Their Bundle Of Joy novel Chapter 2

Isabel bit her lip, "I'm sleepy, and I'll go upstairs." She didn't want to explain.

She would never live with Henry White, just because her mom was gone when she was six years old, moreover, Adam left her to Henry White.

There're are more than a dozen rooms in the White's villa.

She still was the most unwanted to stay here.

"Stop here!" Henry White was irritated by her reaction, and roared at Isabel.

Isabel continued walking up the stairs, and said, "Mr. White, it's time to sleep. If you wanna stay up all night, that's your business. But I'm going to bed."

"Isabel, look at your...your..." Henry White glanced at the hickeys on Isabel's body with a hatred look, "I remember exactly you're gotta be a freshman when you enter university. But look at you, consorting with men from now onas a college freshman. Think about it, will Mr. Barrett like you the way you are?"

"That's great if he won't like the way I am, cause I don't want to marry that old man." She only wanted to marry Adam. Unfortunately, Adam was getting married to another girl. He might hadhave forgotten the little girl he saved back then.

But she couldn't get over him.

"Isabel, your dad has already set up your wedding date with Mr. Barrett. It will be the eighth day of next month when you're 18 years old already and it's a lucky day .for both of you. Marrying Mr. Barrett means that you will be a respected Mrs Barrett with a lot of fortune. Your mom will also be pleased if she's informed of it."

Miah Byrne pulled Henry over, tried to calm them down while she persuaded Isabel.

Turning around, Isabel stood still with a slim figure leaning on stairs. She squinted at Miah Byrne from above.

"Mom Miah, so marrying Mr. Barrett is considered a life winner for girls in accordance to your words?"

"That's for sure, you'll be rich at a young age. It's incredible for the ordinary to marry such a man like Mr. Barrett. But your dad cherishes you so much so that he'll select the best wealthy-stud for you in T City."

The compliments were exactly what Isabel wanted from Miah Byrne. When Miah Byrne finished her words, Isabel smiled but responded seriously, “In this case, I'll be willing to give up Mr. Barrett while Abby can take the place of me.

In this way, Mom Miah must be very pleased and comforted that your daughter finds the right one." Speaking of young age, they just blinded her for the fact that Mr. Barrett's already forty years old. She Isabel would be definitely the last one to marry that old man.

After saying so, Isabel casually turned around regardless of the three in surprise. As walking up the second floor, she continued, "Well, we're a family. Dad, Mom Miah and Abby, all of you don't need to appreciate that. Good night."

When Isabel turned to her room, Abby White was the first to have a reaction, "Isabel, what are you talking about? I've got my Mr. Right. It's you who marry Mr. Barrett, not me!"

Hearing the arrogant words from LuLuAbby, Isabel didn't turn back, and shouted out before closing the door, "I've also got the one, and I won't marry others."

"Boom...boom..." The harsh knock on the door interrupted Isabel's mind, "Isabel, open it, your dad has something to say to you."

Distinguishing it's Miah outside, Isabel took a cotton swab directly from the shelf, then tore two pieces and plugged it into her ears. What Miah doing had nothing to do with Isabel, cause she didn't hear it even a little bit.

"In the world only mama's dear..." The phone rang, Isabel still closed her eyes and took the phone, "Hey..."

"Isabel, do you know Adam's holding a press conference?" It was Celia, her best friend.

Isabel sat up in shock, and she was completely awakened, "Wh...what kind of press conference?"

"It's about the marriage of Adam Howard and Stella Fry. They will get married on the eighth day of next month."

At the moment, Isabel froze with her steady gaze on a point of the sheet, and she could no longer moved her eyes away.
