Isabella was stunned.
From Luke's words, Isabella got to know that when Luke was on a business trip, Rachel saw her mother bring other men home. She was mentally hurt by that and was unwilling to talk since then. This was exactly why Luke had insisted on custody of Rachel.
After knowing the whole story, Isabella felt heartbreak for Rachel.
Isabella was not busy during this period, so she told Luke that she would Rachel to her company and teach her reading when she was free. Luke could pick her up at night.
Rachel was a little timid and shy at the very beginning, but after being praised several times by Isabella, she became bold and also started to smiled at others. She also had a beautiful handwriting. Seeing the “daddy” she wrote, Luke was too moved to say a word.
Today after she brought Rachel to the company, her colleagues reminded her that they should go to Leeds City for the negotiation.
However, half an hour ago, Luke had gone overseas for a business trip. She had no idea when he would return, and felt it inappropriate to leave Rachel for her colleague, so she took her along to Leeds City.
Leeds wasn’t far from Brighton. It only took them one and a half hours by plane to get there.
The Polygon Group had asked someone to pick Isabella up and directly drove to the company.
"Isabella, Mr. Miller's flight was delayed, and we aren’t sure when it will arrive. If doesn’t this afternoon, you may have to stay in the hotel for one night."
"Okay." Isabella smiled.
As a giant investment Group, its office building was located in CBD, while other buildings surrounding it seemed to looked dejected without any color.
The person who brought Isabella here answered a phone call, which seemed to be an urgent matter. Then he entrusted her to receptionist at front desk and then left in a hurry.
Holding Rachel’s hand, Isabella entered the elevator.
