Blizzard, First Love and a Wife Who Finally Snaps novel Chapter 137

Mrs. Blackwell wanted to say more, but Isabel had heard enough.

Worried about old Mrs. Blackwell, she called Susan to check on her.

Susan said, "Don't worry, the old madam knows what's going on. She's well aware of your capabilities."

"That's good to hear."

After hanging up, Isabel continued to monitor the online storm.

So far, she hadn't received a single call or text from Adrian.

And on Selena's end, Adrian hadn't sicced the Blackwell Group's legal team on the issue either.

It was rather strange.

Given how much Adrian cared about Selena, he should have swooped in to protect her by now.

Or did he think this scandal wouldn't amount to much?

That as long as Selena had sufficient proof, Isabel would be permanently nailed to the pillar of shame for plagiarism, no matter what she did?

...

The public outcry raged for several days.

Even old Mr. Reed and Julian called to check in.

Dylan, who was deep in his own secret research, even used the internal secure line to call her.

But Isabel remained calmer than anyone.

She reassured them all, her finger hovering over Adrian's contact, debating whether to call.

He had been completely silent these past few days.

Selena hadn't come to the lab, so the two of them were most likely together.

Even if he was abroad and the connection was delayed.

Selena had already responded. He shouldn't be this quiet.

Finally, she decided to take the initiative.

This time, Adrian actually answered her call.

"Mr. Blackwell, you don't want your precious darling to be slandered, do you?"

"Divorce me, and I'll take full responsibility for this whole affair."
