Their Bundle Of Joy

Chapter 29 A Title out of Her Reach

Isabel’s low-key attire didn’t match her identity as the partner of the richest man in Z Country as well as

a top ten ranking wife in the world.

“She is…” While looking at Isabel’s pale face, strangely enough, Aiden blurted out these words without

thinking.

But he was abruptly interrupted by Isabel beside him, “Aiden, we should go now, otherwise Daniel

would be late to his kindergarten.”

Daniel was Adam’s son. No matter how much she liked Aiden, she wouldn’t want to affect the

relationship between the two brothers.

Everything was so messy.

She was not worthy of her title.

She couldn’t foresee that the boy who had saved her a long time ago would become the richest man in

Z Country, as well as ranked in the top ten richest persons in the world…

That was something that was out of her reach.

In the distance, the sound of a police car siren was approaching them.

It had really arrived.

Abby was anxious right now as she said, “Isabel, stop right there.”

Aiden turned around and said coldly, “You should be the one who should stop right there. You dare to

hit someone related to me, you’ll be in custody for a month as well as fined for an amount of ten million

Yuan.”

If Isabel didn’t force him to leave, he would have let her slap Abby a few more times.

Isabel was the first partner that he had brought out into the public. No matter what kind of relationship

they had, he couldn’t see her getting bullied by anyone.

A few minutes later, two cars were leaving the Royal Crown Restaurant one after another.

The car in front was a Maybach which contained Aiden, Isabel and Daniel as they were speeding

towards Sage United School.

Although it looked like they were going to be late, when the three of them reached the kindergarten,

they were just in time. The class was going to start in ten minutes’ time.

Daniel who used to be a little kid almost looked like a mature adult after everything that had happened.

The car behind them was a police car. Abby didn’t believe Aiden until she was being arrested by the

police.

When she was actually taken into custody and fined for ten million Yuan, she finally learned of Aiden’s

determination.

But it was too late.

As Isabel was walking out of the kindergarten feeling reluctant to leave her child, her phone had been

ringing for a few times with incoming calls.

“Are you still worried about him?” Aiden saw that Isabel was not following his pace, so he stopped while

frowning at Isabel, who was hesitating a lot. He was amused by her.

“A… A little.” Isabel scratched her head in embarrassment. The Sage United School was not the same

as the kindergarten she used to get Daniel enrolled previously. This was a full-time boarding school,

but the kid can go home every weekend. The students here had the choice of going home once a

month or even once a year.

It was very flexible.

When Isabel mulled over the thought that she wouldn’t be seeing Daniel for a week, she felt a little

nervous.

“Based on how independent and smart Daniel is, I don’t think there’s anything for you to worry about. I

think you should check your phone instead.”

Her phone had been ringing all the time, which was quite annoying.

“Oh, you’re right, thanks for reminding me.”

Isabel immediately checked her phone and saw that there were a few missed calls.

These calls were made by only two people.

One of them was Celia Wyatt, her best friend.

Another was Henry White, her father.

From the moment she had returned to the country, she hadn’t been in touch with anybody yet.

She was planning to get in touch with Celia after she had settled down, but she didn’t expect Celia to

get in touch with her first.

As for Henry, there could only be one reason he was calling her at this moment. It must be because of

Abby.

Her phone number had never been changed before.

Despite that, her father had never gotten in touch with her for the past five years.

He was never concerned about her life all this time.

Isabel immediately returned Celia’s calls, “Celia, long time no see.”

“At least you are aware that we haven’t seen each other for a long time. You didn’t even let me know

that you’re back in the country and let me go to the airport to welcome you. Isabel, you have gone too

far this time.”

Isabel felt sorry for her as she replied, “I will go look for you after I have settled down.”

“I want to see Daniel, I know that he’s back too.”

Isabel was astonished as she retorted, “How did you know that?”

“I saw him in a video few days ago, it seems that he’s wanted by someone throughout the city. I initially

thought that he was another person’s child, until today when I saw you and Daniel appearing together.

That is how I found out that you’re back in the country.”

“What video are you talking about?”

“It’s on the FlyingFish network. You were slapping Abby in that video, which is so refreshing. You

should have hit her long ago. Anyway, do you want to have dinner with me tonight?”

“Let’s make it on Sunday. Daniel wants to see you too, but I have some translation job this week. I think

I can finish it by Saturday. After that, I will bring Daniel and ask you out for a dinner. What do you

think?” Isabel remembered that she still had some translation work she had to complete soon.

“Alright, let’s make it that way. See you on Sunday night.”

After she hung up the phone, Aiden was already waiting by the car, “Get into the car.”

Aiden had flung open the door to the passenger seat. Isabel entered the car without hesitation.

Henry was calling her again. She hesitated for a while but decided that she couldn’t avoid him forever.

She answered the call immediately, “Hi dad.”

Although she had called him that, but there was no sign of familiarity and warmth in her voice. All that

was left was a distant coldness.

“Isabel, your sister was arrested just now and she was even fined for ten million Yuan. If she can’t pay

up, she will be jailed for one year. Isabel, can you put in a word to Aiden for your sister’s sake? So that

there is a possibility of overturning this decision. Abby will never repeat her mistakes again.”

Henry was acting so anxious only because he had learned that the chief executive officer of the

Howard Group was now backing her. He could never in his life teach Isabel a lesson anymore.

His priority was now to get Abby out of the police’s custody.

“This…”

“Isabel, five years ago when you run away from your marriage, Mr. Barrett had decided to pull away his

funds which were initially used to invest in the Q.D. Group. The Q.D. Group was on the verge of

bankruptcy because of this. You didn’t fulfil my orders back then, but now I am begging you for this one

time, do you think you can help me?”

Isabel remembered how she was being forced to marry Robert Barrett back then, and how she was

being drugged helplessly. She remained silent at this end of the phone.

“Isabel, where are you now? Let me kneel down in front of you, alright?”

Isabel was moved slightly as she had never seen her father, Henry, being so humble and submissive.

“Alright, I…”

Before Isabel could finish her sentence, her phone was snatched away and the call ended abruptly.

“No way.” Aiden had decided in her place, “If Abby could do what she had done without punishment,

she will repeat her actions again in the future. If you compromise now, she will come back to haunt you

in a more severe way.”

If he was not there, Isabel would have been bullied by Abby mercilessly. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“But she’s still my sister after all, and now that my father…”

“You are treating her as your sister, but does she treat you as her younger sister? Or do you think that

you deserved that treatment five years ago?” Five years ago, if he hadn’t sent her to the police station,

she would now be married to Robert.

After that incident, he had sent someone to investigate the matter.

But when he finally got his hands on some information, she had already left the detention centre and

went abroad.

They were only reunited after five long years.

When she mentioned that she had been pregnant with Adam’s child, he thought that she was joking.

But to his surprise, she really came back with a son by her side.

But when he saw her interacting with Adam, he couldn’t be sure whether the child actually belonged to

Adam or not.
