Chapter 447
The sound of the wine glass shattering shocked everyone back to their senses.
Frieda stumbled backward and almost fell. Patriarch Wheeler supported her. Erica covered her mouth in shock while Denver shouted, "Isabella, what are you doing?' Isabella looked at him and spread her hands expressionlessly, looking extremely innocent.
'Impudent! This is outrageous!' Frieda calmed herself down and wiped the wine that flowed down from her head. She pointed at Isabella ferociously.
Isabella looked at her contemptuously and snorted lightly. She then stared at her
nonchalantly.
Frieda rolled her eyes in anger when she saw how arrogant Isabella still was. She leaned against Patriarch Wheeler and panted continuously. Mr. Chancely suddenly started clapping. He stared at Isabella and said, Good, good. Miss, you really surprised me. I admire you very much!" After saying the last few words, he leaned forward slightly toward Isabella. His voice was also lowered slightly, revealing a hint of
flirtatiousness.
Isabella's gaze turned to him. There was no emotion in her dark eyes.
'Erica, help your mother back to her room to tidy up," Patriarch Wheeler said to Erica. Erica looked at Shelly worriedly and nodded. Then, she helped Frieda upstairs. Patriarch Wheeler stared at Isabella gloomily and said, "Although the Wheeler family and the Barker family don't interact much, as the granddaughter-in-law of the Barker family, aren't you being too arrogant by treating your elders like this? Aren't you afraid that the Lockwood family will be mocked?"
Isabella found it hilarious. She smiled and was about to speak when Mr. Chancely said, "Mr. Wheeler, who did you say she is?"
Patriarch Wheeler looked at Mr. Chancely and said meaningfully, 'It's my fault. I forgot to introduce you. Mr. Chancely, this is the wife of the Lockwood family's patriarch, the Miraculous Doctor, Isabella Thompson from the Lockwood family!"NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
'Miraculous Doctor, Isabella Thompson?" Mr. Chancely's eyes widened in surprise. His expression changed when he looked at Isabella again.
It became even more passionate.
"So you're Miraculous Doctor. I'm sorry. I'm Jerico Chancely, from the Chancely family
of Southeast Aelinne. I'm sure you have heard of me.* He extended his hand toward Isabella as he spoke.
Isabella lowered her gaze and stared at the outstretched hand. His nails were yellowish with some parts darker than others. The darker parts were brown, formed from long-term smoking.
In addition, there were calluses on his thumb and index finger. It was a hand that held a gun all year round.
Isabella slowly looked up and sized up the other party's appearance. The other party had a pair of brown eyes, which were long and narrow but lacked any charm. Instead, they were turbid and lewd. There was a faint coldness like a poisonous snake in them, and they were as ruthless and heartless as a beast.
The other party's facial features were not ugly. His curly hair hung down his shoulders, and he was wearing a fresh green suit that made him look rather sleazy. Isabella ignored the other party's outstretched hand and chuckled. "I've heard of the Chancely family in Southeast Aelinne.
Someone once invited me to Southeast Aelinne to treat someone, but I refused. I
heard that the patient is also from the Chancely family?"
Jerico retracted his hand without any embarrassment. He smiled and said,
'Miraculous Doctor, you have a good memory. Indeed, that sickly person is my elder
brother. However, I don't blame you. After all, my elder brother is still alive." "Miss Thompson."
Erica's voice suddenly rang out.
Jerico looked over unhappily. There was a fierce glint in his eyes. Erica shrank her
neck, but she still braced herself and said,
"Miss Thompson, my mother has invited you into the house to talk. About what
happened before... she was too agitated just now. Don't hold it against her.'
Isabella's lips curled into a mocking arc as she nodded and said, 'All right, since
Madame Wheeler has got over it and is willing to apologize to me, I can go and see her."
Then, ignoring Erica's stiff expression, Isabella and Yvette walked straight toward her. Shelly panicked.
She looked at Erica helplessly.
Erica gave her a comforting look and turned to lead Isabella and Yvette away.
The members of Big Dipper could not help but feel a little anxious when they saw that
Isabella was about to leave their sight. Isabella placed her hands behind her back and gave them a "5" signal.
