Chapter 522 The Attempts Of Layla
As soon as those words were spoken, the whole room was in an uproar.
"Huh? Really? Are you going to hold it immediately?"
"But didn't Grandpa say...

"Don't worry, I'll talk to Grandpa. I don't want to wait anymore." Alexander then turned to look at Isabella. "Neither of us believe in all that." Seeing how earnest Alexander was, Isabella nodded and agreed, "That's right, we don't believe in all that. We only trust each other."
They believed that the worst luck couldn't get in the way when one was met with the right person.
At this point, there was nothing else left to say. The others could only offer their congratulations.
Christopher unabashedly commented, "Perfect, Grandpa's grand birthday celebration will bring you two good luck." Everyone burst into laughter.
The atmosphere became even more harmonious, so much so that it made Layla feel like an outsider who was out of place.
Eventually, Layla couldn't bear it any longer. She figured she would pass out from exasperation if she continued any further, hence she made an excuse about being tired and needing to rest and called the help to guide her to a room. Since she was considered a part of the family, she still stayed with them.
After she left, everyone exchanged glances and broke into quiet laughter.
"How annoying." Tabitha couldn't help but blurt out. It was rare to hear her express such dislike for
someone.
"What's the matter? Weren't you very enthusiastic at first?" asked Eula, chuckling.
"But she was so rude to Janice, and she was even worse to Bella. What was she thinking, trying to ruin Alex and Bella's relationship?" Tabitha pouted as she spoke.
"Do v
you think they'll be affected?" Jake pointed across.
Isabella was already sitting cross-legged on the couch, completely enveloped in Alexander's embrace. He held her as if she were a precious treasure while feeding her fruits, utterly oblivious to the attention around them. Their intimacy was so deep that it seemed no one else could intervene.
Alexander was a tough nut to crack, his heart only softened for one person.
Seeing their sweet interaction, Tabitha felt an overwhelming urge to snap some photos and send them to Alexander, who would respond by sending her a monetary gift as a token of appreciation.
"I don't really know Aunt Maeve's daughter before this, but now that I do, I doubt she's the type to admit

Chapter 522 The Attempts Of Layla
Finished
Meanwhile, Layla had returned to her room, having already lost her temper on
She then picked up her phone, and after persistently urging for quite some time, she finally received the essential information
After reading it, her eyes instantly lit up.
So, this is how their marriage came about? The Jeannet family no longer exists, so there's no threat of a marriage alliance. Isabella's just a comedian, possessing nothing but physical beauty, Apart from that, she has nothing at all. It turns out their love for each other grew over time, huh? Judging from how restrained Alex is, he's probably just infatuated right now since he's never experienced dating a truly exceptional woman. After all, he got duped by his ex-girlfriend and tricked into marrying Isabella. I can't believe things are much simpler than I thought.
Those thoughts brought a devious smile to Layla's lips, and she immediately sent Alexander a message.
On the other side, Isabella was engrossed in using Alexander's phone. Upon seeing the message, she couldn't help but feel exasperated. Hah, she's really relentless.
She showed it to Alexander. After a glance, however, he didn't reply.
Yet, it wasn't long before Layla sent him another message: Alex. it's me, Layla. My mom told me to save your contact.
Isabella laughed. She's really good at coming up with excuses. Right, they're nominally related, after all,
Isabella couldn't help but feel amused by her own thoughts. This younger sister is nothing like others. She shares no blood ties with Alexander at all. If I weren't in the picture, given the connections of their families, they might really keep the good stuff to themselves and have Alexander develop some kind of relationship with this so-called cousin of his.
While she was lost in thoughts, she was pinched on her nose.
She glared at Alexander accusingly. He reached for the phone and deleted those messages. He couldn't be bothered to reply with a reason no matter how many times Layla texted.
Sure enough, it didn't take long before Layla stopped with her attempts.
Oh, I thought she had given up. It turns out she thinks I'm the one who stops Alexander from responding. so she's planning to send messages again when she sees for herself that he's holding onto his phone. That young lady sure knows how to console herself. David's family was in the middle of a conversation when they unexpectedly heard that gossip. At once, they were rendered speechless.
