Chapter 182 Pleasing Him
Jackson said nothing.
Isabella looked at Vanessa Falkona strangely and asked, “Aunt Falkona, you seem excited?”
A trace of discomfort flashed across Vanessa’s face. “Yes. Jackson has suffered a lot over the years. I grew up with him, and we can be considered childhood sweethearts. Of course, I’m excited that his leg can recover”
Isabella couldn’t help but laugh. This childhood sweetheart of Master Vaughn’s was something.
The 18 Blue Crystals also glanced at Vanessa. They had seen this woman before. She was the wife of Old Mr Sif
But they were more curious about Leward Duncan.
They all found this person very familiar.
“Mrs. Lockwood, we need to talk to you,” Claire said.
Isabella was stunned. She knew that Claire would not speak now unless it were something important.
Isabella smiled apologetically at the others and walked outside with the 18 Blue Crystals.
Draxton stayed inside and chatted with Jackson.
“Mrs. Lockwood, Leward Duncan looked very familiar to us. Even his voice sounded familiar ”
Claire went straight to the point once they had stepped outside.
Isabella’s expression changed. “You’ve met him before?”
Claire hesitated before she answered, “That was when we were experimental subjects. Someone was discussing the experimental data outside with Old Mr. Sif. Or rather, that person was leading the experiment. Although we were Old Mr. Sif’s killing tools, that person was in charge of the experiment. We have never seen that person’s face, but we remember his figure very clearly. In fact, his voice is exactly like that of Leward Duncan’s.”
Isabella’s eyes darkened. She took a deep breath and replied, “I understand. Don’t make it public for now.”
“Okay”
Isabella returned inside as if nothing had happened. Seeing that Master Vaughn and Draxton were chatting, she went into the kitchen and brought out a fruit platter
“Master Vaughn, what are we eating today?”
Jackson answered, “It’s Draxton’s first time here today. Go prepare his favorite dishes.”
Isabella’s eyes widened slightly. “Master Vaughn, you want me to cook alone?”
And how did these two get so familiar so quickly?
Jackson pretended to be angry and said, “You haven’t seen me for so long, and now you’re unwilling to prepare even a meal for me?”
Isabella hurriedly replied, “No, it’s just that you won’t let me cook alone, right?”
Jackson did not know whether to laugh or cry “Oh, Isabella…”
As he spoke, Jackson turned his wheelchair toward the kitchen. “Fine, as usual, you’ll stew the fish for me, and I’ll make braised pork ribs for you.”
“Alright, no problem,” Isabella replied with a smile.
Draxton quickly followed and said, “Master Vaughn, I’ll help you and Bella with the chores.”
Although he did not know how to cook, assisting them should be no problem.
Jackson nodded and did not refuse.
Draxton turned his head and looked at Isabella bitterly. They had been together for so long, but he had never tasted Bella s cooking.
He still clearly remembered the first time he met Bella Bella was preparing a table of food. She was so shocked when she turned around and saw him that she spilled a pot of soup and scalded herself
Thinking of this, Draxton’s gaze became even more resentful.
Isabella sensed his gaze and looked at him blankly. What kind of expression was that? Why did Draxton look so aggrieved?
Seeing this, Isabella leaned over and softly coaxed Draxton, “Be good. I’ll treat you to delicious food later Master Vaughn’s culinary skills are superb.”
Jackson also turned to look at Draxton strangely
Draxton gritted his teeth.
Furious, he turned around and gently bit on Isabella’s earlobe. “You wait and see tonight!”
Isabella raised her eyebrows and glanced back at him with her doe–like eyes. “I’ll be waiting!”
Draxton, “…”
