Revenge After rebirth novel Chapter 13

Isabel smiled as she adjusted the shawl on her shoulder. She lightly tapped the young girl's forehead. "Don't believe everything you hear. Andy and I grew up together. Only I know what kind of person he is.

"Alright. We got everything we needed. Let's head back."

Mayra tried to ignore the conversation, but she still ended up overhearing Isabel's words.

No wonder Anderson cared so much about Isabel in her past life. It was because they were childhood friends. Compared to Isabel, she didn't stand a chance.

Two steaming plates of pasta soon arrived. Mayra added two scoops of cheese to her plate, and just as she was about to add a third, she was stopped by Gordan.

"That's enough. It's not good to have too much cheese."

"Then I'll give this scoop to you."

Before Mayra could extend her spoon, Gordon snatched it from her. He added the cheese onto his plate before handing the spoon back to her.

Mayra said, "I've used that spoon before."

Gordon casually replied, "It's fine."

The gloominess in Mayra's heart instantly faded away. She lowered her head, a smile playing on her lips. Gordon really hadn't changed a bit…

Meanwhile, at the Everton Corporation, Isabel held the intricately packed pastries and walked into the building. The minute she entered, she was immediately recognized by the receptionist.

With a warm smile on her face, the receptionist hurried over. "Ms. Fisher, it's so good to see you. Are you here for Mr. Barlow? He's currently in a meeting so you might have to wait a couple of minutes. Here, let me get the elevator for you."

Isabel nodded with a smile. "Thank you."

The receptionist replied, "No worries, Ms. Fisher."

In all of Belchester City, almost everyone knew that Isabel was soon to be Ms. Barlow. She had a status that was beyond prestigious. Besides her, no one seemed to be worthy of Anderson, who was exceptional in every way.

Isabel took the private elevator up to the top floor. Upon stepping out, she immediately caught sight of Anderson, who was seated in the main seat of the executive conference room.

With two buttons of his shirt undone, he exuded a captivating yet dangerous aura. Isabel found herself completely enamored by him, unable to turn away.

Despite being away from Belchester City for decades, he remained the same. Just like when he was young, no one seemed to catch his attention.

In the year and a half he had been back, Isabel still had a surreal feeling toward him. But their relationship seemed more distant now compared to before.

Thinking about his coldness toward her over the past couple of days, Isabel couldn't help but feel saddened.

It was Shane who first noticed Isabel standing outside. He leaned down and whispered something in Anderson's ear, making him nod in response.

After a short while, Shane walked out of the conference room. "Ms. Fisher, please come with me."

Isabel said apologetically, "I'm sorry for the sudden visit. I didn't mean to bother you all!"

Shane responded politely, "Not at all. You're the future mistress of Everton Corporation. Mr. Barlow has already said that if you wish to come, no one can stop you. However, the meeting just started half an hour ago, so you may have to wait for a bit."

Isabel was escorted into Anderson's office. Shane then instructed someone to fetch a glass of water for her. Isabel placed the box of pastries on the table and took a seat on the couch, waiting patiently.
