The atmosphere in the room gradually became ambiguous... After it was over, Isabella was exhausted and didn't know how she fell asleep. The next day, she was awakened by the alarm clock, and before she could open her eyes, Isabella felt sore all over her body. She silently stared at the ceiling.The scenes from last night replayed in her mind. She recalled that the initial tenderness was all fake, and later Ethan was simply inhuman. He was domineering and disregarded her resistance, as if seeking revenge and venting.After some time, Isabella finally got up from the bed and took out her phone to check Lisa's schedule for the day. She felt even more mentally exhausted.After freshening up, Isabella went downstairs. Surprisingly, Ethan was still at home, casually sitting at the dining table and having breakfast.Isabella glanced at him resentfully and cursed him silently in her heart, calling him a despicable man. Then she slowly walked over and sat across from him.Ethan raised his gaz
Isabella and Lisa separated. As Isabella walked towards the parking lot, she heard a voice behind her."Isabella, wait a moment."Isabella halted her steps and turned around to see the creepy man standing behind her.With a round face and a smile, he looked at Isabella and said, "Don't pay attention to Gracie's words. I think you're a talented actress and perfect for the leading role in this movie.""Is that so?" Isabella sneered."Yes, let's go to a nearby café and chat. Not only about the female lead in this play, but also about the resources of my company. Whatever you want, I can provide it for you."The man looked at Isabella's enchanting face and felt a tingling sensation in his heart.Isabella crossed her arms and spoke with a sly smile, "A café? How about going directly to a hotel?"Upon hearing this, a trace of disbelief flashed through the man's eyes, but the smile on his face deepened. "Sure... a hotel sounds good! Isabella, you're quite straightforward."He liked that. Say
After finishing her makeup and changing into a formal dress, Isabella and several models started rehearsing for the fashion show. In the blink of an eye, it was already dark outside. At that moment, Ethan had just left the company and was on his way to a business meeting.Sitting in the backseat, Ethan was still dressed in a black suit, his handsome face covered with a faint layer of frost, emanating a cold aura. His gaze was fixed on his phone, which displayed a message from the director that was sent in the afternoon."Mr. Adams, I have called all the actors to assemble.""Isabella... It seems like something is going on with Isabella. She said she wouldn't come even if I held a knife to her neck."Impatiently, Ethan closed his phone, feeling a surge of anger inside him. Terry, who was driving the car, could vaguely sense that the CEO was in a bad mood, so he became extra cautious and drove carefully.Upon arriving at the restaurant for the social engagement, Ethan got out of the car
After leaving the fashion show, Ethan didn't go to find Isabella. Instead, he was called by Nathan and Ryan to a entertainment club. Both of them could tell that Ethan was in a bad mood. Though his face was always cold, today it seemed different."What's wrong? Is something wrong with the company?" Nathan asked.Ryan, who had called all the women out of the private room and sat across from them, had a mischievous smile on his face. "When have you ever seen his company in trouble? It's obviously love trouble!"Ethan narrowed his eyes slightly, emanating a dangerous aura.Ryan wasn't afraid and continued probing, "Is it because of Isabella?"Ethan fell silent. Ryan and Nathan exchanged a glance, and they had their answer. They were clearly surprised. "Tell us, let us share your worries!"Ethan glanced at Ryan, who was full of gossip, and although he seemed reluctant to mention Isabella in front of him, he thought about it and slowly began, "Alexander used to pursue Isabella. When she wa
Isabella unexpectedly fell into his arms, still hearing his words echoing in her ears, "I went to see you." Initially, it was just an ordinary statement, but it made her heart race and her expression appear calm. "See me? Do you need to be with Kathy to see me?" "I didn't receive an invitation." That explanation left Isabella speechless, but she still felt a bit displeased. Ethan played with her hair, his tone casual. "Although I've known Kathy for years, I don't like her, and I won't marry her." "Really?" Isabella's tone held a hint of doubt. Ethan nodded. Seeing his response, Isabella's mood improved significantly. She hugged Ethan's neck and spoke dominantly, "Fine, from now on, you're not allowed to pay attention to her." Ethan's lips curled up slightly. Ah, she was jealous. "What about Alexander?" Ethan asked. "I won't pay attention to him either!" Isabella blurted out without much thought. Only then did Ethan seem satisfied. Seeing Isabella yawn, he lifted her up and sa
Isabella looked at the words on her phone screen, a cold smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. Beside her, Ava became anxious, her temper flaring up again. "Can't you use your brain before you speak? She was just giving you some guidance. Can't you bear with it? There are cameras in the audition room. Mocking a senior in public, you...!""That wasn't guidance. She deliberately tried to undermine me. She said things that weren't shown in the video. You have no idea how offensive they were," Isabella put away her phone, a smile of satisfaction on her face. "Besides, ten years ago, she relied on her brother who worked at the television station and bribed the judges behind the awards. She won an award with a terrible TV series. What else can you call her if not an actress without any talent?"Ava furrowed her brows, her expression paused. "How do you know all this?"These were things she didn't know."My mom told me," Isabella replied."How does your mom know?" Ava was puzzled. Wasn'
Adams Group. Terry knocked on the door and entered the office."Boss, I've taken care of everything you asked for," Terry said.Ethan looked at his computer and nodded. "By the way, Boss, Isabella..."At Ethan's words, his gaze on the computer screen paused, and then he looked at Terry. "What happened to her?"Terry quickly informed Ethan about what had happened online.Ethan opened Twitter, pondered for a moment, and then spoke slowly, "Go and contact the director... "After listening to Ethan's instructions, Terry nodded. "Okay.""Report to me immediately if there's any news about her.""I understand, Boss," Terry replied calmly, but inside, he was extremely shocked.Isabella thought the matter had blown over. She had been focused on filming all morning and didn't intend to pay any attention to those who called her a vase. She believed that everything would be proven once the movie was released.At noon, while she was having lunch, Lisa came over."Look! Our director did an excellen
While Isabella enjoyed a comfortable life, Kathy and Gracie weren't feeling as happy. Kathy, enraged by the news she read online, smashed her phone in anger."Auntie, I'm sorry. I didn't expect Isabella to record our conversation. That despicable woman," Kathy exclaimed.Recalling their conversation from that day, Isabella pretended not to hear and asked Kathy to repeat herself. It turned out that everything had been planned in advance. Gracie bent down to pick up the broken phone, looking disapprovingly at Kathy."You need to change your temper," Gracie said with dissatisfaction."Auntie," Kathy pouted and snorted, "Someone must be helping Isabella behind the scenes. Auntie, do you think it could be Ethan? What exactly is their relationship now?" Kathy's anxiety grew as she thought about it.Gracie crossed her arms and remained calm. "Whoever it is, what does it matter? So what if Ethan and Isabella have something going on? Take Eric, for example. Eric likes Isabella, but would Mrs.
