Never Again Yours (Isadora and Magnus) novel Chapter 376

Belinda actually breathed a sigh of relief.

She'd been dreading the possibility that Isadora's baby was Preston's. That would've made Isadora the villain, the homewrecker everyone loved to hate. No matter how clever her excuses, there'd be no way to talk her way out of that one.

"Since it's not Preston's, that makes things easier. The best way to handle this crisis is to call a press conference, announce the engagement publicly, and have the child's father make a statement."

Belinda glanced at Isadora. "President Vaughan, will your boyfriend go along with it?"

Isadora fell silent, thinking it over for a long moment.

"Go ahead and make arrangements for the press conference," she said at last. "I'll take care of the rest."

As soon as Belinda left the office, Isadora stood up and sank wearily onto the sofa. She clutched her phone, debating whether or not to call Victor.

She was just about to dial when her phone rang first—Terrell was calling.

Isadora answered. "Mr. Fawcett."

Terrell's gentle voice came through the line. "Isadora, I saw the rumors online. Is there anything I can do to help?"

She blinked, forcing herself to sound steady. "I can handle it."

Terrell persisted, "I was at the hotel that night too. I can testify about that photo."

Isadora stayed quiet. Terrell really would make a strong witness. But ever since she'd realized how he felt about her, she was reluctant to get him more involved.

He continued, "Don't shut me out, Isadora. Let me help, even just a little. Besides, aren't we friends?"

She hesitated, then nodded to herself. "Alright, Mr. Fawcett. Could you check if the hotel's security cameras still have footage from that night? I know there's a good chance it's already been wiped, but…"

"Of course. Leave it to me."

Just as Isadora was about to hang up, Terrell's voice stopped her. "Isadora?"

"Yes?"

His words were soft, reassuring. "I know this is a huge blow for The Vaughan Group. No matter what happens, if you need anything, just ask. I'll be there."
