THE BILLIONAIRE'S KICK ASS WIFE - Season 2 Episode 35

Fighting For Favor

Although surprised, Isabella firmly refused. “I’m afraid not. I have nothing to do with the Lang family. There’s no good reason for me to run the company. It is not my obligation to step in. Besides, I don’t have any experience in management. You must have other reliable candidates.”

Ethan looked at her blankly,

On the neighboring bed, Mrs. Lang looked at Isabella’s back, tears pouring silently from her eyes.

In the past, why had she felt that Samantha Lang was good?

Mrs. Lang couldn’t see that Samantha was clearly a mercenary, hypocritical, and heartless ingrate. Mrs. Lang had abandoned her biological daughter for this ingrate.

Now Mrs. Lang was looking at Isabella, who was calm and dispassionate. When she and Mr. Lang were in trouble, Isabella still came to see them.

If Isabella had been ordinary, she wouldn’t have missed this excellent opportunity to enter the Lang Corporation. However, she rejected it without hesitation.

Tears streamed down Mrs. Lang’s face, blurring her vision, but she still stared at Isabella’s figure without blinking. She seemed to be afraid that she would not be able to see Isabella again if she looked any less.

“I’m sorry… Mrs. Lang said in her heart.

Ethan turned to look at Draxton beside Isabella. He did not know him, but he knew that this man was unusual. Nobody would treat Draxton as a common person.

“Sir, what’s your name?”

Draxton said, “I’m Draxton Lockwood.”

Draxton… Lockwood…

Ethan was stunned. In Dawton City, there was only one family with the surname of Lockwood.

Ethan had never met Draxton Lockwood before, but he knew that the patriarch of the Lockwood family was called Draxton Lockwood.

Ethan smiled bitterly in his heart.

He looked at Isabella with a complicated expression and said to Draxton, “I didn’t know you are Mr. Lockwood. I was rude. However, I have to ask you and Isabella for help now…”

Draxton said, “Mr. Lang, don’t worry. If you really need our help, I will arrange for someone to help the Lang Corporation to overcome the immediate difficulties.”

Ethan’s eyes suddenly lit up. He looked at Draxton, who seemed to understand what the former meant. Glancing at Isabella gently, Draxton said, “Everything I do, I do it for Bella.”

A hint of gratitude appeared in Ethan’s eyes. Then, he looked at Isabella with a gleam of gratification.

Isabella’s life had been full of misfortunes for the past twenty years. Now, she had found a boyfriend who loved her and cared about her. And her boyfriend was the patriarch of the Lockwood family.

He was not only relieved but also a little proud. She deserved to be his child. Though she had been at the bottom of her life before, she still had been outstanding.

“I am not supposed to ask you to help me with Jason’s matter. However, at this moment, I can only push my luck once I hope Mr. Lockwood will help me look for Jason. If he’s alive, I want to see him. If

he’s dead, I want to see his corpse.”

Draxton said, “It’s nothing.”

“Thank you…”

Ethani was extremely grateful.

Isabella lowered her head and did not speak.

Draxton said to Ethan, “It’s a piece of cake. Even if it were a stranger instead of you, I would help him or her if

I could’

How could Ethan not understand what he meant? Ethan could not help but feel bitter.

Draxton would help him only out of convenience instead of because of the fact that he was Bella’s father. “Mr. Lang, if there’s nothing else, Bella and I will leave now.”

Ethan could only nod instead of saying anything.

Out of courtesy, Draxton also nodded at Mrs. Lang, but Isabella only glanced at her indifferently and left without saying a word.

Mrs. Lang struggled agitatedly again, and hysterical whimpers came from her throat.

Her eyes turned red and her heart was filled with endless regret. She had never hated people from the Thompson family so much.

They were the ones who had destroyed her family. She originally had a son and a daughter. It was the greedy people from the Thompson family who had swapped her biological daughter, keeping her

separate from her daughter Isabella. In the end, that imposter had done such an unforgivable thing….

It was her fault. She had caused her son trouble and driven her daughter away. She hated it and regretted it… She was in extreme pain. She opened her eyes wide and fainted.

The nurse was terrified and quickly called for help.

The ward was in chaos again.

When Isabella and Draxton returned home, it was already very late. They did not mention the matter concerning the Lang family anymore.

Nothing happened all night. The next morning, Isabella and Draxton were about to have breakfast when an elegant and showy blue sports car drove into the Northernville Manor.

Olivia got out of the car gracefully and swaggered in. “Oh, it smells so good. I really made it in time for breakfast.”

Her naturally curly black hair fell down to her shoulders. In the morning sun, her black hair reflected a faint purple light.

This was a common feature of the Lockwood family people.

Draxton, Ricky, and Betty had this feature, too.

A drooling look appeared on Olivia’s fair and beautiful face. She walked in and sat down beside Isabella. She hugged Isabella’s arm and said coquettishly, “Isabella, you haven’t been to my home to play with me for a few days.”

She was complaining while taking a plate and a fork from Cooper.

Isabella smiled. “Aren’t you not seeing me now? What? Have you been missing me?”

Isabella picked up a shrimp dumpling for her with a gentle smile.

Olivia enjoyed Isabella’s gentle feeding. Her head rubbed against Isabella’s shoulder coquettishly. “Isabella, you’re so kind. Can I call you Bella instead of Isabella in the future?”

Draxton’s face turned somber.

Isabella smiled and pulled her up, saying, “Then you have to ask Draxton for permission.”

Olivia’s body stiffened. Only then did she remember that Draxton was present, too.

She looked at Draxton resentfully. She felt that Draxton was an eyesore and prevented her from being together with Isabella.

Draxton was no longer in the mood to eat breakfast. He was already full of anger and was emitting cold air.

Olivia, you are old enough to find a boyfriend. Have you never thought of it?”

He questioned her coldly.

Olivia rolled her eyes at Draxton and blurted out, “Boyfriend? Can a boyfriend be more fragrant than Isabella?” Draxton’s face turned more somber.

Isabella held her forehead and laughed.

“You do nothing day by day. You have never helped to take care of our family’s business, but now you want to snatch Isabella from me? Olivia, have you forgotten who is providing you with such things as food, water,

etc.?”

Draxton was gritting his teeth in anger. He had been giving her money to buy food, drinks, and other things. In the end, she wanted to steal his woman. Who would want such a young sister? In any case, he didn’t want her anymore.

“You’ve met my assistant, James Beck, haven’t you? I think he’s not bad. He’s young and promising. How about a formal meeting between the two of you later?”

Draxton said.

Olivia widened her eyes and said in horror, “Big Brother, my biological Big Brother, are you trying to marry me off right away? Aren’t you too petty?

“James is an old fox. Do you want me to go on a blind date with him? Are you afraid that your sister will live too long?”

“If James is not good enough, then how about Connor Sanders? Coincidentally, he is old enough to get married, but he lacks a wife.”

It seemed as if Olivia had been about to vomit blood. “He lacks a wife, and then you want your sister to be his wife. Big Brother, you’re going too far.

“Isabella, you see how bad he is. Hurry up and save me. If you don’t do anything now, your little cutie Olivia will be forced to get married!”

Isabella couldn’t stop laughing. She said, “Draxton, don’t bully Olivia.”

After saying that, Isabella looked at Olivia. “Don’t provoke Draxton. Let’s play together later.”

Olivia’s eyes lit up.

At this moment, Isabella’s cell phone rang. She looked down and immediately revealed a happy expression.

“I’m going to answer the phone,” she said. Then, she got up and went to the balcony to answer it.

Draxton looked at Olivia unkindly with a somber expression.

However, Olivia widened her eyes warily, looking in Isabella’s direction.

She muttered, “The person who is calling Isabella seems to be a man. Her reaction…”

She suddenly turned around and looked at Draxton with sympathy in her eyes.

Draxton’s face turned even more somber. “What is your expression?”

Who was the caller?
