Isabella found a nearby café and sat down. It was already 6 o'clock, the peak hour after work, so Ethan should have taken about 40 minutes to come from the office. But after more than 20 minutes, Ethan appeared in front of her. "Huh? Why did you come so quickly?"

Ethan didn't say anything but took her hand and examined it for a moment before trying to unwrap the bandage. Isabella quickly pulled her hand back and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Is the wound deep?"

"Not deep." Isabella shook her head and then looked at him with a pitiful expression. "But it hurts a lot, and I feel so pitiful."

"How did it happen?" Ethan asked again, his voice sounding low and nervous.

Isabella took a sip of her drink and casually replied, "One of Brian's fans was arrested and taken to the police station. It's nothing."

After saying that, she looked at Ethan's frowning expression and narrowed her eyes with a smile. "What? Are you so worried about me?"

Upon hearing this, Ethan paused. It was at this moment

    Isabella wanted to find Ethan to clarify things, but by the time the man finished his busy work and returned to bed, she had already fallen into a deep sleep.The next day, Isabella woke up and looked around, only to find that Ethan was nowhere to be seen. After freshening up, she realized that the bandage on her hand had been changed. She squinted slightly, feeling increasingly strange emotions in her heart.Isabella still wanted to go to the set to film. She picked up her phone and saw a message in the group chat for the crew. The director had announced a three-day break. Three days of break...Isabella naturally knew that it was Ethan's doing. Indeed, the man only knew how to interfere with her career! She spent a boring morning at home, and just after finishing lunch, she received a call from Ava."We have a script discussion meeting for the new movie this afternoon. Come at two. Tomorrow afternoon, we'll shoot T.R's endorsement advertisement..." Before Ava could finish her senten

    Isabella had been discouraged from singing throughout her life, so she immediately refused Ava's request. "Impossible, absolutely impossible." "Isabella, dear Isabella," Ava pleaded with a distressed face. "Please, I'm begging you." "Ava, are you out of your mind? A talent show wants me as a guest? Are you intentionally trying to make me look bad?" Isabella waved her hand, resisting. "Singers should be invited for singing, dancers for dancing. I'm an actress, not good at singing or dancing." "No one else is available for the show," Ava's expression turned sour. "Talent shows like this have lost their popularity. Three years ago, they were hot, but now even a recently debuted group is struggling with their popularity. 'Shining Youth' is the same. It just started airing, but the ratings are abysmal." Suppressing her anger, Isabella put on a smiling face and asked, "So, no one wants to take on this mess, and you want me to do it? I don't understand. Your brain must be malfunctioning,

    In the driver's seat, Ethan started the car and asked, "How did you come to the company?" Isabella didn't respond to his question and instead stared at Nathan's car, curious to know, "What's the relationship between Sherry and Nathan?" Upon hearing that, Ethan remained silent for a couple of seconds before responding, "Well... probably the same as us." Isabella paused for a moment, then scoffed sarcastically, saying, "You, Ryan, and Nathan, truly great buddies! No, wait, Ryan is better than you guys. At least he gives someone the status of a girlfriend, not some hidden secret." No, actually, Ryan is toying with emotions. None of them are good people! With one hand on the steering wheel, Ethan looked at Isabella's face, his smile hiding a deeper meaning, and asked, "What? Do you want a girlfriend too?" "No, it's not like that. I don't have one. Don't think too much!" Isabella denied three times, her face sincere, her tone earnest. Ethan squinted his eyes slightly, shifted his gaz

    Due to a meeting held by the director, there was no gossiping during the afternoon shoot. Everyone was focused on their work. At six o'clock, Isabella finished shooting and had plans to have dinner with Sherry and then meet with some members of the team for a two-hour rehearsal. The two of them agreed to meet at a restaurant near the set. After they met, they exchanged peculiar glances. They wanted to gossip, but they knew it wouldn't be appropriate. Finally, unable to contain their curiosity, they simultaneously spoke up... "You and Mr. Adams..." "You and Nathan..." They looked at each other and laughed. Isabella took Sherry's hand and said frankly, "Between Ethan and me, it's simple. I was attracted to his appearance, and he was attracted to mine." "That's purely straightforward," Sherry said with a faint smile, and added, "As for Nathan and me, I've been with him since I was eighteen." "Five years already?" Isabella recalled what Ethan had said and asked with some confusion, "

    There were a total of eight people in the rehearsal room, all dressed in training uniforms. Among them, one person stood out the most from the ordinary group. He had a tall figure and a smooth, fair face with distinct facial features. The clear light in his eyes changed from initial shock to guilt... Wow! Isn't this Elroy that the whole family has been looking for? Now Isabella finally understood why Elroy had been out of contact for a month. It was because talent shows are usually conducted in a closed environment where phones are confiscated. Sherry pulled Isabella and smiled as she introduced her to everyone, "This is your guest assistant Isabella!" "Wow, the teacher is so beautiful!" "Hello, everyone." Isabella smiled faintly. The faces of the youths were filled with various expressions. Sherry continued introducing the members of the group, and soon it came to Elroy, "This is the captain of your group, Elroy." After saying that, Sherry leaned close to Isabella's ear and whis

    Isabella drove back to the villa, opened the door, and entered. The living room was brightly lit, and the side profile of a man was illuminated by the light, his features clear and handsome. Seeing Ethan smoking, Isabella frowned and threw her handbag aside before walking over in her high heels."I told you not to smoke."Isabella approached and directly snatched the cigarette from the man's fingertips, extinguishing it. Then she sat on his lap, smoothly carrying out a series of actions."Why did you come back so early today?" Ethan held her waist, glanced at the clock on the wall, and his voice sounded colder than usual. "It's already ten. Isn't that early?""Isn't it? The nightlife has just begun!" Isabella blinked and smiled, completely unaware that something was off with the atmosphere. Holding his face, she was about to kiss his lips.However, Ethan avoided her, his dark eyes staring at Isabella intently as he asked, "Where were you?"Without having kissed him, Isabella looked at

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.

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.
