Chapter 1845

Isabelle was a little puzzled because Tom replied so confidently. She moved her head and stared at Tom. She asked him again for reaffirmation. “Is that love?” “Yes. Miss, your heart’s beating faster for Mr. Yach. You admire him, and you feel safe around him. More importantly, you even kissed him.” What Tom said next was a great help to Cedar. He told Isabelle, “Miss, if you don't love him, why would you take the initiative to kiss him? It doesn’t matter what your intention is. Since you kissed him, it must be because you do like him. Otherwise, you’ll only feel disgusted when you kiss others. Maybe you won’t feel disgusted because he’s handsome, but Miss, are you such a person?” Isabelle said firmly, “I’m weak to good looks.” Tom was simply speechless at her answer. Since he did not reply, Isabelle asked him again, “Do I really like him?” Tom was suddenly unsure of how to answer her. After all, the other party was Mr. Yach. Tom said, “Maybe you do like him, Miss .” Everything that Tom mentioned, including what he said earlier, made Isabelle come to a sudden realization. She began to have feelings for Cedar. If that was love, she must have fallen for him. She liked her Big Brother. “I really do like Big Brother,” muttered Isabelle. Isabelle saw Cedar’s message after she got off the plane. She did not reply to him immediately. To her, she felt like Cedar did not like her because of love. He only proposed that to her as a compromise. That was why she did not feel like talking to him yet. She wanted to sort out her feelings before considering anything else. Either way, it was not an urgent issue for her! Isabelle stayed in Ireland for a day before she finally sent Caroline a message to inform her that she was already in Ireland. Caroline spent so much effort preparing for her children’s birthday party, but one of the main stars left so suddenly. Thankfully, Raphael was still there to support the event. Otherwise, Caroline would severely punish Isabelle. Isabelle received many wishes on the day of her birthday. She did not reply to any of the messages. Meanwhile, Cedar arrived in Ireland on the day before her birthday. Cedar did not disturb Isabelle, so she was not aware that he came to Ireland as well. She went to a bar to have a drink as she celebrated her birthday. He followed her and watched over her. After she finished her drink, she left the bar without knowing that he followed behind her and watched her as she went back. Cedar then left for Norway after seeing that Isabelle got home safely. For the next five months, Isabelle continued practicing her parkour in Ireland. She improved greatly since she spent all her effort and time practicing. However, she did get hurt from falling. She mainly got some bruises, so it was not a significant problem. Caroline contacted her in early January. Caroline reminded Isabelle that there was still less than a week to the Lunar New Year and urged her to return home soon. That was when Isabelle finally noticed that she had too much fun practicing her parkour and lost track of time. Her mother would surely reprimand her when she returned to Wu City! Isabelle did not listen to Caroline’s instructions to return home immediately. Instead, she called Lucas and asked for Cedar’s whereabouts. Lucas told Isabelle, “He’s in Norway. I’ll send you his location later.” About five months ago, Isabelle noticed her feelings for Cedar. Throughout the five months that she was away, her feelings for him grew as she missed him more. There were certain things that she would have to settle eventually. For example, her feelings for Cedar. Naturally, she did not plan to confess her feelings to him yet. She could never give him the upper hand in their relationship! Isabelle rushed and flew to Norway immediately. She received a message from Lucas after she got down from the plane. She followed the location Lucas sent and took a car to the place. It was a tall and empty-looking building, but Cedar was nowhere to be found. She got confused, so she called Lucas again. “Brother Lucas, where is Big Brother?” Just when she finished her question, the sounds of gunfire blared from nearby. Tom immediately stepped forward and protected Isabelle in his arms. When she raised her head again, she saw Cedar tied up by someone else with many bleeding wounds on him. Isabelle lost control and cursed. “F*ck!” “Bella, your Big Brother Cedar ran into danger,” said Lucas on the phone. Suddenly, she realized that Lucas deliberately lured her to the scene. She was confused by Lucas’s actions and questioned him, “What’s the use of me being here? My fighting skills are rubbish compared to them!” “Bella, you have a big bodyguard team!” Isabelle suddenly remembered her team of bodyguards. She always had many bodyguards with her whenever she left home. After she hung up, she immediately ordered Tom, “Tell the other bodyguards outside to get ready for the rescue.”
