Welcome To My Life novel Chapter 33

It was 4am in the morning, outside, the wind was blowing and snow was falling, it was so freezing that even the street animals looked for a warm place to hide.

But no matter how cold it was outside, Isobel felt that her heart was even colder.

Everyone thought that she was dating Hamish for his money, even her mother did.

The 300 thousand meant nothing to her right now, but it was exactly those 300 thousand that diminished her pride that she used to carry with her.

She couldn't even remember how many times she had to ask Hamish for money to give to Amanda.

Everytime Amanda told Isobel that she would quit gambling, again and again, she would cry to her and swear that she would quit. But whenever she sat back at that table, she forgot who Isobel was to her.

Isobel didn't even know what she was expecting from this kind of a mother.

City N was so big, but it had no home for her.

When she was back in her apartment, Isobel noticed that she was burning up, so she measured her temperature, and found that she was having a fever.

There was nothing in her apartment, except for some vitamins. She couldn't find anything else.

This flu hit her really hard, and knocked her out.

Just as Isobel finished taking her temperature, which was 39.8C, she got a phone call from Stanley.

After hanging up the phone, she changed her clothes and left the apartment.

When Isobel got off the taxi, she ran into Hamish and Freddie.

As Freddie saw her, he said surprised, "Isobel, it's been a while!"

Isobel laughed, "Long time."

While talking, she walked towards the door.

"Stanley."

She mentioned Stanley's name, and was led inside by a clerk.

Not a single time did she lay her eyes on Hamish.

Freddie said, "I think Isobel didn't even look at you."

As he finished speaking, he saw that Hamish turned to look at him, his gaze was so cold that Freddie had it run down cold his back.

"I'm just saying the truth."

Hamish snorted, and watched Isobel walk away, his expression was obscure.

Freddie tilted his head to look at him, and remembered what Isobel just said, "If I am not mistaken, she is here to meet Stanley? What is she meeting with him for?"

Hamish didn't respond, only his eyes darkened more.

Isobel exited the elevator, and was quickly taken to Stanley.

"Mister Shaw."

She greeted the man on the couch, and when Stanley heard her voice, he looked up to see her, "What a pleasure, Isobel."

Isobel pressed her lips together, and sat down on the side.

Stanley poured two glasses of wine, and handed one to her.

Isobel took the glass, but did not drink it.

Stanley leaned back, and looked at her with a fake smile, "What, are you afraid I added something?"

Isobel shook her head, "I got a cold, I can't drink alcohol."

"You got a cold? Let me see!"

He said, and leaned towards her.
