Chapter 321 Mr. Lawrence Said, "If You Want to Jump, Then Do it.
Because of his belated realization, there was a hint of pain in his palm.
Sebastian reached out his hand, his attention focused on the lighter in his palm.
Even this lighter was a gift from Isabella on his birthday.
He ruined the entire birthday scene, but he kept this gift.
Now, seeing this gift again, Sebastian's face was full of irony.
Marcus was Isabella's first love, not him. At that time, he was truly out of his mind to believe Isabella's nonsense.
Sebastian's heart was filled with bitterness. He had to admit that in just a few months, Isabella had infiltrated every aspect of his life.
He didn't know when he had fallen in love with her, but one thing was certain that this love had lasted until today.
She was just a woman, not a necessity in his life. He kept her around for one purpose only, which was to torment her.
His authority was not something she could challenge.
With a loud bang, Sebastian mercilessly threw the lighter into the trash can. The metal casing of the lighter collided with the ground, producing a crisp sound.
Willowbrook Estate.
Isabella had been waiting for Sebastian to come back. It was already midnight, but there was still no sign of him, and the villa remained eerily quiet. Sebastian still hadn't returned.
Isabella had waited almost the entire night, unable to sleep well, and she still hadn't seen him.
The questions filled her mind.
In the morning, after Isabella woke up, she sat on the bed, her eyes filled with an unmistakable sense of distraction.
She tried to call Sebastian again, but to her surprise, her phone had no signal. Isabella repeatedly checked the signal bar on her phone, and it was indeed without a signal.
Did Sebastian block the signal at Willowbrook Estate?
Isabella quickly left the bedroom and tried in the hallway, but it was the same situation.
Was Sebastian planning to cut off all her contact with the outside world? If he wanted to punish her, he should at least make it clear to her what she had done wrong.
But he just left without taking any responsibility, and he was too arbitrary!
Isabella kicked the wall in frustration, but instead of relieving her anger, the force of the kick hurt her toe.
Hopping back to the bedroom, Isabella applied some medicine and gently massaged her sore toe. Her movements were mechanical, but her mind was racing.
No, she couldn't just sit and wait. If there was something wrong, they should talk about it. She admitted that it was her fault, but Sebastian was also at fault. Since they both made mistakes, they should settle it together and have a proper conversation.
Who was at fault didn't matter as long as they didn't let Sebastian keep her locked up.
Keeping her locked up like this was unacceptable. Isabella's eyes sparkled with determination, replacing the previous confusion.
But how could she leave Willowbrook Estate without harming the baby?
Isabella gently caressed her slightly protruding belly and whispered, "Do you two have any ideas for Mommy?"
The room was quiet, and there was naturally no one to answer her. Isabella could only ponder on her own.
She opened the door to the balcony and stood there, leaning on the railing, gazing down.
From this angle, she could still vaguely see the figures of the two bodyguards downstairs, standing upright. They were serious, looking straight ahead like a pair of robots, making it difficult to communicate with them.
Moreover, in such a large villa, could there be only two bodyguards? Who knew how many pairs of eyes were watching her every move?
Isabella felt a headache coming on. The balcony railing was wide and sturdy. Isabella lifted her leg and climbed up, sitting on top of it.
She placed her hands on the railing, letting her legs dangle naturally. Her body slightly leaned back, her head tilted upwards, and she gazed at the sky. Her long hair cascaded behind her like a waterfall, creating a messy yet beautiful look when the wind blew.
Under the blue sky and white clouds, Isabella sat on the railing of the red-brick and green-tiled balcony, resembling a beautiful elf.
Sebastian's car was parked on the street opposite Willowbrook Estate. He squinted his eyes, his intense gaze fixed on Isabella.
He furrowed his brows, concealing the hint of amazement in his eyes, and smirked sarcastically. Indeed, she was free of all concerns, carrying a heart unburdened. Even when he locked her up, she could still entertain herself.
Isabella hadn't noticed Sebastian at all. Lost in her thoughts, a sudden idea flashed through her mind.
The study was right below the balcony, and the garage was below that. If she tied a rope and climbed down from the balcony, could she escape?
Isabella straightened her body and leaned down to take a look, mentally estimating the height of the second floor.
Oh my... Isabella gasped. It was quite high.
"Mr. Lawrence, should I drive in?" Inside the car, Kaine saw the scene and quickly turned to ask Sebastian, sounding uneasy. "Is the madam planning to do something foolish?"
Sebastian had naturally seen Isabella's actions, so he knew she wouldn't do anything foolish. She simply wanted to run away.
A hint of sarcasm appeared in his black eyes. He didn't reply but picked up his phone and called the butler. The signal jammer only affected the signal inside the villa, not outside.
The butler, who was conducting a security check outside the villa, answered the call promptly. "Mr. Lawrence."
"There are two things I need you to do..."
Isabella was still surveying the height of the building, repeatedly considering the feasibility of her plan, when suddenly, she saw several heads in her field of vision.
She was taken aback.
Then she saw the butler leading a group of people towards her. They were carrying several large mattresses, which they stacked one by one below her.
After that, they placed an air cushion on top of the mattresses, and someone was in charge of inflating it. Soon, the air cushion was fully inflated.
Then the butler looked up with a smile. "Madam, Mr. Lawrence said you can jump as you want. It's safe."
Isabella's face instantly paled, utterly baffled.
What was this?
"Madam, Mr. Lawrence also said that you can jump from anywhere in the entire Willowbrook Estate."
"Mr. Lawrence also said that as your husband, he should fulfill this little pleasure for you."
Isabella stared at the butler's face, her mouth twitching uncontrollably. Sebastian was really good at mocking people.
But how did Sebastian know what she was up to? Were there surveillance cameras around?
Even if there were, she clearly hadn't done anything yet. She was just surveying the terrain.
"Psycho."
The stark difference in their abilities made Isabella blush, feeling extremely embarrassed.
Sebastian's eyes seemed to be able to see right through her heart.
To avoid being exposed, Isabella muttered, "I wasn't trying to escape. I just wanted to enjoy the sun."
