Welcome To My Life novel Chapter 40

Amanda was taken away by Hamish’s men. Isobel was like a kite being held by a string because Amanda was detained, so she had to stay in City N.

December’s wind could hurt people. She just got off the car and was scraped by the cold wind.

The doorman recognized Stanley’s car and also recognized Isobel. Although surprised, he did not dare to offend and hastened to welcome her with an umbrella, “Ms. Lewis, Mr. Shaw is waiting for you inside the room.”

Isobel nodded, “Thank you.”

Then she went under the umbrella and stroked a few snowflakes on her shoulder.

Just as she entered, the doorman called someone to lead her, “Jack, come quickly and bring Ms. Lewis to Mr. Shaw’s room.”

The staff named Jack quickly came over and smiled at Isobel, “Ms. Lewis, I’ll take you up.”

“Thank you.”

Isobel gave him a glance. Although she was smiling, the smile was faint. A pair of eyes curved; inside was only a smile without any hope.

The staff was stunned for a moment, not daring to look at her again, and hurriedly led the way in front, “Ms. Lewis, this way please.”

Isobel followed him up to the second floor, then into the elevator. Coming out of the elevator and made a turn only she reached the room.

With such a complicated design, if it wasn’t for someone leading the way, she might go to another place.

The staff helped her push open the door of the room. The screen blocked Stanley, who was inside, but Isobel could still see the person inside just right.

“Thanks.”

She answered and walked inside.

When Stanley saw her, he poured her a cup of hot tea and asked, “It’s cold today, right?”

“It’s indeed a little cold.”

Isobel took a seat, accepted the tea, and said thank you.

Stanley glanced at her, “You don’t talk much about anything these days, but you never stop saying ‘thank you.”

After he finished, he snorted, “Is the injury healed?”

The day Stanley picked her up from the airport, she didn’t pay attention when she went upstairs and rolled down the stairs. Her hand was accidentally fractured, and a splint supported her for the first few days. Isobel only went to the hospital yesterday to have the splint removed.

Hearing his words, Isobel was a bit terrified, “Much better, the doctor asked me to take care, and I will be able to recover in a month.”

After saying, she pursed her lips for a moment. She spoke with a dry throat, “There is still no news about——my mother?”

After Hamish took Amanda away that day, Stanley initially inquired where Amanda was, but Isobel was hospitalized. When she was discharged from the hospital, Amanda could not be found.

If she hadn’t watched Hamish take her away, Isobel wouldn’t have thought that Amanda was in his hands.

Stanley’s hand that was holding the teapot slightly froze, “Don’t worry, I had talked to Gabriel. Hamish didn’t dare to really do anything to your mother.”

Isobel had heard this many times, and she knew Stanley was doing his best. The Francis family had wide connections; Hamish knew many people. If Amanda was really hidden by him, it was normal to be unable to find her.

These days Hamish was very calm as if the person who wanted to destroy her that day at the airport was not him.

Isobel was always having nightmares these days, dreaming of Amanda’s various tragedies.

“Still having nightmares?”
