Chapter 2195
A stiff silence hung over them.
Then, Isabel poked Odell's arm. "Dad, don't be angry."
Odell made a face and ignored her.
Isabel poked at Sylvia this time.
While Sylvia took a deep breath, she could relate to how Odell was feeling. Even now, she was rather upset about the things she read online, and what people were saying about her dear daughter.
"Isabel, your father and I have talked about this and decided that we are fine with you continuing your career as an actress, but only on the condition that you cannot keep hiding the fact that you are our daughter. If you are not okay with that, you'll have to come home and take over the family businesses instead." Sylvia's tone was stout.
Isabel was slightly troubled to hear this.
Still, she understood that they were deeply bothered by what people were saying online about her.
After a while, she answered, "Alright, I understand."
They sat in silence together for a while again until Liam, who was in the middle row, turned around and informed them," Mom, Dad, I just got a text from the lawyer. He says that he just put up the official letter online."

Sylvia shared a sigh of relief. 'This should all be over tonight. If
Isabel was puzzled by this. "What lawyer's letter are you talking about?"
Sylvia smiled and bopped her nose playfully. "Check it out yourself."
Isabel promptly reached for her phone and went to check her social feed.
The number one item on the trending bar read: "The Carters' official letter", followed closely by: "Isabel Ross is a Carter."
She clicked on the first post which redirected her to Carter Corporation's official blog. The post was a picture of a letter drawn up by a lawyer. The entire format and phrasing were very formal, but it was specifically stated that it was written to represent her.
