Blizzard, First Love and a Wife Who Finally Snaps novel Chapter 140

Her phone started ringing in her pocket.

"..."

Isabel was speechless. He just raised his glass to her. "Babe~

"..."

Isabel walked over and sat down, but not before asking one of the women, "Excuse me, who is this gentleman to you?"

Julian didn't speak, just watched Isabel with an amused smile.

Isabel was currently public enemy number one online; her photos were everywhere.

So she had disguised herself.

A short purple wig, heavy black glasses, and an outfit completely unlike her usual style—a tank top and shorts.

She was also wearing heavy makeup.

Anyone who didn't know her well wouldn't recognize her at first glance.

"I'm his fiancée. Do you want to be caught cheating with him, or would you rather leave on your own?"

Soon, the crowd around Julian vanished.

Julian laughed. "Sweetheart, this disguise of yours is a bit like an ostrich burying its head in the sand."

He added, "If you're so afraid of being recognized, you shouldn't have asked to meet me at a crowded place like a bar."

Isabel was disguised, but she hadn't intended to be completely invisible.

"I have my reasons."

She sat on a barstool, ordered a strong drink, and asked, "The thing I needed you to investigate—can you tell me now?"

Julian replied, "I already told you. Marry me, and I'll tell you. It's a huge secret. You have to be ready to live and die with me."

Isabel smirked. "Have you been in Aurelia City so long you've never heard the saying 'when disaster strikes, couples fly their separate ways'?"

"I've heard it," Julian said, taking a sip of his drink. "But that's not a possibility with me. If we die, we die together. So, sweetheart, you'd better think carefully."

"There's nothing to think about." Isabel clinked her glass against his. "I will definitely get this divorce."

They spent the rest of the time drinking.

Isabel's voice rose. "For his precious darling, he'll do anything! He didn't even bother to ask if that stuff was important to me before he unilaterally erased it!"

A small crowd was starting to gather around them.

People were taking out their phones to record.

Julian couldn't risk being seen online. He was about to scoop her up and leave.

Suddenly, a group of bodyguards appeared, pushing the crowd back and taking Isabel from his arms.

Julian watched the tall, cold figure walk away with her, a cryptic smile on his face.

Then he instructed his own men to make sure all the videos and photos were deleted.

Once he was certain everything was clear.

He went to Evergreen Ridge Estate, using the key he had swiped from Isabel.

Without a shred of guilt, he let himself in as if it were his own home.

He casually took a shower and made himself comfortable.
