Chapter 96 Before The Campaign
The scene was orderly. Other than the Lucsian elites, there were also members of the elite circle who had rushed over from overseas.
They were all reputable figures, and they were very polite.
Carlos’s actions kicked up quite a huge fuss before. Many people came because of his reputation.
In addition, someone had heard some rumors that the Miraculous Doctor would appear. Hence, more people came that time.
The Traditional Medicine Association’s banquet was different from other banquets. To put it bluntly, the Traditional Medicine Association’s banquet was a group of traditional medicine practitioners interacting with ordinary people to promote future cooperation and organizing charity events and some such.
Isabella was wearing a long gray-green dress. She looked elegant and dignified. Not only did she not look old, but she also looked very energetic.
She had a slender figure. Those who didn’t know better wouldn’t be able to tell that she was already the mother of two children.
Today, her long hair was tied up behind her head It was a simple and elegant hairdo When she walked into the venue with her arm wrapped around Draxton’s arm, everyone’s gazes immediately gathered on them.
Instantly, some influential figures rushed towards them.
However, not everyone dared to approach them
Some people were not qualified to talk to someone like Lockwood family’s chieftain after all
They could only stay at the outermost area and watch from afar
For example, the Rivera family.
“Dude, why does that woman look like Isabella? Could it be that the video that was exposed online was real? The video of the Lockwood family’s ex-chieftain protecting Isabella is it true? Is Isabella really his daughter-in-law?”
Regina’s eyes widened in shock.
Needless to say, Cristian was also looking at Isabella in shock. He knew very well that it wasn’t someone looking like Isabella, It was Isabella.
The identity of the man beside Isabella was undoubtedly the Lockwood family’s chieftain. Everyone who could get close to the Lockwood family’s chieftain was a figure at the peak of power in their world.
However, the question was, why was Isabella by Draxton’s side. Even with the video of Philip protecting Isabella exposed, they still suspected that it was fake. After all, how could an ordinary woman get close to a high and mighty figure like Draxton, they figured.
His gaze gradually became complicated. “Could Isabella’s marriage partner really be the Lockwood family’s chieftain?” He wondered.
That was unbelievable!
Everyone was saying that the Lockwood family’s chieftain was married. “Could it be that Isabella was Draxton’s mysterious wife?” He wondered further.
Actually, it was not necessarily a mystery, because the outside world was saying that the Lockwood family’s chieftain wife became an elite because of her children. Her background was very ordinary, and she was abandoned by her adoptive parents and biological parents.
There was no way a poor child abandoned by her parents be worthy of the Lockwood family’s chieftain.
it was not an exaggeration to say that even if a princess of a country married Draxton, it would not be considered marrying beneath one’s own status.
With Draxton’s status, even the leader of a country had to be polite to him.
Those two were so far apart in so many ways, that it was impossible for them to be together.
But they just were all the same.
“She’s Isabella Thompson? She’s even more beautiful than she looks in the video.” Madame Rivera said.
She was from a side branch of the Lockwood family. She was able to attend this banquet because of that identity.
Mr. Rivera said, “Why did we suspect that in the video, Mr. Lockwood protected Isabella because he saw injustice? He was really protecting his daughter-in-law!”
