52 Stealing My Man From Me?

After the happy breakfast time, Joseph went to work and Charlie left to attend some social activities. Isabella just stayed in the Wilson Manor to rest herself.

Charlie had asked William to ask a day off for her so that she could rest.

With piles of delicacies in the kitchen in front of her, Isabella accepted this decision with satisfaction.

“Grandpa, take care.”

As the Wilsons had very strict family rules, everyone, from servants to Joseph and Isabella, needed to escort Charlie to the main door and watch him leave. Only when Charlie disappeared out of the sight would Joseph go upstairs to change into a suit.

Isabella stood at the door with one foot and was about to go back when she saw a kitten with tiger-skin patterns quickly passing through the bushes.

“What? Are there cats in the manor?” wondered Isabella.

“They are street cats.”

William also saw the kitten walk through the bushes and said with a smile, “It must be seeking some food here. The manor is very big and in the suburbs where few people would travel. It is very common to see them in and out.”

“I see.” Isabella said excitedly, “I’ll go out for a walk later and see if I can see them. I like small animals very much.”

When her father, Aaron, was still alive, Isabella remembered that they kept a pet cat at home.

Later, she had to move into the Smiths with her mother after her father’s death. The cat seemed to be thrown away or gave away.

At that time, she had been sad for a long time.

“Miss Isabella, if you like animals, you can go to the zoo in the southwest corner of the manor. I’ll ask the maid to accompany you.” William suggested.

“A zoo?” Isabella said happily, “Can I go? Then I...”

“How could you go? They don’t like idiots like you!”

Joseph walked down the stairs and put on his coat while saying coldly, “If your foot is well, then you can go to school. I didn’t build the manor for you to visit for fun.”

Hearing this, Isabella immediately lowered her head out of disappointment, but she didn’t dare to retort Joseph, who clearly was in a bad mood. God knew why he acted so angrily in the morning. Isabella said honestly, “I will stay in my room and rest today. I won’t go anywhere.”

Joseph snorted coldly and went straight out the door.

Looking at his tall and handsome back, Isabella sighed, “Isn’t Joseph a bit schizophrenic? Why does he always turn against me every time the conversation goes well? Even if he doesn’t like me, he doesn’t need to be mean to me, right? I did nothing to provoke him.”

William smiled and explained, “Mr. Joseph has been like this since he brought you back last night. Perhaps it’s because he is anxious about your wound.”

“He is anxious for me?”

Isabella seemed to have heard a big joke. She gestured to William, “William, you weren’t at the hospital yesterday. When I was in the hospital getting treated, he looked like as if I owed him a lot of money! He asked someone to carry me and leave! He didn’t even care if I like it or not!”

William still smiled and said, “Doctor Morris is an expert and can give your wound a better care so it would heal more effectively. You misunderstood Mr. Joseph.”

“No way! I misunderstood him? That’s not the point! The point is his attitude!”

Isabella expressed her dissatisfaction as she putting her hands on her waist angrily, “I have become a limp. Why can’t he be nice to me? I’m not demanding him, but he scolded me many times along the way! He accused me of being self-overestimated and indiscreet in my speech and act. He said that I just sowed the seeds of my own ruin. Have I offended him before?”

William’s facial expression froze for a while and he said, “That could be ... well, that Mr. Joseph regretted that he didn’t protect you well...”

“What?”

Unable to continue this topic, William directly changed to another one, “Speaking of which, Miss Isabella, I made a lot of desserts for you since I knew that you won’t go to school today... ”

“Wow! Really, can I go directly to the kitchen and pick some for myself?” Sure enough, Isabella was more interested in food.

“Of course.” William smiled.

Since neither Joseph nor Charlie would come back for lunch, Isabella spent most of the day in a carefree manner.

The chef, maids and even William were all very fond of this cheerful and lively girl.

Probably because the atmosphere of the Wilsons was too depressing, everyone felt very comfortable when they met such a fun hostess.

However, good time never lasted long. Not long after the lunch time, Isabella’s bad luck returned.

A call from the Smiths urged her to go back immediately.

It was from Rosa. When on the phone, Rosa spoke in a low voice.

After thinking for a long time, Isabella couldn’t figure out what she had done that might provoke Carl recently. So she gave up and asked William to prepare a car to take her to the nearby streets.

Then she limped back to the Smiths’ house.

As soon as she entered, Isabella immediately felt a tense atmosphere.

Rosy sat on the sofa in a professional suit, with her arms crossed and a cold expression on her face.

Apparently, she came back directly from the company.

Carl also looked strange.

“Rosy, hi.” Isabella greeted carefully.

“You’re finally back?”

Rosy sneered. Before Isabella could change her shoes, Rosy stood up and walked over angrily. She kicked Isabella’s injured right foot without any reason!

“Rosy, what are you doing?”

Isabella screamed in pain. Seeing that, Rosa immediately stood up and asked worriedly, “Isabella!”

“What am I doing?”

Rosy pulled up Isabella’s ponytail and questioned, “I should be the one asking you this question.”

As she spoke, Rosy took out a newspaper and pulled Isabella’s head upwards and said, “You dare to steal my man from me. Do you want to die?”

On the front page of the newspaper, the headline read ‘The mysterious girlfriend of Lukas Shaw, the famous young actor’ and there was a photo of Isabella hugging Lukas tightly in the hospital attached.

Of course, the picture of Lukas comfortably kissing Isabella’s forehead was also captured by the paparazzi.

“This is a misunderstanding!” Isabella’s eyes widened.

“Misunderstanding? You two are so close in the picture. Do you think I’m blind or an idiot?”

Rosy pulled Isabella to the ground with great force and fiercely kicked her in the stomach. “Bitch, I know you wouldn’t be good for too long. You are such a cheap woman.”

“Rosy, Isabella said it was a misunderstanding. Can you listen to her explanation before you get angry?”

Rosa finally couldn’t help but run forward to grab Rosy’s hand, pleading, “Lukas is about to get engaged to you. How could he have anything to do with Isabella?”

“Who do you think you are?”

Rosy shook Rosa off, “Like mother like daughter. You two both like to steal others’ men.”

“I hurt my foot and the doctor asked Lukas to hold me down!”

Seeing Rosa being overthrown on the ground, Isabella hurriedly hugged Rosy’s leg and said, “If you don’t believe me, just ask Lukas! Don’t involve my mother in this!”

“You hurt your foot?”

Rosy suddenly turned around and a sinister look flashed across her eyes. She stepped on Isabella’s injured ankle and fiercely said, “Is this one?”
