Isabel asked, “What is that you want to do in Southboro? Why must you finish whatever you want to do, only then you can be with me openly?”

A quick thought later, Isabel frowned and added, “Were we not together openly before?”

As far as she knew, they were quite open with their relationship.

“It’s a long story. Let’s get you out first,” Roland said. He held her hand and wanted to leave.

Isabel did not move. She said coldly, “If you don’t make things clear now, I won’t leave with you.”

She refused to follow him. If she followed him out and he brushed her off with some excuse again, she would not be able to do anything against him.

Roland sighed helplessly. “Isabel, only with your family’s approval can we be together openly.”

Isabel thought of when Flint called her mentioning Roland’s departure from the company. Flint told her that her father disagreed with them being together, so Roland left the company.

However, it was not a big deal to her.

Isabel said, “I can handle my dad. My mom, my brother, and Flint, they all respected my decision. If I want to be with you, they won’t stop me.”
