Chapter 204 Monte
Zolo’s lips could not help but curl up.
Chris glanced at him indifferently and turned to Isabella. “Bella, can I buy you dinner?”
Isabella nodded without thinking. She could not bear to look at Zolo’s family now.
Isabella said to Zolo. “I’ll get going first.”
Then, she bade farewell to Madame Emma Lockwood and the others and left Zolo’s house with Chris.
Zolo sent her to the gate. Isabella turned around and waved. She saw Zolo and his family walking out. Even Bobby, the autistic little boy, came out.
Isabella sighed, waved her hand, and left with Chris.
After getting into the car, Isabella asked, “Did the Zolo family stand against you during the crisis you experienced two years ago?”
Chris nodded and said, “No one was on my side back then. I thought I was almost hopeless. The others thought so too. Zolo’s family was just one of them. However, they are not the leaders, so I left them a way out.”
His voice was aggrieved and cold. He felt aggrieved because of the despair and coldness at that time. It was also because of those who had abandoned him when he was down.
He would only reveal his grievances when facing Azure Dragon.
“But Zolo’s family said that they lost all their assets ten years ago because of a business problem,” Isabella said.
The corner of Chris’s mouth twitched. “Ten years ago, they also suffered a huge setback under my hands.” Isabella facepalmed.
What an evil fate.
“Thank you for your help two years ago. I’ve never formally thanked you.”
Chris looked deeply at Isabella. “Before this, I didn’t even know if you were a man or a woman, old or young. but I had long regarded you as the most important friend in my life.”
Isabella smiled. Two years ago, she thought a genius like Chris should not die, so she helped him. Now, she had gained herself a friend.
They arrived at a luxurious western restaurant and chatted as they ate.
“I didn’t even know you came to Avon.” Chris sounded a little resentful.
Isabella briefly told him about Claire and the Carol family’s situation.
Chris narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “The Carol family is very influential. Of course, they are strong because their predecessor, the Andri family, was powerful. Sean is just a liar and a thief. However, this swindler is very ruthless. He is also quite good at business. In the past two years, I had taken revenge on many people, but I had been slow in dealing with the Carol family. In fact, I’ve already made plans. In less than a year, I can make the Carol family go bankrupt.”
Isabella looked at him in amazement. It wasn’t easy to make a wealthy family like the Carol family go bankrupt
Chris said, “In the past, the Andri family had the support of two big shots. Later, these two big shots joined the Carols, allowing Sean to smoothly take control of the Andri family and change their name to the Carol family. Start with those two big shots if you want to take everything back as soon as possible.”
Isabella’s eyes lit up. She asked, “Who are they?”
“Kurt and Marshall. If these two go down, it’ll be equivalent to Carol losing their arms and legs.”
Isabella’s eyes curved, and she smiled happily. She picked up the red wine, and the two clinked glasses gently.
Sitting opposite them were a young man and a woman. The young man kept looking at Isabella. Isabella had long noticed him, but she ignored him.
That was because the young man’s gaze was too frivolous. He must be some wealthy playboy who treated her as prey.
Isabella ignored him.
However, the other party was clearly unable to hold himself back. The waiter walked over and served them an exquisite cake, saying it was from that guy.
Following the waiter’s gaze, Isabella and Chris looked at the other party.
When the young man saw them looking over, he raised his glass slightly and revealed a smile that he thought was charming.
Chris’s eyes turned cold.
The young man did not see clearly that the man opposite Isabella was Chris. Now that he recognized Chris, his expression could not help but stiffen.
Isabella said to the waiter, “Please take this cake. I don’t need it.”
The waiter seemed troubled, but in the end, he took the cake away.
Perhaps because the young man was scared of Chris, he did not cause more trouble.
After dinner, Isabella and Chris left the restaurant.
As soon as they left, the young man called someone to investigate Isabella. His eyes were filled with determination.
His female companion showed dissatisfaction, but he dismissed her with disgust.
