172 Devils in the Room

“Rosy, you are so beautiful today.”

“I didn’t know you were here. I should go and say hello to mom and dad first,” Isabella was the first to react and greeted Rosy with a smile.

As she spoke, she was about to leave.

Rosy suddenly stood up. “Isabella! Wait!”

Isabella was forced by Carl to come over today. She only greeted Rosy with a smile to look decent. Isabella did not want to have more contact with her.

But Rosy asked her to wait, and she had to wait.

“What is it?”

Rosy frowned as she looked at Isabella’s cheongsam. She then said angrily, “Isabella! Where did you get this dress?”

Isabella was stunned. “A... friend gave it to me.”

.....

“A friend?” Rosy snorted and grabbed Isabella by the collar. “Lukas bought this for me. Why are you wearing it?”

Isabella wore this dress only to pay her last tribute to her feelings for Lukas. She never expected that it might lead to a disaster. She used her quick wits and chuckled. “It turns out that Lukas also bought the same one for you. What a coincidence.”

“Coincidence? Why are there so many coincidences happening to you?”

Rosie’s friends, who were not easy to deal with, immediately gathered around and gabbled.

“After all, she is that Rosa’s daughter. Is it in her nature that she likes to fight over things that don’t belong to her?”

“Rosy and Lukas are already engaged. How dare she come here? I underestimated her in the past.”

“Rosy must be so mad at her. First, she took away Rosie’s father, and now she is trying to take Rosie’s husband.”

“You are so unreasonable!”

Jane couldn’t stand it anymore. She put her hands on her waist and said angrily, “The clothes are there in the mall. Everyone can buy them. Why can’t we?”

“It’s you, Jane. You are always so domineering. But today, you have no right to speak!”

“David and I bought this dress for Isabella. Do I have the right to speak now?” Jane retorted.

Rosie’s friends and Jane were in a heated argument, while Isabella was clenching her fists tightly and trying to suppress her anger.

She kept telling herself to calm down.

She could not make a scene today. Today was an “important” day. If anything happened because of her, the consequences would be unimaginable.

She would not let this happen.

“Alright, Jane.”

Isabella revealed a gentle smile, “Forget about it. Lend me the shawl in your car later. Since wearing this dress will cause Rosy to misunderstand, I will cover it up. Today is her big day, let’s not make her angry.”

As she spoke, she winked at Jane.

Jane knew what Isabella was worried about. She sighed wearily and took a step back, “Alright!”

“Rosy, please let go of me.” Isabella held Rosie’s wrist and smiled. “I will have to go downstairs to help mom and dad take care of the guests. If you tear my collar, I will disgrace the whole family.”

“Isabella, you cunning vixen!” Rosy narrowed her eyes in anger and said in a low voice, “But don’t think that I’m so easy to deal with!”

In that instant, Isabella saw a flash of sinister in Rosie’s eyes.

She cursed in her heart, but she did not have time to react.

“Don’t!”

The next moment, Rosy suddenly grabbed her hand and took two steps back, crashing into the dressing table.

Then, together with the screams of her friends, Carl said in a threatening voice, “Isabella, what are you doing?”

Isabella felt a chill run down her spine. She turned around and saw Carl and Lukas standing in front of him, followed by Jayden and Zachary...

And also Joseph.

“Isabella pushed Rosy!”

“How could she attack her own sister because of a tiny quarrel? Mr. Carl, you must teach Isabella a lesson!”

“That’s right. How can you do this on a red-letter day, Isabella?”

The people present today were all Rosie’s friends. Before Isabella could defend herself, she was accused of pushing Rosy on purpose.

Lukas was stunned and stepped forward to help Rosy. Carl’s eyes were filled with anger. “The distinguished gentlemen are here to greet you. Isabella, are you trying to disgrace me?”

Isabella pinched her palm out of fear. She knew what the consequences of embarrassing Carl in front of outsiders would be. She immediately explained, “Dad, it was just...”

“We were just playing around and fell by accident.”

Rosy stood up with the help of Lukas. She seemed to be enduring great pain. She frowned pitifully and seemed to be very generous. “Dad, don’t blame Isabella. My gown is too long so I tripped. It wasn’t a big deal. Come, gentlemen, please come in!”

Carl glared fiercely at Isabella, then turned his head and bowed. “Please come in!”

Jayden took the lead to enter the room. “Oh, Miss Rosy really has a gentle personality. No wonder she can win the national idol, Lukas’s heart.”

Zachary followed closely behind. “Two beautiful ladies! Mr. Carl, why are your daughters both so outstanding and beautiful?”

Joseph, on the other hand, did not say anything. He silently walked past Isabella and pretended not to know her. His eyes did not even blink.

Isabella let out a sigh of relief.

“Isabella, are you alright...” Lukas walked over and whispered, “Why don’t you go downstairs first? These men are playboys. Don’t stay here.”

“Okay.”

Isabella did not like to stay with Carl, so she nodded and turned to leave.

“Wait a minute!”

Zachary suddenly stood up and wrapped his arm around Isabella’s shoulder with a mischievous smile. He pouted and said, “Ms. Isabella, don’t leave. We didn’t have time to talk last time. I have always missed you.”

Isabella looked at Zachary’s hand on her shoulder and didn’t know what to do.

“Isabella has to go downstairs to help welcome the guests. Mr. Zachary, why don’t you talk to her next time?” Lukas smiled as he stopped Zachary to save Isabella.

“No, I want to talk to her now. I came upstairs for Isabella.”

Zachary did not hesitate to lower his hand and hug Isabella’s waist. “Isabella, you look like an angel today. Why don’t you stay with me for a while? We can...”

“Miss Isabella!”

“Zachary!”

“Mr. Zachary!”

Joseph, Jayden, and Lukas said simultaneously.

Everyone was stunned. Jayden smiled and said, “Well, it seems like we all have something to say. Joseph, you go first.”

Joseph took out a cigar and looked at Isabella. His movements were noble and elegant. “Do you know how to light a cigar?”

Isabella was confused. Looking at Joseph’s eyes, she hurriedly nodded. “I do.”

“Then come over and light it for me.”

Isabella immediately walked over obediently. Jayden smiled and said, “Mr. Lukas, it’s your turn.”
