295 She Wants To Be More Carefree

Because of Rosa’s words, Isabella decided to dress up well tonight.

Also, she decided to tidy up her mood.

Isabella thought, ‘Mom was right. I cannot put all my eggs in one basket.

‘Joseph no longer cares about me and is with Stella now, then why do I have to be sad about that?

‘Lukas and I have been friends since we were kids. Although I have loved him for many years, I still feel relieved when I know he will get married. As for Joseph, I had only known him for about one month and was bullied by him. So I think I’ll let go of him even faster.

‘My heartbreak is only a temporary feeling. When I completely put it down, I won’t be sad anymore...

‘Cheer up, Isabella. Don’t depend on others.

‘I wanted to cling to Lukas, but he dropped me for the sake of his family business. Then I wanted to depend on Joseph, but he left me because his ex-girlfriend had returned.

‘I can’t depend on anyone but only myself! Happiness has to be fought for by myself!

.....

‘Since mom said that the man I would meet today was nice, I’ll win his heart. Regardless of whether he loves me or not, as long as he has a good personality and treats me well, that is enough!’

Isabella then saw the box of her dress prepared by Carl was on the bed. She then opened it.

Inside the box was a light blue dress inlaid with five-colored crystals. It was obviously expensive.

Of course, this dress was suitable for a blind date.

However, Isabella threw it to the side, opened the cabinet, and picked out a gorgeous red dress from her clothes.

She tied up her hair and put on a pair of golden earrings and luxuriant jewelry.

Then, she wore crimson lipstick and put on long false eyelashes, black eyeliner, and a charming golden eye shadow on her eye sockets.

Isabella looked at her reflection in the mirror.

Her makeup was alluring and eye-catching.

Isabella smiled in satisfaction.

She then stepped downstairs.

Carl and Rosy had already knocked off, and Lukas was also here. They were now sitting by the table and looking at the design drawing of Rosy’s new house, which seemed to be discussing the details.

When they saw Isabella, they were all stunned.

Lukas put on a surprised face. Rosy frowned. Seeing this, Carl said directly, “Didn’t I tell you to wear that blue dress? It’s a blind date, and you can’t dress improperly.”

Isabella smiled and said, “I heard that there would be a lot of competitors tonight. Even if my dress is not proper, it is better than being ignored.”

Carl thought about it and saw a sense of self-confidence in his obedient daughter. He nodded, “That makes sense. Let’s go. I’ll send you there now.”

Isabella nodded and smiled at Rosy and Lukas before leaving with Carl.

When the door closed, Lukas lowered his eyes and asked casually, “Who is Isabella going on a blind date with?”

Rosy said in a coy tone, “Do you care about her?”

Lukas smiled and held Rosy’s face, “Little fool, she is just our younger sister. Also, if she gets married, you won’t have to worry about me all the time.”

Rosy curled her lips into a smug smile, “I heard that the man was the only son of the Stretton family, Cedric, and he just came back from abroad. Because he didn’t want to get married, the Stretton family sent invitations to all the famous families in Peace City that had a daughter. In fact, this blind date is held for Cedric to pick a wife.”

Rosy paused for a moment and teased, “Isabella really did her utmost for this date. She must have heard that the man was Cedric, so she dressed up like this. Look at her appearance, obviously, she wants to seduce Cedric and becomes rich.”

Lukas frowned. “Cedric...”

“Yes, I heard that Cedric is calm and generous. This time, he will marry a woman to be the young mistress of the Stretton family and his wife. If Isabella wears that and goes to the date, she will definitely be laughed at.”

Rosy clapped her hands and laughed, “If I didn’t know, I would have thought that she was a hooker from Imperial Entertainment and had gone to the wrong place! Well, Isabella is going to lose face today!”

...

Carl drove to the outskirts of the city.

Although the host’s villa this time was located in the famous villa area of Peace City, it stood alone halfway up the mountain. The villa’s shape was unique from the outside, and its design was magnificent.

It was like a king’s palace in this area.

Isabella was shocked by the villa when she got off the car.

“The Stretton family mainly focuses on medicine and design. It is said that the family is also involved in military affairs and gangs. In short, it is a quite powerful family.”

Carl parked the car outside the heavily guarded gate and said with gloomy eyes, “Today, apart from the people on the ball invitation list, they won’t allow anyone to enter, so I can’t go in. So you’d better be careful.”

Isabella nodded, “Got it.”

“If you can win the young master’s heart of this family, you’ll be able to be a celebrity. Understand?”

Although that man might be a good man, Isabella still felt disgusted when she heard Carl say this. She smiled, “I’m dressed so well today. Can’t you tell that I really want to get him?”

Isabella then looked up at Carl, “If the young master of this family can really fancy me, I will definitely repay you for raising me.”

Carl suddenly felt that Isabella had changed.

Perhaps it was because her makeup was too gorgeous or because her red lips were too charming, but today, Carl felt that Isabella was more stern than usual.

She said, “repay well”, but Carl felt these words were so harsh.

“If you don’t have anything else to tell me, I will go inside.”

Isabella smiled sweetly at Carl and entered the gate.

The villa was actually much bigger than she imagined.

As night fell, there were golden street lamps on both sides of the road in the front courtyard. The pattern on each street lamp pole was a sculpture, which was very exquisite.

Even the street lamps that were placed outside were artistic. So it was not strange that this family was famous for design.

The shape of the fountains, flowers and even the pebbles on the ground were all fashionable.

Isabella suddenly felt that this villa was no longer an ordinary house but a magnificent work of art as a museum.

“Look who is here. That’s Isabella!”

A burst of mocking laughter rang out. Isabella turned her head and saw Dorothy, a close friend of Rosy’s.

“That’s true.”

Sarah looked Isabella up and down and said, “Oh my god, I thought it was a hooker from Empire Entertainment Center who came out of the wrong way. Look at her. She is too coquettish.”

Sandra immediately echoed, “Don’t say we know her later. She will definitely be kicked out. Mr. Cedric only invites decent people to his house. Her appearance will ruin the Stretton family’s party.”

Isabella frowned and glanced at the three people in front of her.

Dorothy was wearing a long white dress, while Sarah and Sandra were wearing pink and yellow short skirts of the same style.
