Chapter 103 They were all deeply touched.
Leo was livid.
He yelled within his heart.
“Don't believe Ben. He's a repulsive and malevolent scoundrel,” he spoke up.
However, no one seemed to pay attention to him.
Moreover, according to everyone's perspective, Leo himself might have been the malevolent one.
What the hell was that? Isabella was not in a good mood either.
She knew very well how much Ben and Susan loved each other their previous lives.
But now, everything had to restart.
Why had nothing ever changed? Then, what was the point of her putting in so much effort to be with Ben after her rebirth? Could it be that she was destined to witness Ben and Susan's love from such a close vantage point? No, that was impossible. Life couldn't be so theatrical.
Since she had the chance to be reborn, she had to be the chosen one. How could she not get what she wanted? She just hadn't found the right way yet.
As Isabella looked at the somber Timothy beside her, an idea suddenly crossed her mind.
She vaguely remembered that Susan's first love was Timothy.
1/9 A Chapter 103 Even though Susan was married now, Timothy still liked her.
She knew this because Timothy had caused a significant problem later on, greatly infuriating both Ben and Susan.
But, Timothy and Susan had not completely fallen out with each other until now.
Susan had only married Ben for a short period of time, and there might still be some lingering feelings between her and Timothy.
In this scenario, if Isabella played her cards right, she might be able to accomplish something.
Isabella's eyes flashed and she came up with a crazy plan.
She knew that her plan was a bit risky.
But if she didn’t take the risk, how could Susan be removed from Ben's life? As long as she could succeed, it was worth the risk.
Thinking of this, Isabella tried to smooth things over in a soft voice. “It's all a misunderstanding. Miss Miller and | had a conflict because of some misunderstanding. But no one else was involved. Please give me some face and let this matter go.” Isabella's words brought everyone back to reality.
This matter had nothing to do with Ben and Leo at the beginning. It was clearly a conflict.
between Isabella and Yana.
Now that Isabella had spoken, Ben had no intention of pursuing it further, so everyone relaxed and let the matter pass with a sense of relief.
But after such a scene, they couldn't continue dancing.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIsabella instructed the staff to turn off the music. She then arranged for a variety of delicious food to be brought in for everyone to enjoy and take a break.
As for herself, she asked a waiter to bring red wine and accompany her to where Ben and Susan were.
2/9 A Chapter 103 “Mr. Landor, Mrs. Landor.” Isabella raised a glass of wine and said, “I'm sorry for causing such a big disturbance because of me. | sincerely apologize. To make amends, I'll take the first sip.” Isabella drank the entire glass of red wine in one go.
Her demeanor could be described as humble. Furthermore, Isabella was indeed an innocent person caught up in this situation.
Susan said, “Miss Smith, you don't need to do this. It's not your concern.” Isabella said with a wry smile, “After all, it happened at my banquet.” Isabella then shook her head as if she didn’t want to say anything more. She just handed the glasses to Ben and Susan in person and said, “This glass of wine is my way of apologizing. Mr. and Mrs. Landor, please accept my apologies for my mistake.” At this point, Ben and Susan had to take a casual sip as a gesture.
“Thank you for your understanding.” Isabella walked away with a touched expression on her face.
Susan looked at her back and said casually, “Miss Smith is actually quite a good person.” Really? Ben narrowed his eyes, and a meaningful expression flashed in them.
He always felt that there was a lot of strangeness about Isabella.
However, he couldn't pinpoint anything specific wrong with it for the time being.
Taly Even so, in his heart, Ben still silently regarded Isabella as someone who needed to be guarded against.
After drinking with Ben and Susan, Isabella turned around and went to look for Timothy and Yana.
When Yana saw her approaching, her expression instantly turned gloomy.
“What are you doing here?” Yana said coldly, “Do you want me to slap again?” 3/9 A Chapter 103 Yana didn't have a good—impression of Isabella at all.
After all, it was clear that Isabella was pretending. Isabella was exactly the same as she had been before.
Yana had no desire to greet her at all.
Yana was not polite at all, but Isabella could still manage to smile.
Isabella said softly, “I said something wrong before and made you misunderstand, Mrs. Leen. | really didn’t mean anything else. | came here to apologize with a glass of wine as a gesture of reconciliation.” With that, Isabella drank another glass of wine without hesitation.
Apologize? Yana looked at Isabella with slight suspicion.
Yana had slapped Isabella in the face, and Isabel/ was still so eager to apologize? Was there such a broad-minded woman in the world? In any case, Yana did not believe it.
However, Isabella's expression was very sincere.
She asked someone to bring a glass of wine to Timothy. “Mr. Leen, your wife is pregnant, so | won't offer her wine. Let's have a drink together and let bygones be bygones?” Isabella also took another glass of wine for herself.
Since Isabella's demeanor was so good, as a man, Timothy couldn't put on airs. He picked up his glass and drank it in one gulp.
Isabella's eyes flickered and she said with a gentle smile, “Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Leen.” Then, she turned around and left.
Yana looked at her with a puzzled expression.
4/9 A [e] Chapter 103 Isabella just left like that? Did she genuinely come here to make amends with them? Why did she find it so hard to believe Isabella? But the fact was plain to see, and it seemed that she had no choice but to believe it.
“Crazy woman.” Yana cursed in a low voice. She didn’t care about Isabella anymore and walked around by herself, enjoying the lively atmosphere of the banquet.
Timothy stood on the spot for a while.
However, he frowned and slowly sat down.
Feeling a little dizzy, Timothy vigorously rubbed his forehead.
What was going on? Why was he so dizzy? He had only consumed a single glass of wine, which was well below his usual alcohol tolerance. Why did he feel like he was about to get drunk? Timothy sat there alone, looking dazed.
When Isabella noticed Timothy's condition from afar, her gaze flickered, and then she looked toward Susan.
She had tampered with that glass of wine.
It appeared to be a regular glass of wine, but in reality, it had been mixed with several types of hard liquor! It was easy to make people intoxicated when they consumed a mixture of alcohol, especially considering how potent it was.
It was natural for Timothy to get drunk.
As for Susan, although she didn’t drink much.
5/9 A 6/9 Chapter 103 Isabella was not worried that Susan wouldn't get drunk at all.
Because Susan had a little secret that she didn’t even know herself.
That was, Susan couldn't drink a drop of alcohol at all.
In the past, Susan had to have blood drawn, so she wasn't allowed to drink.
As a result, she had never realized how low her alcohol tolerance was.
The reason Isabella knew about it was that as Ben grew older, he decided to write a memory book that contained many little secrets about Susan. In Ben's view, these little. secrets of Susan were all endearing, and he documented them as a way to show his love.
But in Isabella's opinion, all of this could be used! For instance, this time, she could leverage the fact that Susan couldn't drink, couldn't she? Susan was about to get drunk.
Isabella found Leo and whispered, “Can you do me a favor?” “What can | do for you?” Leo was still depressed.
“Don't belittle yourself. Of course, you can help,” Isabella said softly.
Her voice was full of encouragement, and Leo immediately perked up.
He looked at Isabella with a touched face. “Isabella, now you're the only one who believes me.” He reached out and wanted to grab Isabella's hand.
Isabella subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but when she thought that she still needed Leo's help, she held back and allowed Leo to hold her hand.
Leo couldn't help but feel his heart flutter when he saw Isabella so obedient.
“Isabella is indeed interested in me, isn't she?” he thought.
Before Leo could delve further into his thoughts, Isabella chimed in with a charming tone, 7 Chapter 103 “Leo, could you help me?” “Absolutely.” Leo nodded enthusiastically.
Isabella's voice became softer. “| want to talk to Your sister in law alone.Can you find a way to keep your brother from being with her?” With Ben around, she couldn't carry out her plan.
Leo suddenly sobered up. He hesitated and said, “I just fell out with him. I...” “Can't you help me with such a minor thing?” Isabella looked at him with disappointment in an instant.
Leo didn’t know what to say.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe patted his chest and said without hesitation, “Don’t worry, I'll take care of it for you.” “I'm counting on you.” Isabella looked at him with trust.
Leo readily agreed, but he was contemplating how to divert Ben's attention elsewhere.
It would be easy if they didn't fall out with each other.
He could just suggest to Ben that they have a chat in another spot.
But, they had just turned hostile...
Leo didn't initially want to go over, but when he thought of Isabella's pleading eyes, he made up his mind and walked over.
“Ben!” Leo looked at Ben and knelt down on the spot.
Ben glanced at him expressionlessly.
What was he trying to do? “I was wrong, Ben!” Leo said with a sad face, “It was all my fault. But Ben, | have my difficulties.” Ben silently observed his performance.
719 A 8/9 Chapter 103
Leo was a little flustered, but he still braced himself and said,Please give me a chance to explain it to you alone, Ben. | really have my reasons.” Leo emphasized the word “alone”.
Worried that Ben might not agree, he persisted, “If you don’t agree, I'll kneel here and won't stand up.” Ben was so infuriated that he chuckled. “Then kneel here.” Leo didn’t know what to say.
How was he going to salvage his pride? At this time, Susan said softly, “It's okay, Ben. Go talk to him. I'll wait here.” Ben frowned.
Susan smiled at him. “We'll always be together, people will laugh at us.” “Who dares to laugh at us?” Ben snorted and stood up.
He was deeply concerned about Susan's reputation at this moment. If Leo continued.kneeling here who knew what kind of gossip would circulate among others? It didn't matter how he was judged, but it would be rather unpleasant if Susan got dragged into it again.
Ben grabbed Leo, wanting to see what he was going to do.
Before they left, Susan smiled gently at Ben.
Afterward, she sat down docilely, nibbling on the pastries in her hand, appearing very compliant.
Susan didn't look like she was drunk at all.
But Isabella knew that Susan was indeed drunk.
Ben wrote down it very clearly.
This was exactly how she looked when Susan was drunk.
7 Chapter 103 She acted perfectly normal, and Ben didn’t notice it at first.
It wasn't until he realized that Susan would agree with whatever he said and appeared excessively well-behaved that he knew Susan was drunk.
Now, Ben wasn't with her.
And, Timothy and Susan were both drunk.
All set, just need the go-ahead.
