Chapter 134

"Vanessa is such a flamboyant person. She would prefer to make the whole world  know about her relationship with Sebastian. If she was really pregnant, how could she not post a status about it? And how could she not tell Sebastian? If she really had a child, she would have announced it to the world by now, right?"

Kelsey's analysis undeniably made some sense.

But Isabella felt that Vanessa wouldn't go that far.

In Isabella's opinion, Vanessa was Sebastian's fiancée and had been with him for over a year. Since Sebastian had a strong sexual appetite, they were likely intimate quite often.

It wouldn't be too hard for her to get pregnant.

"Anyway, I think there's something fishy about this. Sebastian should look into it!"

Kelsey who was impatient, was about to call Sebastian again as she spoke.

This time, Isabella quickly stopped her. "Don't do that."

Kelsey was puzzled and said,"Isabella, don't you want to know if Vanessa is really pregnant?"

Isabella shook her head and said, "I don't want to."

"Why not?"

Isabella paused for a moment and then said, "Between Mr. Landon and me, it's purely a debt relationship. I don't want to get too involved with him and Vanessa. Whether Vanessa is pregnant or not has nothing to do with me."

"Aren't you afraid that if she is pregnant, Sebastian will leave you?"

Isabella froze.

She asked herself this question in her heart.

Then Isabella shook her head, her eyes showing determination. "No. There are so many men in this world. He's not the only option."

Kelsey was slightly surprised and then gave Isabella a thumbs-up.

Outside the door, Sebastian stood quietly.

He had heard everything Isabella had just said, and his long eyebrows gradually furrowed.

On the way back, Sebastian had a sullen face, a cold aura surrounding him.

Isabella guessed that Sebastian was probably worried about Vanessa being pregnant.

She thought, 'After all, the child in Vanessa's belly is his legitimate child.'

Isabella touched her own belly.

'The child in myr belly is also Sebastian's.

'But this child is destined to be hidden in the shadows like that night,' Isabella thought.

The car drove all the way back to Oceancloud Manor.

Once inside, Sebastian pulled Isabella onto the couch, pressing down on her and kissing her fiercely.

His kiss was different from the gentle and delicate ones during the day. But it was now filled with a kind of intensity that made Isabella almost unable to breathe.

When she was about to suffocate, Sebastian finally let her go.

Just as she caught her breath, he covered her again, sealing her lips.

They moved from the living room to the bedroom.

Half awake, Sebastian held Isabella in his arms, biting her ear and saying fiercely, "Isabella,  I'll make sure you can't live without me in the future!"

The next morning, when Isabella opened her eyes, she found herself alone in the room.

The whole villa was very quiet.

The doorbell rang.

Isabella went to open the door and found Jack standing outside.

Jack was momentarily surprised to see her, then quickly understood and handed her a bag. "Mr. Landon asked me to bring you breakfast."

He then handed her a set of car keys. "After eating the breakfast, Mr.Landon wants you to drive to the company."

Isabella looked at the new white car parked in the yard.

It was a small, brand-new model, without a license plate, just a temporary tag on the window.

In Isabella's memory, Sebastian's cars were all black, but this white one was quite unique.

"This car?"

Jack responded, "Mr. Landon just bought it. The license plate is still being processed."

Isabella was speechless.

She remembered that Sebastian had said yesterday that if she didn't like any of the cars in his garage, he would buy her a new one.

She hadn't said she didn't like them, yet he had already bought her a new car.

While having breakfast, Isabella checked online and found out that the car was a new model released just last month.

Though small, it was ridiculously expensive.

Isabella counted and found it costed one hundred thousand dollars.

It was such an expensive car. Isabella didn't dare to drive it.

After breakfast, she took a car to the Landon Group.

When Laura and the others saw her, their eyes widened in surprise.

Only Kelsey warmly linked arms with her.

Isabella's old desk was still in Sebastian's office, unchanged from when she left.

Sebastian was not in the office at this moment, and no one assigned her any tasks.

Feeling bored, Isabella casually flipped through the documents on her desk.

Suddenly, the office door was pushed open.

Isabella looked up and saw Vanessa walking in.

She paused and stood up.

Vanessa walked straight over and, without saying a word, slapped Isabella hard.

Isabella couldn't dodge in time and was hit squarely, losing her balance and falling into the chair.

"Isabella, have you forgotten what you promised me before?" Vanessa glared coldly at Isabella, her eyes almost spitting fire.

And she continued,"I showed you respect, but you chose to be shameless. Don't blame me for this!"

After saying that, Vanessa walked to the office door, opened it, and started shouting.

"Isabella, you schemed to get into Mr. Landon's bed. Now that you've succeeded, are you proud of yourself?"

"I pitied you before and forgave you once. Why can't you respect yourself and stop trying to ruin my relationship with Mr. Landon?"

"Don't you feel ashamed being a mistress?"

Vanessa's shouting echoed throughout the office.

Isabella sat in her chair, staring blankly at the scene, completely unresponsive.

Isabella wanted to say something, but when she opened her mouth, she found she had nothing to say.

'Vanessa is Sebastian's fiancée.

'No matter how others look at it, I am indeed the mistress ruining their relationship.

'A mistress doesnot deserve respect.

'If I were a bystander, I would also despise someone like me!' Isabella thought.

"Mr. Landon!" Laura's voice interrupted Vanessa in time.

Everyone turned and saw Sebastian stepping out of the elevator.

He walked quickly, his face dark. It seemed that he rushed back from the meeting after hearing about the incident in the office .

His gaze swept across the office, and all the gossipers backed off.

"Sebastian." Vanessa wiped away her tears and reached out to grab his arm.

Sebastian avoided her expressionlessly and walked into the office.

Isabella was still sitting there, half of her face swollen, but her eyes remained clear.

Sebastian's heart tightened. He strode over to her and said, "She hit you, and you didn't know to dodge?"

His tone was more pained than reproachful.

Isabella said nothing.

From her perspective, she was indeed in the wrong.

She had done something that couldn't be exposed to light.

Of course, Sebastian had forced her into this too.

"Jack, call Marvin over!" Sebastian looked at her but was giving orders to Jack outside.

"Yes, Mr. Landon," Jack responded and went to make the call.

Vanessa stood at the door, her eyes filled with tears as she looked at Sebastian's back. She said, "Sebastian, you can't treat me like this. I am your fiancée. You promised to take responsibility for me. You can't go back on your word!"

Sebastian turned, his cold, deep gaze falling on Vanessa's face. He said, "I heard you're pregnant?"

Vanessa was stunned.
