Isabelle lowered her gaze slightly. She was waiting for Brandon.
“Why did you choose to collaborate with them? Was it intentional? Did you purposely embarrass me and make me fail in front of the Hodge family? Bella, you are so heartless!”
“I just want one thing. My uncle is my only relative. But you keep refusing. Who is heartless after all?” Isabelle suddenly stood up.
Tommy watched the excitement.
Kathy’s face slightly turned cold as she held the project proposal and asked Isabelle, “Isabelle, were you really sincere about collaborating?”
“Of course,” Isabelle turned her head, her face icy and serious. “Ms. Hodge, this collaborative project issued by Luck Jewelry is beneficial and harmless for your company. You can take it home and study it carefully. We can discuss further in a couple of days.”
“No way!” Brandon exclaimed, rushing to grab the project proposal. “Luck Jewelry will not collaborate with their company! Never!”
“Brandon, you are not the president of Luck Jewelry anymore, so you cannot make decisions on behalf of Ms. Spencer. Ms. Spencer, I will join forces with you.” Tommy sneered, picked up the project proposal, and left.
After Tommy and Kathy left, Brandon glared at Isabelle with fiery eyes and said, “Why did you push me to the brink? Ever since I lost my position as the CEO of Luck Jewelry, my grandfather has been disappointed in me! Today, Tommy stole the show at the Hodge Group’s shareholders‘ meeting. If you continue to collaborate with

Tommy and Kathy, I will be ridiculed in the Hodge family…”
Isabelle looked at Brandon with a cold expression, full of anxiety and anguish.
Once, when Brandon and Tonya pushed her to the brink, she too felt helpless and desperate.
Brandon deserved it.
Isabelle ignored his confession and walked out of the office. Brandon got angry and reached out to grab her.
Just at that moment, a beautiful figure walked into the company entrance. Brandon looked up and his handsome face froze completely.
The person who came was Emilee. Seeing Brandon entangled with Isabelle’s arm, her face immediately turned cold and she said, “Brandon, what are you doing?”
Emilie knew all about what happened with Brandon, Tonya, and Isabelle.
She was already concerned, but she also liked Brandon. Brandon approached her for marriage, with the intention of seeking support from the Yonge family.
Emilie walked away arrogantly.
From a few meters away, Isabelle watched as Brandon’s face turned cold. She approached him step by step and said, “It was me who contacted Ms. Yonge. I have a recording in my bag of the sweet words –you said to me last night when you tried to keep me. If I were to play it
for Ms. Yonge right now, Brandon… can you guess what the consequences would be?”
Your marriage with Ms. Yonge would be canceled, and you would

also lose the inheritance rights of the Hodge family.
You can also hand over the address book to me. In that case, I could cancel the collaboration with Tommy and Kathy!
Brandon clenched his fist as he looked at her small face, feeling both familiar and incredibly unfamiliar with the Isabelle in front of him.
Isabelle’s eyes were filled with coldness. She looked stunning and heartless, truly showing no love for him.
Brandon was still fantasizing about getting the inheritance of the Hodge family and reclaiming Isabelle back by his side.
It seems now that he was overestimating himself. Isabelle has grown up and long since left his world.
Brandon thought, “It was me who broke up with her! It was me being foolish, unable to judge people correctly! It was me being shallow, captivated by Tonya’s gentle appearance! It was me being selfish, unable to wholeheartedly love one person!”
Brandon’s eyes welled up with tears, his eyes turning red at the corners. At that moment, all his regrets surged up again, driven by self- interest.
Isabelle forced Brandon to make a choice. Brandon hesitated and looked at Isabelle with a gloomy expression, furrowing his brows tightly. He reluctantly spoke, “Fine, I’ll give you the contact book. Just don’t give the recording to Emilee. And I’m ending my collaboration with Kathy too!”
Isabelle pretended to reach into her bag and slightly withdrew her hand.
She looked at Brandon and felt a hint of amusement. She had not recorded anything. She was just deceiving Brandon. But she knew in

her heart that Brandon couldn’t afford to gamble anymore.
She looked at Brandon expressionlessly and said, “Okay.”
At that moment, Emilee walked angrily to the front. She was about to scold Isabelle when Brandon walked over, held her hand, and spoke softly, soothing her and coaxing her out.
Isabelle stood in the lobby of the company and sent a text message to Brandon, saying, “I had to get something today.”
Half an hour later, Brandon returned dejectedly and said, “Come with me to my house.”
D
Isabelle was cautious and asked the general manager of Luck Jewelry to accompany her as they got into Brandon’s car.
The car drove towards Brandon’s bachelor apartment. Isabelle didn’t want to talk along the way.
Brandon glanced at Isabelle’s delicate eyebrows and eyes through the rearview mirror several times, detecting a hint of calculation in her gaze. After meeting Isabelle yesterday, he went home and specifically opened the address book to take a closer look. He had never looked at it before. However, upon examining it last night, Brandon suddenly noticed a recurring and intriguing name.
At this thought, Brandon coldly curled his lips and glanced at Isabelle. He inexplicably said, “It’s good that you have the address book. Maybe you can discover some secrets.”
Isabelle frowned, not understanding the meaning of this sentence.
After arriving at the apartment, Brandon got off the car to fetch the address book.
Isabelle was waiting for him at the door.

The sun set, and the sky gradually turned black. After a while, Brandon came out with the notebook.
Isabelle saw the old yellowed notebook and a warm mist filled her eyes as if she saw her grandfather’s figure.
That was grandfather’s thing!
She quickly took it and turned to leave. However, Brandon grabbed her wrist. Isabelle frowned and turned back, “What else do you want?”
Brandon’s eyes emitted a thought–provoking cold gleam. He looked at Isabelle strangely and said, “Bella, yesterday I asked you if you knew the identity of the masked man beside you. You didn’t answer me. That means you still don’t know, right?”
“Do you know who that man could have been?”
Isabelle was taken aback. She couldn’t help but be curious about L’s identity. Just today, she couldn’t resist asking him again.
Seeing her eyes flicker, Brandon stepped forward, wanting to voice his
guess.
Isabelle interrupted distrustfully, “I won’t listen to your wild guesses. You don’t know him well, how could you possibly know who he is? I’m not curious because he is very much a part of my life.”
“Very real? Ha.” Brandon smirked meaningfully and glanced at the address book, reminding her, “There’s a name in the address book that you should take a good look at when you go back.”
If that masked man was really Warren… Ha.
Brandon sneered with a curled lip.
Isabelle frowned and looked at his cold smile, puzzled. She lowered

her head and tightly gripped her notebook, then turned and got in the
car.
Just as she was about to leave Brandon’s apartment, her phone
suddenly rang.
Isabelle looked and saw L. She quickly answered the call, with a smile on her face, “What’s up, L?”
“You’re not at the office?” Warren’s voice was low and cold, accompanied by a sinister tone. “You actually hid from me to meet Brandon. What did I tell you!”
“…” Isabelle speculated that Warren had definitely called Jarrett.
Then, in a fit of anger, he checked her whereabouts.
Isabelle frowned and felt a bit speechless, “I didn’t hide from you to meet him. I took a legitimate leave and had a legitimate reason to meet him. Listen to me…”
