Chapter 75 An Embarrassing Situation
Christina concealed her joy and approached Rebecca. She supported her while looking somewhat regretful and said, “Mom, don’t be angry.
In her tone, there was a hint of relief.
With Christina’s assistance, Rebecca came to stand in front of Isabella. This was the moment when
Yovan wished he could disappear. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
What should he do now? Cedric had left, leaving him to deal with this hot potato.
“Get out of here, right now!”
Rebecca’s tone was far less patient when addressing Isabella. She no longer needed to maintain a façade.
of tolerance, as she had with Natalie.
Natalie had been the Johnson family’s young mistress for many years. Even though Rebecca didn’t like
her, she had to be somewhat polite in front of so many guests.
However, when it came to Isabella, there was no need for any such courtesy.
Just a short while ago, Rebecca had to keep her composure with Natalie, but now she could vent all her
frustration on Isabella.
“Mr. Johnson has already left, yet she still dares to show her face here?”
People at the event began focusing their attention on Isabella in the absence of Natalie.
Isabella’s complexion, which was already not great, turned even paler. She couldn’t help but shiver. She had come here today with the intention of making Natalie uncomfortable.
After all…
She believed that once she appeared here, Cedric would remain by her side, which would make Natalie realize her lower status.
However, she underestimated human nature. She thought that at a Johnson family event, no one would dare to openly discuss matters, but she neglected one crucial point: the people in attendance were affluent and influential
Who would be afraid of whom?
Even if they didn’t dare to comment openly, the hushed conversations and the disdainful looks from the crowd were bold enough:

Even though her eyes were blindfolded, she could still sense the contempt and even disgust in those gazes. Especially now, with Cedric absent, she felt like a sitting duck at the Johnson family’s event.
“Why aren’t you moving? Hurry up and get her out of here!‘ Rebecca’s voice grew louder as she noticed
Yuvan standing there, causing everyone to feel uncomfortable.
Isabella’s pale face now lacked any trace of color, appearing even more pitiable yet irritating.
Yuvan nodded vigorously. “Yes, of course!”
Then, he turned to Isabella and said, “Ms. Morgan, let me take you back.
At this point, Yuvan had no choice but to escort Isabella away from the manor.
Cedric had sent Yuvan to escort Isabella, and Yuvan couldn’t fathom what his boss was thinking.
He couldn’t understand.
How was Isabella deemed suitable to attend such a grand event today?!
Isabella nodded with an agreeable demeanor, appearing considerate and eliciting even more sympathy.
It was evident that Yuvan was standing on Isabella’s side at this moment. He felt that these people had gone too far.
How could they be so cruel to someone who couldn’t walk and was blind?!
Yuvan escorted Isabella away, restoring order at the banquet.
However, the embarrassment on Rebecca and Elizabeth’s faces was hard to conceal.
Though everyone maintained a hushed tone, their exchanged glances revealed their unease.
Natalie left the banquet and found Karina waiting outside. She was aware that tonight would not be a simple event, given Natalie’s current attitude toward Cedric,
The banquet was bound to be problematic.
As Natalie got into her Bugatti, she saw Yuvan pushing Isabella out. At that moment, she had a strong urge to rip off the white cloth covering Isabella’s eyes to show everyone how she was pretending.
But she remembered that she was about to divorce Cedric, so she let it go.
sabella had nothing to do with her from now on!
In the future, Isabella’s role in Cedric’s life would be of greater concern to Rebecca.
“Madam!”
Isabella had said something to Yuvan, and he wheeled her over to Natalie,
When Yuvan saw Natalie’s Bugatti, he was stunned!
Led “What is it?”
Natalie asked, “What is it?”
“Ms. Morgan wants to speak to you,” Yuvan nervously said to Natalie.
Observing Yuvan’s demeanor, Natalie smiled mockingly. She had a petite face, but it radiated an aura of
unassailable dominance.
Yuvan hesitated for a moment and lowered his head.
Natalie said, “Sure, why not?”
She was also curious about what Isabella might want to tell her at this moment.
She stepped out of her car and walked toward the wheelchair. Isabella sat in the wheelchair, forming a
sharp contrast with Natalie in terms of temperament.
Natalie, with her petite frame, stood there like a queen, while Isabella looked like a pitiable figure, treated
as an enemy, like a speck of dust.
Natalie asked, “What else do you want to say to me?”
Isabella turned in her direction, her face still somewhat pale, and said, “I never expected you to have such
means!”
Tonight’s occasion not only did not embarrass Natalie, but it was Isabella who managed to make everyone in the Johnson family feel uncomfortable.
Such audacity was not something just anyone possessed.
Natalie smiled and retorted, “Means? Compared to you, I’m far inferior!”
Wasn’t that true?
The ability to pretend to be blind was not something everyone could do. It was this woman who dared to fool Cedric so brazenly.
Isabella’s l*ps also curled, but Natalie could clearly see the hate in her expression! Even though her eyes Were covered, it was clear that she despised Natalie at this moment.

But what right did Isabella have to hate her?
Just now, she had brought it upon herself. If she could attend the banquet, she should have been prepared to face the consequences.
“Natalie, our story has only just begun,” Isabella suddenly said.
Natalie replied, “I’m going to divorce him. That’s the end of it.”
Isabella retorted, “End? You wish
Her tone was filled with resentment.
Natalie paused, thinking the disdain she had seen on Isabella’s face earlier was a misconception. However, the words Isabella spoke now made it clear that she harbored strong resentment toward her.
“I will make sure you go to hell. You may look as radiant as the sun today, but I’ll ensure your fall will be as
miserable as possible!” Isabella hissed through clenched teeth.
Her face was now contorted into an ugly sight.
Natalie stood still, inexplicably listening to Isabella’s words. She still believed that the hatred Isabella
harbored resulted from her embarrassment at the banquet tonight.
Little did she know that their animosity was just beginning.
“Is that so? Let’s see who ends up in hell first, then. Oh, by the way, he doesn’t like being deceived,” Natalie quipped before leaving.
At that moment, Natalie’s petite figure exuded a sense of determination. It gave Isabella the feeling that if she wanted to drag Natalie to hell, Natalie would stand on the clouds and watch her struggle in the
mud.
The feeling was too overwhelming.
Seeing that Natalie and Isabella had finished talking. Yuvan returned to Isabella’s side.
He hesitantly looked at Natalie and finally said, “Madam, Ms. Morgan is really in a pitiable state now!”
He implied that Natalie had been too cruel, and under no circumstances should she have humiliated Isabella at the banquet
Natalie shot him a sharp look.
Yuvan was taller than her, and she needed to look up to see his face.
Even so, Yuvan trembled at her gaze and quickly said, “I apologize! I spoke out of turn!”
