Chapter 45 Are You an Idiot?
Isabelle nodded, "Generally speaking, timid people are usually selfish. Your brother, although he doesn't cause trouble, seems to be an extremely selfish person.
I used to think that your sister-in-law was the same kind of person. But hearing what you just said today has changed my opinion of her.
Six hundred thousand is not a small amount. In that situation, if she could clearly realize that life is more precious than money, it is truly commendable."
Henry then turned to ask, "Tell me about yourself. How come you're living alone in my brother's upstairs? If Sean isn't your boyfriend, then who is? You and Sean are so close, doesn't he mind?"
Isabelle gave Henry a look, "Are you here to check my household registration or for a blind date? Such a strong curiosity, huh?"
Despite her words, she still told Henry the story of her and Bryan. When she mentioned being hit by Victoria and Bryan planning to marry Victoria six months later, Isabelle couldn't help but cry.
Henry asked, "I've heard that nowadays, college students are very open-minded. They can lose their most precious thing over a hamburger. You've been together for a few years, and yet you're still virgins. How did you manage that?"
Isabelle wiped away her tears and pinched Henry's arm hard. It hurt, but Henry endured it. Isabelle scolded, "So you were thinking that you could have me with just a hamburger, that's why you dared to touch me all over?"
After saying that, Isabelle paused. Because in her impulsive moment earlier, if she had run into Henry downstairs, she would have actually dragged him upstairs without needing a hamburger, and would have given him her most precious thing.
Thinking about this, her expression softened, and she sighed, "It's all just nonsense from boring people. Men and women are together for love, right? If the love is there, a woman would be willing even if it means giving money, let alone just a hamburger!
The people who say such things, I don't know if their brains are filled with water or something else. Which female college student is so desperate for a hamburger?"
Henry asked, "You've been with Bryan for years, so it shouldn't be just about love, right? Then how did you manage to..."
Isabelle interrupted, "Are you implying that you wish I were a promiscuous woman?!" She was about to pinch him again but then held back, sighing, "His family is wealthy, and he was chased by many girls in school. After entering society, he indulged in a life of debauchery.
I was afraid that he would be unfaithful, so I made a deal with him. He wouldn't get anything from me until our wedding night, or at least after we got engaged."
Henry asked again, "So, he hasn't become a scumbag yet, at least he kept his promise to you. But why did he suddenly..."
Isabelle's pain was triggered, and she started crying again, "That's exactly why I can't understand. Sob..."
"Don't cry," Henry asked, "What does this Victoria do?"
"What does she do? She's just a prostitute from a bar, a trashy woman, that's why I feel wronged. Sob... Oh, by the way, she used to be a prostitute at the Violet Club, but later became the manager. After getting together with Bryan, she quit her job.
But Sean mentioned that she's just a slut who has been with the boss, Charles, and even Henry. I suspect she's been with Sean too, but he doesn't dare say it in front of me."
Henry, puzzled, asked, "If that's the case, why don't you let Sean deal with her?"
Isabelle explained, "Sean has been pursuing me all along, and he would be happy if Bryan married that slut. Besides, she's a regular in bed with Charles, Henry, and the boss, so Sean wouldn't dare do anything to her!"
Henry remembered the woman who kicked Emily to the ground in the bar. She looked seductive, but also had a certain demeanor, much like a manager.
"Do you have a photo of her?"
"Who?"
"Victoria."
"Yes."
Isabelle opened her phone, not only showing Victoria's photo but also a video of Victoria with Bryan.
Needless to say, this must be the evidence Isabelle collected.
At first glance, Henry recognized Victoria as the woman who knocked Emily down.
Henry said expressionlessly, "Don't worry, the first thing I'll do after I'm discharged from the hospital is to separate them!"
Isabelle looked Henry up and down, not saying anything, but in her heart, she thought, "You've already been beaten up by Charles and Henry, and yet you dare to go after their woman in bed?"
Henry noticed Isabelle's suspicion and said, "Don't worry, I won't say I can do something if I can't, but if I say it, I will definitely do it!"
This wasn't the first time Isabelle had heard this statement.
At this moment, she saw the same determination in Henry's eyes as she did during the day: stern, indifferent, and chilling!
Isabelle's mood suddenly became complicated.
Doesn't he want to pursue me?
Does he think he has a chance after Bryan marries Victoria, not understanding this simple truth?
"Kid," Isabelle suddenly asked, "Tell me the truth, do you like me?"
Henry immediately softened his gaze and became affectionate, "I do!"
"Do you want to pursue me?"
"I do!"
"You damn liar!" Isabelle stared at Henry and asked, "Are you absolutely sure? Not to mention whether you have the ability to separate them, even if you do, will you still have a chance to pursue me after they break up?"
