Chapter 58 Mr. Valdemar Had a Toy Boy?
"It was truly shocking. You never know the full story until the end. They said Douglas was fearless, not even afraid of death, except for his sister. I thought it was just a rumor, but it turned out to be true! I really wish I could have been Douglas's sister."
"I don't want to be a big sister, I want to be his girlfriend instead, haha."
"Don't joke around. We never had a chance. Douglas is the second young master of the Teronica family, with such status and position. We shouldn't even dare to dream about it."
A puzzled woman asked, "Why do you refer to him as the second young master of Teronica? Are there any other young masters?"
"Young master is Frederick Valdemar, who is a prominent figure in our Teronica. I heard that Mr. Valdemar is even more handsome than Douglas; Douglas is delicate, while Mr. Valdemar is handsome."
Upon hearing the name Frederick, Isabella's heart raced.
She was about to leave the restroom, but couldn't resist, so she stood to the side pretending to wash her hands, wanting to hear more.
Another woman said, "It's a shame they are all males. Just imagine, if one of them were female, they could have a child together. It would be so beautiful."
"Oh, what are you thinking? If Douglas were really a woman, Mr. Valdemar might not be interested in him anymore. I heard that even though Mr. Valdemar is very handsome, he is not interested in women."
"Is that so? Is that really true?"
"I really don't know if it's true or not. Haven't you checked online? This news is circulating all over the internet."
"In the past, Alison always relied on the fame of Mr. Valdemar to blur the lines of their relationship. At that time, some people said that Mr. Valdemar's silence was definitely a strategic move to use her to quell the rumors."
"Later, Mr. Valdemar personally clarified his relationship with Alison. Some people said it was because there was a fire in Mr. Valdemar's backyard."
"His backyard caught fire?"
The woman lowered her voice and said, "I heard that Mr. Valdemar was keeping a toy boy, and people didn't like the rumors about Alison and Mr. Valdemar, so they forced him to clarify."
"What?! Xiaobai Lian? Is he a man?"
"Yes!"
Another woman said, "I've heard about it too, even paparazzi have revealed that Mr. Valdemar and Douglas, two men who treat women completely differently, actually get along so well because they had a secret relationship behind the scenes."
Isabella was very shocked.
What was she hearing?
Was this something she could listen to without spending money?
Regarding Frederick's liking for men, she had also seen it online before.
When she had just married Frederick, she didn't take online news seriously at all.
She was certain that it was a rumor.
But now, she had a different idea.
There was evidence to suggest that Frederick liked men. He had always refused to divorce her, perhaps to use her to quell rumors.
If his liking for men were to be publicly discussed in the future, he could use his married status to silence everyone.
Isabella couldn't help but purse her lips.
What era was this? Why be afraid of others knowing? It was not illegal to like men.
Frederick and Douglas...
Someone and Douglas...
Oh, she seemed to have made a new discovery!
Someone and Frederick actually had mutual friends!
That was not the point. The point was, if Frederick really had an affair with Douglas, then she could use Douglas to persuade Frederick to divorce her quickly, right?
She didn't have the chance to meet Frederick, but she could meet Douglas.
After all, Douglas was Albert's uncle!
Isabella seemed to have found a way out for herself, and her mood instantly improved.
She glanced at herself in the mirror, encouraging herself in her heart.
"First conquer Douglas, then use Douglas to defeat Frederick. It was a perfect plan!"
Isabella seemed to have found a way out for herself, her entire mental state changed, and her mood instantly became cheerful.
As soon as she returned to Freya's side, Freya curiously asked, "Did something good happen?"
Isabella simply said, "I heard a joke in the bathroom just now, and I found it funny."
"What joke was so funny? Share it with us so we can also have a good laugh and cheer up."
Hugo, Justin, and Paul also looked at her curiously.
In front of the children, Isabella didn't want to talk about Frederick and Douglas, so she casually made up a joke to change the subject.
After playing all day, at five in the afternoon, Hugo, Justin, and Paul were so tired that they could hardly keep their eyes open.
They have not fully made up for the sleep they missed last night.
Hugo, Justin, and Paul yawned. Isabella suggested that Freya take them back to rest first, while she went to the hospital to check on Albert.
"If you have other things to do, you can leave them at the residence and go directly, they won't run around," Isabella said.
Freya immediately said, "Today is Sunday, I don't have to work, and I don't have a boyfriend to keep me company. What else is there for me to do? I'll take care of them at home, you go do your thing.
"The Perry family members were all very honest and had a good reputation. If you establish a good relationship with them, it might come in handy in the future if you encounter scumbags bullying you."
Isabella didn't argue, she just smiled slightly and said, "Okay."
In the past, she purely out of goodwill helped Albert recover from his illness.
This time was different. There were indeed some selfish considerations, after all, she wanted to take advantage of his uncle.
Although she hadn't figured out exactly how to use it yet, she was definitely going to make use of it.
At the hospital entrance, Isabella said a few words before parting ways with Freya, Hugo, Justin, and Paul.
Isabella walked into the hospital and saw a familiar figure in the distance. She paused for a moment, unable to resist taking another glance.
Daniel also quickly noticed her, and he was surprised too.
Then he said something to the girl next to him and walked over to greet Isabella.
"Isabella, why are you in the hospital? Are you feeling unwell?" Daniel asked.
"No, I came to visit a friend."
During their conversation, Isabella couldn't help but glance at the young girl not far away.
The girl had long hair, an oval face, olive skin, and was very beautiful, just like a college student.
However, she looked at Isabella with an unfriendly gaze.
Isabella furrowed her brows slightly.
Daniel also noticed the change in Isabella's expression. He turned his head to look at the girl, and she quickly averted her face, avoiding eye contact with Isabella.
She didn't come over. Instead, she just found an empty seat and sat down quietly, waiting for Daniel.
Daniel turned around and, with a look of helplessness on his face, explained to Isabella, "That's my cousin. She was originally in college, but got pregnant unexpectedly. She applied for a leave of absence without telling my aunt. Recently, she had a fight with her boyfriend.
"But there are some issues with the baby, so she has to get an abortion. But she's too scared to tell her mom, so she came to me instead.
"When I was young, my family was very poor. My aunt always took care of me, and she even covered my high school expenses for several years. So my relationship with my aunt's family is very good. Even though she is my cousin, to me, she is like a sister. She didn't want to tell her mom, and she wasn't familiar with Teronica, so I was the only one who could take care of her."
Isabella glanced at the girl again. "Such a significant matter, are you really not planning to tell her mother?" she asked.
"I want to tell my aunt, but what's the point? Besides making her sad, what else can she do? The incident has already occurred, and even if she gets angry, there's nothing she can do. My aunt is not in good health, and if she found out about this, it would definitely make her sick."
"Indeed, what has happened cannot be changed. If her mother found out, she would only be angry and upset," Isabella commented. "Her belly looks quite big already, she should be over five months pregnant. How is the baby doing?"
