Upon discovering the truth, Isabella felt really down.

After all, Isabella was in a position where she couldn’t initiate a divorce. The only way out would have been if Alexander had proposed it himself. However, given Alexander’s responsible nature, even if he no longer felt any love toward Isabella, he would never be the one to suggest it. 

Isabella’s only hope was to wait for Alexander and Eleanor to rekindle an old flame because only then could she be free.. 

Initially, she thought that with Eleanor’s return, she could finally embark on a new journey. However, it turned out to be far from the truth. 

Eleanor was, unfortunately, not a good person. 

As such, Isabella couldn’t bear to help Eleanor reconcile with Alexander. After all, Alexander and his family had treated her really well, so she couldn’t do something so heartless. 

Her only option was to swallow her frustration. 

Hence, when everyone was taken aback by Lily’s words, Alexander was still sulking in his own world. Meanwhile, Isabella’s gaze toward Eleanor grew increasingly resentful. 

Eleanor smirked in her mind. I knew once that reason was revealed, Eleanor would be trembling in fear. 

Then, she hung her head low, her expression a mix of embarrassment and discomfort. It was as if she was silently declaring that she had never intended to play the sympathy card and didn’t want everyone to know about the hardships she had faced in the past. 

“What’s going on?” 

kind of ill. 

“She was sick? What kind of illness was it?” 

“Have you been recuperating these past few years? No wonder I haven’t heard from you.” 

“How are you doing now? Has your health improved?” 

“Why didn’t you explain things clearly back then? 

They were indeed friends who had known each other for many years. When Eleanor left back then, her sorrowful demeanor made them all believe that she must have had her reasons. However, she didn’t confide in anyone, leaving everyone anxious. In the end, they could only watch as she departed. Gradually. news of her stopped reaching them. Thus, even Audrey was shocked to learn the truth. 

Perhaps no one expected that Eleanor, someone from a prominent family, would spin such a lie, so everyone believed her without any skepticism. 

Meanwhile, Isabella almost laughed from anger. If you were genuinely struck with a severe illness, that would’ve been great! Her stay at the sanitarium was nothing more than an attempt to curry favor by taking care of the aristocrat’s family’s elders. Lily is such a gullible fool, believing whatever Eleanor says and even defending her. Oh, I get it now. Eleanor’s putting on a show for Alexander, hoping he’ll feel regretful and sorry for her. Yeah, sure, keep acting! No one can outperform you! When she left all those years ago, she put on that act in front of everyone to give herself a way out. Since that sanatorium catered exclusively to aristocrats, they would never disclose any information

gossip hadn’t ruined my plans. I’d be enjoying it. Now, all I tant is to vent!

Then, Isabella observed the reactions of those around her and was speechless when she realized they were all fooled by Eleanor. 

Suddenly, she paused, stealing a glance at Alexander. She noticed he was eating with a frown, showing no intention of joining the group conversation or any sign of what he was thinking. Due to her illness, the ex- girlfriend had no choice but to break up with her boyfriend because she didn’t want to see him upset. Following that, she distanced herself, seeking treatment. Now that she’s recovered, she returns only to find out he’s already married and can only exchange silent glances with him. Hmm… Alexander doesn’t know the truth, he’ll definitely be fooled! 

When Alexander heard Isabella’s thoughts, his eyes sparkled. She cares about me! Maybe she’ll do something to prevent me from being deceived. 

The mere thought of that possibility suddenly made Alexander’s heart race a bit faster. 

Unfortunately, Isabella’s next thoughts shattered his hope. Then, out of sympathy. I will want to warn Alexander about Eleanor, who isn’t as good as she seemed. However, since all my information comes from the system, I can’t explain everything clearly. In the end, I’d only be suspected of sowing discord. After all, Eleanor’s image as a tragic heroine was already established. Eventually, they would end up together happily, and I’d be left in the dust as at cannon fodder. Heck, I might not even get an alimony, and I’d be despised by everyone. D*mn, this is just too cliché 

Alexander was confused. How on earth did your train of thought arrive there? 

Isabella’s thoughts continue, Sorry, Alexander, but I’d rather others get the trouble than myself. At most, I won’t help an evildoer. If you fall for the wrong person. It just means it’s your destiny to face this disaster. I can’t help you; I’m just a bystander enjoying gossip 

The edge of Alexander’s eye twitched. You are my greatest disaster! 

Isabella felt she had finally navigated through that tricky situation. All she could do was sit back and wait for events to unfold, as that was her only means of self–preservation. 

However, Alexander was already on the verge of acting recklessly in anger. If he weren’t uncertain about whether revealing Isabella’s mind–reading ability would cause irreparable harm to her, he would have really liked to come clean once and for all. 

The crowd suddenly sensed a shift in the atmosphere and thought Alexander seemed to be emanating a chilling vibe. 

They were taken aback because, in all the years they knew Alexander, his emotions had always been. relatively stable. 

Additionally, due to his composed nature, he was rarely upset by people or events. Yet, at that moment, even they could see the emotional turmoil Alexander was experiencing, which they assumed was due to the reveal of the true reason behind Eleanor’s breakup. 

A few people there cast a sympathetic glance at Isabella, If Eleanor had no choice but to leave back then. and if Alexander was so affected by the truth, then his marriage with Isabella might not last. 

Just as they were all thinking about the matter, they saw Alexander gloomily snapping his sight toward 

Isabella. 

While Alexander was sad that Isabella didn’t seem to care about him, the others were thinking about something else.
