Contract Marriage Devil's Trap

Chapter 37: Break the Ice 

Isabella knew she had seen something she shouldn't, so when the middle-aged man made a move on Erin, she had already hidden behind a tree.

It would be extremely awkward if she walked over at this time.

It was only when the man left that Isabella stepped out of the tree.

When she arrived at the entrance, Isabella realized Erin hadn't gone far.

She could tell the panic in Erin's eyes when the noticed her.

"Bella? Wh-why are you here?"

Erin glanced at Isabella and asked warily.

"Oh, I went the back street to buy breakfast today, so I took this route"

Isabella managed to come up with an excuse in a hurry.

Puzzled, Erin asked, "Did you see anything just now?"

"See what? I didn't see a single person when I walked over."

Isabella looked back at Erin in confusion.

Hearing that, Erin was finally at ease.

From the looks of it, Isabella didn't seem to have seen who she was with just now.

Isabella also prayed silently that Erin wouldn't press it further.

She wasn't good at lying.

If Erin continued asking, she would probably be exposed.

She didn't even know where could she bought the breakfast in the back street! A few nurses had mentioned it before and she just happened to have heard it.

"Ah...it's nothing.I heard a loud sound just now, so I thought something happened."

Erin shook her head and answered innocently.

Seeing the look on Erin's face, Isabella couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

It really wasn't wise to judge people by their appearance.

If she hadn't seen that scene today, she would never have thought Erin would have such a different side.

However, she didn't intend to tell anyone about this.

She wasn't someone who liked to stir up trouble.

She had enough issues and problems in her life, so any more trouble wasn't welcomed at all.

"Okay, let's go."

Isabella nodded in response.

The two entered the building together but parted ways right after.

With her sharp eyes, Skyler saw Isabella from afar, but when she saw the person beside Isabella, Skyler widened her eyes in shock.Why was Erin with Isabella?! 

"Erin! Erin!"

Skyler quickly caught up to Erin.

When Erin heard someone calling her, she turned around and saw Skyler running over.
