just arrived home!""Is that so?"Meeting Betty's direct gaze, Isabella took a deep breath and said, "I didn't go to film... Ethan and I have reconciled.""Hmm, I heard," Betty clicked her tongue, "

    It turns out that you can't say men are incapable. The next morning, Isabella woke up from the big bed feeling exhausted. She got up, struggled to open her eyes, and looked tired.Sensing that Ethan, who was missing from her embrace, woke up, she pulled him back into her arms, and he said in a low and magnetic voice, "Sleep a little longer.""I have to go for filming, you go ahead and sleep," Isabella replied.Upon hearing this, Ethan immediately woke up, opened his eyes, and looked displeased."Didn't you promise to take care of me until I recover?"Isabella pondered for a moment and pursed her lips. "What was said before doesn't count. You weren't my boyfriend back then, so I couldn't owe you anything. Naturally, I have to take care of you until you recover."Now that he has become her boyfriend, Isabella can comfortably owe him! What logic!Seeing the displeased look on the man's face, Isabella touched his face and smiled to coax him, "If we delay any longer, the film won't be rele

    In the afternoon, Isabella continued filming. She actually finished work at four o'clock today and planned to go see Benjamin. She changed her clothes, put on a mask and a hat, and drove alone to the Turne Group.Isabella rarely came here, but Benjamin had instructed the front desk a long time ago, so she just had to give her name and take the elevator upstairs. As she arrived on the floor, the secretary at the office entrance, dressed in professional attire, stood up with a standard smile on her face. "The boss is in a meeting. Please wait in the office for a moment."Isabella looked at the woman in front of her, and their eyes met. She froze.The woman opened the office door and looked at Isabella standing still. "Miss."Isabella snapped out of her daze and stared at her, asking, "What's your name?""Well, my name is Rita."Isabella pursed her lips and then walked into the office.Rita spoke, "What would you like to drink?""Coffee, please."Rita acknowledged and left.Isabella star

    Isabella didn't answer the phone in front of Benjamin. Instead, she went to the restroom and leisurely answered the call."Isabella, Amelia is planning to take action," Julia's voice was filled with anxiety. "After the recording of 'Journey Around the World' the day after tomorrow, she wants me to drug you in the water and take you away...""I understand."After hanging up the phone, Isabella chuckled coldly. Amelia, you can't hold back anymore.Returning to the private room, Alexander was already inside. Isabella asked, "Why are you here?""You didn't invite me for dinner. Do you think Benjamin is heartless like you?""I heard you're with Ethan now? You have no principles. You quickly threw yourself into the arms of the enemy."The three siblings hadn't had a meal together for a long time. This dinner was quite enjoyable, although the conversation mostly revolved around Ethan. After finishing the meal, it was already past seven. Isabella declined the offer to go home with the two of

Upon entering the ward, Benjamin didn't see Sara's figure, and his eyes dimmed instantly.Seeing their arrival, Leo immediately put down his phone and walked up to Benjamin, furrowing his brows as he asked, "Where's Mommy?"Benjamin crouched down, looking at Leo's innocent face, and his deep eyes turned red again. He hugged Leo tightly.Leo was confused and pushed him away, asking, "Where's Mommy?"Benjamin looked at him and softly said, "Your Mommy has something to take care of, so she went away for now. She asked me to take good care of you.""That's impossible! Mommy would never leave me with you."Isabella chuckled and said, "If you don't believe it, you can call your Mommy to confirm."Leo quickly took out his phone and dialed his Mommy's number, which was answered promptly."Mommy, where did you go?""Leo, Mommy has something urge

    The autumn wind blew over the two of them, and Benjamin's words resonated in Sara's ears. Her eyes turned red. There were many things she wanted to say, but in the end, she pushed Benjamin away. Sara knew that she couldn't hide it anymore. Karl had already been exposed, and it wouldn't take long for Benjamin to uncover everything. She held back the tears in her eyes, pushed Benjamin away, and spoke with an icy tone, "Yes, I am Sara." Although Benjamin was already certain in his heart, hearing her admission still stirred something within him. It was good. She was still alive. He began, "Sara..." Before he could finish his sentence, Sara interrupted him. Her voice was ice-cold to the extreme. "Benjamin, I am Gordon Jones' person. I approached you from the beginning with a purpose. I have never loved you. And appearing before you as Rita is also part of a plan to harm your family." Benjamin's gaze flickered. He believed her words. "No, you couldn't have never loved me.

    Isabella stood frozen, watching Rita. This was definitely the most exciting scene she had witnessed in her over twenty years of life. Sara wasn't dead! And she had a son? Isabella felt an urge to grab a bottle of makeup remover and splash it on this "Rita's" face!Sara's words fell on Benjamin's ears, but he didn't say anything. He simply stared at her intently, sensing the attention from onlookers. Benjamin reached out and pulled Sara into the elevator, leaving quickly."Mummy!... Let go of my mummy!" Leo was about to chase after them, but Isabella hurriedly held him back. "Little one, your mummy and my older brother have something to talk about. Are you feeling sick? Should I take you to get an injection?"Upon hearing this, Leo felt like crying!"Bad aunt, let go of me!" Leo struggled, but he couldn't match Isabella's strength."What bad aunt? Call me Auntie!"Arriving in the hospital room, as Leo was about to run after them, Isabella held him back and smiled, saying, "Don't worry,

    After lunch, Isabella went to Turne Group and told Benjamin that Karl already knew that he and Ethan hadn't broken up. While speaking, Isabella stared at Benjamin and asked, "Big brother, why do you look so pale? Is your cold not better yet?"Benjamin coughed lightly and replied, "I just took some medicine. It's nothing, don't worry."Isabella frowned, quickly got up, and touched Benjamin's forehead, which was very hot. "This is not okay! Come on, let's go to the hospital and see a doctor."Isabella directly snatched the files from Benjamin's hand, closed them, and urged him to go to the hospital.Upon arriving at the hospital, Benjamin stood still. In the crowd not far from the lobby, he stared intently at a familiar figure.Over the years, he had come across numerous people with back figures similar to Sara's, and the most similar one was Rita.
