From Discarded Wife to Queen (Tyrone) novel Chapter 18

Reborn: The Unwanted Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 18

Isabella called a taxi and she went to the hospital.

In the lobby on the first floor, she ran into Tobias unexpectedly.

She ignored him and walked right past him.

But Tobias couldn’t pretend he hadn’t noticed Isabella.

In this huge hospital, Isabella’s cheap red wig was simply eye-

catching, and her alternative appearance gave off an air that clashed

with everything about this hospital.

When Isabella didn’t take the initiative to greet him, Tobias had no

choice but to stop and call out to her and said, “Isabella.”

Isabella turned around and looked at him with confusion in her eyes,

which were surrounded by smoky makeup.

Tobias took a deep breath and said, “How long are you planning to

keep up this rebellious act?”

Isabella’s mouth, painted with purple lipstick, curved into what seemed like a puzzled expression. “?”

She had not provoked Tobias.

Knowing he was a germaphobe who disliked her, Isabella had paid for

a taxi herself instead of relying on Tobias.

Knowing he disliked her getting close, she would take a detour

whenever she saw him.

Tobias frowned and said, “What happened with Bianca was your fault

to begin with. Mom only made you kneel as punishment, and you’re

so unwilling. What exactly do you want?”

Isabella had begun breaking the rules after this incident.

He could only assume she was resentful about how the matter had

been handled.

But it had been her fault in the first place–what right did she have to

feel resentful?

Isabella hadn’t wanted to bring it up again, but since Tobias

mentioned it, she could only sneer.“I was the one wrongly accused, 1

was the one punished. Did I say anything? Didn’t I accept it all?” Now

you’re asking me what I want? Is it you guys who want something, or

me?”

She found it strange–hadn’t she suffered enough injustice already?

Being scolded and punished wasn’t enough. What more did Tobias

want from her? Did she need to kneel before Bianca every day to show

her repentance?

Tobias’s expression darkened. He stared at her and said, “Looks like

you still don’t know what you did wrong!”

“Still saying you were wrongly accused.”

“Completely unrepentant.”

“I just didn’t do it.” Isabella met his gaze and shouted, “I didn’t push

her!”

“There’s no one else but you!”

Isabella looked at his self–righteous, ugly face, the hatred in her eyes

deepened.

She clenched her fists and loudly voiced the suspicion she had never dared to speak aloud. “You just want to destroy the evidence so you can frame me. Stop pretending!”

“Tobias, you and Bianca are in this together. You deliberately

Chapter 18

wouldn’t let me see the surveillance footage because you have a

guilty conscience!”

Isabella said with disgust, “You are deliberately framing me!”

In her past life, she had never considered that Tobias’s refusal to let

her see the surveillance footage might not have been only because he

was convinced it was her. More likely, he had already watched the

footage but had deliberately wanted to pin it on her, suppressing her

to strengthen Bianca’s position in the family, which was why he

wouldn’t allow her to verify it.

People bound by blood could kill her–what couldn’t they do?

Isabella felt their cruelty might run even deeper than she had

imagined.

Isabella’s barrage of accusations and questions caught Tobias

completely off guard.

He frowned in disbelief. “What did you say?”

He destroyed the evidence?

Did he have a guilty conscience?

Did he frame her?

What kind of talk was this? She was even turning the tables-

claiming he and Bianca were working together and that he had

deliberately slandered her?

But Isabella couldn’t waste any more words on Tobias. She turned and

walked away.

After what she had said, how could Tobias let her leave?

“Isabella, stop right there and explain yourself.”

Isabella didn’t look back, and her pace quickened.

Seeing her completely ignore him, Tobias’s face flushed with anger

and embarrassment. “I’m talking to you. What kind of attitude is

this? Isabella, where are your manners?”

Only then did Isabella stop and look back.

“You ate all my manners! So now I don’t have any.”

Tobias’s fury flared.

The commotion had grown loud enough that many people were

casting strange looks in their direction

But Tobias had already lost his rationality to anger over what Isabella

had said and no longer cared about the surrounding gazes.

“Stop!”

He walked over quickly and reached to grab Isabella’s hand.

“Don’t touch me!”

The moment his fingertips touched hers, Isabella frowned deeply. The

resistance in her heart made her reflexively push Tobias away.

Tobias fell to the ground.

He fell hard.

Tobias clutched his painful knee, his face scrunched in pain.

He struggled to push himself up from the floor.

As if afraid he would get up and cause her trouble, Isabella quickly

and ruthlessly kicked Tobias’s knee.

Chapter 18

Tobias’s already painful wound felt like it was about to split open.

But worse than the wound was Tobias’s heart.

If Isabella’s earlier push might have been accidental, this one was

unmistakably deliberate.

Isabella had actually kicked Tobias with all her might!

Isabella had actually kicked Tobias with all her might!

“Tobias, you…” he raised a hand to point at Isabella, his lips

trembling with anger.

Isabella angrily threw what she was holding at Tobias’s face, then

turned and ran.

Tobias hadn’t even seen what Isabella had thrown at him.

When the object hit Tobias’s face and fell into his palm, he looked

and saw it was a piece of bread.

The bread still had a ring of teeth marks on it, clearly bitten by

Isabella before she threw it at Tobias.

Tobias nearly fainted from holding his breath.

“Dr. Taylor…”

Several nurses saw Tobias sitting on the ground in such a sorry state

and kindly ran over to help him. “What happened? Do you need

help?”

“No need,” Tobias said coldly.

He stood up on his own, trying hard to control the anger in his heart.

“I’m fine.”

“Dr. Taylor, that girl just now… should we call the police for you?”

“No need.”

Afraid they would meddle, he pretended nothing had happened and

said, “It’s not a big deal, just a misunderstanding. Don’t call the

police. I know her. We’ll handle our own issues privately. You don’t

need to worry about it.”

“Okay, understood.”

Watching the people disperse, Tobias turned away, his previously

unconcerned expression shifting to one of visible anger.

Being unrepentant was one thing, but now she was even twisting the

facts–claiming that Tobias and Bianca had teamed up to frame her.

Thinking about it, Tobias actually laughed in anger.

Despite not having much education, her sharp little mouth was

surprisingly good at talking.

Tobias walked into his office and looked at his assistant Aiden. “Tell

security that after work at six, I want to review the surveillance

footage from August 23rd.”

Aiden was puzzled and asked, “Why do you want to see that, Tobias?”

Tobias clenched his fists.

Tobias squeezed the bread until it was nearly deformed, then forced

his usual expression when facing Aiden and said, “Nothing–just

taking a look.”
