Twisted Ties of Love

Chapter 261

Izabella wiped away her tears and told herself not to cry.

Brett not only took away her memories but also her feelings towards him. She couldn't abandon her freedom and health here anymore.

Izabella staggered to the bathroom and took a hot shower. Her body was frail, and the reflection of her thin figure on the glass door made it heartbreaking to look at.

She also feelt sorry for herself, as her heart, such a tiny place, was filled with Brett. And now, she had been hurt all over by her beloved.

Why was love so complicated in this world? Why was there deception?

Didn’t Brett's heart ache while he was deceiving her?

The answer was "no." When he was deceiving her, he might have been mocking at her foolishness and then showing off his superiority. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Some people feel uncomfortable during pregnancy, such as anxiety, insomnia, and nausea. These symptoms would gradually appear after six weeks of pregnancy, and more severe cases could even cause the body to swell.

Of course, some people had no reactions.

Izabella hoped she was one of the lucky latter group because her health was awful, and she was afraid that her baby would leave her if she didn't take care.

She touched her belly, thinking about how she was lying in Brett's arms and picking names for their baby not long ago.

Niki seemed to sense her unhappiness and rubbed against her legs. Its little head nuzzled against her pants, leaving them covered in fur soon.

Izabella picked up Niki, deciding to take her away too.

By now, Izabella had a rough plan. She had been to Brett's company and knew his schedule, which timeframes he would be busiest, and which day of the week he would usually hold meetings.

Izabella decided to leave on Monday, the day after tomorrow. However, she needed to pack her belongings without being noticed by the housekeeper and cameras in the villa.

Izabella only trusted Tiara. She didn't know if Tiara would help her, but she had to take this risk.

Tiara had always cared for Izabella in the villa like her own daughter.

These days, Tiara noticed that Izabella was not in the right mood, and Brett hadn't come back either. She was worried, even fearing that they might divorce.

But Tiara didn't think they would. Arguing between couples was normal, and they had resolved their conflicts overnight before, hadn't they?

Moreover, they had been getting along well in the past one or two months, with no quarrels seen.

Tiara saw Izabella's pale face and knew she was undernourished, so she cooked fish soup for Izabella.

Tiara was good at cooking. The fish was tender, boneless, and thorn-free, with no fishy smell.

Izabella always loved the soups cooked by Tiara, but this time she was absent-mindedly having it in her bedroom, not even finishing a bowl of it.

"Ma'am, did something happen between you and President Windham recently?" Tiara asked.

Izabella's eyelashes trembled; she put down her bowl and said, "Tiara, can you not call me ma'am?"

Tiara felt a tightness in her chest, realizing that the conflict between Izabella and Brett must've been huge this time.

It was different from the last time when Izabella didn't ask her to change the way she addressed her.

Izabella continued, "I'm pregnant."

Tiara's emotions felt like a roller coaster, "That's a great thing!"
