Twisted Ties of Love novel Chapter 372

Bella's Bay was a project Brett started for his beloved wife, Izabella, and it gained a reputation even before it was fully built.

Brett poured a chunk of money into it.

For the three years after Izabella passed away, Brett put most of his energy into this project. He knew Izabella loved donuts, so he had the designers incorporate a lot of donut elements into the design.

If Izabella loved sweets, then he would design the amusement park to resemble a candy house from a fairy tale.

The whole project took three years to complete. Brett often visited R City, and the places he frequented the most were a small villa where he and Izabella lived for four years, a noodle shop that Izabella loved, and of course, the amusement park.

He often came at night, when the park was already closed. It was quiet, with only the sound of the wind. He would sit under the Ferris wheel, reminiscing about the past. Sometimes he would hallucinate, feeling as if Izabella was still by his side, never having left.

Casey just randomly picked an amusement park. He liked the name and thought it would be fun to take Izabella there, oblivious to all the stories behind it.

The most common comments from the netizens was that this place was perfect for a date.

"Let's go here, shall we?" Casey enlarged the introduction picture of the amusement park on his phone and showed it to Izabella.

His face was calm, his eyes shining, eagerly waiting for Izabella's answer.

He was waiting for Izabella's answer, wanting to go on a date with her, have dinner with her, and, if possible, coax her to come home with him.

Home, what a beautiful word! He had already prepared the spare keys. Once Izabella agreed, he would give her the keys and add her fingerprint to the lock system so that she could enter his home at any time.

Everything seemed so smooth in his mind; it made his heart beat faster. His mind was filled with fantasies.

The first step was always the hardest; the waiting process felt so long that a second felt like a minute. Casey's breathing even slowed down. He looked like a puppy waiting for its owner to take it for a walk.

At first, Izabella thought she was mistaken until she saw the location on the map.

Bella's Bay was originally called Starry Brilliance Island. After Brett bought the island, he changed its name.

She remembered how Brett had asked her in front of the reporters if she was moved.

As Izabella recalled the hilarious scene, the corners of her mouth curled up in an ironic smile.

Everything in this world was interconnected; every action had a reaction.

The words Brett said in front of the media back then made Nathaniel mistakenly believe that she knew about the mines on Starry Brilliance Island.

Her fingers were broken, and her body was covered in scars. As a result, Ryker's body couldn't be preserved intact.

Did she resent it?

How could she not?

During their marriage, Brett didn't give her much. The ring size wasn't right, and he said he would transfer Starry Brilliance Island to her name, but it was actually a distraction.

He had only used her from the beginning; even when she was covered in scars, she couldn't get a shred of sincerity from him.

"I hate it." She hated the person who built this park even more.

Casey didn't expect that after all this time he would get Izabella's dislike.

He awkwardly put down his phone. "Then we,"

Before he could finish his sentence, Izabella interrupted him, saying, "I said I don't like this place; it has nothing to do with you. Let's not go to the amusement park; it's getting late, and there's nothing fun there, and I have a cat with me."

Casey pondered over Izabella's words.

If Izabella didn't like the amusement park, then she just didn't like it. But she specifically explained that it had nothing to do with him.

"I don't like this place; it has nothing to do with you."

If her dislike for this amusement park had nothing to do with him, then did that mean she liked him?

Casey couldn't help but smile. Izabella watched his changing expressions, puzzled.

She found that Casey was very emotional; one moment he was sulking, and the next he was all smiles.

Being constantly watched by Casey's beautiful eyes was quite pressuring; it was hard to ignore him.

"Do you want to go home?"

If Izabella wanted to go home, he would drive her home. Maybe he could even go inside and linger until it was late; maybe he could stay the night.

He insisted on having Izabella come home with him, but he wouldn't mind going to her place either.

After thinking for a while, Izabella said, "There's a park nearby; we can go sit there."

"Alright."

Although Izabella was more familiar with R City, what she didn't know was that during the three years after her death, this ordinary park had become a meeting place for the local elderly.

As soon as Izabella walked in, she noticed something was off. The park was full of elderly men and women. A bunch of strangers gathered together, discussing their sons, daughters, grandsons, and granddaughters.

"What does your daughter do?"

"She's just a regular designer; she recently got a certificate, and her boss gave her a raise. What about your son?"

"My son is still in grad school."

"He's still studying? That must cost a lot, right?"

"As long as he can study, let him study. He pays his own tuition; we don't interfere."

"Okay. Does he have a girlfriend?"

"Not yet; he's just focused on his work. How old is your daughter?"
