Chapter 21: Do you think I will fall in love with Isabella
So many love marks... Sebastian wants everyone to know what she went through last night!
It is early summer now, how is she going to hide these marks?
He clearly did it on purpose, making her look foolish, just like yesterday at the Lawrence family, when he left a faint mark at the corner of her lips!
Isabella spent a long time choosing her clothes in the dressing room before finally finding a high-collar dress that could barely cover the purple marks on her neck.
"Madam," the butler respectfully asked as they descended the stairs, "what would you like for breakfast?"
"Anything will do."
"Mr. Lawrence instructed before leaving that you should rest at home today as you are not feeling well," the butler said. "Madam, would you like me to call the family doctor?"
Isabella quickly declined, "No need, I'm fine...". Isabella closed her eyes, surrendering herself completely, giving in.
Since she has already given herself to him, why bother trying to escape. Just enjoy it. If Isabella can fully immerse herself in the role of "Mrs. Lawrence," she would actually have a very good life.
Although Sebastian has a bad temper, a bad attitude, and is as cold as an iceberg, he actually understands very well what a woman needs and when to give it.
But she became greedy, she wanted more...
Sebastian can give her a lot of money, but he won't give her a lot of love. Thinking of the previous night…
The lights were turned off and the master bedroom was pitch black. However, the heavy breathing of the man made one's imagination run wild.
"Sebastian..."
"Mm? I'm here."
Who made Sebastian interfere? Everything uncomfortable was because of him... He lasts too long, making it unbearable for her!
He even said that he was sparing her this time, but what about the next time? Will she even be able to get out of bed?
The butler hesitated, "But Mr. Lawrence..." this brought her back from her thoughts.
"After I finish breakfast, I will go to the hospital to visit my grandmother, and then I will go to the Wallace family," Isabella said. "Please prepare the car for me."
"Yes, madam."
The butler agreed and left the dining room to call Sebastian for instructions.
Sebastian paused for a moment and said, "Send two bodyguards to secretly protect her."
"Understood, Mr. Lawrence."
Sebastian hung up the phone and glanced at the employees in the conference room, raising his eyebrow. "Continue."
Joshua deliberately coughed twice, "Mr. Lawrence, during work hours... it's better not to take personal calls, it's not a good influence. You are the boss, set a good example."
He was the only one in the entire company who dares to speak to Sebastian like this.
"I'll keep that in mind for next time," Sebastian replied calmly, "but it concerns...
"My wife, she is the priority."
The rest of the people in the conference room looked at each other, their hearts filled with excitement, but they dared not show it on their faces.
Mr. Lawrence got married!!!
"By the way," Sebastian tapped his finger on the table, "Kaine, after the meeting, have the PR department come to my office."
"Yes, Mr. Lawrence."
Joshua sat in the first seat to Sebastian's right, leaning over and lowering his voice, "I can tell that you're in a good mood today...radiant."
"Can't stand seeing me happy?"
"I'm afraid Isabella suffers, being drained by you..."
Sebastian kicked him under the table, but a smile tugged at the corner of his lips.
The crudeness of his words wasn't off the mark, after devouring Isabella, he was indeed refreshed and satisfied.
"A married man is different." Joshua said, "CEO Bao, you must exercise restraint!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he received another kick.
Isabella went to the hospital, and a nurse was sitting by the bed. When she saw Isabella, she hesitated for a moment, "Who are you..."
"I've come to see my grandmother."
"You must be Mrs. Lawrence." The caregiver stood up immediately. "I apologize for not having met you yet since I started taking care of the old lady."
"It's alright." Isabella walked to the bedside. "Is my grandmother still asleep?"
"She woke up for a while when the doctor made rounds this morning. She had some water and a few spoons of congee before falling back asleep."
Isabella carefully observed her grandmother. Although she was sleeping, her complexion had clearly improved compared to before.
After giving some instructions to the caregiver, Isabella went to the attending physician's office.
"…Your husband sent a medical team over, and we have discussed a completely new treatment plan. The old lady's condition has noticeably improved, Miss Wallace. You don't have to worry too much."
"I understand, thank you."
"However, it would be appropriate for the family to accompany her. Although the medical expenses have been settled, and a top medical team has come, nobody from your family has visited during this time."
Isabella lowered her eyes. "I will try my best to make time and spend more time with my grandmother."
It wasn't surprising that Judy and her daughter didn't come as she had expected, but why hadn't her father come to accompany her grandmother?
She had to go to the Wallace family.
Leaving the doctor's office, Isabella was walking towards the elevator when a strange feminine voice came from beside her. "Isn't this Mrs. Lawrence? What a coincidence to meet you here…"
She followed the voice and smiled. "Yes, what a coincidence, Grace. It's a small world."
Grace looked at her with eyes filled with hatred that couldn't be concealed. "The glamorous Mrs. Lawrence, why are you alone in the hospital? Is there some infertility disease that you are ashamed of showing to others?"
Isabella calmly replied, "When I become pregnant with Sebastian's child, I'll invite you to the ceremony."
"Isabella, you're stepping over the line again! You humiliated me so much last time, causing me embarrassment. I will remember it forever!"
"Since you've suffered last time, why haven't you learned your lesson today and still come to provoke me, Miss Turner?"
Grace said, "Enjoy it while it lasts, you're just a puppet in the hands of others! Without Sebastian, who do you think you are? You're a bankrupt heiress whom no one in New York would dare to lend money to!"
"But fortunately, my luck was good, and I met Sebastian." Isabella smiled. "Do you have a problem with that? Even if you do, keep it to yourself. You know how much he protects and loves me."
Grace was furious, but she didn't dare to do anything to Isabella. If she confronted Isabella head-on, she would be the one who ended up at a disadvantage.
"Oh… by the way," Isabella remembered something. "How could you leave home? If I remember correctly, the Ye family seems to…"
After scolding her, Grace's expression changed. “I... What does it have to do with you?” she stuttered.
”It has nothing to do with me, but I will ask Sebastian about it later,” replied Isabella.
“Isabella” Grace clenched her teeth. 'Don't bully people too much.'
‘'If people don't provoke me, I won't provoke them,'’ Isabella raised her shoulders. “You should put yourself in place first, clean up your mouth, and talk to me.”
With that, Isabella turned and walked away. She didn't have time to argue with Grace and waste her energy.
