Welcome To My Life novel Chapter 9

A high-pitched yet raspy female voice came into the ears. The voice was mixed with pain and despair, which were very obvious in the night.

Eduard wrinkled his eyebrows and looked at Kit, “Mr. Stewart, if I’m not mistaken, Hamish broke one of your hands two years ago?”

Kit laughed at the words, “Mr. George, are you making fun of me? It is well known that Hamish is now going to marry Martha, so how will he have time for this unpresentable ex-lover? All a man can see is the smile of the new love, while the cry of an old one goes unheard. I’m sure you’ve heard this before.”

Unpresentable ex-lover.

The color drained from Isobel’s face as soon as she heard Kit’s words.

In fact, he was right, and it was just that she didn’t want to accept it.

But today, whether it was Kit, Martha or Hamish, they were all just telling her the truth.

She, Isobel, had always been a secret lover, a shameful plaything.

She closed her eyes and broke away from Kit’s hands, then walked toward Eduard. “No matter how bad I am, I still have the right to choose. Mr. Steward, you are out of my league.”

Kit grimaced upon hearing her words, but since Eduard was standing in front of her, he didn’t dare to do anything more to her and just gave a laugh. “Isobel, you’re really something. Hamish just dumped you and you immediately hooked up with Eduard! But let me warn you that you were too naive before and offended a lot of people, so you should be more careful not to make such a mess as today!”

Having said that, he twitched the corners of his mouth, then left with a sullen face.

Looking at Kit’s fading back, Isobel breathed a sigh of relief. But the moment she wanted to thank Eduard, her vision dimmed out all of a sudden and she collapsed to the ground.

“You -”

Eduard was just about to ask her if she wanted to go to the hospital, but in a flash, he felt the weight on his side. In response, he hurriedly carried her in his arms.

At that exact moment, Martha walked out of the club, holding Hamish’s arm.

When she saw Eduard holding Isobel in his arms, she raised her eyebrows. “Mr. George, what a coincidence! The beauty in your arms looks a bit familiar!”

She said and deliberately got closer to take a look. “Oops, isn’t she Miss Lewis?”

“Hamish, Miss Lewis seems to have fainted!”
