Married to my Archenemy

Once you got him, you had to hold on tight. He turned to Grace and asked,

"How's the contact with Mr. Martins Brown going?" Martins Brown, whose family was in the coal mining business, had developed into an investor. He had helped William's company grow rapidly and compete with the Anderson family.

Martins Brown had a special hobby, and it was said that he had even caused someone's death. To please Martins, William and Grace planned to send Isabella to him as a plaything once she divorced Ethan. Grace said, "Mr. Brown said he's waiting for good news."

Martins Brown had been interested in Isabella for three years and had been thinking about her all these years.

William asked again, "Will Isabella agree to it?" Grace rolled her eyes and said, "Who cares if she agrees or not? Once she gets divorced, we will be her only family and have the right to make decisions for her.

As her uncle and aunt, helping her find a wealthy boyfriend is doing her a favor. Maybe she's secretly happy about it and can't wait to celebrate."Both William and Chloe agreed with Grace's reasoning. Grace snorted and said,

"That's why the Anderson family invited us here, to let everyone know that we and Isabella are still family."

William also realized this and said, "The Anderson family seems kind on the surface, but there are so many hidden agendas.

No wonder they treated my elder brother that way back then." At this moment, Chloe sneered and said, "That's because Isabella was not capable enough to capture Ethan's heart. If it were me, I would never have been kicked out like that!"

On the other side, Ethan was socializing when he turned his head and saw Isabella chatting and laughing with James. Isabella was surprised to see James at the party and said,

"James? When did you arrive?"

"I've been here since the beginning. I happened to see you playing the piano," James smiled and said, "It was beautiful. I didn't know you had this talent."

"I just learned recently," Isabella laughed a little embarrassedly. "By the way, are you free tomorrow? I have something to tell you about the Wilson Villa," James said.

Isabella couldn't refuse this invitation as she also wanted to know who sold her family's property.

"Okay, let's meet at Valley View Cafe at ten tomorrow," she said.James's eyes lit up instantly, "You still remember Valley View?" It was where they had their first date six years ago.

Isabella: ".Uh... yeah... mostly because their coconut pudding is delicious."

Emma pretended to be surprised and said, "It seems like James is Isabella's first love? Are they... rekindling their old flame?"

The people around them also looked surprised and turned to look at Ethan. Ethan's face darkened, and he went up to Isabella and pulled her away."What are you doing?"

Isabella frowned. "You are hurting me!"

Ethan's grip on her wrist was so strong that it felt like he was going to crush it. It wasn't until they were alone that Ethan let go of Isabella.

He looked at her coldly and said, "If you want to find a man, pay attention to the occasion. Acting flirtatiously like this will only make our Anderson family lose face, don't you think?"

"Acting flirtatiously?" Isabella was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood. "We were just chatting. It's only because you have dirty thoughts that you think there's something going on."

"Isabella!"

Ethan was already on the verge of anger. Suddenly, a beam of light shone down from above, landing directly on them, and music began to play slowly.It turned out that there was a ball tonight, and they were standing in the center of the dance floor.

The host was momentarily stunned but quickly reacted and said, "Let's invite Mr. and Mrs. Anderson to dance first."

With so many people watching, even if they were extremely unhappy, they could only endure it for now.Isabella took the initiative to take Ethan's arm and whispered, "Let's dance."

Ethan noticed that James had also come over. He sneered, then wrapped his arm around Isabella's waist. They danced a passionate tango, their movements perfectly synchronized as if they had rehearsed countless times.

In the final scene, Isabella fell into Ethan's arms, and he leaned in to kiss her. But Isabella turned her head and avoided it, so the kiss that was supposed to land on her lips ended up on her cold earlobe.

Ethan's face remained calm, but his eyes sank deeper and deeper. Finally, the banquet ended perfectly. Alexander was already jealous to the point of madness. Ethan had never been so gentle and indulgent with any woman before.

It was obvious that he was treating Isabella differently now.The dance soon ended, and Chloe came to ask for a dress from Isabella. Isabella happened to want to avoid Ethan and took her to her own dressing room.

Chloe had always thought that her family was quite wealthy, and her dressing room was not small either. But compared to Isabella's, it was like a small fish in a big pond. Isabella's dressing room was more than ten times larger than hers, filled with countless clothes, bags, shoes, and jewelry.

Chloe swore to herself that she would win over Ethan. It was almost time for Grandma Hannah to cut the cake. Isabella couldn't help but urge, "Have you made your choice?"

"Not yet," Chloe dragged her feet. So many beautiful clothes had already dazzled her. They couldn't delay any longer, so Isabella asked a servant to accompany Chloe to make her selection.

After she was done, she would take her to the guest room on the third floor to change, while she herself went downstairs first. After Isabella left, Chloe deliberately picked a white dress that was similar in style to the one Isabella was wearing.

"I want this one. Take me to change, please."

The servant didn't know that Ethan had slept in the guest room next to the master bedroom last night. To save time, she took Chloe to the adjacent guest room to change, instead of going to the third floor as Isabella had instructed.
