Chapter 1847

His question came at a really inappropriate time. Besides, Cedar never formally confessed his feelings for her. To Isabelle, she felt like he had no romantic feelings for her yet. If that was the case, why would Isabelle admit her feelings for him? Besides, her feelings for him had just blossomed. She was love-struck, but it was only limited to her reliance on him. She was not head over heels in love yet. It was not to the point it was already an unforgettable love. She did not feel love like what Zachary and Caroline had described to her. That was why she decided to spend more time with him, to slowly experience those feelings. She gave herself a chance while giving Cedar a chance too. She acted silly and tried to shift his attention away. “Escape quickly!” They were still in a hazardous situation. Cedar had no time to waste, so he stopped pressing on his question. He carried Isabelle and put her beside Tom. He left immediately after and went back upstairs to meet Lucas. The whole scene was chaotic. Isabelle hid behind her bodyguard and stared at the two men with admiration as they dealt with their enemies. “Brother Lucas and Big Brother are so handsome!” Their tough and powerful beauty shocked her. Isabelle was well protected from a young age. She had not faced many dangerous situations or big scenes in life apart from playing extreme sports. Besides, why would she face a real fight scene like that in extreme sport? That was why Isabelle’s excitement was boiling in her heart at that moment. She did not expect to see such a side to Lucas and Cedar. Lucas was always gentle and pleasant to her, yet he was so handsome when he fought with his enemies. Her Big Brother was equally charming too! “Miss, you shouldn’t be worried about that in a time like this,” reminded Tom. Tom could not resist saying that, but he felt it was inappropriate right after he said it. He should have been mindful of his words because Isabelle was his employer. Isabelle waved her hand and said, “That doesn’t stop me from admiring them.” Tom was speechless at her response. He asked, “Miss, should we go out and wait?” Initially, Isabelle wanted to wait for them outside. However, she changed her mind because she did not want to fall into the enemies’ hands. She replied sensibly, “Let’s go back to the hotel.” Isabelle waited in the presidential suite at the hotel. About half an hour later, Cedar contacted her. “Isabelle, come to the villa by car.” Cedar referred to his house in Norway when he mentioned the villa. Isabelle knew that place because she had previously been there. The weather in Norway was freezing cold, and it was snowing outside. Isabelle changed into a white hoodie and a down jacket before she left. She did not put on her makeup. She only dressed casually as she left. Tom did not follow Isabelle as she left. He waited until the driver drove Isabelle away and followed behind her in another car. That was his habit for years, to give Isabelle the biggest freedom and to not disturb her. It was not just him, but the whole bodyguard team behind as well. In the car, Isabelle contacted Lucas. The latter answered her call and called out for her gently. “Bella, are you alright?” “Brother Lucas, where are you now?” asked Isabelle. He replied, “I’m on my way back to Wu City.” “Brother Lucas, my Big Brother told me to go to his villa. I’m rushing there now. Do you want to come too? I’m quite familiar with this area. I’ll bring you around for the next few days! “By the way, Brother Lucas, you were obviously with Big Brother earlier. Why did you keep that a secret from me? You even gave me the address to such a dangerous place.” Lucas answered honestly, “Your Big Brother Cedar is a man that always dwells in danger. However, he acts so calm and steady in front of you. I wanted to let you see the other side of him. Perhaps you’ll have other feelings for him once you get to know him better, Bella.” “Feelings? I do feel something. He feels more handsome now.” Lucas laughed hearing that. He replied, “Bella, you’re so direct.” Isabelle asked in confusion, “Why must you show me the other side of him? Brother Lucas, I feel like you’re trying to set me up with him!” “Bella, you’ve finally realized.” Lucas admitted it in such an open manner. Isabelle suddenly fell silent. Lucas asked her, “What’s on your mind right now?” “I’m thinking, but why him and me? Why are you trying to matchmake us, Brother Lucas? Is this the man you chose for Bella?” Isabelle would never hide her honest thoughts in front of Lucas. She always asked him about her doubts to seek clarification. Lucas explained, “Because Cedar is the only one that I approve of. He’s suitable for you, and he can take good care of you, Bella. I’ll be rest assured if you’re with him for the rest of your life.” “Oh, my mind feels like a mess.”
