Reclaiming the CEO's Heart novel Chapter 56

Chapter 56 May I Pursue You?

Layla realized that she had fallen into Isabella's trap. If she argued with Isabella, wouldn't that just reveal to everyone that she was the mistress and also indicate that Avery was Jacob's ex-wife?

No, she absolutely couldn't admit it.

Layla quickly eased her expression and gave Isabella a suggestive glare. "I am not angry. It's just that discussing these things in on such an occasion is inappropriate, isn't it?"

Isabella didn't care at all. On the contrary, she became even more arrogant. "The mistress doesn't even think it's inappropriate to seduce someone else's husband. What do I have to be afraid of? Miss White, you seem to be able to relate to this very well. Have you also been a mistress before?"

"Miss Thompson." Jacob's displeased voice sounded, and his pitch-black eyes were especially apathetic.

Isabella slightly restrained herself. "That's right. Miss White has a rich fiance like you. She wouldn't even pay attention to other men. If she were to seduce, she would only seduce you."

With these words, even the dumbest person could tell that Isabella and Layla were not on good terms. It was an indirect insult.

However, Andrew was keen enough to notice something. How did a big shot like Jacob know that Isabella was surnamed Thompson?

Avery wasn't as broad-minded as everyone thought. She just admired Isabella's audacity because Isabella even dared to mock Jacob.

She was very familiar with Jacob's personality. When he was protecting someone, he wouldn't allow any annoying presence.

So Avery quickly changed the topic. "Anyway, everything is in the past. The dead can't come back to life, so please don't keep asking. A man who betrays his marriage is not worth mentioning."

Avery's words brought the focus back, and it was not appropriate for everyone to continue asking. Isabella almost clapped her hands in approval. This counterattack was brilliant!
