Next One Is a Babe
Chapter 910

Isabelle paused; something wasn't feeling right.

Her parents' breakfast was sent into their room this morning by the housekeeper and Isabelle saw Elder Mr. Bailey heading into her father's room after she finished her breakfast and was heading upstairs.

She had been sensitive toward Elder Mr. Bailey's actions lately, so she slowly inched closer.

Initially, Elder Mr. Bailey tried to get his son to snap out of it as Bailey Corporation's operation couldn't go on without him.

However, Old Mr. Bailey simply sighed. It was understandable for him to be unable to recover from something like this for a period of time after all.

A while later, Elder Mr. Bailey stopped and suddenly added, "Just watch. Our company will progress even further."

Still, Old Mr. Bailey drowned in his sadness as he mumbled softly, "It won't. My hope is gone along with Dexter."

After a pause, Elder Mr. Bailey continued, "Belle is still here. We can still place our hopes on her."

Isabelle stood by the door and heard that clearly.

A few seconds later, Elder Mr. Bailey went on to say, "It's not like we reached a dead end on John's side as well. Just do as you see fit."

Isabelle didn't understand what Elder Mr. Bailey meant back then, but now that John told her about what happened to Sophia earlier, she suddenly came to a realization.

Isabelle opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say. Before she could utter a word, John asked again, "Do you know where that butler went after he resigned?"

Isabelle pursed her lips. "I don't know."

However, Isabelle suddenly recalled her father trying to probe where she was going to go when she asked John and Sophia out for a meal and arranged for people to stand on guard in front of the restaurant. Why would he do something like this? He must have been against someone there, and now, Isabelle could easily figure out who they were against back then.

Since both her father and grandfather prioritized John a lot, they naturally wouldn't do anything to him, so the only person left was Sophia.

Isabelle admitted honestly that she disliked Sophia; she really disliked Sophia to the point that she even hated her.

However, she wouldn't try to kill Sophia as she still had her humanity within her, and it was impossible for her to do something like that. Even back then when she pushed Sophia in the hospital, it was only because she was really triggered by what Sophia said.

John's cold voice rang out again. "That butler appeared at the shadow bank."

Isabelle took a deep breath before replying, "I really don't know about this."

However, she could already connect all of the scattered information.

Isabelle could feel her mind buzzing and she didn't even remember how she ended the call in the end.

A while later, she got up and went outside.

A while later, she got up and went outside.

Elder Mr. Bailey was standing downstairs with his walking stick without any servant with him when Isabelle walked over to him. "Grandpa, why are you standing here all alone?"

Elder Mr. Bailey snapped back to reality. "It's nothing. I just came out to have a breather as I felt too cooped up in the house. I wonder how the company's operating now."

After pondering for a moment, Isabelle answered, "I don't know if Uncle will be able to manage the company's operation, but now that we are not going over to the company, they're probably struggling."

Elder Mr. Bailey chuckled. "It's fine. Your uncle had always relied on others since your father had always been taking care of him. If there wasn't anyone around to help him, he might have already risen up to take over our family business earlier, so this is a good chance for him to start honing his skills."

However, Isabelle changed the topic after thinking for a while. "I rejected my mother when she told me that she wanted to set me up for a blind date previously because I still had feelings toward John, but wher I think about this now, it's impossible for me to wedge in between John and Sophia anymore. Moreover, now that our family has ended up like this, I believe that going on that date will be helpful for our family. Why don't you guys arrange it over the next few days?"
