Chapter 449: Chapter 465: Promised I Still Have You (7)

No wonder last night when they left the hospital, they felt that there were fewer people in Bellshire City, and some storefronts were closed.

Isabel Smith sat on the bed for a while before getting up, picking out a beautiful outfit from the dressing room, putting on a coat, and leaving the house.

Upon leaving the building, Isabel discovered that it had snowed heavily while she was asleep. At this time, winter vacation had already started, and many children were playing snowball fights in the garden beneath the apartment building. They were wearing colorful clothes, making them look lively and full of energy.

Thinking of her own child, Isabel’s heart inevitably became dim, so she quickly walked to the roadside and hailed a taxi to the Smith family home.

Elijah Smith did not know that she would return to the Smith family today. The housekeeper who greeted her was very cordial, and Isabel casually asked with a smile, "Where is Elijah Smith?"

"The young master left early in the morning to send a classmate named Xiaoxiao to the airport."

Isabel’s lips curled, and she didn’t say anything else as she entered the house. Just then, Mrs. Smith, who was tidying up her bedroom, came out. Isabel courteously greeted, "Hello, Grandma."

Upon seeing Isabel, Mrs. Smith said, "I was just about to ask someone to call you and find out where you were."

After speaking, she turned to the housekeeper who was by Isabel’s side and said, "Prepare the car. Isabel and I have an appointment, and we won’t be back for dinner."

"Yes, old madam," said the housekeeper before leaving the house.

When Isabel and Mrs. Smith came out, Mrs. Smith’s assistant had already brought the car to the doorstep. Isabel personally opened the car door for Mrs. Smith. After Mrs. Smith sat down, Isabel followed her in.

The car smoothly drove out of the Smith Courtyard and headed towards Naverwood City. Isabel felt unsure about who Mrs. Smith was taking her to have dinner with, so she asked, "Grandma, where are we going?"

Mrs. Smith did not answer her question directly, but instead said, "Isabel, Grandma sees that you have great work ability. Grandma has said before that she only acknowledges work ability. Most of the achievements of Smith Corporation in the past half a year have been due to your efforts, and Grandma does not ignore that. Since your father passed away, the Smith Corporation has been handed over to your second uncle, and its performance has been getting worse. Grandma said before that whoever had the ability would take over the Smith Corporation. Grandma wanted to hand over the Smith Corporation to you, but now you seem to be in an unstable position there. Moreover, you heard about the scandal at the Smith Corporation’s annual meeting. Whether it is true or false, it has had a negative impact on you. In these past days, Grandma has been thinking about how to help you turn your situation around and return to the Smith Corporation. After thinking for a long time, Grandma came up with only this one solution. Tonight, I’ll take you there for dinner."

Isabel felt that Mrs. Smith seemed to be hiding something. She wanted to ask further, but Mrs. Smith once again spoke, "Isabel, this is the only thing Grandma can help you with. It’s up to you if you can seize the opportunity."

...

Shortly after returning to his apartment, Percy Stanton started making phone calls. He made phone calls all day long until the evening, when he returned to Isabel Smith’s apartment and found that she was not at home. He made a call to Isabel, only for the call to be hung up quickly.

Percy frowned and typed a text message, sending it over: "Where are you now?"

...

Isabel Smith and Mrs. Smith arrived at a Walesh cuisine restaurant in Naverwood City at five o’clock.

Mrs. Smith had already reserved a room here. As soon as they got out of the car, the assistant reported their name, and the waiter politely and attentively led Mrs. Smith and Isabel to a private booth on the third floor.
