Chapter 534 I Am Coming Over
Standing across from them in the circle of elders, David and Selena we extremely pleased. They didn't seem to mind their tardiness at all.

grinning from ear to ear, looking
At that moment, Marley came over and informed everyone, "Maeve took Lulu to pick up Harvey, but they're stuck in traffic and can't make it back. Never mind that. You all carry on with the birthday celebration. We'll have them pay their respects to Lionel separately later." The crowd didn't really have any opinions. After all, she was a stepdaughter. After her marriage, her visits became less frequent, and the guests would hardly notice her absence.
Everyone lined up and expressed their wishes in order.
When it was Isabella and Alexander's turn, Lionel laughed the most joyously. Isabella couldn't help but wonder if it was because they were the only pair who remained together among all his grandchildren.
Seizing the opportunity before they were surrounded by guests, Alexander quickly left with Isabella, casually grabbing some food and drinks on their way out.
As they went along, they didn't spot any familiar faces. Out of curiosity, Isabella asked, "Where is everybody?"
*Your friends at the studio, along with Jessica and Luna, have work to do, so they didn't attend the banquet. They left this morning, with Christopher seeing them off. The others are still here. They'll take care of themselves. There's no need to worry"
After escorting Isabella back to her room, Alexander gently placed a kiss on her forehead. Looking at her with a tender gaze, he said, "Rest well. I'll come and keep you company in a bit."
"Are you really not tired?" Isabella was, in fact, already feeling somewhat dizzy.
"I could go a whole day and night without sleep."
Even though Isabella knew that Alexander had been working out and thus had more energy than most, his words still seemed somewhat ominous.
Alexander looked as radiant as ever, brimming with vitality. He had never appeared to be in such high spirits before. Yet, somehow. Isabella found herself on the verge of collapsing.
Isabella's face flushed red. She muttered under her breath. "You greedy jerk!"
She quickly waved her hand, signaling for him to leave.
Alexander heard her. He pulled her into his arms, unabashedly kissing her for a moment before letting her
go
Isabella was truly exhausted. After all, she usually required more sleep than the average person. The moment she saw the bed, she couldn't even be bothered to change her clothes. The food that Alexander had reminded her to eat was left untouched. She immediately collapsed onto the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
After Alexander left, he went to the luncheon venue to host the birthday banquet. Amidst the clinking of glasses and the exchange of toasts, he was full of spirit and handled everything with ease.

After the proposal, David and Selena noticed a certain change in him.

Meanwhile, Alexander couldn't shake off the feeling that someone's gaze was constantly on him.
Naturally, many people in the room were watching him
However, that gaze was filled with malice, sending an involuntary chill up from the depths of his heart.
As time gradually passed. Alexander's discomfort grew. All he wanted was to swiftly return to Isabella's
side.
After extricating himself from some polite small talk with guests, Alexander immediately crossed the corridor, intending to leave.
"Alex? You're leaving already?"
"Yeah."
With a chuckle, Christopher looked at Alexander. Are you in such a hurry?
As he passed by the staircase, a muffled ringtone echoed from above.
The sound was that of an old-fashioned phone, yet it left Alexander feeling completely drained of strength.
As if he had lost his soul, he took a step onto the staircase.
Isabella wasn't sure how long she had slept. She remembered having a nightmare and felt her heart racing when she woke up, but she couldn't recall anything else. Glancing at the time, she saw that it was already four in the afternoon.
She quickly cleaned herself up and attempted to reach out to Alexander via a message. However, she failed to connect with him and had no choice but to contact the family. David: Are you awake?
Selena: Are you hungry?
Evian: Don't worry. Everything's fine.
Christopher: Where's Alex? Didn't he go looking for you?
Rosalie: Bella, you can sleep some more.
This family is truly comforting!
Isabella: I've had enough sleep. I'm coming over.
Since she had woken up, she couldn't afford to be lazy any longer. As the lady of the house, she would feel truly guilty otherwise.
