Blizzard, First Love and a Wife Who Finally Snaps novel Chapter 212

"I like you too," Isabel said, her lips curving into a smile. "But when we're out, my name is Isabel Ashford. You have to remember that, don't get it wrong."

Edmund replied, "I'll remember."

When Isabel was in the lab, she never left for lunch.

Martha would bring her meals.

It was only because she had been sick the past couple of days, and with Evelyn also being there, that she had gone out to cook for herself.

Actually, Julian had hired other staff as well.

But today, buoyed by the excitement of Edmund's talent, she completely forgot about lunch.

She also forgot that Martha was still on leave.

It was Evelyn who finally left the lab to get them some food.

And that's when she saw the standoff still happening at the villa's entrance.

"How did he get in?"

Julian had been there all morning. Tired of squatting, he had found a rock nearby and was sitting on it casually.

He didn't seem too bothered.

He couldn't just kick Oliver out, but he wasn't about to let him in either.

"Walked in, I suppose."

Evelyn laughed at him without mercy. "Mr. Reed, is this the best you can do?"

Julian was annoyed too.

Adrian was already back in his own country. If he threw Oliver out and something happened, it would be a huge mess.

But not throwing him out was irritating to look at.

"Why don't you just call the police?"

At this, Julian scoffed. "You think Adrian didn't think of that?"

He gritted his teeth. "If I hand him over to the police, he'll start screaming that he's looking for his mother, and they'll have to investigate."

"So let them investigate. It's not like Isabel is here anyway."

Julian was starting to lose his patience with Evelyn.

How could she be so sharp one moment and so dense the next?

He took a breath. "And what do we do if they want a DNA test?"

Although he didn't know how Isabel had managed to fool Catherine,

he had a feeling it wasn't by any conventional means.
