Chapter 56 Isabella hadnât planned to stay at the Hill family home for long, so she brought only a few simple belongings.
After quickly unpacking, she sat on the edge of the bed, lost in thought. She needed a way to obtain evidence of Nathanâs infidelity, as that would give her the leverage she needed to negotiate a divorce.
However, Nathan was a classic idealist. His love for Victoria was intense and blatantly public, yet Isabella had never caught.
them in any explicit or compromising situations. It seemed she would have to intervene and give their relationship a little push. to solidify her claims against him.
Taking out her phone, Isabella went to the second bedroom, lay on the bed, and snapped a series of photos. She uploaded the pictures as a nineâgrid post to her social media, visible only to Victoria.
The caption read:
*âThank you, dear husband, for decorating this room for me. Itâs so romantic. I love it.â*
After posting, she returned to her own room and waited for Victoriaâs reaction.
Based on her understanding of Victoria, she knew her stepsister had a saintly facade, but deep down, she was as calculating as anyone. Confident in Nathanâs love for her, Victoria often 17.00 Chapter 56 26ll Vouchers pretended she was above petty competition. However, when it came to matters that directly impacted her, she was incredibly territorial.
Now that Isabella was back, she would deliberately compete with Victoria, forcing her to reveal her true colors.
As expected, it didnât take long before Victoria messaged her, sounding agitated:
*âIsabella, are you back at the Hill family home?â*
Isabella looked at the text, easily imagining Victoriaâs livid expression on the other end. She decided to provoke her further:
*âYes, dear sister. Nathan asked me to come back and live a good life with him.â*
There was no response for a long time.
Isabella smirked. Could Victoria really not handle this? She was only using her own methods against her.
Then, Victoriaâs messages poured in like a tidal wave:
*âIsabella, Nathan doesnât love you. A marriage without love canâ t last. I advise you to step aside early and find someone else.â
Isabella maintained a relaxed demeanor and replied lazily:
*âLove is the most worthless thing in the world. As long as I remain Mrs.Hill, Iâll enjoy the protection of the Hill family- money, status, fameâyou name it. I wouldnât be foolish enough. to give up such wonderful things.*
17021 Chapter 56 208 Vouchers Victoria grew even angrier:
*âWhy are you so stubborn? Isabella, you should know that someone like you, with no background, will never be accepted by the Hill family elders.â*
Isabella clenched her phone tightly, her tone turning sharp:
*âVictoria, we share the same bloodline. Both of us have a mentally ill mother and a father who abandoned his wife and daughters. If I canât gain the approval of the Hill family elders, do you think you can?â*
Victoria responded confidently:
*âIâll prove to you that the Hill family elders will accept me.â*
Isabella replied:
*âIâll be waiting to see that.â*
Having successfully provoked Victoriaâs jealousy and anger, Isabella tossed her phone aside, satisfied. She let Victoria stew in her emotions while she got a peaceful nightâs sleep.
The next morning, Isabella slept in until late. After a leisurely wash, she finally went downstairs.
In the living room, Nathan sat on the sofa, smiling softly at his phone. But the moment his gaze landed on Isabella, his smile vanished.
Unbothered, Isabella walked straight to the dining room.
Noticing there was no breakfast prepared for her, she turned to Nathan and asked, 17.02 Chapter 56 288 Vouchers.
*âWhereâs my breakfast?â*
*âIsabella, as the daughterâinâlaw of the Hill family, you shouldnât be sleeping in,â* Nathan replied stiffly. *âYour breakfast? My mother threw it in the trash. You can go hungryâitâll teach you a lesson.â*
Isabella let out a dry laugh. âIâll take care of my own stomach, thank you.â*
She then headed to the kitchen, where she took out eggs, selected the finest fruits, grabbed some bread, and prepared a fresh pizza. She laid out a lavish breakfast on the dining table and enjoyed it with great enthusiasm.
Watching her aloof figure, Nathanâs gaze deepened.
âYou spent two years abroad and learned nothing but indulgence,â he remarked, his disdain practically dripping from his words.
