At night, Fade washed up with Isabelle's service and was about to fall asleep.
However, Isabelle did not leave as usual. Instead, she lowered her head and stood by Fade's bed.
"Is there anything else?" Fade looked at Isabelle and asked.
Isabelle rubbed his legs and looked at Fade shyly. She whispered, "Mr. Chen, let me serve you tonight."
"Uh..." Fade frowned and then waved his hand. "Didn't I say that it's not necessary?"
Isabelle was a little anxious and said in a crying tone, "Mr. Chen, is it my fault that made you unhappy? Or, do you dislike people like me?"
Fade said, "That's not the reason. You are very beautiful."
"Then why did you..." Isabelle asked.
Fade was silent and did not answer.
Although Fade had saved Isabelle out of pity, because of the incident of the embroidery ball throwing, Fade had a vague bad impression of Isabelle, therefore he had been indifferent to her since he brought her back.
Isabelle was smart. She saw the displeasure in Fade's eyes and then knelt down in front of Fade.
"Mr. Chen, I'm sorry. Please punish me."
"What are you doing? I did not say I would punish you! " Fade said.
Isabelle whispered, "Mr. Chen, a few days ago, I had deliberately thrown that embroidery ball to you and caused you trouble. You can punish me however you want."
Isabelle took the initiative to talk about the incident, which surprised Fade a little.
Then, he waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. It's just a small matter. I did not take it to heart."
Isabelle was very smart. Although Fade said he was fine, she could see that Fade was a little dissatisfied with her because of this matter.
Therefore, Isabelle hurriedly explained, "Mr. Chen, I'm really sorry. I had no choice but to beg for a way out. So..."
Then, Isabelle told Fade the whole story.
Isabelle's father, King Peyton, was found to have committed treason. In fact, it was an unjust case. Peyton was framed, and the so-called evidence of treason was also concocted by the other party.
Isabelle had tried hard to find this kind of evidence. She wanted to reverse the verdict for her father, and even came to the imperial city to ask her uncle, King Anroe, for help.
However, in the end, Peyton was investigated and executed for treason. Isabelle was then sold to the brothel.
It was not until then that Isabelle realized that this matter was probably deliberately arranged by someone with ulterior motives. As for whether King Anroe knew of the inside story or not, it was no longer important.
The important thing is that King Anroe could sleep more peacefully without King Peyton, who was a threat to him.
Therefore, after thinking it through, Isabelle had tried to commit suicide several times, but she was stopped.
It was not until some time ago that she learned that she would be regarded as a courtesan and would be auctioned to the man who offered the highest price.
At that moment, Isabelle was in despair. She did not want to be humiliated, and she did not want to live like this in the world.
Therefore, she was ready to jump off the Yellow Warbler Tower on the day of the auction and end her life.
However, just as she was ready to die, a subordinate of her father told her that a group of big shots had come to the imperial city. These people were even more powerful than King An roe.
The leader of this group was called the Prince, and the rest were oracles. If Isabelle could get their help, she might have a chance to survive.
Therefore, Isabelle secretly learned some information about the oracles.
She had already made up her mind. If she could meet the oracles that day, she would find a way to ask him for help. If she could not meet an oracle, she would jump from the tower, as per her original plan.
Fortunately, Isabelle met Fade, who was on duty that day, and the following things happened.
