Chapter 2128
Isabel made a face, and her enthusiasm immediately drooped.
Southboro.
That was where she had her first adult relationship, which ended rather disastrously.
Her second partner Roland, who ended up dumping her, was now in Southboro as well.
The sheer mention of the city jogged sour memories for her.
She was silent.
Amanda noticed how she had suddenly turned quiet as well. After a momentary pause, she said in a low voice, "The
jewelry exhibition is scheduled for half a month later. It's organized by one of the largest jewelry manufacturers in
Southboro. They seemed very interested in having you attend and offered pretty good compensation for your time.
Why don't you think about it?"
This jewelry exhibition was the first endorsement offer she had received since what had happened with Clarice.
Then again, the Southboro was the base camp of the Houstons and the Rockwells, so what was the likelihood that
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthis organization hadn't heard about her involvement with Clarice? Why would they approach her?
She was in no mood to trouble herself over these matters
right now and told Amanda, "Let me think about it."
She was hesitant to go at all. She would much rather not step foot in Southboro again for the rest of her life.
Still, she still had to consider things from Amanda's perspective, then there was also her team who had been
faithfully working for her all this time.
Amanda was very understanding. "Alright, you can think about it. It's fine if you don't want to go."
"Yeah, I’ll let you know after I think about it."
"Sure."
With that, Amanda hung up and Isabel collapsed in her bed again.
A very famous TV show was projected on the screen.
There were also piles of snacks and drinks set on the table in front of her.
As lavish as it seemed, she was beginning to feel like she was getting sick and tired of living like this. She was
burned out and was in no mood to eat anything or watch the show at all.
After laying on the bed motionlessly for a while, staring at the ceiling with blankness in her eyes, she reached for
her phone and opened her feed.
She was swarmed by a flux of media and news. She read updates about a certain streamer whose views had
recently tanked significantly, then there were some articles about the recent trending TV shows.
She had also received countless direct messages from her fans who were concerned about her because she had
not made any new posts recently.
It was only then did she realize that she had not posted anything at all since her break up with Roland.
Since she had no active brand endorsements or any other contractual obligations to speak of, she had no incentive
to make any posts at all.
To ease the concerns of her restless fans, she picked out a collage of nine pictures taken a while ago and posted
them.
She attached a short caption with the post: "I'm doing fine, my loves. Don’t worry about me."
Her fans immediately swarmed to the post to leave comments because they knew that Isabel had posted the
update forthem.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe messages they left were all very heartwarming. There were too many messages for Isabel to sift through them
all, thus she had no choice but to reply to them selectively.
Without realizing it, she interacted with her fans until it was already nighttime.
"Uuu..." She heard the soft gurgle of a toddler outside her room.
That could only be Flint carrying their nephew in his arms. He was probably here to tell her to join them for dinner.
The toddler's voice was so cute that she immediately dropped everything on hand and launched out of bed to join
them.
Over the next few days, Isabel spent her time in between a handful of activities such as sleeping, playing with her
nephew, or lying in bed and interacting with her fans on the phone.
At first, her fans were delighted to get to spend so much time with her.
After a few days, even they had had enough of it, and they began asking Isabel if she did not have anything else
going on. They were curious why she had so much time on the phone to chat with them instead of having to work.
Isabel did not know how to respond to this. After deliberating over it for a while, she came up with a vague
explanation. "I’ve just been a little overworked lately, so I decided to rest at home for several days."
Her fans seemed very understanding and told her to make sure to get ample rest.
