235 Return Ho for Information
“Okay.”
“If Carl asks you to participate in any activities and gatherings, just refuse and say I don’t allow you to go.”
“No problem.”
Isabella hung up and was in a good mood.
She enjoyed such a peaceful life. She had wanted to marry a romantic man but fell in love with Joseph, who wasn’t romantic at all. However, she was very satisfied.
Just like before, Rosa was the only one who welcod Isabella. Carl and Rosy had not gotten off work. John was recuperating from his injured leg at ho. When he saw Isabella, he snorted.
Isabella ignored him but handed Rosa a box of pastries. “Mom, try this. It’s delicious.”
“How exquisite!”
Rosa was a little surprised. “Isabella, where did you get it?”
.....
Isabella lied, “My classmate opened a pastry store. She gave a box for free.”
“This must be very expensive.”
Rosa looked at the pastries happily. “It’s like a work of art.”
“It tastes great!”
Hearing this, John looked towards them and said, “Mom, give a taste!”
Rosa imdiately gave it to him. After eating a piece, he imdiately held the box in his arms and stuffed more into his mouth.
“Slow down, or you will choke on it.”
Rosa hurriedly poured so water for John. She spoiled him, indulging his every whim.
Isabella walked over with a shrug and left half of the pastries to John. “It’s enough. You can eat half of it. Leave the rest to our mom.”
“You’re so stingy.” John squinted at her, but he could not stand up and snatch it because of the injury.
Isabella was in a good mood, so she did not bother to argue with him. She took the pastry box and walked into the kitchen. “Mom, it’s for you.”
“John likes it, so why not give all to him? I don’t want to eat.”
“He has more good things than you do. When I am not at ho, they don’t care about you at all. You must take good care of yourself.”
“Okay.” Rosa smiled and put a piece of pastry into her mouth. “If you marry far away in the future, perhaps no one will be so nice to anymore. It tastes so good.”
Isabella smiled and said affectionately, “Mom, give so ti. I promise I will not leave you alone.”
“Alright. You must be tired from the study. You can watch TV and have a good rest. I will cook sautéed pork for you!”
“I’ll help you.”
“No, just go and rest.”
As they were talking, Carl and Rosy got off work, together with Lukas, who would get married to Rosy.
“I was wondering why I slled sautéed pork. It turns out that Isabella is back.”
Rosy rolled her eyes and sneered. “You seldom cook for .”
“Rosy, if you like it, I will make it for you every day.” Rosa hurriedly said.
Rosy said disdainfully, “I don’t dare to do that. If I annoy you and you say sothing to my father, he will get back.”
“I won’t do that. I always treat you as my biological daughter.”
Rosa carefully comforted Rosy, which showed that she had a very low status in this family. Seeing this, Isabella was upset.
As the mistress, Rosa didn’t get the respect she deserved.
Thus, Isabella decided to take her mother out of the Smith family after she and Joseph got married in the future.
“Isabella, how long until you graduate?” Carl asked at the table.
Isabella replied truthfully, “The comncent is on the 16th of this month. After the graduation party or sothing, I will leave the university on the 20th.”
“That’s good.” Carl said leisurely, “Rosy is about to get married anyway. I will introduce a few blind dates to you. You can get married after graduation.”
Isabella had intended to decline with the excuse that she wanted to work first, but Rosa winked at her. Hence, she said, “Thank you, Dad.”
“I think she’d better get a stable job first. As a graduate, she should gain so work experience,” Lukas suggested.
Unexpectedly, the mont Lukas finished speaking, Rosy was dissatisfied. “What’s wrong, darling? It seems you don’t want Isabella to get married.”
He frowned. “I am just offering my advice.”
“Lukas, I know what you want. Don’t try to be a two-tir!”
“Rosy, why are you so unruly?”
Seeing that they were about to have a fight, Isabella stood up and said, “I have things to do tonight, so I have to go upstairs to get so clothes and leave. Mom, can you help find the clothes?”
Rosa hurriedly stood up. “Alright, I’ll help you.”
When they went upstairs to the room, Rosa closed the door and heaved a sigh of relief.
Rosa looked so cautious, so Isabella threw herself into Rosa’s arms, saying sadly, “I’ll leave in a while. They might throw a tantrum at you. I’m sorry.”
“It is not your fault.”
Rosa said as she gently patted Isabella on the head, “Don’t worry. As long as you’re fine, it doesn’t matter at all. Anyway, I’m used to it.”
Isabella choked. “Mom, I won’t go on a blind date. I ca back just to tell you that I have fallen in love with a man.”
Rosa was surprised. “Isabella, you have a boyfriend! Who is he? Do I know him?”
Isabella smiled and wiped her tears. “He will co to visit you when I graduate. Although he looks cold, he is very nice to .”
Looking at Isabella’s happy face, Rosa also cried. “It’s good that he is nice to you. But your father wants you to marry a rich man. I’m afraid you...”
“Mom, don’t worry about that. I believe my boyfriend will deal with that.”
She pulled Rosa’s hands. “You will be proud of in the future. I will support you so that they won’t dare to bully you.”
“Isabella, I’m so happy...”
They hugged each other and cried. Isabella took out a photo from her handbag. “Mom, I want to show you sothing.”
“What...”
Before Rosa could finish speaking, she looked at the person in the photo and burst into tears. “It’s Slike. Isabella, how did you get this photo?”
Isabella looked towards the door and said directly, “We are short on ti. I’ll tell you about this later. I want to know if Carl got involved with the design of my father’s restaurant.”
Rosa was stunned. “Yes, they were classmates and had a good relationship. When Slike decided to open the restaurant, Carl helped with the design without taking money, so your father offered him so shares. Later, when the restaurant went bankrupt, Carl not only did not ask for compensation but also helped us to pay the debt.”
Isabella nodded thoughtfully. “I see.”
“What is wrong?”
Isabella said with a smile, “Nothing. When I saw the photo, I was surprised that they had worked together.”
