Chapter 154 Acting On New Year’s Eve
David’s gaze turned cold. He knew Warren held immense power, but he didn’t back down. “If that day comes, may the best man win.”
David left.
Warren stood in the elevator, his sharp gaze fixed on the back of David’s head. Sheldon could sense Warren’s anger and could tell that Warren’s mood was even worse.
Warren was not only provoked by his rival, but he is also in a cold war with Isabelle now… Sheldon sighed.
When the elevator door closed, Amy walked out from the side. She glanced at the descending elevator and then looked at David, lost in thought.
Did David really care about Isabelle so much?
Amy smirked and immediately called her assistant, “I asked you to check Isabelle’s whereabouts last night. How did the investigation go?”
Isabelle arrived at the police station in the morning, all wet and damp, which was definitely abnormal. Warren, who was angry at the time, didn’t pay attention to it.
The assistant replied to her, “Ms. Watson, I found out that David helped Isabelle sneak into the hospital and save Mr. Schweitzer. Later, David was drugged by the opponent in the middle of the night, and Isabelle rushed to the hotel. The two of them were trapped until morning before they managed to come out.”

Amy’s face changed, unexpectedly it was Isabelle who saved Mr. Schweitzer.
She knew that this bid was definitely related to Isabelle’s uncle, but she didn’t expect Isabelle to be helping Warren behind her back!
“Clear Isabelle’s tracks at the hospital from the past. Warren might investigate in the future. Amy cannot let Warren discover that Isabelle helped him behind his back.”
As for Amy, she smirked and said, “What did David and Isabelle do at the hotel? Go and see if there are any photos or videos.”
If Warren were to find out about this, Isabelle would undoubtedly be dead.
However, Amy is not in a hurry now. Isabelle has such an uncle who is already close to death. Amy just stays by Warren’s side, waiting for the right moment.
At night, Isabelle returned to Donsborough alone from Hoolypool. She had nowhere else to go, so she had to go back to Glenda’s apartment.
She fell to the ground as soon as she entered the door. The fetal movement was quite strong.
Isabelle was afraid of repeatedly burning the baby with a high fever, so she supported her body and took a bath. As she soaked, she fell asleep.
When Glenda came back at night, she saw Isabelle soaking in cold water, already unconscious. Her little hand was holding a phone, still on the news page about Harmo Real Estate.
The news of Harmo Real Estate losing the bid is a big deal in the business world. Glenda, who is always well–informed, has already

heard about it.
Glenda sighed and quickly helped Isabelle up, softly waking her, “Bella? Hurry up and get dressed, don’t catch a cold again.”
Isabelle groggily opened her eyes, her gaze vacant and her voice hoarse, “What time is it?”
“It’s almost midnight. Sigh… I already know. You made the bid, but sometimes it’s unavoidable to have data errors. Don’t blame yourself.”
Isabelle lowered her gaze and bitterly thought, “Glenda doesn’t understand the truth. How can I not blame myself?”
“Warren was quite dangerous this time. Luckily, Mr. Schweitzer is fine. Glenda was worried if Warren would confront you now,” Glenda saw Isabelle entering the apartment and was concerned if her relationship with Warren had worsened.
Isabelle did not speak and did not know how to talk to Glenda.
Glenda helped her up and gently touched her pale belly, “Baby is growing slowly. You shouldn’t worry about Amy anymore. You need to think about the baby who is about to be born.”
Isabelle’s body stiffened. Because of her uncle, she and Warren could no longer be together.
Glenda, however, was unaware, her eyes flickering as a reminder, “You’ve been living in a daze lately, not even realizing that tomorrow is New Year’s Eve. I have to go back to the Weber family’s old house tonight, and you…”
Isabelle paused for a moment, then quickly smiled and said, “You should go back and spend time with your parents. I’ll be fine here alone.”

Glenda hesitated and asked, “Aren’t you going back to Warren’s villa? Tomorrow is the first Spring Festival you two will be spending together after all.”
Isabelle’s nose tingled sharply, and she bit her lip tightly, almost unable
to hold back her tears. Her fingers trembled as she clutched her clothes, staring at the ground and saying, “We don’t have a chance anymore… Glenda.”
Glenda saw her pale face, her heart trembled, and she dared not say anything for a moment.
Did Warren not call Isabelle? Glenda dared not ask anything else, afraid of making Isabelle cry.
Τ
After spending some time with Isabelle, Glenda had to leave. She had to hurry to attend tomorrow’s morning prayer.
Isabelle stayed in the bedroom, sitting cross–legged until dawn. It was New Year’s Eve today, and it was snowing again in the sky. The outside was all white, exceptionally cold.
She didn’t return to the villa, it was already an attitude. Warren definitely understood…
The phone suddenly rang. Isabelle looked at it in surprise, and it turned out to be a call from Yvlan Villa!
Isabelle’s heart trembled, knowing that it must be a call from Tara.
Her fingers tightened slightly as she quickly answered the call, “Tara…”
Tara’s voice carried a hint of confusion and sadness, “Bella, on such an important day, why didn’t you come back?”
Isabelle bit her lip and remained silent.

Isabelle took a deep breath. She applied light makeup to cover her pale complexion, changed her clothes, and then left in her car.
Isabelle stood in front of the gate of Yvlan Villa. The soft snow covered the fence, and her breath formed wisps of white mist.
Isabelle stood still. The intelligent system of the gate recognized her face and automatically opened.
She walked in uneasily. In the familiar living room, the air was filled with the heavy scent of a man.
Tara sat on the sofa measuring her blood pressure. Isabelle glanced around the living room and didn’t see Warren.
“Bella!” Tara called out softly, naturally smiling at her and pointing towards the kitchen. “It’s good to have you back. Good girl, we’re preparing the New Year’s Eve meal. There aren’t many people at home. so it’s quite quiet. We agreed that everyone would make a dish.”
The atmosphere was quiet and harmonious. Tara seemed to be in a good mood.
Isabelle also made an effort to put on a smile. She rolled up her sleeves and washed her hands, following Tara’s instructions as she walked into the kitchen. “Tara, what would you like to eat? I’ll make it!”
“I didn’t have much of an appetite,” Tara looked very weak and smiled, “Just make a few dishes that Warren loves.”
Isabelle was slightly taken aback. Warren’s favorite food? Warren enjoys light meals and doesn’t like spicy food.
Isabelle didn’t expect that she had imprinted all these small details in her mind…
Isabelle felt even more suffocated in her heart. She took a deep breath

and said softly, “Maggie, let’s make soup first.”
“Okay, Mr. Levine loved to eat,” Maggie laughed and went to cut the
meat.
Isabelle washed the vegetables and was wondering how to make soup.
A chilling coldness swept over her from behind. Isabelle was familiar with Warren’s strong presence.
Afterwards, a hand silently approached her slender waist. Warren’s voice came from above, “Not skilled in cooking.”
