Chapter 1815

Zachary previously taught Isabelle about family. He taught her to be protective of her family even if she was not in a great relationship with them. Besides, her family had always been kind and caring to each other. It was already kind enough for Isabelle not to take revenge on the man who used to bully her mother. Who knew that he actually dared to complain about her vengefulness! Isabelle simply ignored Chris and continued enjoying her cocktail. Well, Chris did not mind her attitude at all. He turned around and continued chatting with the other kids. The group remained in the bar for almost two hours. Isabelle drank so much and started to get tipsy. She even went to vomit in the toilet when she was in the bar. After she vomited, someone passed her another drink. After she drank it, her mind started to go fuzzy. “Chris, what’s the alcohol percentage in this?” Isabelle was a good drinker. She would usually sober up after vomiting. However, she felt like something was wrong after drinking the new cocktail! Her mind gradually became foggy and turned into a daze after a while. “The alcohol with the highest percentage here!” “You tricked me. Are you not afraid that I’ll take revenge on you?!” Isabelle lifted her leg to kick him. Chris quickly explained, “I wanted to give it to someone else. I didn’t expect you to take it!” Isabelle shook her head and forced herself to sober up. About a few minutes later, someone walked up to her and said, “Miss Schick, Mr. Yach told us to bring you back to his condominium after you’ve had enough fun.” It turned out that Cedar was already aware that she left. However, he never stopped her from leaving. “Oh. Sure.” Isabelle followed them and left at a clumsy pace. Her feet felt heavier after walking for a while. When she got close to the entrance, she suddenly fell. However, she did not fall onto the ground. Instead, a pair of strong arms caught her. Then, a pleasant scent stimulated her nose. She sniffed a little and said, “You smell so good.” “Isabelle, are you drunk?” The man’s voice was low yet gentle. Isabelle tried her best and lifted her head to look at him. However, his face was blurry in her sight. She grinned and replied, “That’s right, I’m drunk. You smell so good. I like you more than Brother’s scent.” The man chuckled and said, “Thanks for the compliment.” Someone supported Isabelle’s body and brought her to the car. Soon, the man put her into the car. She lay down and said, “Why do I feel more and more tired?” “You’ll get a headache tomorrow after getting drunk,” reminded the man softly. “But I’m a good drinker. I feel dizzy, and I want to sleep. Who are you? You seem so familiar. Have I met you somewhere before? Where have I met you before?” Isabelle started mumbling and answered her own question, “Oh. You’re my Big Brother!” The man smiled lightly and asked, “You finally recognize me?” “It’s my handsome Big Brother,” said Isabelle. Isabelle’s mind was all fuzzy. She kept mumbling nonsense throughout the ride. She became tired after talking so much, so she turned aside and hugged Cedar’s body. She sighed, “Big Brother, I want to fall in love.” Isabelle wanted to experience how it felt like to have faith in love, to have an unforgettable love. She wanted to know what was better than love. She also wanted to experience what her mother had said. ‘I admire you, while you pamper me.’ Even so, she did not have someone she truly loved yet. That was what made her helpless. She did not even have a goal to work toward. As Isabelle moved around, her hair swayed with her movements and covered her eyes. Cedar hugged her shoulder with one of his arms and tidied her hair with his other hand. He helped to comb her hair to the back of her ears with his fingers. “Big Brother, why aren’t you saying anything? Perhaps, are you shy? Brother Lucas said that you’re always shy. Are you really shy, Big Brother?” That was when Cedar finally asked, “Why do you want to fall in love so much?” “Because I want to be in love. Do I need a reason? I’ll try and think of a reason for you then. Why do I want to fall in love?” Isabelle tilted her head as she thought about the question in confusion. She could not figure out why even after a long while. In the end, she blurted nonsense and said, “I want to be intimate with him. Can that be a reason? I can be intimate with my boyfriend once I have one, just like how Brother Ralph is with Sis Jade. They secretly kissed behind my back a few years ago! “Big Brother, Brother Ralph lost his first kiss when he was just so young, but Bella still has hers!”
