Chapter 2204 “How did you and Roland meet?" Decker suddenly asked. Isabel turned away, fully intent on ignoring him.
"Did you meet each other at Carter Corporation? Or did you meet him outside of work and gradually fell in love with him, then you decided to set him up with a position at Carter Corporation?"Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
What did he mean by that? Was he insinuating that Roland was relying on her to snake his way into Carter Corporation?
She threw a sideways, belittling look at him. "Do you think Roland is anything like you? He wouldn't latch on another woman to further his goals."
Decker was not upset by this as he continued with a smug smile. "Oh? Then how did he get into Carter Corporation?"
"He proved his worth." Isabel realized that she had been roped in by Decker again. Nevertheless, she continued, "He passed the interviews himself. | was one of the interviewers and initially planned to dismiss him, but he managed to leave a very good impression on my father and the rest was history."
"Then how did you get together? Was he the one pursuing a relationship with you or was it the other way around?"
Isabel chuckled. 'Til have to thank you for that."
Decker was taken aback. "For what?"
She prompted. "Remember last year’s Legend of Goddess' party?"
Decker frowned. "That night?"
Isabel smiled cunningly. "That's right, | pretty much threw myself at him that night and he's been obsessed with me since." This would not have happened if not for Decker spiking her drink with whatever he put in at the time.
Decker made a face as he observed Isabel's haughty expression in silence. After a while, he laughed mockingly. " He only ended up with you because he knew about you being a Carter, didn’t he?"
Isabel would have gone up to him and punched him in the face. She decided against it because she wanted to be through with this man.
"Decker, do you think my family background is the only thing to note about me?" She sneered. "Or do you think I'm so stupid that | can’t make out the kind of person Roland is?"
Decker remarked, "You're beautiful and the most intelligent woman | know." Now only that, but she was also feisty, charming, and adorable at times.
"| know that," she said with a scoff before stating grossly, " But don't you even think about complimenting me to get my guard down. I'll never forget about all those terrible things you did to me.”
As she said this, the look in her eyes sharpened. "Get ready to go to jail!”
His list of crimes would take an entire day to note down. There was his bribing of countless media outlets, a blatant act of defamation, and there were also the numerous things he must have done at Carter Corporation that broke regulations. With all this evidence stacked against him, Roland would most certainly put him in jail.
The smile on Decker's lips vanished in an instant. He looked at her with lingering affection.
After a while, he spoke up, "I've wronged you, that's on me. Still, I'm very happy to have been with you at one point. It's the greatest thing that’s ever happened to me."
Isabel felt goosebumps run through her body. Ugh, what a disgusting man.
"Soon, I'll be a broken man with everything taken away from me. Before that, could you give me a hug, considering that we at least still have a bit of affection for each other from the past?” he asked without shame.
His voice was gentle and soft. If Isabel was a child who had never gained any worldly experience, she might have been seduced. However, she was no longer a child.
She shot a look at him. "If you take a step closer, I'll have Brandon beat you until you’re crippled.”
Brandon was the bodyguard.
Decker made a look. He boldly took a step forward as if he had not heard Isabel's threat.
Isabel frowned. "Decker, do you think | wouldn't do it?”
Decker eyed her, then he took another step.
Thump!
Without waiting for Isabel to order, Brandon swung a fist that connected with Decker right in the face. His tall figure collapsed to the floor in one fell swoop.
Isabel flinched when she saw that.
Brandon stood over Decker and readied himself. If Decker was going to continue approaching Isabel, he would deliver a swift kick to his chest.
Decker lay on the ground for more than ten seconds. After he took a deep breath, he pushed himself up from the ground. He rubbed the swollen part of his face and turned to Isabel again. Isabel glared at him menacingly. "What are you looking at? Walkaway or else!"
"Heh." He chuckled.
