Chapter 194: She is My Unexpected Surprise (7)

Isabel Smith took a deep breath, pulling back her wandering thoughts and calmly responded, "I'm coming."

"Madam and the others are back, and lunch is almost ready, Miss Isabel. You can come downstairs now."

"Right away." Isabel replied before removing her fingers from the ceramic cup. She composed herself, then slowly stepped out of her room in her high heels.

By some coincidence, as Isabel left her room, Elijah Smith also exited his, still on his phone call. He had a gentle expression which soured the moment he saw Isabel. His tone on the phone suddenly sounded irritated, "You're already downstairs, why can't you just come up, instead of asking me to fetch you!"

With that, Elijah hung up the phone with an audible click and turned back to enter his room. He slammed the door shut, making a thunderous noise.

Isabel stood in the corridor, looking at Elijah's closed door, and sneered. She then turned around and continued her way downstairs in her high heels.
