Chapter 259

259 Picked Up Husband

Isabella smiled and tidied up her messy hair, she said thoughtfully, “I think that young lady is quite sweet and cute. Cedric, are you really sure that she is a bad girl?”

Cedric smiled and did not comment. Then, she walked to the dining table and picked up the high heels that Isabella had thrown. She bowed to put the shoes on Isabella, “to be honest, I don’t like quiet people.”

Isabella hurriedly crouched down. “Cedric, that’s embarrassing! I can do it myself.”

“That’s because you helped me. Why embarrassed?”

Cedric insisted on putting high heels on Isabella. “The dishes on the table were dirty. Let’s change to another.”

“So I can get a meal?” Isabella said with a smile.

“Of course, if you do not go back and cook for your boyfriend hurriedly.” Cedric also smiled.

“He never cocks and is not at home now. He always eats better than me.”

Cedric smiled and held Isabella’s wrist to walk to another table beside. She asked a waiter to take the menu and order again.

.....

Isabella raised the large menu folder and thought of something. She looked around sharply and whispered, “Cedric, I have a question.”

“Speak.”

Cedric poured a glass of red wine for Isabella.

“There is no other guest except us, could it be that the food is not delicious?” Isabella asked worriedly.

Cedric was stunned and curved her lips into a smile. Then, she leaned forward and said mysteriously, “That’s because I don’t like being disturbed when I’m dating.”

“Oh, I see!”

Isabella praised, “Now is good. I was thinking before I came that if someone recognized me, wouldn’t I clean anymore even jump into the Yellow River?”

“You can even say that you had five abortions. You put in too much effort.”

“Save others completely like people send Buddha to heaven.”

Isabella said happily, “You have to be more thorough in the play. I am a good-for-nothing actress, I have to do my best when helping Cedric!”

“Good.”

Cedric couldn’t help but laugh, “have you ordered the dishes? Are you hungry? Order whatever you want to eat. There’s no need to be shy, just treat it as Cedric’s reward.”

“Ok, alright, I want a lot and still hesitating.”

Isabella looked at the order and finally made a decision. “How about spicy lobster and French goose liver? I have never eaten them before. They sound very expensive. You can order the rest.”

Cedric nodded and gestured for the waiter to come over. “A set of seafood and all the specialties on the first three pages, please.”

“Yes!”

“No! Too wasteful!”

Isabella hurriedly pulled Cedric and said in surprise, “there are dozens of dishes. We can’t eat them all!”

“You don’t have to eat them all. Just try a little of each type because you haven’t tried them before.”

“But too wasteful...”

“Why don’t you call Octavio to come over? He likes food too,” Isabella said.

Cedric said helplessly, “he should be very busy at this time, we better not disturb him.”

“That’s true.”

Isabella put the phone away, thought for a moment and smiled, “If we can’t eat them all, we can pack them up. Thank you, Cedric, for bringing me so much delicious food!”

“Don’t mention thank you in the future.”

“Isabella, ever since I confirmed that you were that Isabella from back then, I felt like found the treasure that I had lost for many years. I really wanted to cherish you, did you know?”

“Yes, yes! Me too!”

Isabella said excitedly, “it’s like we found a long-lost relative! We are connected!”

Cedric looked at Isabella’s excited face. He said gently with flashed eyes, “yes, we have always been relatives, the closest people...”

...

Cedric sent Isabella home after dinner. Considering that could not reveal her relationship with Joseph yet, Isabella asked Cedric to send her to school and change another car to return to the Wilson Manor.

Isabella lay on the bed in the evening, holding the photo of Slike and feeling pleased.

Good things came one after another recently. Isabella had already been overwhelmed by happiness. She fell in love with a man who can be relied on first and she met Cedric now.

She believed that she would quickly find out the truth about her father’s explosion case in the restaurant because of good luck. Moreover, she had decided that once Joseph returned, she would act like a spoiled child and ask him to take her mother from the Smith’s.

Even the famous “Stella kidnapping case” seemed to have been solved. Successfully rescuing Stella, Isabella really felt that the heavens had finally opened their eyes and fulfilled all her recent wishes.

With this thought in mind, Isabella called Joseph to hear his voice.

“Ding...di...”

Sounding a strange busy tone, Isabella frowned, “what is this sound? It’s not a hanging up. What happened?”

She felt a little strange and called Joseph a few more times. Hearing the same voice, she hurried downstairs and asked, “William, is Joseph coming back tomorrow?”

“Yes, around 2 pm.”

“I just called him but couldn’t get through. What happened? Is he okay now?”

“It’s no problem.”

William looked at his watch, “it’s early in the United States. Mr. Joseph may have switched his phone to the free mode.”

“Miss Isabella, do you have any urgent matter?” She asked with a smile.

“Oh, I forgot the time difference.”

Isabella patted her head and said sweetly, “it’s fine. I just want to give him a call. I won’t call him anymore and pick him up tomorrow.”

Finished speaking, Isabella excitedly went upstairs, she felt flying and like was wrapped in honey.

But she would never have thought about what kind of pain and confusion she would experience tomorrow...

The next day, it was 10 o’clock after Isabella finished her class. She could have had lunch before going to the airport, but her longing for Joseph was like a tide that surged out.

Three days of separation is better than a wedding.

Although she had only been away for a few dozen hours, Isabella admitted that she had been completely bewitched by Joseph.

She missed his face, his smell and his body, as well as his detailed gentleness, his sweetie bossiness.

“Isabella, do you have a needle in your butt? Why don’t you use your brain when talking to you?”

Jane roared at Isabella from the side.

“My dear is back today. I want to pick him up at the airport.”

“I know, I know, you said it a hundred times.”

Jane took out a card from her bag and gave it to Isabella. “Women in love are really scary. Isabella, your love is even more terrifying. Here, this is for you. I can only help you this much.”
