Reborn: The Unwanted Heiress's Revenge (Isabella) novel Chapter 17

Chapter 17

Chase must have worked late last night and only got home then.

Isabella saw him but didn’t bother to greet him. She walked straight

to the farthest seat from him and started eating breakfast by herself.

Chase looked at her.

Today, Isabella had on her exaggerated makeup again. Her long,

straight red hair looked obviously fake, the yellowish foundation

completely covered her natural skin, and the smoky eye makeup replaced her naturally delicate eyeliner, making her unrecognizable.

Reverse makeup.

Isabella was very good at it.

Chase dismissed it, thinking she was just trying to draw the family’s

attention away from Bianca in her own unique way,

But people are emotional creatures. Bianca had been with their

family for seventeen years, and that was something Isabella could

never take away.

He hoped Isabella could understand this and get along with Bianca.

If she could treat Bianca like a real sister, he could still treat Isabella

like a real sister too.

Chase remembered what the driver, Kai, had said earlier and asked,

“So, why are you going to the hospital today?”

This was the first time Chase had initiated a conversation with her.

Isabella replied indifferently, “Getting a vaccine.”

Actually, the Taylor family’s genes were pretty good. Chase, Tobias,

Kieran, and Gabriel were all exceptionally handsome in their own

unique ways.

Chase was cool and composed, Tobias was bright and warm, Kieran

had the looks of a celebrity, and Gabriel was strikingly rebellious.

Who wouldn’t be drawn to such brothers?

Isabella used to be like that. To her, they were all outstanding, and

she naturally wanted to get closer to them, to learn from them, much

like a girl idolizing celebrities,

But now…

Chapter 17

Isabella had seen through their biased nature and selfish

personalities beneath their impressive exteriors. She had lost all

interest in these so–called “high–quality men.”

“Why are you getting a vaccine?” Chase asked again.

Isabella had mentioned before that Gabriel had thrown her to

Heather Bluff, but he didn’t know her hand had been bitten by a wild

animal.

Isabella’s eyes were calm. “I was bitten by a guard dog.”

Chase was slightly shocked.

He hadn’t known about this.

A girl being thrown into the wilderness at night and then being bitten

by a wild animal…

He couldn’t help but imagine the scene, and his brow furrowed.

Even though he didn’t like Isabella, he didn’t condone Gabriel’s

behavior either.

Chase opened his mouth, speaking in a low voice, “Isabella, I’ll talk to

Gabriel…”

“No need to trouble yourself,” Isabella interrupted indifferently. “This

is between Gabriel and me.”

With that, Isabella didn’t look at him again. She put down her

utensils and left the dining room.

Chase was stunned, staring at the now empty spot, his brow

furrowing.

No need to trouble yourself?

She was being so distant.

Chase felt inexplicably annoyed.

Just then, he saw Gabriel walk in, still groggy. Chase stared at him

and demanded, “Did you know Isabella was bitten by a guard dog?”

Gabriel shook his head blankly. “No, when did this happen?”

“When you threw her to Heather Bluff.”

Gabriel was taken aback.

Before he could say anything, Chase continued, “Gabriel, when are

you going to grow up?”

Gabriel looked at Chase’s displeased face, momentarily confused.

What was up with Chase?

“Chase, Isabella being bitten by a guard dog isn’t my fault. I only did that because she pushed Bianca first. Did she think about what could

have happened to Bianca if she got hurt…”

“Shut up.” Chase’s brow furrowed deeply. He pulled out his phone and

did something on it. When he looked back at Gabriel, his eyes were

full of warning. “I’ve frozen your allowance card for now. Think about

what you did wrong, and I’ll unfreeze it when you figure it out.”

With that, Chase got up and left.

Gabriel was stunned.

It took him a while to react.

He angrily kicked the table leg.

What the hell?

Why was his morning ruined like this?

Who did he offend?

Chapter 17

When Isabella went to find the driver, Kai, she saw Tobias already in

the car, ready to go.

“Ms. Taylor, Mr. Chase Taylor needs to go to the office later, so Eli’s

car will be used for that. Since both you and Mr. Tobias Taylor are

going to the hospital, I’ll take you both together,” Kai explained.

The Taylor family only had two drivers, Eli and Kai.

Chase’s office and the hospital were in opposite directions.

So Kai’s arrangement was indeed the best solution.

Tobias sat in the back seat, not saying a word. His handsome face

showed signs of irritation, his dark eyes slightly narrowed, clearly

unhappy with the arrangement but having no choice.

“No need,” Isabella told Kai. “You take him. I’ll get a cab.”

Her words surprised both Kai and Tobias.

Tobias hadn’t said anything to her, hadn’t forbidden her from getting

in the car, and hadn’t shown any displeasure. Yet Isabella would

rather take a cab than ride with him?
