226 She Had to Fight

“I know!”

Angelina put her arm around Isabella’s shoulder. “You are so cute. How can you be so honest? Everyone has problems. If you don’t want to talk about them now, don’t talk about them until you feel the time is right. But I must warn you, those three girls are bad girls, and though they gave up today, they will certainly make trouble for you again.”

Isabella looked at Angelina, moved.

“Don’t worry. If they bother you again, tell me! I’m on your side!”

Angelina tapped Isabella’s lovingly. “However, in return, you have to keep a secret for me!”

Isabella immediately smiled and said, “You are not pregnant, are you?”

Angelina laughed loudly,

“You found it! But there is no other way. I want to go back to Peace City. This is the best way to trick Joseph. Anyway, he’s not omnipotent!”

Isabella smiled. “I will keep it a secret for you, but I think you won’t stay here for long?”

.....

“It’s very easy to stay here forever.” Angelina said without hesitation, “As long as I call my man back, we can have kids at any time!”

Isabella paused and her face turned red. “Okay...”

Angelina laughed again. “Look at your face!”

Angelina pinched Isabella’s face, “How about Joseph? Is he good? Tell me, I like gossips!”

Isabella instantly felt her head heat up. Just as she was at a loss on what to say, she suddenly heard Joseph’s voice, “Why don’t you point-blank ask me?”

His cold voice seemed to freeze the steaming food. The two raised their heads and saw Joseph’s handsome but unhappy face.

Isabella opened her mouth awkwardly. “Why are you here...”

Angelina immediately giggled. “Well, since I got Isabella together with me, it’s much easier to find you!”

As she spoke, she pointed to the seat opposite her. “Take a seat!”

Joseph looked around in disdain. “Why don’t you want a private room? It’s crowded here.”

“I like lively places!”

“Then go over there yourself.”

Joseph pulled Angelina up and sat beside Isabella.

Angelina smiled ambiguously. “You two are really close.”

Isabella scratched her knees and sneaked a glance at Joseph.

She had already had hope for Joseph. Yesterday, when she heard Angelina say that he had never had a true girlfriend, she instantly felt that his image in her mind had changed dramatically. When she looked at him, there was a hint of adoration...

Isabella didn’t expect that her glance with love was noticed by Joseph. He turned his head and asked, “What did you call me here for?”

Although his tone was as indifferent as usual, Isabella could feel a trace of concern.

However, she still asked doubtfully, “I didn’t call you...”

“Yes, you did it!” Angelina immediately said excitedly, “You got bullied in his territory and almost went to jail. Why don’t you find him and complain?”

Joseph frowned. “What’s wrong?”

Isabella did not want to bother Joseph with such a small matter. She shook her head. “It’s nothing, just a misunderstanding.”

As she spoke, she hurriedly picked up food for Joseph like a good wife. “You have work to do later. Help yourself.”

Joseph suddenly put down his chopsticks. Isabella realized that she had been distracted, and had actually done something very silly.

She forgot to use the public chopsticks. Instead, she used her chopsticks to pick up food for Joseph.

No wonder he put down his chopsticks. As a neat freak, he wouldn’t accept...

“I’m sorry, I’ll get you a new one...”

Before she finished, Joseph grabbed her wrist and said, “Isabella, can you be careful? Who bullied you? Don’t you have a brain in your head? How could you get bullied every day?”

Isabella felt the warmth of Joseph’s hand and blinked playfully. “Why don’t you eat those before I answer you?”

Joseph was speechless.

Although Joseph was called over by Angelina for lunch, he only stayed for 20 minutes because of work. Even so, he never complained about Angelina’s behavior.

After a sumptuous lunch, Isabella said goodbye to Angelina and returned to school alone.

However, her heart was always warm and filled with happiness.

Although she had yet to meet Joseph’s parents, for now, everyone in the Wilson family was very kind to her. Their strong personality had a great influence on her. She even dared to offend people she was usually reluctant to offend.

She simply felt that since Angelina was willing to give her such strong support, she had to fight.

For someone who grew up with domestic violence and was extremely insecure, having someone to back her up was a wonderful feeling...

Isabella couldn’t stop thinking if she could have Joseph’s love someday, marry him and live under his protection...

Isabella was so happy that she trembled. Then, she took the photo of Slike and kissed it again and again. “Dad! You must be praying for me up above, right? You’re teaching me to be optimistic, right? I’ll buy a photo frame for you today!”

Isabella was happy and went to school...

Not far away, a frustrated look peeped out of the half-open window of a white sedan.

In the afternoon class, Rosy called her.

Isabella frowned and guessed that it was one of the three girls told on her. She sighed helplessly and then sent a message back to Rosy to tell her that she was in class.

Undoubtedly Rosy immediately told her to call her back after the class.

After class, Isabella stood at the door and thought it over. Then she called Rosy.

“Isabella, who are you with this morning?”

She asked with an arrogant voice as usual.

Isabella scratched her head and made up her answer. “I don’t her name. I only know that she is rich.”

“A rich woman! How did you know her?”

“She had a stomachache, no one was around, so I helped her to the hospital. Then she was very grateful, invited me to dinner, and bought me something.” Isabella was full of lies.

Rosy could do nothing about a stranger’s help, so she said angrily, “You better not lie, otherwise I will tell father that you are with hooligans!”

Isabella pretended to be speechless and said, “You can ask Dorothy and the others. That woman is much richer than them. If I never did her a favor, how could she do me one?”
