Reborn: The Unwanted Heiress's Revenge (Isabella) novel Chapter 12

Ten minutes later.

Tobias tossed his empty lunch box into the trash.

Isabella still hadn’t brought him his meal.

He sat quietly for a few seconds before standing up.

Even though he wasn’t fond of Isabella, her sudden disappearance

while she was bringing him food was something he couldn’t ignore.

He had considered texting her, but he’d never initiated contact with

Isabella before.

Tobias headed to the hospital lobby.

He spotted Isabella right away.

She was sitting in a corner, legs crossed, drinking from a large bottle

of water. After finishing, she looked around and rubbed her stomach,

appearing quite content.

Seeing her so relaxed, Tobias felt a surge of anger.

Chapter 12

Didn’t she care that he might be hungry? She’s just wasting time.

here.

He watched her from a distance and called out coldly, “Isabella!”

She must have heard him because she looked in his direction.

They locked eyes for a moment before Tobias began walking towards

her.

But before he could reach her, Isabella stood up, wiped her mouth,

and walked away.

Tobias froze, stunned.

She just left?

Wasn’t she supposed to bring him food?

“Hey Gabriel, check out this dress. It would look great on

Isabella.Should we get it for her? Bianca asked, pointing at a white dress in a store window as they walked by.

Gabriel glanced at the dress. “Nah.”

Chapter 12

He frowned, his expression hardening.“Why should we buy her

anything?”

Bianca pouted, her lips jutting out in protest. “But I bought so many

clothes, and Isabella didn’t get anything. She might feel left out.”

“Why do you care? She didn’t want to come with us,” Gabriel said, his

face stern.

Isabella had refused to go shopping with him and left as soon as they

got out of the car.

With that attitude, why should he buy her anything? It would seem

like he was trying to please her.

Bianca tugged at Gabriel’s hand, pleading, “Gabriel, please buy it for

Isabella. I want her to feel the warmth of family.”

Gabriel softened a bit at Bianca’s kind–heartedness. “Alright, for your

sake, I’ll buy it.”

Bianca beamed with delight. “Gabriel, Isabella will be so happy when

she finds out you bought her a dress!”

Gabriel looked at the white dress again, pressing his lips together.

Chapter 12

Really? Would Isabella be happy to see the dress he bought for her?

But she had been so harsh and rude to him at dinner yesterday.

After buying the white dress, Gabriel and Bianca left the mall and

headed home.

For some reason, he felt a tense anticipation about Isabella’s reaction

to the dress. After all, he might be the first person in the family to

buy her a gift.

As soon as they got home, Bianca ran inside. “Mom, we’re back!”

Olivia, sitting on the couch, smiled at her. “Come on, show me all the

beautiful clothes you bought.”

Gabriel followed with bags in hand.

Bianca chatted excitedly with Olivia about the new season’s

collections, and the two of them seemed genuinely happy.

Isabella came downstairs to this warm, lively scene.

“Isabella!” Bianca called out enthusiastically. “Gabriel got you a gift.

Isabella paused on the stairs, raising an eyebrow. “Me?”

Chapter 12

“Yep,” Bianca said, looking at Gabriel. “Gabriel, give Isabella the dress

you bought her!”

Gabriel, caught off guard, awkwardly placed one of the bags on the

table. “I saw it while buying clothes for Bianca and picked it up.”

He looked at Isabella, meeting her calm gaze, but saw no sign of

happiness.

Isabella’s expression remained unreadable.

It seemed she wasn’t moved at all.

The spark inside Gabriel was quickly extinguished.

Why was Isabella suddenly so cold to him? She hadn’t been like this a

few days ago! Before, if he had bought her clothes, she would have

been overjoyed. It was something she wouldn’t even have dared to

dream of back then.

Isabella, Gabriel got you a dress. Go and take it, Olivia said with a

smile, “Gabriel is very thoughtful toward you.”

Isabella blinked and walked over, casually picking up the bag. She didn’t leave immediately.

She opened the bag slowly. I’m curious–what kind of dress did

Gabriel buy for me?”

The dress was wrapped in a clear plastic bag, neatly folded inside,

making it hard to see.

Isabella reached out and opened the plastic bag.

“Isabella!” Bianca suddenly called out. It’s not convenient to try on

clothes in the living room.”

Isabella shot Bianca a sideways glance. “I know, I’m just taking a

look.”

Without waiting for Bianca to say anything, she tore open the bag

and pulled out the white dress.

In the next second, Isabella’s expression darkened.

She threw the dress at Gabriel in anger. “Is this a joke to you,

Gabriel?”

Gabriel was completely bewildered.

He caught the dress instinctively.
