After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities novel Chapter 739

Chapter 739

Isabelle looked at him in surprise, as he earnestly sought her opinion. A strange thought crossed her mind - what if he waited for her to agree even if she refused? No man had ever respected her thoughts and opinions like this before. She felt a little overwhelmed and unsure of what to do.

This was the first time a handsome, wealthy man of high status had asked her so gently for her opinion. Her heart raced faster and faster with each passing moment, as waves of emotions surged through her.

For a long while, Isabelle didn't answer him. But Darius remained patient and gentle with his gaze fixed on hers. "If... you don't agree, it's okay to take your time," he said softly. "I can wait."

He really said that! He valued her thoughts so much that he was willing to wait! Isabelle had never experienced anything like this before; it felt wonderful - almost like a gentle spring breeze caressing her cheeks.

Her throat felt dry as she struggled to find the right words. Finally, after some hesitation, she spoke up, "I don't disagree."

As soon as she spoke those words, Isabelle's cheeks flushed hotly with embarrassment and shyness.

She lowered her head, her voice soft, "Bethany is studying in the association, and Miss Anto, along with a few other ladies, are her mentors. Miss Andrews said she wants to groom Bethany exceptionally well."

"You mean Sylvia?" Darius narrowed his eyes; he had heard that Sylvia was far from ordinary.

"Yeah, yeah," Isabelle's eyes lit up as soon as she mentioned Sylvia, and her admiration and fondness for Sylvia shone through so clearly that it couldn't be hidden.

Watching this, Darius felt a pang of jealousy, even though he knew Sylvia was a woman. If not, he would've been one hundred percent jealous because the moment she mentioned Sylvia, her whole face lit up.

"Miss Andrews really likes Bethany and has prepared excellent teachers for her. She has a lot of homework too," Isabelle spoke more when it came to her daughter.

Darius knew she had a shy personality, so he didn't interrupt her but listened attentively, his eyes showing a hint of gentle encouragement.

Isabelle blushed again. "I'm sorry if I've been talking too much..."

Darius smiled reassuringly at Isabelles' apology. "No need for apologies. I like listening," Darius said. "Is Bethany doing well in school?" At the time, he thought his daughter was only studying some school courses, with maybe a special talent or two.

But when he followed Isabelle to the association, he was amazed by what he saw. He had always considered himself worldly and experienced, but his eyes went wide at the sight of it all.

"Bethany is working really hard," Isabelle nodded. "Come on, I'll take you to her."

An hour later, they arrived at the entrance of Athena Society in a steady car.

After Isabelle got out of the car, Darius followed her into the building. There were several large buildings inside with gardens and ponds along with many facilities that surprised him.
