The owner brought over another plate of lasagna bolognese, isabelle picked up her fork to mix it herself and gestured toward Damian’s plate with her eyes. “Eat.”
Damian actually liked it when she bossed him around like this. It reminded him of when she first started refusing him.
Whenever she got angry, he felt completely at a loss.
Seeing Damian obediently start eating, Isabelle’s anxiety only grew.
What am I going to do?
Damian’s birthday was coming up, and she needed to be really careful. If he got mad and stormed out, she’d have no way to bring
him back.
That would truly be “keeping the kid and ditching the dad.” No, it’s more like “the dad leaves, the kid stays.”
But come to think of it, Damian had never really gotten truly angry with her before. The worst he ever did was scold her a little. She had no idea how he’d react this time.
She absentmindedly ate her second plate of lasagna bolognese. Damian was also eating absentmindedly.
Neither of them dared to speak easily.
The three–day team outing ended quickly.
Damian had someone set up a desk and a rocking chair in his office for her. He also prepared a snack rack filled with her favorite treats, placed books she liked to read nearby, and had the entire suite redecorated according to her tastes.
But today, Isabelle didn’t show up. It was already ten o’clock. She should have been up by now, and she should have been here. She was the one who said she was coming.
Damian looked at his phone, wanting to call her, but for some reason, he put it down and just sat in his office chair, feeling restless.

Damian frowned. She’s been up for a while, so why isn’t she here? Tiana has already made some of her favorite snacks and even got the ingredients ready for lunch.
“Where are you?” he asked.
Isabelle thought for a moment and said, “I’m at the studio.”
Damian said nothing. Brian had just dropped Diana off at the studio and had come back complaining to Damian that Isabelle was off playing, leaving Diana to handle everything alone.
Isabelle wasn’t at the studio. She was clearly lying.
Damian asked softly, “Are you still coming over today?”
Isabelle suddenly remembered she was supposed to go to work with him at the company. “I’ll be over in a bit,” she said.
Damian made an acknowledging sound. He was about to ask something else when he suddenly heard Anthony’s voice on the phone.
“Isabelle…” Anthony had just looked up and seen Isabelle on the phone. He quickly stopped what he was about to say.
Isabelle spoke to Damian on the phone, “Okay, I’ll be there in a bit.”
Damian was silent for several seconds on the other end. “Okay,” he said.
Isabelle hung up and walked over to Anthony. “What’s wrong?” she asked.
Anthony put down his tools. “I’m missing a part. I’ll go out and look for it. Don’t wait around here. I’ll let you know when it’s fixed. It shouldn’t be a problem.”
Isabelle breathed a sigh of relief. Although she’d already ordered a new one online, it would be even better if this old one could actually work. But she wasn’t planning on returning the new one.
“Thank you, Anthony,” Isabelle said, leaving the villa key with him.
After hanging up, Damian sat stunned in his chair, staring at the name “Honey” on his phone for a long time.
Why is it Anthony again?

Before, Lydia said Anthony admitted Isabelle was his girlfriend, which was what ended things, between them. Now Lydia was constantly causing trouble for Isabelle.
Could it be… they still have feelings for each other? Are they not completely over it yet?
Damian rubbed his forehead.
