Reborn: The Unwanted Heiress’s Revenge
Chapter 14
Tobias’s handsome face looked a bit gloomy. “I need to ask her
something.” He had felt uneasy all afternoon.
He couldn’t stop thinking about how Isabella had ignored him.
Olivia noticed Tobias’s odd expression and asked instinctively, “What
did Isabella do this time?”
Tobias took a deep breath. “At noon, Isabella saw Cleo at the hospital
entrance. She took my lunch from Cleo, saying she’d bring it to me.”
Olivia shrugged, unimpressed. “I thought it was something serious.
Isabella just wanted to show off in front of you, her dear brother.”
“But she didn’t bring the lunch to me,” Tobias said sullenly.
Olivia was puzzled, “What do you mean?”
Tobias clenched his fists, finding it difficult to speak but needing to
say it. “Isabella didn’t bring it to me at all. She ate it herself.”
Both Olivia and Cleo were stunned. “That’s impossible.”

Chapter 14
Isabella heard someone knocking and calling her name.
It sounded like Tobias.
She got up from her chair, ready to open the door.
Just then, her phone rang on the table.
Who would be calling her now?
Isabella walked over, picked up the phone, and froze.
The number flashing on the screen was one she had seen only a few
times but was very familiar with.
William was calling.
Why would he be calling her now?
And how did he even get her number? He had called her the night she
returned home.
“Hello,” Isabella pretended it was her first time receiving this call.

“Who’s this?”
“William.”
A cold and brief reply.
Isabella could imagine the cold, handsome look on his face as he said
those words.
“Oh, Mr. Brown! I didn’t expect it to be you!” Isabella feigned surprise.
“I was wondering how to contact you in three years, and here you are
calling me. This is great!”
“No need to wait three years,” William said. “You can contact me
anytime.”
Isabella paused. “I didn’t know your number before…”
“Well, now you do.”
Isabella was speechless.
Before she could say anything, she heard him say, “Save my number.”
“Okay!” Isabella quickly responded. “I’ll save it right now.”

“Good girl.”
Isabella was stunned.
Why did he say “good girl“?
This choice of words and tone seemed inappropriate for people who
had only met once.
She couldn’t understand William’s intentions.
“Um…” Isabella was a bit nervous. “Mr. Brown, why did you call?”
“To ask if you’ve eaten,” William said.
Isabella was taken aback. “What?”
He called just to ask if she had eaten?
Do rich people have nothing better to do?
“I haven’t eaten yet,” Isabella replied. “But I will soon.”
“What are you having?”

Isabella listed the dishes, “Spaghetti Bolognese, Roast Chicken, Beef
Stew, Mashed Potatoes, Caesar Salad.”
“Is that all? Just those few dishes?”
Isabella sensed a hint of dissatisfaction in William’s tone.
She quickly added, “There’s more! A lot more.”
Isabella rattled off more dish names, then paused, realizing how
absurd it was to be discussing this with the CEO of the Brown Group.
This didn’t fit the plot of her previous life at all…
William listened to Isabella list the dishes, thinking of how thin and
frail she looked before she died. A flash of pain and pity crossed his
eyes.
“Isabella, make sure you eat well.”
Isabella was confused. “What?”
Was William… caring for her?
She was bewildered for a few seconds and then quickly said, “Okay, I
will.”

Chapter 14
For some reason, she sensed a subtle tension and tenderness in
William’s deep voice.
Was it just her imagination?
They had just met. Why would he be tense or tender?
“Go eat. I’ll call you again tomorrow,” William said..
Isabella was about to say “okay,” but then her eyes widened. “What?
Tomorrow?”
“Yes, I’ll call you every day.”
Isabella was confused. “Every day?”
Who decided that?
“Is that a problem?” William’s voice grew deeper, sensing her
reluctance. “You don’t want to talk to me?”
Isabella quickly said, “Of course not. It’s fine.”
You’re so forceful, it’s not like I have a choice.

Chapter 14
In her previous life, she had heard of William’s ruthless methods and
his vengeful nature.
She didn’t want to provoke him now, especially since she hadn’t even
dealt with the Taylor family yet.
“Good, then I’ll contact you tomorrow.”
Isabella put on a hopeful expression. “Okay.”
The call ended.
Isabella let out a deep breath.
