The Billionaire's Kick Ass Wife (Isabella Thompson) novel Chapter 25

Chapter 25 Isabel Was Still Alive

“Mr. Lockwood, are you really going to marry Miss Thompson?” asked Alan curiously. Alan and Martin had always been curious about that matter.

Draxton glanced at them and replied nonchalantly, “Do I look like I’m joking?”

Mr. Lockwood certainly looked serious about it.

Since Alan and Martin knew that Mr. Lockwood always meant what he said, they could not help but feel astonished at his decision to marry the woman.

Draxton looked at them and said, “Isabella is not as bad as you think.”

“Mr. Lockwood, please forgive me for being frank. But very few women in the world are worthy of you, and Isabella certainly is not one of those women.”

Draxton shook his head in response as he said, “That’s just your opinion. It isn’t mine.”

Seeing that they wanted to continue with the topic, Draxton cut the conversation short and said, “Enough. You may get back to work.”

Alan and Martin looked at each other and turned to leave.

Meanwhile, in the room, Isabella was chatting with Jocelyn.

In the video call, Jocelyn’s face was filled with complete shock.

“Bella, can you say that again? Where are you now?”

Jocelyn could not believe her ears at all.

Isabella said again, “Master Grey, you heard me right. I’m really at Draxton’s place at Northernville Manor.”

“This is such mind-blowing news, Bella.”

Jocelyn could not hold back her shock.

“He wants to marry me and make Ricky his heir,” said Isabella, with a slight laugh, dropping yet another bomb on Jocelyn.

Jocelyn went quiet for a couple of seconds. Then, she asked, “Did you use artificially-cultured poisonous bugs on him?”

Isabella replied, “I would never dare to do that to him. The man can’t be controlled in that way.”

“Does this mean he fell for your charm? Well done! Before he met you, he hated you to the core. But the moment he sees you, he wants to marry you and take you home for himself.”

Isabella narrowed her eyes. “Perhaps he was really smitten by my charm.”

Once again, Jocelyn went quiet before she continued, “Bella, you know that this is no laughing matter, right? Have you made up your mind? Are you sure about this?”

Isabella sighed and replied in a solemn tone, “Master Grey, I have no choice either. Rather than taking him on by using brute force, this situation is already much better than I could ever imagine.”

Jocelyn didn’t say anything for a moment, but then, she sneered, “Well, you certainly make a good point.”

She continued, “I don’t want you or Ricky to get bullied. If anyone tries to touch you, you can always come back.

We might not want trouble in Lotus Village, but it doesn’t mean that we are cowards. If anyone touches you and crosses the line, they are not going to like what they see.”

Isabella narrowed her eyes. “Uh-huh. I know.”

After ending the video call with Jocelyn, Isabella hugged Ricky and kissed his cute little face. She asked, “Ricky Baby, did you have fun recently?”

Ricky blinked his cute big eyes and looked at his mother helplessly as if he had no strength. “Uh-huh. I sure

did.”

Isabella hugged Ricky as they curled up in bed together. Soon, they were sound asleep.

When Draxton entered the roorn, he saw Isabella and Ricky sleeping together.

He walked up to the bedside and sat down. As he quietly looked at their sleeping faces, the expression on his face softened gradually..

Since Freddie Lockwood offended the chieftain, he was surely handled by him.

Freddie and his son were already sent to jail.

In fact, Freddie was the key personnel at Lockwood Group, but unexpectedly, his days were over.

His deeds combined with his son’s had brought widespread indignation. Also, they were the scourge of the

company.

Their imprisonment was a signal of more to come The next day after putting them in jail, people from several upper management of Lockwood Group were taken care of one after another.
