Chapter 826 Looks Familiar!
Isidra looked at Byron’s and Cora’s leaving backs in surprise, unable to believe she was given the cold shoulder again.
Fortunately for Isidra, Vaughn just received a call.
Something coincidentally happened, and he needed to go back to
deal with it.
After discussing with her, Vaughn finally said, “Put the gift outside. Let’s go back first.”
Isidra didn’t want to leave. She initially wanted Vaughn to leave first. Then she would leave by herself once the banquet was over.
But Vaughn suddenly looked at her seriously and said, “Isidra, don’t crave things that are not yours.”
Isidra froze immediately.
She always thought her brother wasn’t aware of her feelings.
toward Byron.
She had been carefully hiding it, treating it as her own sad and
sweet little secret.
Only now that she realized her brother had seen through
everything since long ago. He just didn’t bother to expose her.
Isidra looked at Vaughn with red eyes. “Do you think I’m
ridiculous?”
“I do not,” Vaughn answered, his eyes looking at Isidra calmly.
He cared for his sister very much.
Especially when she was sick, he even tried every means to save
her life.
Now that she had survived, he also felt an immense joy.
So when he first noticed Isidra might like Byron, he didn’t expose her nor forcefully tell her to stop.
Because he believed that everyone had the right to like other
people, and it was fine as long as they didn’t get in the way of
other people’s family relationships.
He also pretended to know nothing to protect her self-esteem.
But Isidra’s crazy desire of wanting to get in the way of others’ relationships was practically coming out to the surface earlier.
Vaughn thought that he could no longer pretend to be clueless.
He said, “Isidra, he already has a family of his own, and his wife is also the one who saved your life. Don’t you have a sense of
remorse toward your own conscience?”
Isidra’s voice was almost hoarse. “I knew you would say this! She did save me, and I’m indebted to her. But they are divorced and didn’t remarry!”
In the past, as long as she cried, Vaughn would give in no matter
what.
But Vaughn didn’t back down today because he didn’t want her to become the subject of everyone’s spurning.
“It’s true that they haven’t remarried yet, but you can see that they are more affectionate than any married people now, and they also have a child. It is immoral if you still insist on getting in their way!”
It was the first time Vaughn spoke harshly to Isidra, and she burst into tears on the spot.
She sobbed, “I know that, but I can’t control my feelings.”
“You can’t control your feelings, but you can control your behavior. Leave New York with me now, and we’ll never step in
here again. No matter how unforgettable the feelings are, it will
fade with time.”
Vaughn gently stroked Isidra’s hair. He was her elder brother, and he was also obliged to teach her to be a good person.
“Let’s go home.”
His gentle whispers eventually made Isidra recover from her
sudden outburst, and she finally calmed down.
With eyes full of tears, she said, “But I haven’t given him the gift.”
“Leave the gift, and we’ll go.”
Isidra still couldn’t bring herself to accept it.
But she knew she couldn’t do anything under Vaughn’s nose.
Afterward, she put the gift in the gifts drop zone and left.
But before she left, she was still resentfully thinking that she
would definitely win Byron’s heart, no matter what means she
used!
At the same time, Georgia just happened to be called to the gifts
drop zone to deal with some matters, and Efren stayed by her side
the whole time while carrying Martin.
When Georgia had dealt with the matter and was about to leave,
she found a familiar gift box in the gifts drop zone…
