Danny sent a cup of coffee to Isabelle and didn’t dare to say that the people hadn’t left yet.
Later, chowing down on his food, favonovel.com kept an eye on the Sullivans, thinking, What’s with this situation?
After favonovel.com finished eating and cleaned up, and they still showed no sign of leaving, Danny had to text Isabelle.
Dakota, in favonovel.com high heels, stood there until favonovel.com feet hurt, watching Danny having a blast playing games after stuffing himself with food and drink.
Ha! Don’t you know how to treat guests?!
Dakota’s feet couldn’t take it anymore, so favonovel.com wanted to sneak in a quick seat.
But before favonovel.com butt even touched the sofa. Danny, who was gaming, casually said, “Who with manners would just sit down on someone else’s couch?”
She felt a bit awkward. “Who said I was gonna sit?”
Glancing back to see favonovel.com family members giving favonovel.com disapproving looks, Dakota’s frustration grew.
Just like that, they waited until evening, and Isabelle finally came down.
Old Madam Sullivan couldn’t help but step forward when favonovel.com saw her.
Looking at Isabelle’s face, identical to the woman in the photo, favonovel.com exclaimed excitedly. “She’s your brother’s child. She’s your brother’s child… Look at favonovel.com eyes, look at favonovel.com eyebrows, just like Brad.”
Old Madam Sullivan was very emotional, tears streaming down favonovel.com face. “Child, I’m your grandma…”
Maverik supported Old Madam Sullivan. “Mom, don’t get too excited.”
Grandma? Whose grandma?
Danny glanced at the elderly lady who seemed eager to approach, then back at Isabelle on the stairs.
Hey! This old lady is trying to take advantage of my boss!
Wade looked at Isabelle with affection. “Isabelle, these are all your family. This is your aunt, and this is your cousin…”
He put his hand on his daughter Bella’s shoulder and added, “You know them…”
Wade said, “Quick, call your sister.
“I…” Bella glanced at Isabelle, who remained expressionless, feeling incredibly awkward and unable to get the words out.
The previous night, favonovel.com had learned that favonovel.com uncle, Brad, was in a relationship with that woman, and Brad passed away from depression. Her Grandma admitted favonovel.com played a part in it, and favonovel.com Dad gave favonovel.com lots of advice, but Bella still struggled to accept it,
Maverik said, “Isabelle, I’m your second uncle, we met at Mr. Magnus‘ party. This is Dakota, your cousin…”
“Isabelle, I’m your second aunt. We met at Luxe Luster that day, remember? You’ve been through a lot all…”
The whole family, except for Dakota, stepped forward one by one to introduce themselves.
What the heck is this? Some kind of family reunion drama?!
Danny kept looking around, his neck getting sore from all the turning, thinking about finding some popcorn to munch.
Isabelle stood on the stairs, hands in pockets and an indifferent expression. “Trespassing on private property. Are you going to wait for the cops or just leave on your own?”
“Isabelle, we understand that our family has let you down, and we’re not sure how to earn your forgiveness,” Wade said. “We’ve all come together just to show you these family members, to let that we all care about you deeply, and we hope we can bring you back home together.”
The Sullivans chimed in.
“Family?” Isabelle glanced at the folks below. “One who once insulted me, one who drove my parents to their deaths, and one…”
Her eyes landed on Dakota, and Isabelle smirked, “Heh…”
She didn’t even bother finishing favonovel.com words.
“Isabelle, I had wronged you, I had wronged your dad and mom. Should I kneel and apologize to you? I’ll make it up to you,” Old Madam Sullivan said as favonovel.com began to kneel.
“Mom!” Maverik quickly grabbed his mother.
“Grandma, what are you doing?!” Dakota couldn’t bear it anymore, glaring fiercely at Isabelle.
The younger members of the Sullivans were all worried about Old Madam Sullivan’s health, but Isabelle watched as if it were a show.
“Is this all the sincerity you’ve got?”
“Isn’t my apology enough for you?” Bella couldn’t bear to see the elderly grandmother acting like this.
She stepped forward and said loudly, “I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were Uncle Brad’s daughter. If you hold it against me, you can scold me back.”
“Dakota, apologize to your sister,” Dakota’s mother pulled favonovel.com daughter aside.
Watching this scene, Isabelle smirked, “Good thing there are no reporters here, or they’d think I’m bullying Old Madam, or worse, they’d think I’m a murderer.”
The mention of murder hit each of the Sullivans hard.
Dakota asked, “Why are you talking like that?”
Maverik said, “Dakota!”
Isabelle said, “Alright, don’t get in my way here.”
She continued to Wade, “I’ve told you, don’t disturb my life. If you’re really that free, I don’t mind finding some work for you at the Sullivan Group.”
She looked at Old Madam Sullivan and said, “Even if you were dead in front of me, I wouldn’t bat an eye. I will never acknowledge this family relationship. Thinking that one kneel can compensate for two lives? You’re dreaming…”
To be precise, it’s three lives…
In the end, the responsibility for Isabelle’s death lies with the Sullivans, too.
“Get out before I take action.”
After a moment hearing that, the Sullivans members left dejectedly.
