Chapter 660 Can’t keep Her
“I have something else to do so I won’t accompany you.” Isabella glared and lazily said, “Oh, I just remembered
something. Do you have Scarlet’s video? Should I send you a copy?”
As soon as Cecilia heard this, her face turned pale!
That was something from a long time ago when Scarlet secretly unscrewed the cap of cooking oil, intending to
make Isabella slip and fall. But it backfired, causing harm to herself…
Isabella had kept that piece of evidence!
How could she have forgotten about it!!
Realizing that Lisa was still present, Cecilia quickly put on a smile. “Since Isabella has something else to attend to, I
won’t disturb you. We can talk about everything once Isabella is free…”
Isabella raised an eyebrow with a victorious sparkle in her eyes. “Lisa, I’ll be on my way.”
Lisa could sense the tension between them and stood up. “I’ll walk you out.”
“Lisa, I made some afternoon tea for you…” Cecilia looked a bit reluctant as she watched Lisa getting up. She was
also a bit resentful. Did Lisa have to accompany Isabella for this short distance? How delicate was Isabella?!
Lisa followed Isabella out of the office and quietly asked, “What does Scarlet’s video mean? Did something happen.

clothing company tonight.”
“Isa…” Lisa vaguely sensed that Isabella was hiding something from him, and Scarlet seemed to be at fault in this
matter.
Otherwise, Cecilia wouldn’t have shown that expression just
now…
“Take care.”
As the elevator doors closed, Isabella left, and Lisa immediately said, “Isa, did Scarlet bully you?”
Isabella noticed that Lisa wouldn’t give up until she got an explanation, so she raised her gaze and said, “It’s not
exactly bullying. Scarlet was trying to be clever, but her cleverness backfired. It’s nothing.”
Lisa had a rough idea of what had happened as the elevator doors closed. Scarlet seemed to want to do something
but shot herself in the foot…
It appeared that this servant had ulterior motives. He couldn’t be kept around.
When Lisa returned to her office, she saw Cecilia, her hands wrapped in bandages, clumsily opening a lunchbox and
displaying the exquisite pastries inside.
“Lisa, you’re back? Try the pastries I made. Are they
delicious?” Cecilia smiled and said, “I made these before I got injured today… I saved some for my parents and
Mathew
too…”
Sitting on the couch, Lisa looked at Cecilia, who used to be kind and innocent, now showing open and pure eyes.
She seemed both the same and different from before.
“You made all of these?” Lisa asked, looking at the twenty to thirty delicate pastries before her.
“Yes, the chef taught me!” Cecilia looked at her expectantly. “Please try them.”
“You haven’t recovered from your cold yet, so you should rest.” Lisa picked up a croissant and took a bite. “Not
bad.”
Although they couldn’t compare to a professional chef, it was already impressive for Cecilia to achieve this level on
her first attempt.
“Really?” Cecilia became even happier. She picked up a croissant for herself, but her exaggerated movement
pulled at her chin wound, and her expression suddenly turned painful.
“You still haven’t told me how you got all these injuries.” Lisa suddenly asked.
Cecilia’s actions stiffened for a moment. She thought Lisa had already learned from the maid that she got injured
while chasing after Isabella to apologize. Now he was deliberately asking again. Indeed Lisa wanted to see if she
would take the opportunity to speak ill of Isabella…
But she wouldn’t fall for it!
So she put on an incredible and sensible appearance and softly said, “I just fell accidentally.”
She didn’t mention anything about Isabella.
“You fell for no reason?” Lisa asked again.
“Yeah, I was walking too fast and fell…” Cecilia quickly changed the topic and picked up an exquisitely designed

four-grid lunchbox, handing it to Lisa. “Lisa, try these. They’re macarons. How do they look?”
“They look nice, well done.” Lisa gave a positive answer and took a bite. “They taste good too.”
“With your praise, I’ll strive to do even better next time!” Cecilia smiled, her smile exceptionally pure and beautiful.
“Next time, I’ll make even more delicious treats for you, Lisa. There’s juice over here too…”
As Lisa ate, Cecilia suddenly sighed, “Lisa, it feels so good to sit here with you and have afternoon tea. We haven’t
had a good chat like this in a long time… Thank you for treating me like a babe all these years…”
Lisa raised her gaze. “Then tell me, what’s the deal with Scarlet’s video?”
This question caught Cecilia off guard, and she felt a bit guilty. “What do you mean, Lisa? I don’t know what you’re
talking about…”
“I can tell that Scarlet has something on Isa, so tell me the truth. If the situation isn’t serious, I can handle it
accordingly.”
Cecilia didn’t believe that Lisa would handle it leniently. She had only said a few bad things about Isabella before her
friends, but Lisa punished her severely, even deducting Scarlet’s salary and year-end bonus…
If Lisa discovered Scarlet had been trying poured oil into the

floor, making Isabella slip and fall…
Scarlet’s fate wouldn’t be pleasant at all!
“Lisa, you’ve misunderstood. It’s just a trivial video. Isabella just asked if I had saved it…” Cecilia was convinced in
her heart. With Isabella’s personality, she wouldn’t spread rumours behind her back.
Lisa remained silent and then looked at the girl before him. “Cecilia, has Scarlet been teaching you many things
recently?”
