Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 2038

"Aunt Jane, not only did Uncle Alex hand over all the financial power to you, but he even gave you a bodyguard now. I suspect that he did not get you a bodyguard to protect you, it was actually to keep an eye on you so that you can't be snatched away by other men. Look at you now. You're getting prettier and prettier," Ruth immediately said with relief.

Ruth always had no filter. It was only in the face of people whom she feared that her inferiority and helplessness would show. Ruth was not afraid of her Aunt Jane anymore, so she was able to speak whatever came to her mind.

Jane glared at Ruth with annoyance. "You naughty girl! You can only be so spirited and shrewish in front of a few people like us who are so close to you! If it was someone you're unfamiliar with, you'd instantly become a coward!"

"Hahaha. Aunt Jane...who is your bodyguard then?" Ruth replied.

Jane turned her head around and glanced at that woman who was moving things out of the car and called out, "Isadora?"

At the other end, Isadora happened to be taking down the large luggage from the trunk. She pulled the luggage over and gently called out, "Jane."

Jane smiled. "Isadora, let me introduce someone to you. This is Alex's nephew's fiancee, Ruth Mann. We just call her Ruth."

Isadora looked at Ruth with a faint smile. "Nice to meet you, Miss Mann."

Isadora was very polite and she was a little reserved. Ruth was also able to tell that Isadora's self-esteem was a little low. Ruth immediately felt as if she had found a kindred spirit and had a sense of familiar friendliness on Isadora. "So, you're Isadora?"

Isadora nodded shyly. "Yes, Miss Mann."

"Hey!" Ruth immediately became lively. "No...no need t o call me Miss Mann. They just call me Ruth.

Sometimes, they will call me a shrew. I am a little shrewish, but I am very kind hearted. However, I will never dare to show my shrewish behavior in front of you. Hahaha. My shrewish behavior can only be used t o deal with such a woman like Lily Parker. If I were to be shrewish in front of you, wouldn't I be beaten up into a pulp instead?" 1

Isadora was speechless. In comparison to Ruth, Isadora was more restrained. Although Ruth also felt inferior and would sometimes speak out of turn, she had Ryan's love and Sabrina's protection. She also had such an aunt like Jane protecting her. Ruth's situation was much better than Isadora's. Isadora was very envious of Ruth. "You are truly blessed with happiness."

Ruth laughed. Jane could tell that Isadora was lonely. While Jane carried her son, Ricky Poole, she patted Isadora's back and said, "Things will slowly become good for you too. In the future, you can hang out with Ruth wherever you're bored. Ruth also has another friend. All of you can go shopping together. Make yourself comfortable. If you lack anything or need anything, just let me know. Alright?"

It was Sabrina who had tasked Jane to take care of Isadora. Although Isadora was older than Sabrina and was a woman in her thirties, other than the viciousness in fighting and killing, she was incomparably pure when it comes to other matters. She was cruelly forced to give up the only love she had ever experienced when it had just started to bud. The love she had only lasted for three days, but Isadora felt that that love was enough for her to spend the rest of her life alone.

After Isadora followed Alex back to Kidon City, Alex and Jane arranged a place for her to stay and they even arranged a house for her near her hometown. They originally thought that Isadora would be able to live on like that. However, they never expected that after Isadora had gotten her later mother's remains back and buried her, she made a trip abroad to bring back that inheritance that Holden had once told her, and then she had the thought of taking her own life.

After not seeing Isadora for a few days, Alex and Jane wanted to see how she was living and if she needed anything else, so they went to visit Isadora. If they had not done so and if they came half an hour later, maybe Isadora would have died. She left the gas stove on and was already at the brink of dying alone in the house.

After Jane and Alex had rescued Isadora, they did not let her return to her house anymore. She had been staying with Jane and Alex instead. Isadora then spent every day with the family of three. Sometimes, when Jane went shopping, she would also bring Isadora along. After some time, Isadora also felt much better. However, she still had a gloomy expression on her face.

Jane then tried to have a heart-to-heart with Isadora many times. Isadora did not want to share at first. Later on, she gradually got more familiar with Jane, and it was when she had become more reliant on Jane that she leaned in Jane's arms. "Jane...I miss Holden..."
