Chapter 1341 I Will Be Your Eyes
"It's not just me overthinking. Even the house staff treat me like an outsider, not a member of the Howard family. They've never really seen me as part of the family."
Donte had just wanted to comfort Andrea. She had suddenly started crying in the coffee shop, and anyone watching might have thought he had upset her.
But when he heard the last part of Andrea's words, his shoulders tensed up.
They've never really seen me as part of the family.
Yeah, they never saw him as part of the family either.
Just fake polite smiles.
To Donte, those smiles were too phony.
He often saw those polite and courteous smiles when negotiating deals outside.
Donte had grown used to it.
Listening to Andrea's complaints, he suddenly felt a bit moved.
Andrea wiped her tears with a tissue.
Donte said, "Since they don't treat us like family, we gotta work even harder ourselves."
He understood that Andrea wanted to draw him closer.
He was indeed moved by Andrea's words because both of them were not valued by the Howard family.
Emberfall City.
The afternoon sun was just right.
Rachel walked into the yard. The villa's courtyard was open and faced the sea, built on a high point, offering a clear view of the rolling waves outside.
Rachel had been here for four days and was slowly getting used to the atmosphere of this place.
Apart from not being able to leave, Isaac would agree to any other request she had.
She wanted to go out and see the surroundings, and after a moment of hesitation, Isaac agreed.
After all, on this island, all the boats were under his control. Without his approval, no one could take Rachel away.
"Elmer, why don't you go out with Eve? You haven't been out in a while. Get some fresh air and take a walk with Eve."
Elmer rarely stepped outside. He didn't like the daytime world; the bright sunlight would impair his vision. But seeing Rachel's happy smile, he hesitated slightly, "I..."
Rachel wanted to go out, so she immediately grabbed Elmer's arm and pulled him along, "Come on, come on, I'll go with you. You can't see, so I'll be your eyes."
She was going stir-crazy staying inside.
Pulling Elmer outside, Isaac watched their backs and smiled. A nearby servant remarked, "Mr. Elmer seems to be slowly accepting Ms. Eve. It's the first time I've seen Mr. Elmer so flustered yet not rejecting Ms. Eve."
Isaac said, "I asked Elmer to accompany me outside, and he refused. But this young girl who's only been here a few days, he agreed to. Eve is indeed very pretty, with a great personality, much brighter than the girls on the island. No wonder Elmer is moved. He'll slowly accept her."
"So, are you really planning to have Mr. Elmer marry Ms. Eve? Ms. Eve doesn't have any documents here."
"If she doesn't, we'll arrange it. Here, my word still counts." More than that, on this island, Isaac's word was absolute.
Once outside, Rachel realized how vast the place was.
Redwood Isle was divided into four areas.
Rachel was currently in the southern area of Redwood Isle, and Isaac was the ruler of the southern area.
