Chapter 48 Isabella’s Request

Natalie didn’t agree to go back to the Johnson Manor for Elizabeth’s birthday, and Cedric was getting increasingly agitated.

At least today, the design submitted to him was satisfactory.

However, with Natalie causing a commotion, his mood…!

“Yuvan!”

“Yes, sir. Where would you like to go?” Yuvan asked.

After leaving the cafe, Cedric wandered around for a while, and Yuvan was uncertain about his

destination.

In the past few days, Cedric grew noticeably colder each time they approached Scarlet Villa. The driver and Yuvan were eager to drop him off at the end of each day, worried their hearts wouldn’t endure the

Cedric’s mood was even worse.

It seemed they wouldn’t have an easy time tonight.

They soon arrived at the hospital, and Yuvan followed Cedric to the ward.

Inside the hospital room, Isabella’s eyes were covered by a white cloth. Her long black hair cascaded down, and she sat on the bed. She looked delicate and vulnerable, evoking sympathy to everyone who saw her.

“You’re here,” she said before Cedric could speak.

Her voice was gentle and soothing to the ears.

Cedric was momentarily distracted. Without waiting for him to respond, Isabella smiled and continued, “I was impulsive before. If she doesn’t want to apologize, it doesn’t matter to me.”

She was referring to the incident where she asked Natalie to apologize to her.

The first time Cedric was here, he learned that Isabella knew how Natalie had bought off those thugs.
