The three of them were chatting when news about Ethan and Isabella's breakup was released by the media. Isabella became the center of attention since she was Ethan's girlfriend, so it was expected that the paparazzi would be keeping an eye on her.Benjamin looked at the photos and asked, "Didn't the paparazzi record any audio? Weren't they sitting right next to you?"Ethan frowned because he had clearly seen the paparazzi recording.Since Isabella had nothing to do that day, she went to the company with Benjamin. They spent the whole morning in the office, bored and waiting for the paparazzi to release the recording. The recording was short, and it seemed like Isabella had suggested breaking up and then regretted it. Ethan's few words made it clear to netizens."Do you think breaking up is something you can say casually?""Let's break up, I've had enough."Meanwhile, Isabella's phone kept ringing with messages from Sherry, Alexander, Sophia, and others, all inquiring about the situati
On Ethan's side, he managed to avoid a beating from Alexander, but he was almost on the receiving end of Karl's wrath. Just a minute ago, a call came in from the front desk, informing him that a man named Karl wanted to see him. A few minutes later, as Ethan sat on the sofa, the office door swung open, and Karl, wearing a black trench coat, stormed in. In a cold voice, Karl asked, "Why did you break up with Isabella?" Ethan looked at him, expressionless, and replied, "What's it to you?" Their eyes locked, and Karl's gaze turned sinister. He stepped forward and grabbed Ethan's collar. Just as his fist was about to land, Ethan managed to dodge and shook off Karl's grip. "Ethan, don't you know her temper when you're with her? If you couldn't bear it, why did you get together with her? Do you know? She loves you!" "She loves me, and I love her too, but she takes advantage of my love and acts recklessly. I can't tolerate that. Besides, you have no right to comment on my actions." Karl
After Karl arrived, the three of them spent nearly half an hour drinking before leaving. Isabella refused Karl and Sophia's offer to accompany her and stumbled out of the door to hail a taxi. Under the streetlights, Sophia and Karl wore expressions of sadness as they watched the taxi drive away.Five minutes later, inside the taxi, the man in the front seat wearing a cap and a mask stopped the car and spoke in a low, cold voice, "Sit up front."Isabella got out of the car and moved to the passenger seat, removing Ethan's mask. She smiled and said, "I feel like I've used all my acting skills in this play. Karl should believe that we've broken up, right?"Ethan sneered, thinking that Karl must have been heartbroken judging by his expression.The man raised his hand and pinched Isabella's face. "You're not allowed to see him anymore.""Okay, okay," Isabella replied.She stretched lazily, her face showing a hint of sadness. She wondered what Karl would do next. It was somewhat heartbreaki
Kathy, sitting on the couch, was happily scrolling through her phone, watching Isabella being criticized. Ever since Ethan and Isabella's relationship was exposed, Kathy had been keeping a close eye on Isabella. She knew that Isabella's popularity in the entertainment industry was growing, and she would eventually surpass her. So Kathy decided to expose her.Although Isabella's identity was from the Turne family, Kathy believed that as long as she could ruin Isabella's reputation, it would be enough. What could Isabella, who was now infamous, do to her?Setting her phone aside, Kathy was about to go to the refrigerator to grab a drink when the door opened. It was her father returning home. Kathy looked puzzled and asked, "Dad, didn't you just go to the company? Why are you back?"Before she could finish her sentence, her father slapped her across the face.Kathy was stunned, "Dad, you..."Her father interrupted her angrily, "Look at what you've done, Kathy! Couldn't you have discussed
At this moment, Karl was in a small villa in northern Myanmar. Many people were surprised by Ethan's online announcement that he and Isabella hadn't broken up, but Karl wasn't surprised at all."Dad, give up! It's impossible for us to destroy the Turner Group with our current capabilities."He had been monitoring the Turner Group for years but hadn't found any leverage. Now, with the addition of the Adams Group as their collaborators...Beside Karl sat a man in his fifties, sitting in a wheelchair. He had gray hair, a weathered face, and his eyes were fixed on the blooming magnolia outside the window—Maisie's favorite flower.Gordon Jones's gaze was cold. "Give up? Have you forgotten how your mother died? And your uncles? It's all because of their family.""If only you had made Isabella fall in love with you back then, there wouldn't be the Adams family helping them now!"Karl fell silent. If it were anyone else, he would have wholeheartedly helped his father, but the other person was
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. And at this moment, the person was indeed Rita.Following Benjamin's gaze, Isabella said, "Isn't that Rita? We couldn't find her whereabouts
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,
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. You've alway
