Dauntless God Of War novel Chapter 245

Isabella took a sip of the coffee that Marilyn had brewed for her and asked pensively, “Tell me, Marilyn. Do you think I should end my fake marriage with Harold?”

“What did you just ask me, Bella?” Marilyn was shocked.

In the past, Isabella would only treat Harold as a tool to escape the arranged marriages her family had for her.

At that moment, however, Marilyn could tell that Harold had held a place in her friend's heart.

“I said, I've already told Harold to meet me at City Hall next Monday so we can end our fake marriage, but I can't stop feeling a little depressed. What should I do?”

With a serious expression, Marilyn replied, “I can tell from what you're saying that you've fallen for Harold. Are you going to betray your God of War?”

The reason she structured her question like that was that she thought Harold wasn't a good man. Even though he says he loves Isabella and acts as though he does in front of her, I saw him meeting with another woman secretly when she was still at her grandmother's place. I'm so tempted to show her the photo I took at the Horington restaurant back then to let her see what kind of person he truly is.

“I...” Isabella was momentarily stunned by her friend's question. “How should I put this... True, the God of War is the man of my dream. However, that's all he is—an unreachable dream. How can someone like him fall in love with someone like me? Even if I do have a chance to meet with him one day, he's still a hero in the eyes of many. I can't possibly have him all to myself. Harold's different. When he risked his life to save me from that sea of fire back then, I thought he was a hero, one that only belonged to me. I truly believed that both of us would have died back then. I was terrified, but when I saw him, I suddenly calmed down. All the fear in my heart vanished in an instant. The only regret I have now is that I have disappointed my parents cause I couldn't fulfill my filial duties...”

Aside from recounting her near-death experience, she also told her friend about the romantic time she had spent with Harold when they were shopping at her grandmother's place.

Unbeknownst to her, as she continued to speak, a smile gradually formed on her face.

Listening to Isabella's tale made Marilyn jealous. They really live and die together, huh? Not many people will ever have the chance to experience a romantic brush with death.

After giving Isabella's conundrum some thought, Marilyn answered, “I think you should decide this for yourself.”

Isabella pondered for a while before throwing all her worries to the back of her mind. “Ugh, whatever. I don't want to think about it anymore. I still have a day to consider it. Anyway, I'll be staying at your place tonight. When I visited my granny, I learned a few dishes from her. You'll have the opportunity to taste my delicious cooking tonight.”

“Great! I was just wondering what to eat for dinner. Let's go out and buy the ingredients now!” Upon hearing that delicious food would be served today, Marilyn excitedly and promptly put on a disguise.

Isabella had to disguise herself as well before she was dragged out of the house by Marilyn.

That was because Isabella's current appearance was drawing too much attention.

Regardless of where she went, many men would glance at her in secret, giving her goosebumps.

When both of them returned to Marilyn's place after buying the ingredients, it was already past six in the evening.

While watching television, they prepared the dishes Isabella had learned from her grandmother.
