Hirit a second, fint this a great opportunity? It’s such a coincidence, even my lipstick seems to know I need the chance to use the makeup room You Alexander, you really are my lucky star!

Immediately, Isabella looked at Josiah with anticipation Josiah would’ve had the perfect vantage point to witness Alexander’s entire operation if he had been paying attention. However, he missed it, so upon realizing the situation, he prepared to stand up and guide them.

Isabella immediately said. “It’s fine, just give me the directions. I can find the place myself.”

I can’t let Josiah accompany me. Regardless of whether Dakota is here to confront Josiah in person. I can’t interfere with others fate, but I can gossip. I just can’t start one. That’s the professional integrity of a gossiper.

“Huh?” Josiah was taken aback.

No worries, Audrey is still in the makeup room, she’ll take care of you if you need anything” Caleb arrived. Probably overhearing their conversation, he cheerfully said to Isabella, “It’s the first room on the -second floor, easy to find. There’s no off–limits area in our house, feel free to explore if you’re interested.

The backyard garden and the rooftop terrace offer quite the view.”

Reading the room, it was likely that he had already noticed their boredom. After all, the other guests hadn’t arrived yet, and the party hadn’t officially begun.

Indeed, the young people in their family were dreadfully boring.

Once again, Isabella found herself having a good impression of Caleb. In truth, people from such prominent families often treated her with varying attitudes. Yet, up until then, Caleb had always been generous and cordial, warm and friendly. From another perspective, his respect for Alexander extended to Alexander’s wife. In that regard, he was far more considerate than his wife and younger brother.

Once again, she cast a sympathetic glance at him. Why did such an exceptional person have to encounter such a predicament? He deserves so much better!

Isabella quickly stood up, eager to gossip, not noticing Alexander also rose from his seat and trailed after her Before he left. Alexander could feel the palpable resentment from his family.

He had no choice though. It was reasonable for him to accompany his wife but he couldn’t exactly bring the whole family along Even though they knew it was impossible, they could only endure and pray that Isabella’s thoughts would. reach them, providing a live feed for them to savor the firsthand gossip.

Upon seeing Alexander following Isabella without any hesitation, Josiah was momentarily taken aback.

I haven’t really got used to this ever since the reunion.

“What kind of charin does Isabella possess that made Alexander become… so different in just six months?”

?T.

Christopher glanced at Josiah, saying, “The power of love, of course. They’re a married couple, so it’s perfectly mal for them to be inseparable. What about you? Don’t you and your girlfriend cling to each are you guys independent?”

Immediately, Josiah felt a stab through his heart, his complexion turning somewhat unpleasant. He assumed Christopher had unintentionally touched a sore spot and decided not to respond.

Suddenly, from another side, Rosalie interjected. “Josiah, where’s your girlfriend? Didn’t she come?”

Feeling the blow once again, Josiah could only bite the bullet and say, “She’s not free.”

Finally, Evian said leisurely. “So, you have a girlfriend. I haven’t heard about that before.”

Josiah was struck again.

Do these people really have to talk about this?

In reality, only his friends and family knew that he had a girlfriend since he had never publicly shown her off. Given his reputation as a spoiled silver–spooned kid, most people would quickly forget it even if they heard about it. Even his own family didn’t care much about the girlfriend Josiah had never officially introduced and simply assumed Josiah wasn’t serious.

After all, they had heard that he had a girlfriend, but before they could meet her Josiah had broken up with his girlfriend before they knew who it was.

The Hamptons had already gotten used to it.

At that time, guests started to arrive one after another. Caleb led Josiah to greet the arriving guests.

Meanwhile, Isabella had already reached the edge of the battlefield, but there was a slight hiccup.

However, it wasn’t related to Alexander following her.

At first, Isabella was rather perplexed about Alexander following her, but before she could dwell on it further, she caught the conversation coming from the makeup room. The voices were quite clear, audible to anyone who had ascended the staircase..

-I refuse to believe you hiring me twice is a mere coincidence, and this time at such an outrageous price. What’s your game? I’m no fool, so don’t bother testing me. I knew from the start that my so–

called boyfriend is the second son of the Hampton family.”

Well, look at that! The door isn’t even shut! And here I’m planning to sneakily eavesdrop from outside.

However, someone gently tugged at her wrist.

When Isabella turned around, she saw Alexander giving her a look, indicating that they should lean against the wall to listen.

Well, turns out Alexander is quite the gossip too. It’s understandable, though. Who can resist eavesdropping on such a crucial conversation?

Isabella was always quite generous with sharing information, so she took out her phone and typed out a message, letting Alexander know that the person inside was Dakota.

Alexander cooperated, showing an expression of surprise.

Alexander frowned, showing his displeasure at Josiah’s actions.

Isabella was instantly relieved. Thankfully, their perceptions aligned, and agreed it was Josiah’s problem If it weren’t for the inconvenience of typing, Isabella would’ve taken the time to have a good discusson with Alexander right then and there The conversation inside was still ongoing “So, you knew all along yet still kept the relationship going. Just as I thought, how can a woman like you let go of such a wealthy man, knowing he is the second son of the Hampton family? However, Josiah is also at fault for deceiving you like this. Lapologize on his belulf”

D“mn, even an actress can’t act as good as she does! I really want to see the look on her face right not Isabella casually complained silently when suddenly her phone was snatched from her hands.

Isabella was surprised to watch Alexander open an app on her phone, turn the camera around, extend hi arm. adjust the angle, and zoom in on the screen. Soon, Isabella could see the scene inside the room from the phone’s display.

At that moment, Audrey stood face–to–face with Dakota.

Isabella watched Alexander’s smooth movement, her eyes wide in surprise as she turned to look at him.

This guy is seriously impressive! He even mastered the skills of a paparazzi!

Alexander’s hand trembled slightly, almost ruining the scene. His lips twitched. This is just basic math and physics, though.

Isabella was elated because she had both sound and visual of the confrontation happening in the makeup room.

Heh, don’t blame us for peeking since you guys didn’t close the door–Huh? Wait a minute, why didn’t they close the door? Aren’t they afraid of getting caught? They can’t be sure that no one is coming up here, right!

The Quirks were eavesdropping on Isabella’s thoughts from a floor below.

However, they saw the other ladies from the Hampton family whispering to Lorelei. As they were seated nearby, they could overhear their conversation.

“Have you fixed your hair? Do you want to head upstairs and do something about it?”

“No, this is fine.

“Then I won’t touch up my makeup and attend to the guests first.”

Is she… D*mn, she really is! Audrey is waiting for the women of the Hampton family to come upstairs to do their makeup or touch–ups to witness everything and let them discover the relationship between Dakota and Josiah. She’s setting the stage for their breakup, completely cutting off any potential reconciliation. She’s already Jossah’s sister–in- law and ex–girlfriend, so can’t she tolerate his current girlfriend? She’s using various means to prevent them from being together.
