Chapter 89

Michael's words in their wedding room echoed in her mind.

Not long after she got married, Daniel mentioned that he wanted her and Michael to have a child.

At that time, she still had feelings for Michael, and Daniel's illness wasn't that severe yet. She could easily brush it off with an excuse.

But now Daniel was in the hospital, his health deteriorating, and his greatest wish was to see Isabella's child. So Isabella had to consider this.

Michael had been making love to her frequently these past few days. What if she got pregnant?

Actually, it didn't matter who the father was; she just wanted the child.

If she got pregnant this time, it would satisfy her urgent desire to have a child and save her the trouble of finding someone else.

But this child would be a Brown.

But this child would be a Brown. Michael alone was enough to give her a headache, let alone Aiden, who cherished her the most in the Brown Family.

If Aiden found out she had a Brown Family child, he definitely wouldn't let her go easily.

She picked up the medicine and then put it down. Isabella finally made a decision in her heart.

If she really had a child, she could secretly give birth to it without anyone knowing, so Michael wouldn't be able to find her.

That way, she could also give Daniel an explanation.

But thinking about why she sought out Michael last night made Isabella furious.

Michael's attitude yesterday was very clear. Bianca was in his hands, but he wouldn't release her. Nor would he hand Bianca over to her.

Thinking of this, Isabella made a call and instructed her people to continue searching for Bianca's whereabouts in Evergreen City.

Bianca was in Michael's hands; she didn't believe she couldn't find her.

But what Isabella didn't expect was that after several days, no matter how her people searched, Bianca seemed to have vanished from Evergreen City.

Isabella was very angry. She knew the problem lay with Michael, but she couldn't do anything about it.

Just thinking about it, he had a hundred ways to prevent her from finding anyone.

While Isabella was feeling distressed, Olivia called.

It was as if she knew how Isabella was feeling, inviting her out to have fun. "Isabella, there's a great movie coming out recently. Let's go watch it tomorrow night, okay?"

Before Isabella could speak, she heard Olivia deliberately lower her voice. "It's the latest show, and there are lots of handsome guys around. You'll be satisfied."

Hearing this, Isabella's mouth twitched. "Those handsome guys must go with their girl friends at this time. We'll be the only two single people there."

Olivia was stunned for a moment, feeling very innocent. "But the movie is really good, and it's the premiere. It stars my favorite actor, and I promised him I'd support this film."

Towards the end, Olivia started to act coquettishly towards Isabella. "Please, Isabella, come with me. If I go alone, everyone will laugh at me."

Isabella couldn't resist her coquettishness. Since she had nothing else to do, she said, "Fine, I'll go, but I'll wear my usual clothes and won't put on makeup."

That night at the club had really left a shadow on her.

Whenever she thought of that makeup, she remembered the night she made love with Michael in the hotel.

"No problem, you are stunning even without makeup." As long as she could get Isabella out, Olivia was more than happy.

The next day, Isabella arrived at the cinema Olivia mentioned twenty minutes early.

She wore a white coat and casual pants, her hair simply tied back, and a baseball cap, looking like a college girl sneaking out to have fun.

But Isabella waited at the entrance for a long time, and Olivia, who had invited her out, was nowhere to be seen.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Isabella called Olivia in exasperation. "Olivia, what are you up to? Didn't we agree to watch the movie together? It's about to start, where are you?"

"I'm almost there, Isabella, don't worry." Olivia was panting, running as she apologized to Isabella. "I just put on some makeup and lost track of time. Believe me, it wasn't on purpose."

Listening to the voice on the phone, it seemed like Olivia was right behind her.

She instinctively turned around, and sure enough, Olivia was not far away, running towards her and waving. "Isabella, I'm here!"

Seeing she really arrived, Isabella didn't even know where to start scolding her.

Hanging up, Olivia immediately ran over and linked arms with Isabella, looking up with her delicate face. "I wasn't lying, see, I made it just in time."

Isabella said, "Yes, if you were a few minutes later, the movie would have started, and we'd go straight to the best part."

Olivia, knowing she was in the wrong, blinked her eyes, seeking forgiveness.

Isabella smiled, pulling her along. "Let's go in, or we'll really be late."

But Olivia noticed something was off and asked as they walked, "Isabella, do you have a cold? Why are you all bundled up? This isn't like your style!"

Indeed, she had deliberately dressed like this, but she couldn't let Olivia find out.

That lunatic Michael, who knew what was wrong with him, had bitten and marked her all over.

Not only did he leave marks all over her, but these marks seemed to linger on her body for days.

Even wearing high-necked clothes couldn't cover them.

To prevent Olivia from noticing, she had to wear a scarf. After all, it was a movie theater at night, so she might not be discovered.

The mask was because she hadn't put on makeup, so she decided to cover her face.

Olivia couldn't keep a secret, and she was really afraid she'd tell Thomas.

"No. It's just that the news online has been too crazy lately, and people keep following me. This is more convenient. Let's go in." Isabella hurriedly pulled her towards the entrance, but this only piqued Olivia's curiosity.

"No way, you usually don't care about reporters. Why are you hiding today, and wearing a scarf that doesn't match your style? This looks so strange."

"Don't..." Isabella quickly covered her neck, but it was too late. Olivia had already grabbed the other end of the scarf and with a gentle tug, it fell off.

"Olivia, what are you doing!" Isabella's voice suddenly rose in panic, and she quickly re-tied the scarf around her neck before Olivia could react.

But she didn't know that Olivia had already seen the scene just now.

The area near her collarbone was covered in love marks.

"Isabella, are you hiding something from me?" Olivia squinted her eyes, her gaze fixed on Isabella's neck, pretending to be unaware.
