From Discarded Wife to Queen (Tyrone) novel Chapter 20

Chapter 20

Three pairs of eyes were all staring at her, so Isabella had no choice

but to sit down.

Atticus opened both takeout bags, took out the food containers

inside, and arranged them one by one. “Isabella, just eat without

worry. These are all the restaurant’s signature dishes; they taste

really good.”

As soon as the lids were lifted, the aroma of the food immediately

filled the air.

“Smells so good,” Isabella couldn’t help saying.

Her eyes lit up as she looked over each dish in front of her, like a

hungry kitten eyeing a bowl of milk.

Since she couldn’t refuse, she might as well enjoy it.

Isabella had just picked up the utensils beside her and was about to

unwrap them when William handed her utensils he’d already taken

out. “Use these.”

What!

Seeing this scene, Atticus was shocked once again.

What did he just see?

The The usually cold Williams, who never bothered with unnecessary

She had only turned her head slightly, and her nose was barely two

centimeters from William’s chin.

What was worse, at the same moment, William also tilted his head to

look at her.

Their eyes met.

A flash of panic instantly crossed William’s eyes, like an undercurrent

stirring beneath his usually calm gaze.

He knew Isabella was already trying hard to hide her charm, dressing herself up this way, but he was still like someone under a curse – just being a little closer to her, just looking into her eyes…

It aroused desire in him.

William quickly withdrew his gaze before he could lose his composure, pretending nothing had happened as he picked up food from the container in front of him. His voice maintained its usual

Atticus couldn’t sit still. He pulled out his phone and sent Sophia a

message under the table.

[What’s the relationship between William and Isabella?]

He was even letting Isabella call him by his first name.

This Isabella must be something special.

Sophia saw a message pop up on her phone; It was from Atticus, who

was sitting next to her.

She looked at Atticus strangely, and under his insistent gaze,

reluctantly opened the message.

After reading it, Sophia thought for a moment and typed: Before
