Chapter 82

It turned out that they had been stopped outside the door!

It was obvious that Matthew looked down on Charlie, so he had only given him the address of the mansion area without telling him the house number.

"My mistake." Matthew looked apologetic. "I only sent you a location. I forgot to tell you the house number."

Charlie waved his hand. "It's okay, we just arrived not long ago anyway. We'll just go in together with you."

Matthew nodded. "Shall we go in together?"

"Sure." Charlie nodded and bowed. "You go in first, we'll follow behind you."

Isabella glanced around as the car drove into the mansion area.

"What are you looking for?" Matthew's voice came faintly.

At this moment, the car had entered the mansion area covered by greenery on both sides of the road.

Isabella withdrew her gaze. "Nothing."

Matthew drove the car skillfully. "Oh, I almost forgot to tell you that my brother will also be here today."

Isabella was startled. "Mr. Landon?"

"Yes." Matthew raised his eyes and looked at her through the rearview mirror. "So you better not say that the child is not mine. Don't make him suspicious."

Isabella bit her lip in silence.

She originally intended to explain things to Charles and Emma, but if Sebastian was present, she really couldn't speak her mind!

Since they were all here, she thought it was useless to dwell on it. She had to take it step by step.

When they arrived at the Landon family house, Isabella sent the location to Samantha, specifically marking the house number of the Landon family home, fearing that Samantha might not be able to get in later.

Samantha didn't reply.

lsabella didn't know if Samantha would come.

"Bella." Nina walked over.

Isabella quickly put away her phone and put a smile on her face. "Sis."

Nina saw everything. "Bella, when did you start dating and why didn't I know anything about it?"

"We've been dating for over a year," Isabella said. "But we broke up in between."

"Are you back together now?" Nina asked. "What caused the breakup in the middle, and how did you reconcile? You usually can't hide anything from me, but you managed to keep your boyfriend a secret for over a year!"

Isabella was about to reply when a black car drove into the Landon family's courtyard and stopped not far from them.

Isabella's heart sank when she saw the car.

She thought Matthew had just teasing been her. She hadn't expected Sebastian to actually come!

And Sebastian wasn't alone. He was accompanied by Vanessa and Zoe.

"Zoe?" Nina was slightly surprised when she saw Zoe.

Isabella and Nina walked up together.

"Nina, Bella, what a coincidence, you're here too?" Zoe was very happy when she saw Isabella and Nina. Vanessa had been supporting her, but she let go of Vanessa's hand and held Isabella and Nina with both hands.

Vanessa's expression changed slightly, but she quickly put on a smile. She stood behind Zoe and said, "Grandma, you don't know it yet, but Isabella is Matthew's girlfriend."

"What?!" Zoe was shocked and disbelieving. "When did this happen? why didn't I know anything?"

Nina smiled bitterly. "I was kept in the dark too."

"Sis." Isabella felt guilty.

Isabella hadn't intended to keep it a secret. She just wanted to wait until the relationship was stable before mentioning it. But before she could say anything, she had caught Matthew having sex with Samantha. At that time, Nina was having a hard time on a regular basis, and she didn't want to cause her more trouble because of that. Isabella just thought that she would never have anything to do with Matthew again.

She didn't know that Matthew would make things so complicated today. He hadn't even given her a chance to explain.

"Great!" Zoe smiled. "I really like Bella and I liked her from the first time we met. She's very pleasing to the eye. I once thought that if Bella could be my granddaughter-in-law, that would be great. Now my wish has finally come true."

As Zoe spoke, she subconsciously glanced at Sebastian. Zoe still had some regrets in her heart. She liked Bella and hoped Bella could be with Sebastian.

But fate was something that could not be resisted.

Sebastian now had Vanessa. Bella and Matthew were also a good match. That was satisfactory.

Vanessa smiled again. "Grandma, there's more happy news."

"What is it?"

Vanessa smiled and looked at Isabella.

For something like pregnancy, it would be more meaningful if Isabella said it herself.

At this moment, Emma and Matthew came out.

"Mom," Emma called out, then glanced at Sebastian. She warmly took Vanessa's hand. "Vanessa is here too."

Matthew then introduced everyone. "This is my grandma, my brother and Vanessa."

"We shouldn't stand around outside, everyone,. Tea and snacks are ready, so let's all go in and sit down." Emma took on the role of a gracious hostess and warmly invited everyone in.

As everyone walked toward the house, there was suddenly a rustling in the nearby bushes, and a person crawled out from inside like a monkey, quickly running to Zoe.

"Ah..." Since Zoe was older, she couldn't help but be frightened.

The sudden movement scared her. She grew pale.

Vanessa hurried forward to protect Zoe. Everyone stepped back and finally looked at the person who had crawled out.

It was a child, named Thomas Martinez, who was about seven or eight years old. He was pulling something out of the bushes at the moment, and he suddenly joyfully pulled out a large green caterpillar. Thomas lifted the caterpillar by its tail, and the caterpillar twisted into various shapes on his finger while he stared at it with shining eyes.

It was truly creepy, especially for someone like Isabella who was naturally afraid of soft-bodied creatures. Just a small insect was enough to make her scream for a long time, let alone a brightly colored large caterpillar.

But what Thomas did next was even more unsettling. He suddenly opened his mouth and threw the large caterpillar into it. As he chewed a few times with his cheeks bulging, it seemed like caterpillar juice was flowing from the corners of his mouth.

"Ew!" Isabella felt her stomach churning. She covered her mouth and dry heaved.

"Bella." Nina reached out to support her.

Matthew walked over, reached out to shield her, and handed Isabella a handkerchief to cover her mouth and nose. "Let me take you to the bathroom."

Nina let go. Matthew took Isabella's arm and led her into the house.

Nina frowned deeply when she saw that.

Isabella's stomach was churning badly. She vomited up her breakfast and a lot of bitter water.

Matthew stood by, frowning and patting her back to calm her, feeling extremely distressed.

After Isabella finished vomiting, he helped her to the sink to rinse her mouth and wash her hands.

"Sir." A servant brought a bowl of sugar water over.

"Give it to me." Matthew took it and blew on the edge before handing it to Isabella.
