Their Bundle Of Joy novel Chapter 57

"Don't worry, even if I win, Elliot will give you more money, right?" Aiden faintly looked to Elliot.

"Um, um, Lara, my grandfather and parents said, they’d like to meet you soon, you should get ready.” After a slight hesitation, Elliot said to Lara.

After he finished saying this, Samuel and Isaac both gave him a thumbs up; this was the best way to calm Aiden down.

Elliot was in a worse predicament than Aiden.

He was forced to get engaged.

As for Aiden, it was just a woman he dumped that was kissing another man.

Aiden dumped her anyway, so it meant nothing.

It was a pity for Isabel, though. She looked decent, and they all thought she had something special with Aiden. No one knew that Aiden would change in a split second and rejected Isabel.

"Oh, which day? Just call Ewan to prepare a gift." Aiden casually played and said.

"Can we pick something from your Treasure house?"

"Anything from the first floor is fine, but nothing from the second floor." Aiden said generously.

"What Treasure house?" Lara was confused and did not understand what Elliot and Aiden were talking about.

"When the time comes, just follow me." Elliot was excited and eager to pick a few gifts. Aiden's treasures were almost all one-of-a-kind and quite valuable. He might as well help himself to some.

They played two more rounds, and both Aiden and Lara won again.

Just as Samuel and Isaac couldn’t sit still anymore, Ewan’s call finally came, "Aiden, I can’t find that IP. They were posted using a cellphone’s data. After sending photos, the phone turns off."

Aiden's face sank, "Did you delete it?"

"Deleted." Ewan would definitely not make a mistake at this time.

Aiden pushed the mahjong tiles away, "I'm sleepy. It’s late, let’s call it a night."

That night, Aiden slept in the presidential suite on the top floor of the Grand Hyatt.

He went to sleep after he bathed, and Isabel flashed across his mind twice.

To think she actually went on a date with Owen after he took Daniel.

She was flirting with a man every second.

It seemed that something must have been wrong with the investigation data Ewan gave him about Isabel.

He could only believe what he saw with his own eyes.

When he saw Isabel here for the first time, the red marks on that body surfaced to mind again.

That night, Aiden didn't fall asleep until dawn.

That same night, Isabel, who was drunk, had no dreams, and she woke up naturally.

As soon as she opened her eyes, it was already past eight in the morning.

She turned on her phone; countless missed calls.

She was most concerned with Daniel's text messages.

"Mommy, I'm at school. Uncle Howard sent me to school. Everything is fine, rest assured."

Upon seeing this, Isabel sighed in relief.

It seemed that Adam treated Daniel quite well.

And the child was very happy.

Looking at the missed calls, there were mainly two: One from Celia, one from Abby.

Isabel ignored Abby and called Celia.

"Celia, it’s so early in the morning, what’s up?"

"Isabel, hurry and get in our classmate chat group; they’re all discussing whether your current boyfriend is Aiden or Owen. What’s the matter with you? Why are you dating Owen? Didn’t you say he was just your senior classmate?"

"I'll talk later." Isabel hung up and opened the chat group.

Hundreds of messages; she scrolled to the earliest messages from last night.

When she saw the photo of Owen kissing her, she felt as if her brain was about to explode.

She couldn’t possibly clear her name now even if she jumped into a river.

Owen, he ruined her.

But it was so late last night. There was no one near the apartment, and she didn’t note anyone taking pictures. Getting photographed was odd; it was even odder to have it posted on a forum.

This was clearly preplanned.

She looked at each of her classmates’ messages discussing the issue of her boyfriend. She felt as if she was in a tornado.

Isabel took the day off.

She did not attend class.

She just laid in bed in a daze.

Stared at the ceiling blankly.

Her classmates saw the photo of Owen kissing her, so Aiden must have seen it too.

Just thinking of this, she felt sick to her stomach.

Although Aiden already had Amanda, as she recalled what Aiden said to her last night, it seemed that he didn't care about Amanda.

He seemed to care more about her and Daniel.

Isabel tossed and turned; she did not feel at ease even while lying down.

The phone rang again.

Seeing that it was Abby calling, she just hung up.

She originally blacklisted Abby.

But the last time Henry saw her, he took her phone and removed Abby from her blacklist. He said that they were sisters, and even if they did not get along, they couldn't change the fact that they were blood-related family.

Isabel hung up, but Abby called again.

Isabel picked it up obnoxiously, "Abby, what do you want?" Last time at the Royal Restaurant, if Abby didn't mess with her, neither would she have a mess with this supposed sister.

She just wished for Abby to stay away from her.

"Isabel, I miss you; let's eat together, okay?" Abby said softly on the phone.

Isabel's body shuddered; she heard a gentle voice, but the hair on her spine stood up.

Abby has never spoken to her in such a gentle manner, "I'm in class, maybe another day."

Isabel flatly refused.

"I'm downstairs in front of your apartment. I went to look for you at class, your classmate said that you took the day off. Isabel, let’s eat lunch together."

Isabel jumped out of bed and rushed to the balcony. Sure enough, she saw Abby standing in front of the apartment, and Abby was also looking up at her direction.

In an instant, Abby saw her, "Isabel, I'm here; I'm waiting for you, come down right away."

Abby waved at Isabel.

Isabel was really speechless.

Something must be wrong with Abby for her to greet Isabel in such gentleness and kindness.

It seemed wrong to constantly refuse someone displaying goodwill, and there were many strangers passing by. If she still refused, it seemed like a bad idea.

No matter what, their surnames were both White.

After she changed her clothes, Isabel went downstairs.

Abby greeted her, "Isabel, what happened last time was my fault, I’m sorry."

Abby seemed to apologize very sincerely.

But Isabel felt that Abby had another intention, and she did not feel at ease.

"Just say what you’re here for, I have to meet someone later."

"Who do you have to meet? Is it Celia or Owen; can I join?" Abby asked in a gentle tone, as if she insisted to have lunch with Isabel.

Isabel’s headache was feeling worse.
