Chapter 447
Isabella never imagined that she could discuss her past with Joey calmly, let alone
receive a nonchalant smile from him.
“I appreciate your honesty,” he said.
Isabella forced a bitter smile. “There’s no need to hide. Imperia is neither big nor small.
Although you can hide it for some time, you can’t hide it forever.”
Joey nodded, and his eyes flickered slightly. “You’re right.” He stood up from his seat
across from Isabella. After a moment of hesitation, he said, “I have something to tell
you as well.”
Isabella was taken aback. Then, she smiled and said, “I just had a moment of stupidity.
You don’t have to take it so seriously.”
Joey shook his head. “It’s better to clarify some things from the beginning.”

Hearing his tone, Isabella sensed that it was important, so she took it seriously.
“…”
Just as Joey was about to speak, a loud honking sound interrupted them. Isabella was
startled. She turned around and saw a black Bentley parked nearby, with the driver
honking incessantly.
Joey stopped talking and asked Isabella, “Is that your friend?”
Isabella twitched her mouth and was unsure of how to respond for a moment.
The car had Seth’s license plate, but she wasn’t sure if he was inside.
Just as she hesitated, the car window suddenly rolled down. Seth’s face came into
view, and Isabella was surprised.
Although Seth didn’t get out of the car, his intention was clear.

“Aren’t you going?” Joey asked.
Isabella was already upset in the morning. Now, she was being stubborn, so she simply
stood up.
“Let’s walk a bit more.”
Joey was surprised, but he soon smiled and glanced into the car. Then, he followed
Isabella as she walked ahead.
On the other hand, Seth sat in the car and watched the duo walk further and further
away in disbelief.
Indeed, courage can be cultivated.
He closed his eyes and ordered the driver, “Follow them.”
The driver was confused but quickly complied.

The scene was peculiar.
Isabella was walking under the shade of the trees, accompanied by Joey, with a group
of black cars trailing behind. Those who walked by stole glances and wondered if
Isabella was someone from a wealthy family out for a leisurely stroll.
Isabella was stubborn, and so was Seth.
This strange scene continued for an hour and a half.
Finally, Joey put an end to it. “Isabella, you should go back and rest. Your feet aren’t
suitable for walking for too long.”
Isabella couldn’t help but curse inwardly. She took a sneak glance at the black car
behind her. If it weren’t for that idiot, I wouldn’t have walked for so long.
Joey walked over, patted her shoulder, and said, “Get in the car. He’s been waiting for a

long time.'”
Isabella was surprised and confused about his intentions.
“What were you going to tell me earlier?”
“I guess we won’t be able to discuss it today. Can we arrange another meeting?”
Isabella felt a bit disappointed but agreed without much thought. She held her breath
and was unwilling to accommodate Seth.
Unexpectedly, Joey turned and walked toward the black car, opening the door for
Isabella.
Seth frowned, and Isabella was puzzled.
“Sir, Isabella’s feet aren’t in great condition. She needs to rest.”
