Chapter 2175
He had a good character and temper. If Isabel lived with him in the future, he would not hurt her even if they had a
large conflict.
Sylvia thought about it and asked, "Isabel, have you met his mother before?"
She heard that his mother was his only kin left.
Isabel said honestly, "I've met her many times. She's very gentle and is a good cook. She often cooks food for me."
Sylvia smiled. "I’m sure his father was quite good too."
"Yes, he used to be very happy, but after his grandfather and father passed..."
"Mm, I’ve heard."
Isabel fell silent.
In Southboro.
The continuous rain cast a shadow over the Rockwell residence.
Decker was in his room.

looked out at the rain that was pelting the ground.
Clarice pushed the door open and walked in barefooted.
She had also just finished her shower and wore a pink silk nightgown with spaghetti straps and a low neckline,
showing off her fairly satisfactory figure.
She walked to Decker and hugged him from behind." Decker, it's getting late. We should get to bed."
As she spoke, she brushed a hand across his chest.
Decker frowned. His already gloomy face suddenly became annoyed.
However, he quickly suppressed that irritability.
He turned around, hugged Clarice, lifted her chin, and kissed her on the lips.
"Clarice, I remembered I still have something to talk to Dad about. You go to bed first. Don’t wait up for me."
Then, he pushed Clarice away and walked past her out of the bedroom.
Clarice stood where she was, frowning unhappily as she watched him go straight out.
She could not remember the last time she got intimate with him anymore.
Ever since Decker returned to Southboro, he had been busy going up against Roland. Even being intimate with her
once a week would be considered a lot.
After Roland took half his shares and replaced him as the president of Rockwell Corporation, he had not touched
her a single time.
Was it because he had no desire in that aspect because of his bad mood?
Clarice stomped her foot unhappily.
She was the lady of the Houston family. She already tried to seduce him twice and failed. She could not lower
herself to try to seduce him in a more blatant manner.
Scoffing, she picked up her coat and went out.
Meanwhile, Decker wanted to go out for some air, but as he was walking out of the building, he saw that Master
Rockwell’s building was still lit.
It seemed that his study light was still on.
Was Master Rockwell not asleep yet?
Decker was suspicious and immediately went to the study.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter knocking on the door and entering, he saw the old man sitting on the sofa in his coat, smoking.
Master Rockwell seemed to be deep in thought, and his expression looked slightly better compared to the past few
days.
Did he think of a way to deal with Rockwell Corporation?
Decker went up to him and asked, "Dad, why aren't you asleep yet?"
Master Rockwell exhaled smoke and looked at Decker. "Sit.
I have something to tell you."
Decker's expression lit up as he immediately went to sit.
Master Rockwell continued, "Today, someone saw Roland and that girlfriend of his in the airport. Do you know
where they went?"
Decker thought about it and said, "He should be going to Westchester City with Isabel."
Master Decker asked warily, "What is he doing in Westchester?"
"Isabel is going there to film a variety show. Roland must be accompanying her."
"It seems Roland really likes that girl." Master Rockwell exhaled another mouthful of smoke. Then, he noticed
something strange and looked at Decker sharply. "How did you know his girlfriend will be filming in Westchester
City? Do you know his girlfriend very well?"
