Chapter 175
“I’m sorry, Isabella...”
Lukas wrapped his arms around Isabella’s waist and buried his face in her neck.
Isabella flung Lukas away. “Lukas, please behave yourself!”
Lukas looked at Isabella with reddened eyes. “Isabella, I have no choice. I love you, but I can’t... Don’t be sad for me, don’t cry for me... I don’t want to see you cry...”
“There’s no need to explain anything. It was destined that we missed each other!”
Isabella turned around. Lukas grabbed her and pulled her into his arms. “Isabella...”
“Lukas, we missed each other! We will never go back!” Isabella broke down, tears streaming down her face in despair, “Don’t bother me anymore!”
The applause came from the door.
.....
“What a good show. The fiancé who just proposed to me hugged my sister in a trice. Don’t you take me too far?” Rosy sneered as she stood at the door with her gown.
Isabella knew well that Rosy was bloody-minded and difficult. She pushed Lukas away, wiped her tears, and turned to leave.
“Isabella, you don’t even have an explanation for me?”
“You even seduce my fiancé at my wedding! Isabella! I must fight you today!” Rosy rushed up and grabbed Isabella’s long hair. She stretched out her hand and slapped Isabella.
“Rosy!” It’s not what you think! Let Isabella go!” Lukas hurriedly grabbed Rosy.
“I won’t let her go!”
“Lukas, I have done so much for you. How did you promise me? You are regretting it now?” Rosy said angrily.
“Rosy, it’s not what you think...”
“Go away! I will perish in the common ruin with her today!” Rosy pushed Lukas away and pulled Isabella to fight her again!
Meanwhile, it was in the pavilion in the backyard.
Joseph sat in front of the round stone table, elegantly tasting the coffee.
Gerry hurried over. “Mr. Joseph, Miss Isabella was hit.”
Joseph’s hand paused, but he did not seem surprised. “Was she hit by Rosy?”
“Yes, because I saw her...”
“You saw that she was sad for Lukas and saw that she was still entangled...”
Joseph poured himself a cup of coffee and said quietly, “I know, because it was I who sent the secret to Rosy.”
Gerry was stunned. “Then should we...”
“No.” Joseph put down the cup, with his expression darkened, “I won’t do anything.”
“But...”
“Isabella has a deep affection for Lukas. When she was asleep, she was calling him...”
“They have been together for more than ten years, so it always hurts her if she abandons him, right?” Joseph looked at the white jade transparent cup in his hand. He smiled playfully, but his eyes were cold and cruel.
Gerry lowered his head and hesitated, “But Miss Isabella is now being hit unilaterally and does not fight back. No one is protecting her...”
“That’s not bad. Lukas and Rosy are more powerful than I thought...”
Joseph narrowed his eyes. His face suddenly turned grim, “I just want to make her despair! Let her be in pain! Only then can she abandon Lucas willingly! Only if she gives him up will she completely end her relationship with Lucas! She has been fettered by these unworthy people for too long!”
Gerry stared blankly at Joseph, who suddenly lost control of his emotions.
“Gerry! Carry out the original plan! Prepare our gift for them!”
“I never do business that I don’t have confidence in! Since Isabella belongs to me now, she must completely be together with me willingly, no matter what methods I use!” Joseph forcefully squeezed out a crack on the cup. The boiling hot coffee flowed down his hand.
The corridor was in a mess when Jane was the first to rush over.
At first glance, she saw that Isabella was actually hit by Rosy. Lukas only isolated them at the side and tried to block the attack for Isabella. However, the more he blocked, the angrier Rosy became.
“Lukas, are you a real man? Why are you just shouting but not stopping Rosy?”
Jane was instantly enraged. She immediately went forward and knocked Lukas back. “Isabella has concerns and can’t fight back. Why don’t you fight back? You just watch Rosy, this lunatic, hit Isabella? She’s your wife and you can’t bear to stop her? If it weren’t for Isabella looking for you for half a year, not to mention marrying Rosy, you would still be in the hospital now!”
Jane’s sudden interruption caused the scene to instantly become silent.
“Jane! You dead girl! We don’t need you to care about our family!” Rosy was shocked and went up to pull Jane, “You dare to hit my husband? I’m going to fight you today!”
“Wait!”
“What did you just say? Jane, say it again.” Lukas finally pulled Rosy and pushed her against the wall. Then he walked past her and went straight to Jane.
“I said...”
“Jane! You damned girl!” Rosy roared and came over to pull Jane, “If you dare to make mischief, I will fight you!”
“Don’t hit Jane!”
Isabella could stand by and not fight back, but when she saw Jane being threatened, she could not stand by. Just as she was about to reach out to grab Rosy, she was stopped by Lukas. He said emotionally, “Isabella! Tell me, was it you who took care of me during the six months I was in the hospital?”
Isabella said fiercely, “Don’t ask any more meaningless questions!”
“How can it be meaningless?”
Lukas said with a trembling voice, “I swore that I would marry the person who took care of me. But why was it that the first person I saw when I woke up was not you?”
“So love is just a repayment to you, right?”
Isabella saw more and more guests rushing into the corridor. Someone was stopping Rosy and Jane, so she pushed Lukas directly onto Rosy, causing Rosy to stagger. She said, “We are destined to miss each other! Don’t bother me anymore!”
Then she turned around and fled into the backyard.
“Isabella!”
“Lukas! Listen to me! I admit that she took care of you, but I did too!”
When Rosy saw that something was wrong, she hurriedly hugged Lukas’s waist and begged him. But she did not expect Lukas to directly break her off. He reprimanded fiercely, “Have you had enough?”
He pushed her away and ran to the backyard.
The corridor was in a mess.
Lukas entered the backyard and saw Isabella disappear in the distance. He hurriedly chased after her when an expressionless young man suddenly came out from behind a tree and blocked his way. “Mr. Lukas, you came just in time. Regarding the investment of your company, Mr. Joseph has already made a decision. Please come with me.”
