Chapter 396
Chapter 396 The Disappointed Patriarch
Isabella held Mr. Hendrix's arm and helped him up. "The Hendrix family saved me. It's only right for me to repay you." Aspen was excited.
He thought that his relationship with Miraculous Doctor was special that other people could compare to. She had saved the Hendrix family's life As long as the Hendrix family adhered to their duty, the Hendrix family would never be afraid of being suppressed by the Riley family
At the thought of this, he glanced at the Riley family proudly
Mr. Riley also thought of this, and his face darkened slightly.
This was the Hendrix family's territory. Therefore, the Hendrix family personally arranged a banquet to entertain everyone.
Everyone agreed
"From now on, we're all on the same side." The Seventh Master said with a smile.
At the Hendrix family, as Isabella's identity changed, everyone's attitude was no longer as casual as before Aurora led Caleb over. Nathaniel had been sent to prison and would probably never be able to come out again.
Aurora looked a little uncomfortable as she had chased Isabella away previously
"Ms Josephina. No, Miraculous Doctor. I was blind before and wronged you. Please, don't mind me."
Caleb held Aurora's hand and looked at Isabella quietly with his dark eyes.
He was young and ignorant, but he also vaguely feel that something was different.
Isabella smiled and comforted her. "Aurora, it's hard to suspect the person who has been with you for so many years.
If you suspect your partner just because of a few words from others, that would be abnormal."
Tears streamed down Aurora's face as she turned her head away in embarrassment.
Isabella sighed and looked at Caleb.
"Caleb, come over!"
Caleb's eyes lit up, and he immediately walked toward her.
Isabella held his little hand and pulled him into her arms. She smiled and said, "Caleb, do you still remember our shared secret?"
Caleb nodded with bright eyes.
Isabella smiled and said, "Then we have to keep this secret forever."
"Yes."
Caleb nodded excitedly, and a layer of bright light gathered in his dark eyes.
Aiden was standing not far away. He could not help but pursed his lips and smiled when he overheard Isabella's words.
He was no longer stupid. He naturally knew that "Ms. Josephina is a fairy" was Miraculous Doctor playing
with them.
"But..."
Aiden blinked. She was a fairy in his heart.
Aiden looked at Caleb again. The truth of this secret would probably only be understood by Caleb when he grew up.
Isabella chatted with Aurora for a while. Seeing that although she was sad, she was still able to pull herself together, she got up and walked towards Draxton. When Draxton was talking to a few district masters, Ingrid walked over with two glasses of wine.
"Patriarch, a toast from me."
Ingrid handed one of the glasses to Draxton shyly. Her watery eyes looked at Draxton affectionately.
The crowd fell silent.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Several pairs of gossipy eyes stared at Draxton.
Draxton's face instantly darkened.
He looked at Mr. Riley and said, "Thomas, this is your daughter."
Thomas' heart skipped a beat.
Just as he was about to reprimand Ingrid, Ingrid said, "Mr. Lockwood, I just want to toast you. Are you afraid to accept it, or are you feeling guilty?"
Draxton's face darkened even more.
What was that supposed to mean?
What was he feeling guilty about?
Isabella walked over and happened to hear it. Her lips could not help but curl up.
The Seventh Master and the Third Master looked at Isabella, and they were looking forward to gossiping.
They wanted to know how the patriarch's wife was going to handle this situation.
Ingrid also saw Isabella and couldn't help but reveal a provocative expression.
Isabella glanced at Ingrid. When she saw Draxton looking at her, she couldn't help but chuckle and sit down beside him.
Isabella picked up a glass of wine and said to everyone, "Everyone, let's have a toast."
Everyone was stunned and quickly followed Isabella to drink.
Ingrid was left alone.
She was actually ignored.
Mr. Riley's expression was a little stiff.
Aspen smiled and poured wine for himself and Isabella. He smiled and said, “Miraculous Doctor, don't be affected by shameless people. Let me toast you." Isabella agreed and said with a smile, "Of course. I don't have to worry about these things. My patriarch can handle it himself.
"The last person who tried to ruin our relationship seems to have lost his entire family."
"Exactly, exactly."
Isabella and Aspen looked at each other and laughed.
Not only did Mr. Riley's face turn pale, but Ingrid's face also turned green.
She stared at Isabella angrily and thought. "How can this woman be so arrogant and jealous? Isn't she afraid of having her reputation as a tigress?"
Mr. Riley looked at Draxton and said in a low voice, "Patriarch, it's all my daughter's fault for not knowing her limits and making the patriarch's wife unhappy. Please don't be angry." Draxton looked at him and said in confusion, "I'm not angry. Why am I angry?"
After thinking for a while, he decided to tell Thomas about his feelings. "To be honest, I feel that my wife is
too good. She never gets jealous when there's an inexplicable woman who talks to me. Every time, I will have to protect my innocence. It's a little disappointing."
After saying that, he sighed in disappointment.
Mr. Riley was speechless.
Everyone was speechless.
