Chapter 212 Engaged To David
“The Lopez family had strict rules, and now the uncles and aunts are questioning Mr. Lopez’s involvement with married women outside. At the moment, it is necessary to justify your identity. In fact, even if you redeem the Luck Jewelry building, the company’s morale is unstable, and your shareholders will still gradually sell their shares!”
“Why not do something that benefits both parties? As long as you get engaged to him, the video will be legal, and he will be able to secure the Lopez Group.”
“And your company, it could also be sheltered, weighing the pros and cons, this is the best way.”
Isabelle held her breath, with two little people fighting in her mind.
Finally, the rational side prevailed over the emotional one.
She couldn’t help but assist David, as he had done so much for her.
Under Warren’s relentless pressure, Luck Jewelry would go bankrupt
in an instant.
Isabelle was about to give birth soon, but Luck Jewelry was unable to help her.
She had to seek refuge!
This was all forced by Warren.

Isabelle let out a silent and desolate cold laugh, closing her eyes. “I am not a heartless person. Please tell Mr. Lopez that if it is necessary to pretend to be engaged to him and help him, I am willing to do so, as

long as he can get out of the crisis.”
“Thank you, Ms. Spencer.”
The assistant hung up the phone happily and turned to look at the elegant man. “Mr. Lopez, congratulations on getting what you wanted. However, Ms. Spencer is clever. What she wanted was a pretend engagement.”
David’s dark eyes lifted, he took a puff of his cigarette and chuckled, “She truly is the woman I have chosen. It’s alright, there’s plenty of time ahead.”
“Once you stepped into the Lopez family’s door, everything wasn’t so easy anymore, right?”
He squinted his eyes slightly.
***
The Lopez Group released the news of Isabelle and David’s engagement plans. Regardless of any speculation from netizens about the video, it is now reasonable.
Netizens exclaimed a big turnaround, and there has been a significant shift in public opinion towards David’s criticism.
Isabelle returned to Glenda’s apartment, exhausted.
David’s message came immediately, “I didn’t expect my subordinate to secretly coerce you behind my back, Bella. If you don’t want to, I can clarify again.”
“No one forced me, Mr. Lopez. Besides, this is a fake engagement, so I didn’t sacrifice anything. You don’t need to have any psychological burden.”

David replied, “Bella, it was a fake engagement for you, but for me, felt like a dream come true.”
it
Isabelle’s typing hand paused for a moment, suddenly unsure of how to respond.
“Bella…” Glenda came to open the door, Alice was also there. They looked at Isabelle’s expression and all felt a bit strange.
“Is it true on the news? Have you thought about it?” Alice came over and asked, supporting her.
Isabelle smiled helplessly, her eyes filled with weariness and fear. “I can’t afford not to think it through. I want to protect Luck Jewelry and repay David’s kindness.”
Alice nodded and, under the circumstances, she said nothing more.
Isabelle entered the room with a protruding belly.
Glenda closed the door and came in, raising her eyebrows quietly. “Actually, I thought Mr. Lopez was not bad. If only Bella could…”
“It was too rushed, and I also hoped that Bella could break free from Warren’s spell. But it was difficult. I hoped that David would be a new surprise. He is not an ordinary person either, but his gaze towards Bella would never be wrong. His gaze is very gentle.”
Alice sighed.
In the small bedroom, Isabelle took off her scarf and gloves, checked the time, and realized it was already evening.
She had always been thinking about her cousin Enya, and following the contact information provided by Sheldon, Isabelle nervously made the call.
Chapter 212 Engaged To David
I waited for a long time before the call was connected. The person speaking was a girl’s voice, “May I ask who you are looking for?”
“Enya… Are you safe? I am your cousin, Isabelle. Has your father mentioned my name?”

“Isabelle!” the girl’s voice was clearly excited, and she burst into tears. “I was kidnapped over ten days ago and was only released this afternoon, but they didn’t harm me, just starved me for a few days… Isabelle, is my dad okay after he went abroad? Where is he? I want to talk to him for a few minutes.”
Faced with her request, Isabelle suddenly choked up.
Wesley’s daughter, sounded like a well–behaved child. That’s why Wesley was so unwilling.
Wesley’s wife abandoned him, he was ill and unable to take care of his daughter, so he desperately wanted to make a name for himself and fight for something that didn’t belong to him.
In the end, I personally sent him to prison.
Isabelle covered her mouth and nose, hiding her crying, unsure of how to tell Enya that Wesley had been sent to prison.
“Your father may take a few years before he can reunite with you. You are doing well abroad, and when I have time, I will make an effort to visit you.”
Isabelle kept talking and gradually curled up her knees, closing her eyes slightly. It was reasonable for Wesley to serve a sentence of two to three years in prison, but an indefinite term was clearly unreasonable.
Since she left Warren, she would find a way to appeal for Wesley and rescue him.

Isabelle took a deep breath. She knew she had a lot of things to do, she told herself to pull herself together.

The phone suddenly rang. Then David sent a text message, “Bella, where are you now? Shall I come and pick you up? It would be more suitable for you to live in my villa from now on.”
SO
Isabelle hesitated for a moment and remembered that they would be “engaged” in the future. She immediately said, “I am at Glenda’s house. I will no longer live in your villa. I will find an apartment tomorrow.”
“Then I will come to pick you up tomorrow evening to see the apartment.”
David was tactful and did not insist, “Now you should eat properly and think about the baby in your stomach.”
Isabelle smiled and realized that she had actually forgotten to eat.
Isabelle touched her belly and said with a hint of bitterness, “Baby, even though daddy has left you, mommy will love you very much and is looking forward to your arrival.”
Late at night, Amy knocked on the door of the study on the second floor while holding a cup of coffee.
Warren’s voice was hoarse and deep, “Come in.”
Amy walked in with a sweet smile and said, “Warren, you have already had four cups of coffee. Your stomach won’t be able to handle -it. You can leave any important work for tomorrow. Let me accompany
you to take a rest.”
Work was just an excuse; Warren wanted to keep himself busy like a machine.

His expression was cold and his handsome face had a faint shade of blue under the light. “I just slept in the afternoon. Amy, after you treated me, I slept twice and now I have a slight headache. Can these medical tools really cure my insomnia?”
Warren was confused.
Amy’s hand holding the coffee froze. In a moment of panic, she applied sleeping pills, but she couldn’t control the dosage properly.
“Warren, ever since you mentioned last time that Isabelle used some strange methods to put you to sleep, I have been worried. I urgently researched and developed this set of medical tools. It is safe and harmless.”
Anyway, since Isabelle is no longer here, Amy can say whatever she
wants.
Amy walked up to the man with a grievance and gently pressed his throbbing temples. “Maybe it was the side effects of those pills Isabelle gave you? She had ill intentions, and you saw it too.”
When Isabelle was mentioned, Warren’s pupils turned as cold as an ice-
cave.
Warren thought to himself, “In the past, I could not believe Amy and had illusions about Isabelle.”
“Now, why shouldn’t I believe it? Maybe Isabelle was just trying to harm me.”
Seeing him silent, Amy’s lips curled slightly. She used to slowly frame Isabelle for some time, but now there was an urgent matter.
Amy placed her hands on his shoulders and hesitantly spoke, “Warren, you’ve locked yourself in the study and haven’t been watching the news. There’s something, I don’t know if I should tell you.”

“What?”
Amy’s lips curled slightly, “Isabelle and David announced their engagement this afternoon.”
She felt that Warren had frozen.
Immediately after, the temperature in the entire room seemed to freeze.
After the silence, a violent rage surged.
The strategies Amy used today were aimed at making Isabelle join David, and David’s actions also pleased her greatly!
Amy added fuel to the fire and was furious, “How could Isabelle do such a thing? She is so despicable, getting happily engaged to another man right after divorcing you. Isn’t she intentionally trying to embarrass you?”
