Chapter 154 Utter Chaos
Isabella flipped through her suitcase–the one Yuvan had personally delivered and placed in the cabinet.
She opened it, searching for her phone. However, after going through the empty suitcase and feeling through each piece of clothing, she still couldn’t find her phone anywhere.
“Ms. Morgan, it’s time for your medication, a servant’s voice came from outside.
Then she heard the servant say in a displeased tone, “Why did you mess up the room like this?”
Isabella asked in the same displeased tone, “Where’s my phone?”
She needed to make a call!
She had to call Yuvan and Cedric.
She needed to leave this place!
Christina… she was too terrifying!
What she had seen before was nothing compared to now.
This time, Christina had truly revealed her true colors before Isabella.
Isabella had to admit that the woman was frightening!
She shuddered to think what kind of poisonous methods Christina had used to deal with all the other
women who had once pursued Cedric.
Poisonous wasn’t even an exaggerated description when it came to Christinal
Christina liked Cedric, and she adored him. That was an overwhelming kind of love. If she couldn’t have
him, she would destroy anyone who tried to take him!
In the end, only she would remain.
That was Christina’s goal.
“Ms. Johnson said your eyes are not in good condition right now, If you need or want to contact someone, just let us know directly. She has already taken your phone!” The servant said flatly, her voice devoid of any sympathy.
This kind of Indifference made Isabella even angrier.
right does she have to take my things? she roared, the sound reverberating in the room but unable
“Ms. Morgan, you should just be content. The Johnson family will take care of everything you need. All you have to do is take care of eating and sleeping!”
The servant’s words essentially meant for Isabella to wait for death passively!
Thinking about her situation, Isabella felt a chill up her spine. She had never imagined she would end up in
such a plight.
First, she lost her eyesight with no hope of recovery.
Now, this…!
It was as if she couldn’t go to heaven, but there was no way to get into hell either!
The servant put down the medicine and left, leaving Isabella alone in the room. She didn’t bother to tidy
up the now chaotic space and headed straight to Christina to report.
“She wants to call Master Cedric,”
“I see!” Christina nodded with a smile.
She wanted to call Cedric!?
She was deluding herself!
Since the first day Isabella came here, Christina had confiscated her phone. Now, if she wanted to contact anyone, she had to get Christina’s permission.
“Take good care of her, understood?”
“Yes, ma’am!” The servant nodded.
Taking good care of her was a must. Christina wouldn’t mistreat Isabella openly; after all, Rebecca was watching.
However, there was much more that Christina wouldn’t allow under her watch.
Moreover, not allowing her to contact Cedric was Rebecca’s decision. And if Isabella were to complain to Rebecca, it would be pointless.
becca always believed Christina’s side of the story!
servant left, Christina glanced at her newly done nails in a great mood
Just then, her phone rang.
It was a call from that person.
She answered, “Hello.”
“Your mother went to Sylvan Gems today to meet Natalie.”
“What?”
Christina was shocked. Her face changed when she heard this news, and her previously good mood
soured.
“It seems like she couldn’t get anything from the Lamberts, so she wants to focus on Natalie. After all,
Stephen is Natalie’s uncle. So, the Johnson family won’t lose out!”
“Heh, is that so? Christina sneered.
So, Natalie was now an available option.
She thought that Rebecca was prideful enough that she wouldn’t go looking for Natalie. She assumed Rebecca would look for another young lady from one of the wealthy families.
Now, it seemed that Rebecca’s pride wasn’t as strong as Christina thought.
And as for her original lack of urgency, now she probably…!
She narrowed her beautiful eyes and said, “I got it.”
After that, she hung up the phone. Her clear, bright eyes were now covered in a sinister glint.
After Rebecca left, Natalie returned to her office. She scrolled through her phone with long, slender fingers.
Zane came in. “Ms. Walker!”
Do I have anything on for tomorrow?”
Zane checked the schedule. “Mr. Lynch from the state of Emerald is coming tomorrow. Would you like to meet him?:
Natalie shook her head. “You handle it. If there’s nothing else important, I have some personal matters to attend to tomorrow.
Alright!
After Zane left, Natalie reached into the drawer and took out the exhibition ticket her uncle had given her
before.
As Stephen had predicted, now that their relationship was exposed…!
Her world was on the verge of collapse.
Rebecca’s appearance today also made her realize what she was facing now, and it seemed that there
would be more to come.
Tapping on her phone, she called Irwin, who answered promptly in a gentle voice.
This was the first time Natalie had called him outside of work matters.
“Do you have some time tomorrow?”
“Hmm? What for?”
“There’s an art exhibition. I want you to accompany me.”
“Sure.”
“How about we leave together from Elegance Bay at ten tomorrow morning?”
She probably wouldn’t come into the company tomorrow.
“Wait a moment.”
The man on the other end didn’t immediately agree. Natalie heard Irwin discussing the time with his secretary.
Soon, he said, “I have a morning meeting. Send me the location of the art exhibition, and I’ll meet you there directly.”
“Okay.
After she hung up, Natalie looked at the address on the exhibition ticket and sent a photo of it to Irwin. The man must be busy, as he didn’t reply this time.
After a meeting in the afternoon, Natalie finished organizing her work. With nothing much else to do, she Called Blanca.
“Hey. Want to have dinner together?”
“Sure, I’m done here. I’ll come to you right away.”
“No need. I’ll pick you up!” Natalie said.
“Nice. 17l be waiting!”
With that, she hung up. Natalie stood up, put on her coat, grabbed her bag, and headed out.
As she walked to the lobby, someone entered from the front door.
It was Christina.
Natalie’s eyes dimmed when she saw her. The receptionist approached, but Christina went straight to
Natalie.
“Miss…
The receptionist felt a bit annoyed as Christina strutted around as if she owned the place.
Natalie waved her hand dismissively. The receptionist breathed a sigh of relief and stepped back.
Christina surveyed the surroundings. This was the first time Christina met Natalie with a purpose since Natalie divorced Cedric.
“Not bad. I heard about it before, but seeing it now, it’s still a bit surprising!”
The mocking tone concealed her envy, especially when she noticed the handmade custom outfit on Natalie.
Back when Natalie was with Cedric, she used to wear limited edition items that were enough to make Christina jealous.
Now that Natalie had left the Johnson family, she seemed to be doing better than expected instead of the anticipated downfall!
“Why are you here?” Natalie asked in an icy tone as she raised her wrist to check the time. Christina’s emotions surged when she saw the style and brand of the watch on Natalie’s wrist.
