habella shouted and morked her. “What does it have to do with me if thedion is happy!”
Her voice wasn’t quiet, and the people near the ear heard every ord
Immediately. Ivana’s expression changed. She thought. Bitch
Her eyes filled with tears as she cried, Bells, how can you say something like that? Im your sister!”
Isabella fel so disgusted she was about to throw up. She though It’s amazing how Ivana’s skin could be so thick
Samuel put down the flowers and looked at Isabella with some disapproval, “She’s not even a person. Why waste your time
on her?”
Samuel remembered everything that was done to Isabella by those in the Stout family.
He couldn’t possibly have anything nice to say. If it weren’t for labella, his words would have been harsher
Ivana was left speechless. Her face turned pale immediately, and she squeezed her bag tightly.
She thought, “How can this man act like this? It must be Isabella, that despicable woman, saying something behind my back, otherwise, why would he speak like this?”
Isabella looked at Samuel, her lips curled into a smile as she nodded in agreement, “True, my fault. After all, humans and animals can’t talk to each other.”
Samuel really was the one. Not a single curse word, yet it was enough to embarrass Ivana.
Ivana tried to say something more, but Samuel didn’t give her the chance, closing the car window and shutting everything

He said coldly, “Eyesore.”
Samuel’s words made Isabella’s smile grow wider, and suddenly curious, she laughed and asked, “Isn’t she so gentle and lovely, don’t you feel even a little sympathetic for her?”
After all, Jayden was initially drawn to Ivana’s sweet and charming demeanor.
A delicate little girl like her naturally brought out a man’s protective instincts.
Samuel’s brow twitched as he glanced sideways at Isabella and frowned, asking. “Are you questioning if there’s something wrong with my eyes?”
Just looking at someone like Ivana for too long was hard on the eyes. He couldn’t understand why Isabella asked that question.
Isabella froze, looked ahead of the car, and sarcastically said, “Some people really do have eye problems. They treat women like that as if they’re treasures.”
Samuel’s gaze fell on Isabella, his eyes darkening slightly as he reached into the glove compartment for the candy.
He unwrapped it and placed it right at Isabella’s lips, “Have one, it’s sweet.”
Isabella turned to look at Samuel, momentarily startled.
His way of comforting someone was definitely unique.

She looked at the canity in amuel’s hand, lowered her head, and took it into her mouth.
The touch of her lips on his fingertips made Sarnuel freeze momentarily, his gaze suddenly deepening as he looked at Isabells
As Isabella tasted the candy, the creamy sweetness spread throughout her mouth, and the happiness on her taste buds quickly reached deep into her heart.
Her eyes narrowed slightly as she relaxed back in her seat. Running her tongue over her lips, she softly said. “Tastes good, really sweet.
The pink tip of her tongue caught Samuel’s attention, and the mory of their intimate kiss last night suddenly filled his mind
Samuel’s Adam’s apple moved up and down a few times before he quickly turned his gaze away.
But it was the fingertips that Isabella had just toucheil. He couldn’t help but pinch them with two fingers, a burning heat that wouldn’t go away within him.
In a raspy voice, he murmured. “Let’s go.”
Isabella noticed something off in his voice, turned back to him with a puzzled expression, and asked, “What’s wrong with – your voice! Did you catch a cold?”
He seemed perfectly fine just a moment ago, and then suddenly, it changed like this out of nowhere.
Samuel cleared his throat, “It’s nothing.”
But his voice only got hoarser, clearing it didn’t help at all.
Isabella turned slightly, a worried expression on her face, “What’s going on?”
As she spoke, she reached out to touch Samuel’s forehead, carefully feeling its temperature, and then touched her own forehead.
Isabella murmured, “No high fever…”
Yet she still couldn’t stop worrying, her palm gently rubbing Samuel’s cheek.
Her soft fingers roamed everywhere, like little flames, making Samuel’s body temperature rise significantly.. Samuel grabbed Isabella’s hand, which kept moving around, and whispered, “Bella, don’t move around.”
Isabella looked up into Samuel’s eyes, which were filled with desire.
In that moment, it was like a fire suddenly ignited on Isabella’s face.
Isabella quickly sat up straight, her eyes avoiding Samuel as she stared directly ahead.
Her heart beat faster in that instant.
Isabella tried to pull her hand back, but Samuel held it tightly, his voice rough, “Let me hold it for a while.”
They were just simple words, yet to Isabella, they burned like wildfire, making her heart tremble.

Chapter 198
The car started millity, big Isabella’s mind was in turmoil Shazed out the window, gently biting her lower lip.
The mood changed quickly.
Hei fongue wrapped around the milk candy she bit into, the swt taste spreading once more,
A slow smile curled on Isabella’s lips as she suddenly looked at Samuel and teasingly asked. “So, Mr. Howerton, do you want a kiss?”
The car suddenly stopped Luckily, they weren’t going fast, so nether of them got hurt.
Samuel looked at Isabella, his eyes growing more intense. He geted his teeth and asked, “Did you do that on purpose?”
She knew he was holding back but she was so bold.
His gaze was so intense that Isabella couldn’t take it; she quickly turned to look out the car window and cleared her throat, “No, I trust you’re a gentleman who won’t be easily tempted.
But the smile in her eyes was undeniable.
Samuel was speechless; she was using his own words against him
Letting go of Isabella’s hand, he looked straight ahead and started the car again, saying, “One day, you’ll find a gentleman who won’t waver.”
Isabella raised an eyebrow, sensing the threat in his words.
t if I’m really
She pressed her tongue against the roof of her mouth and slightly curved her lips. The always aloof and uncaring Samuel had another side to him. He seemed a bit cute.
Ivana watched as the car carrying Isabella and Samuel gradually disappeared from view, her eyes filled with anger.
Her long nails were nearly digging into her skin.
She thought, Where did that awful Isabella find such a great man?
“Everyone seemed to be gathered around her.
“What exactly did that awful woman do to deserve this?’
Jenny finally snapped out of her shock, realizing that Isabella actually had such an amazing boyfriend.
She wondered if she chose the wrong side from the beginning.
She frowned, thinking. No, even if I have, what can I do about it now? I have to bet on Ivana taking over the Stout Group There are no options left now.”
Jenny composed herself and approached Ivana, whispering softly, ‘Ms. Ivana Stout, we…”
“Why are you shouting? You’re here to laugh at me too, aren’t you?” Ivana interrupted Jenny before she could finish speaking.
As Ivana spoke, her eyes swept over the crowd that had initially gathered to watch the scene.
With Isabella and that man gone, the crowd slowly dispersed, leaving only Laura watching.
Luckily, they didn’t see her lose her temper.
Ivana breathed a silent sigh of relief, but her look towards Laura wasn’t friendly.
