Chapter 3

The result is in the eyes of her husband.

But I am a spoiled girl.

"Adrian, are you really going to keep making the same mistake over and over again? If so, our relationship will never be the same again."

I was heartbroken by what my husband did.

Recalling the life we spent as childhood sweethearts for many years.

I decided to give him one last chance.

Before Adrian could say anything, Lillian pointed at me and started yelling, "Isabella, you are already our prisoner, and you dare to threaten Brother Adrian. Don't you see who has the final say in the Rossi family now?"

"In the past two years, all the wealth of the Rossi family has been transferred to Brother Adrian's name. You are no longer the high and mighty young lady you used to be. Without Brother Adrian, you will be left with nothing."

Although what Lillian said was unpleasant to hear, it was all true.

It turned out that during the two years when my father was away.

Adrian did so many things quietly.

"Adrian, is our relationship really irreparable?" I asked devoutly again.

Adrian hesitated.

After all, I have been really nice to him over the years.

After a long while, he finally spoke: "I am not an ungrateful person. I remember all the kindness you have shown me in the past."

"As long as you kneel down and admit your mistake to Sister Lillian, she will definitely forgive you, and then you can continue to be the president's wife of Foster Enterprises."

When I heard the words Foster Enterprises, I looked up and laughed at myself.

This is the foundation that my father built with his life-long hard work.

In the end, even the company’s name was lost.

When Adrian saw that I didn't say anything, he thought I was attracted to him.

He continued, "You can continue to be my wife, but Sister Lillian is also my woman. Her status cannot be lower than yours. Let her be my Equal Consort in the future."

"As long as you behave yourself, I will accompany sister Lillian on the 1st, 3rd and 5th of the week, and I can accompany you on the remaining three days..."

Lillian frowned, seeming very dissatisfied with Adrian's arrangement.

She was always good at playing weak in front of Adrian, and she knew that it was not appropriate for her to object at this time.

I finally understood why Adrian was so protective of Lillian.

It turns out that the two of them had been hooking up together for a long time.

In the past, when I saw two people being intimate, I couldn’t help but complain.

Every time Adrian said that he just treated Lillian as a sister and blamed me for thinking too much.

Until today.

Adrian then revealed his true colors and offered me extremely shameless conditions.

"Pfft, Adrian, you're gorgeous."

"You are just an adopted son raised by our Rossi family. Without our Rossi family, you would have been beaten to death in St. Christopher's Orphanage."

"You took advantage of my father's absence to seize everything in our Rossi family. You even wanted me to serve you together with that bitch Lillian. People like you also want to enjoy Harem Fantasy."

Adrian's face turned ugly.

It seemed like he didn't expect that I would mock him so fiercely.

Lillian took the opportunity to say, "Brother Adrian, you see, Isabella doesn't want to serve you with me. Just because I love you, she called me a bitch. Isabella is simply going to tear down the house if she's not disciplined for three days. This time, I must teach her a lesson."

Adrian nodded in agreement. "Isabella, I don't believe I can't cure your spoiled temper today. Since you are so stubborn, don't blame me for not talking about our years of love as husband and wife."
