Sweet Divorce novel Chapter 26

Liam hung up the phone and got up. Then he handed a document from the drawer to Rita. "Before she comes, you can take a look at the information about this woman first."

"... Have you gone to check her private files?" When Rita lowered her head and glanced at the woman's experience from birth to adulthood, she couldn't help but comment on it.

Liam frowned slightly and replied patiently," The information makes winners."

"Understood."

Rita sat on the sofa, flipping through the documents in her hands.

When she saw the two words on the name column, she frowned slightly.

Isabelle Anderson?

This name was so familiar as if she had heard it before, but now she couldn't remember who Isabelle was. 'Isabelle Anderson, Isabelle ...'

"Is there any problem?"

Suddenly, she heard Liam's voice. Rita nodded at first, but then she shook her head. "No, I just think the name sounds familiar."

"She's in the same university as you." As the man spoke, he pointed to the university column with his slender finger.

Rita followed the man's fingertips and saw her school and class.

With a bitter smile, Rita said, "Is it because I have seen her before that I feel familiar with her name?"

"Rita, have you ever been to school after marriage?"

Although this sentence was a question sentence itself, Liam said it with a certain meaning.

Hearing that, Rita felt a little awkward.

In her previous life, she was clingy to Liam and pay no attention to study, so she had seldom gone to school.

Even if she had gone there, it was just for the exams, and she had never seen her classmates before.

How could she be familiar with Isabelle and her name?

Rita looked through Isabelle's information again in confusion, trying to find some useful clues.

She flipped through the information many times, and she almost could recite some of Isabelle's information. But she still couldn't remember where she had heard or seen this person.

"Can't you remember her?" Seeing she was a little annoyed, the man asked in a low voice.

"I can't remember." Rita shook her head helplessly.

"Then don't think about it. Maybe when you calm down, the answer will come out naturally."

As Liam spoke, he snatched the documents from Rita’s hands peremptory.

Rita subconsciously wanted to grab the documents, but the man gave a bottle of yogurt into her hand. "If you look more at them, they will only disturb you. It's almost time for Isabelle to arrive. You should go inside and hide."

"Go inside...?!" Rita tilted her head and looked at the room inside. She frowned and said, "I don't want to go inside. I want to ask her a lot of things."

"The short surveillance video can't prove that Isabelle did something on your mobile phone. After all, there is no record in the surveillance video of what she did in one minute when she bent down. So, you should understand that this time we are just trying to sound her out."

Of course, Rita understood what Liam meant.

She tilted her head and looked at him in confusion. "But what's the difference between I'm here or not?"

"The man who dares to hurt my people in this F City, he must have prepared well against me and the Wilson family. He is cruel. Today, I will talk to Isabelle about what happened in the past, and I will definitely alert the enemy. The mastermind behind the scenes certainly doesn't want us to continue to investigate it, so he will definitely do something. It is difficult for him to hurt me, but if he knows that you are also involved, it will be easy for him to hurt you and your Brown family."

When he finished speaking, his pupils couldn't help but shrink.

Why did he keep thinking about this woman recently?

Liam liked to control everything, but when Rita accidentally broke into his world, she disturbed his marriage and life. Now... he couldn't even control his love.

Liam didn't like the feeling of losing control.

He didn't like it very much.

What's more, he was against it from the bottom of his heart.

Therefore, after saying these words, he couldn't help but frown.

Fortunately, Rita didn't notice anything strange about him.

After thinking about it over and over again, for the sake of her parents' safety, she chose to listen to Liam's advice and go to the lounge in the suite...

"Liam, she is here."

Jacob's voice came from outside. Through a crevice on the door, Rita saw a thin, elegant, and long-haired girl following behind Jacob.

Perhaps she was nervous, so Isabelle looked very restrained. When she entered the room, she kept her head down, and her little hands couldn't help but clench.

Was she Isabelle?

Rita couldn't imagine that this girl, who looked very reserved and honest, might be the one who deliberately framed her.

"Miss Isabelle, you attended a banquet held by the Smith family a year ago, but I know that the Smith family has never given you an invitation, so I really want to know who you entered the banquet with."

While she was lost in thought, Liam, who was sitting with his back to her, asked her.

"... I, I was going to attend another banquet, but I went to the wrong place."

"Oh, really?"

Liam turned to look at Isabelle with a faint smile, but his eyes seemed to be a knife, which was going to pierce the woman's skin and see through her mind.

Such a great momentum made Isabelle so nervous that she couldn't help clenching her fists. "Yes, I don't know why Mr. Wilson suddenly let me here and ask me such questions."

"Miss Isabelle, do you still remember the lady on your left in the banquet?" The man did not answer Isabelle's question but asked again.

Hearing this, Isabelle clenched her little hands tighter. She looked down at the man's leather shoes and forced a smile. "A lady? If you don't tell me, I'll think it's a gentleman. I'm sorry, it's been too long. I really can't remember the details clearly."

Liam's sharp eyes glanced at the woman's clenched hands and then stared at her nervous eyes. "Miss Isabelle, if you recall something, please call me."

As he spoke, Liam gracefully stepped forward and handed over his business card to Isabelle.

Seeing Isabelle took the business card, the man looked at Jacob and said, "Send Miss Isabelle back."

"OK." Jacob nodded.

After saying goodbye politely, Isabelle left with Jacob.
