Chapter 2091
Rnd smiled warmly. "Sure."Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.
He carried her and strode toward their bed.
In Westchester, after the call with Jerome, Isabe went to the lobby on the first floor of Westchester Hotel.
She went to the lounge area of the lobby.
There were not many people in the lounge at this hour.
She had arrived at the hotel at roughly ten that night, and it was already one in the morning by this point. She had been waiting
for rice for three whole hours, yet there was no sign of her at all.
Her butt was already sore from sitting and waiting for so long. She began to feel like rice was intentionally keeping her
waiting, but she knew better than to text rice to ask for her whereabouts. Her only choice was to wait with constant agitation.
Finally, when it was around half past one, rice stepped through the entrance of the hotel atst.
Isabe hurriedly approached her while putting on her best smile. She greeted rice in a friendly voice as if she was not
bothered by the extended wait.
“Hey, Miss Houston."
rice barely looked in her direction before she nted herself on the nearest chair.
Isabe was too nervous to sit with rice, so she stood stiffly like an attendant and asked courteously, "Do you want something
to drink?"
There was a drink station at the edge of the lounge.
ricepletely ignored her. After sitting down, she neatly tucked at the cor of her shirt before asking quite sharply,
"Isabe, are you trying to mess with me right now?"
Isabe was thrown off by this, "Has there been some kind of misunderstanding? When have | ever messed with you?"
rice red at her viciously. "The video you sent me was edited."
"Miss Houston, | admit | did cut out some parts, but that was because those were the irrelevant parts of Isabel talking to other
people. | only included the important parts of her being in the same frame with Mr. Rockwell."
She was reciting the responses she had thought out ahead of time after receiving the tip from Jerome.
This was what gave her the courage to confront rice''s sharp stare into her eyes, all while wearing an honest, sincere
expression on her face.
rice narrowed her eyes suspiciously. "Did you cut those parts out intentionally?"
"Of course not."
"What did the parts you left out contain?"
"It was her with another man. | heard from a friend of mine who works on the ''Legend of Goddess'' film crew that that man is
Isabel''s boyfriend.’
rice''s expression sharpened again. "You knew that Isabel has a boyfriend?"
"Yes."
"Then, why didn''t you tell me right away?" If she had known about this, she would not have been humiliated by that vulgar
woman, Isabel!
Isabe exined frantically, "Miss Houston, please don''t get the wrong idea. It''smon for some of us actors to keep our
dating life private so that it won''t affect our rtionship with our external benefactors."
rice seemed to process this information for a moment before interrogating her with further questions, "So, you''re saying that
Decker has been Isabel''s benefactor this entire time?"
Considering how Isabel had properly rified the situation with rice, Isabe knew better than to nder Isabel unnecessarily.
She opted for an objective approach. "! don’t know the nature of their rtionship. All | know is that Mr. Rockwell seems to have
taken a liking to Isabel. He''s one of the investors of Legend of the Goddess’."
rice remarked crossly, "Are you telling me that Decker has been pursuing Isabel but his feelings are not reciprocated by her?"
Isabe hurriedly rified, "No, no, | never said that. | honestly don’t know a thing about the specific nature of their rtionship."
rice grunted.
Another thought came to her, and she asked, "Do you still have the part of the video that you left out?"
She wanted to see for herself what this boyfriend of Isabel''s looked like. What kind of person was her boyfriend to lend her the
confidence to outright dere that Decker was garbage as far as she was concerned?
"Ido."
She reached for her phone as she said this and promptly showed rice the referred footage of Isabel with Rnd.
rice only had to take one nce at the footage before gasping in stark surprise. "Rnd!"
Isabe was just as startled by her immediate recognition of the man in the frame. She asked curiously, "Do you know her
boyfriend?"
