Chapter 176
Isabella turned around and locked eyes with the speaker.

The person had short hair, a round face, and a tall figure. She was dressed in
a sleek black short dress. She looked clean and neat from head to toe.
If it weren’t for her sharp tongue, Isabella would have given this lady a
thumbs up.
“Miss, do I know you?”
“You don’t know me, but I do.” The lady lifted her chin, adopting a proud
posture. “Gordon brought you here, didn’t he?”
From her words, Isabella roughly understood that she was being treated as a
love rival.
“I’m Rachel Logan. My dad is Hugh Logan.” The lady introduced herself.
Isabella was speechless, feeling like this woman was wasting her good looks.
Besides her sense of fashion, she was just a pretty face.
She starts by dropping her father’s name. Is she that eager to show off?
Tucking a strand of hair behind her ear, Isabella tilted her head, intentionally
asking, “Logan? Is it Mr. Logan from the aviation industry?”
Rachel’s expression froze, and she pressed her lips tightly. After some
thought, she was about to force herself to speak.
However, Isabella added while supporting her chin with one hand, “No, that’s
not right. Mr. Logan doesn’t have a daughter. Did I remember it wrong?”
Rachel’s expression darkened as she glared at Isabella.
Their family was in the food business. Despite doing well in recent years,
thanks to their connection with the Dunkstein Family, they had nothing to do
with the Logan Family in aviation.
In just a few words, Isabella sharply pierced through Rachel’s upper-class
facade.
“You don’t need to bother about who I am. In any case, I’m more
distinguished than you!” Rachel snorted, glancing toward the direction of the
hall. Smugly, she said, “Ms. Ariel doesn’t even like you. Don’t you realize that
yourself?”
Even without her mentioning it, Isabella had discerned Ariel’s character at a
glance; she and Xavier were clearly not the same kind of people.
“Miss Logan, I think you’ve misunderstood. I’m just Gordon’s friend. There’s no
need to treat me as your imaginary enemy,” she explained reluctantly, as she
didn’t want to complicate matters further.
Disdainfully, Rachel glanced at Isabella as though the latter were lying. “Stop
pretending. Since you can make Gordon take you home, you must have put
in some effort, right?”
After taking a deep breath, Isabella clenched her teeth. “Miss Logan, if you
keep causing trouble, I won’t be polite.”
