No Remarriage for us Stay Away (Lenora and Zachary) novel Chapter 454

Chapter 454 Which One Is More Important
Seeing that he was unconvinced, Isla anxiously explained, “Fay used to work at Saleel Photography. She was in charge of my photo shoot back then. Unexpectedly, she stole my necklace during the shoot and was fired by the studio. If you don't believe me, go ask the boss of the studio!”

Zachary looked at her indifferently, saying nothing.

Isla continued, “The day I saw you at the restaurant, walking with Fay, I was taken aback. I know what kind of person Fay is. She's just using you for your money. Don't let her trick you!”

Obviously, Zachary didn't believe a single word of Isla's.

He was confident that no one understood Lenora better than he did.

Zachary chuckled lightly. “Is this what you call helping me? Do you even know that Fay once donated all of her assets to establish a charity foundation?”

When Isla saw that he was still protecting Lenora, her anxiety heightened. “Isn't everything she owns given to her by you and Old Mr. Fuller? It wasn't originally hers to begin with. Donating it to gain fame and to win your trust would be a great idea, wouldn't it? Comparing a mere charity foundation with being the wife of the Chairman of Fuller Group, which do you think is more important?”

Tamara had informed her about all the things that Fay had done.

Only then did Isla realize that Fay was not only resourceful, but her scheming mind was terrifyingly complex.

Nevertheless, it was hard to change one's perception.

In response, Zachary had no desire to argue with her any further. He issued a warning. “I am fully aware of her nature. I don't need you to do anything under the pretense of helping me. If you dare harm her, not even your uncle will be able to protect you!”

After he finished speaking, Zachary turned around and left.

Zachary was certain that Isla was unaware of his identity during their encounter on the flight to Sloummont.

It wasn't until their recent encounter in Fairlake that the latter discovered who he was. She also learned about his relationship with Lenora and subsequently appeared on the flight back home.

From what he knew, Isla hadn't returned to Jacaster for over a decade. Thus, the reason for her sudden return this time was self-evident.

What role is Tamara playing in all of this? When did she meet Isla? Could Isla's attitude toward Lenora have something to do with her?

Faced with Zachary's stubborn refusal to see reason, Isla stomped her foot in frustration.

Just you wait. One day, I'll expose Fay's true colors to you!

When she returned downstairs, Zachary was nowhere to be found in the living room. The only one present was Harrietta, who was sitting on the couch, engrossed in playing with an interlocking puzzle. Her little legs were swinging back and forth.

With a gentle smile on her face, Isla sat down next to Harrietta. “Hattie, would you like to watch a cartoon? Why don't I watch it with you?” she asked.

Harrietta looked up at her. “Ms. Isla, I don't enjoy watching cartoons. They're too childish for me.”

Isla was rendered speechless.

“So, what do you like to do? Do you enjoy solving interlocking puzzles?”

“Mm-hmm,” Harrietta responded, her head never lifting as she was completely engrossed in what he was doing.

“Come, let me take a look for you.”

Isla took the interlocking puzzle from Harrietta's hand, studying it carefully, flipping it over and over, and examining it from all angles.

This particular interlocking puzzle was somewhat difficult to crack.

Isla wanted to impress Harrietta, but despite racking her brain, she just couldn't figure out the puzzle.

“Ms. Isla, you're such a dork.”

Harrietta took the interlocking puzzle from Isla's hand. Somehow, with just a flick, she managed to unlock it. One by one, the wooden pieces fell onto her lap.

She then meticulously pieced it back together, one piece at a time.

She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt like Isla was trying to win her over.

Right then, Isla's face showed a hint of embarrassment.
