Chapter 85 She Was Beaten
But he remained cold and distant.
“You are innocent now, Joy may not have intended to offend you,” Warren sneered.
“I won’t admit to something I didn’t do. I know you’re a business tycoon, and you don’t like female entrepreneurs. But I have my principles. Believe it or not, it’s up to you,” Isabelle said with a faint smile.
Isabelle’s red lips became even more rosy due to the heating. Warren’s gaze darkened. He particularly missed Isabelle’s kisses.
Warren’s Adam’s apple bobbed, but his tone remained cold. Warren deliberately sneered, “Congratulations! If you had been caught, you would have been sentenced to life imprisonment. Who was the fool who saved you? Your husband?”
Isabelle was taken aback by the life sentence. She murmured, “My friend said it would be at most a few decades.”
“Ignorance,” Warren looked coldly and disdainfully, “If the Lopez family sues you for the fake diamonds, they will definitely ensure that the sentence starts with life imprisonment for the 500–million–dollar loss.”
Isabelle suddenly became afraid.
Warren said sarcastically, “Do you really think your ex can save you? Chandler has a bad temper, and Ken is a cunning person. Would Ken go out of his way to attract hatred for you? If you have an issue with your eyes, go get them treated.”

angry that she didn’t think clearly
to Brandon when her husband stormed in.
Later, Isabelle became extremely angry and sarcastically remarked that Warren didn’t answer the phone and that he didn’t have anything
important going on that night.
Isabelle thought, “If it was L who saved me, then didn’t he misunderstand? No wonder he was so angry with me.”
Isabelle clenched her delicate fingers. Her expression was frustrated, and her face turned pale.
Warren looked on, and he secretly thought with joy, “Does she know she was wrong? Is she regretful?” Warren’s deep and handsome eyes softened slightly.
However, the next second, Isabelle angrily bit her lip and lifted her head to argue with Warren, “Even if he misunderstood, he shouldn’t curse at me without asking for the reason. Does he know how much I have suffered?”
Warren frowned and asked, “What other grievances did you suffer?” Warren wondered, “Wasn’t she just scared?”
Isabelle’s eyes were filled with tears. Although the person in front of her was a stranger, Isabelle still felt inexplicably wronged. Isabelle rolled up her sleeves and coldly said, “I was deliberately beaten in the detention center, and even my child was in danger. But you people, only care about your dignity and jealousy. He didn’t even notice my wounds! He even mocked me and said I looked fine…”
What?
Warren suddenly became nervous. When he saw the large, deep bruises on her delicate wrist, he froze. Warren thought, “Was she beaten in prison?”

“Why didn’t anyone tell me?”
“I didn’t even realize that night… and I still scolded her like that.”
“Why didn’t the caregivers tell me these days?”
Warren was shocked. He thought, “How could she endure being beaten when she is so fragile? Damn it! I have been so angry these days that I didn’t even notice!”
“Did it… hurt?”
“It was me who was in pain,” Isabelle gritted her teeth and pushed up her sleeves defiantly, “I can still remember when I was in the
bathroom, violently vomiting for his child, Brandon just handed me a tissue. He even spread rumors that I kissed my ex. I’m so angry at this idiot.”
Warren didn’t know what to say.
Warren was stunned. He thought, “I wonder how many more bruises she has on her body? She looks so frail, and she has even lost some weight these days!” Seeing Isabelle in apparent pain, Warren felt extremely remorseful.
“She was so angry because I neglected to care for her, and I kept mocking her.”
Warren attempted to hold Isabelle’s hand. He wanted to take her hand and caress it. Isabelle sensed it. She immediately pulled back and cautiously asked, “Mr. Levine, what are you doing?”
Warren squinted and thought, “She still remembered that she was a married woman. That day, when she and Brandon were in the bathroom, maybe they really were…..”
“Thank you for listening to me explain today and putting up with me

venting so much. I will get Luck Jewelry back in my hands. You should be wary of me,” Isabelle said as she picked up her bag and walked away with a smile.

Warren leaned back in his chair. His long legs had nowhere to rest comfortably. His slender ankles peeked out from his trousers, making his handmade leather shoes look particularly serious, just like his face.
“Damn it,” he squinted as he watched her figure walk away.
Sheldon followed Warren back to the office immediately. Warren said coldly, “Go find out what she went through that night in jail.”
“Also, why didn’t her medical records mention her bruises these days?” Warren checked the condition of the fetus every day. He didn’t mention it, but he still cared about her.

Amy received a call from the hospital. She walked into her private office. The person on the other end of the phone said, “Ms. Watson, Mr. Levine suddenly questioned why Isabelle’s medical record did not mention her injury. I replied that it was not specified in the medical record due to her being pregnant and unable to take medication.”
Amy paused and said, “Well done. I will handle the matter of your promotion to director.”
After hanging up the phone, Amy squinted her beautiful eyes. She instructed another doctor to conceal Isabelle’s injury, hoping to make Isabelle misunderstand that Warren doesn’t care about her. Amy wished for Isabelle and Warren to break up.
“Wasn’t Warren still angry? How did he suddenly start caring about Isabelle?”
Amy had a bad premonition, so she picked up a stack of files and

walked towards the CEO’s office on the top floor.
Sheldon is reporting, “I have asked the attending physician and the nurse. The medical records do not specify that pregnant women cannot take medication. Moreover, the nurse said that Mrs. Levine goes to the restroom for a while every day. She might be secretly applying medication to herself.”
Warren thought, “What? My woman needed to secretly apply medicine to herself?” Warren deeply regretted his negligence.
Warren remembered that Isabelle had mentioned earlier that she had morning sickness. Suddenly, Warren felt an urgent desire to see Isabelle and their unborn child, and to apply medicine to Isabelle’s hand.
As he thought, Warren said coldly, “Dismiss that doctor!”
As soon as Amy walked in, she heard that Warren was resigning as the attending physician. Thinking that it might be because of what Isabelle did, Amy couldn’t help but clench her fists.
Behind his desk, Warren stood by the tall window, but he didn’t feel like working. Warren wanted to do something else, but he was suppressing himself. He said, “Sheldon, call Alex and ask him to throw a party tonight. It’s been a while since we all got together.”
“What? You used to be a workaholic! In the past, Mr. Herman would invite you to gatherings, and you would always refuse him.”
Puzzled in his mind, Sheldon still followed through. Then he heard Warren casually but with a deep enunciation say, “Have him bring along that girl.”
“Which girl?” Sheldon wondered.
