Loveless Marriage

Chapter 57 Why Is He Here?

She frowned and hesitated. After a few seconds, she gritted her teeth and said, "Sorry …I haven't

made up my mind yet. "

She really didn't know what to do. For no reason, she just couldn't have the same feeling for him as for

Christian.

Considering many factors in reality, she was seriously getting along with him during this period.

Nevertheless, after such a long time, she still feel him more of a normal friend than boyfriend or

husband.

Luke looked at her, whose eyes grew dim for just one second, but his smile was still very gentle, "No

worries. I'll wait. As long as you don't reject me, I still have my confidence."

Isabella gratefully looked at him, while the guilt in her heart increased at the same time. She should

make up her mind as soon as possible, as not to waster Luke's time.

Then Luke went out to buy some food. Isabella stayed in the ward with Rachel. Suddenly, she received

a call from Mr. Smith.

"Hi, Mr. Smith."

"Miss Jones, did you get to know Mr. Simons a few days ago?"

"Yes, we chatted for a bit, but I couldn't introduce our company to him properly before he left."

She lost the phone number that she managed so hard to get.

However, Mr. Smith didn't mind at all. He smiled, "It's okay, just now his secretary sent an invitation for

me as well as you. We'll meet this afternoon. If you are free, can you make it? "

"…"

Right now?

Isabella looked at Diana who was still putting on the drip, then asked: "Did he ask for me to show up?"

"Yes." Mr. Smith also felt weird that Simons even remembered her.

Isabella sighed.

Mr. Smith sensed something, "Are you free? Do you want me to explain it to them? "

He couldn't force her, since it was a temporary decision.

"No it's okay. Please send me the address and time. I'll be there right away." Isabella didn't refuse at

the end.

As a manager, it was her responsibility to put the company's interests in the main place. Also, Mr.

Smith was a compassionate leader to some extent, so she couldn't put him on the spot too much.

"Okay, okay. Let me know when you get there. I'll give you extra bonus at the end this month. You have

my words."

Isabella smiled, "Thank you so much, Mr. Smith."

F*ck that, she had no morals in front of money.

After hanging up the phone, she found the nurse and told her to take care of Diana. After she returned

to the ward, Luke had already been back.

"Isabella, come for lunch."

Isabella said embarrassingly, "Sorry, Luke, I just received a call from the company. I need to deal with

some urgent matters."

Luke's expression didn't change at all, despite that he was a bit surprised. He just asked: "Do you have

to go now? You've not eaten anything yet till nao. You take care of your body no matter how busy your

work is. "

Being a little dissatisfied, Diana complained: "Didn't your boss know what's weekend? Why does he

always let you work overtime? Didn't you tell him that I'm injured and need you to stay with me? "

Isabella and Luke looked at each other, then she said. "Mom, you are absolutely NO.1 in my heart. I

just told every detail to the nurse and you can rest at ease. I'll come back as soon as I finish work."

Luke also laughed, then said: "I'm free this afternoon, so Rachel and I will stay here with you, Mrs.

Jones."

Isabella was startled, she looked at him, "Luke, there is no need to trouble you. I've talked to the nurse

and you don't have to stay here with her." Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"I need someone to stay with me. I just want to chat with Luke! It seems that he is more filial than you."

Diana then urged her in a bad mood, "Go, leave! quickly finish your meal… Don't let your big boss wait

too long. "

Isabella, "..."

She just casually ate a little, then was chased out of the ward by Diana.

She went home first to get changed, then drove to the hotel.

At around 3 pm, Isabella saw Mr. Smith, Mr. Simons and several people at jadeite forest restaurant.

In the private room decorated in an antique style, there were two people sitting on the floor and making

tea together. Smoking curled up from the incense burner.

Inside room, there was another woman as well, who eemed to be Shawn's secretary.

As they were chatting, Shawn saw Isabella and said: "Miss Jones, come over."

Isabella revealed a dignified smile, and she then respectfully nodded: "Hi, Mr. Smith, Mr. Simons."

The handsome and calm man put down the celadon cup in his hand, then looked at her with a faint

smile, "Miss Jones, I thought that you would call me after the royal ball, but I overestimated my charm."

Hearing that, Isabella was immediately embarrassed. She then forced out a smile: "I was just afraid

that you may be too busy, and I have to prepare everything well and invite you formally."

How could she invite him since she lost his phone number?

"Have a sit." Shawn said with a warm expression.

His secretary then put a cushion behind her.

"Thanks."

Isabella slowly sat down on her knees, but she hadn't got used to such posture. Furthermore, she was

pregnant for a few months, so she felt very uncomforable and almost fell.

Shawn quickly supported her and his large palm firmly held onto her shoulders. He smiled faintly and

said, "Be careful. Do you need a chair."

Isabella sat steadily immediately, then shook her head in embarrassment: "No, I'm okay."

"Don't worry." Shawn passed her a cup of tea. His black eyes were calm and deep, "Just like last time,

you can talk what you hadn't finished."

Isabella blushed with her head lowered, "I taught fish to swim last time. Now, I better not make a joke in

front of you and Mr. Smith. I came here to study today, so I'm all ears. "

"Indeed, with three business veterans here today, it would be kind hard for you to have a talk."

Isabella was stunned, "Three?"

She glanced at Shawn's secretary, who was a very young and beautiful lady.

Shawn laughed, smelled the tea and said, "There is still one more to come, who is late."

Isabella understood and nodded. Suddenly, she heard something behind, then she subconsciously

turned her head. When she saw him, her eyes froze.

The tall figure with such a perfect handsome face, who else could it be other than Christian Miller?

Isabella's face turned ugly. Her heart

Why was he here?

Did he even know Mr. Simons?

But it wasn't strange at all. Their were all business giants, and they were also big names, so it shouldn't

be strange for them to know each other.
