Chapter 101 “Miss Smith, since everyone has said so, we'll do as they say. We won't dance,” Ben said calmly.
Isabella was speechless.
This was different from what she had imagined! Considering everyone had said that, if she insisted on making Susan dance, it would come across as somewhat pushy.
Isabella was a little angry, but at this time, she could only give up.
“It's okay.” Isabella forced herself to cheer up and said with a smile, “Mr. and Mrs. Landor, why don’t you take a break nearby?” Ben nodded, then pulled Susan to the side.
Isabella's eyes were full of unwillingness.
If Susan was afraid of embarrassing herself and did not want to dance, Isabella had an alternative plan in mind, which was to invite Ben to dance with her.
At that time, even if Susan didn’t want to dance, she couldn't stop Ben from dancing.
But who would have thought that Ben would take the blame and say that he didn’t want to dance? Beside her, there was a group of flatterers who kept flattering Susan, giving her no chance. to do anything.

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand courteously. “Beautiful lady, may | have the honor to dance with you?" Isabella frowned.
She looked down on Leo.
But after looking around, she found that other men were either married or did not match her taste.
Although Leo couldn't match Ben's handsomeness without the scar, he was still attractive.
During her time abroad, she had the opportunity to dance with Leo and knew that he was good at dancing.
She needed a good partner to show herself off.
Thinking of this, she reluctantly handed her hand to him. “Fine.” Leo looked a bit delighted.
Isabella was obviously more enthusiastic when she interacted with Ben.
But Leo didn't care.
After all, Ben was so good-looking and married. Isabella could only admire him. It was impossible for her to like him.
In that case, Leo felt confident that he had a good chance of winning her heart compared 1J MM Chapter 101 to the others.

JM M Chapter 101 17% Isabella and Leo seemed to be in perfect harmony as they moved gracefully through their dance.
In contrast, Yana and her partner looked like it was a solo performance by Yana alone.
That man was just going through the motions blankly, merely providing a living backdrop. while lifelessly matching Yana's steps.
Yana had been learning dance since she was a child, and her dancing skills were excellent.
And after a long hiatus from dancing, she released her pent-up anger through dazzling dance steps that came to her with ease.
Isabella had thought that it would be her solo performance.
Unexpectedly, Yana appeared, causing Isabella's face to darken.
Isabella was almost a professional in dancing, yet she could not match Yana's level of expertise.
It seemed that she was about to be outshined by Yana.
Her expression turned cold, signaling for the music to slow down.
As the tempo of the music decreased, the atmosphere was filled with a sense of relief and everyone resumed their gentle swaying.
Isabella gracefully glided over to Yana.
She chuckled and said, “Mrs. Leen, | remember that you got married because you accidentally got pregnant beforehand. Are you not concerned that this strenuous dance. could harm the baby you're carrying?” Yana hated it the most when people said that she got married because she accidentally. got pregnant beforehand! Not only did Isabella say that, but she was also very direct.
Yana looked terrible, and she said with a poker face, “It's none of your business.” Isabella blinked innocently and said, “I'm just worried about the baby.” MM Chapter 101 “Thank you.” Yana put on a fake smile.
*MOE17% 12:15 “You're welcome.” Isabella said with a smile, “Mrs. Leen, your husband seems to be in a bad mood. Is it because you danced with someone else?” Would Timothy be in a bad mood because of this? Yana sneered and didn't believe it at all.
They had fallen out with each other a long time ago. They were simply an unhappy couple.
Now, they didn't care about each other at all.
Yana didn't believe it, but her dance partner didn’t dare to dance with her anymore.
“Mrs. Leen, I'm a little tired. Let's call it a day.” He casually found an excuse and left.
Only Yana was left there.
Yana's face suddenly darkened. She glared at Isabella and said, “You did that on purpose.” “I don’t know what you're talking about.” Isabella put on a fake smile.
Yana revealed a savage expression as she raised her hand and slapped Isabella fiercely.
Isabella didn’t expect that Yana would suddenly hit her on such an occasion.
She couldn't help but cover her face and look at Yana in disbelief. “You're crazy!” “Mrs. Leen, what are you doing?” Leo grabbed Yana's hand tightly.
“Come on, catch me,” Yana said with a sneer. “I'm pregnant. If anything happens to my baby, it'll be your fault!” Leo abruptly released her hand and said angrily, “How could you talk all high and mighty after you hit someone?” Yana was pregnant, and with the intensity of her movements, he was worried that something might happen to the child. He knew it would be foolish to attempt to grab her again and potentially take the blame.
-MM Chapter 101 -N 17% 12:15 The loud noise caused the other people to stop and look around in succession.
“So what? What can you do to me?” Yana didn’t care about the other people at all, and she just shouted loudly.
She knew that she had a bad reputation.
“Anyway, my reputation is bad already.
“I can’t be bothered to try to defend it anymore.

“After all, he's extremely powerful.
“But who the hell is this Isabella? “She’s from another country. It's said that she’s the daughter of a prominent family, yet no matter the size of her family, they remain in Riowert.
“Will the influence of Riowert have any bearing on my situation? “What gives her the right to mock me?” thought Yana.
In the past, she might have kept up the facade of being gentle and kind.
But now, since she had completely fallen out with Isabella, there was no need to keep up the act anymore. 1 At this moment, she didn’t give a damn about anything.

So she didn’t want to endure it anymore.
Leo had never met someone so bothersome and annoying as Yana. For a moment, he didn’t know what to say.
Isabella was also stunned for a long while before she said with a wronged face, “Mrs.
Leen, what did | do to deserve this treatment?” CJ MM Chapter 101 “You know,” Yana said coldly.
Tears welled up in Isabella's eyes. “I was just worried about your baby, so | suggested that you not dance so energetically. Was | wrong?" As she spoke, she lowered her head and wiped away her tears.
Leo looked at Isabella sadly, and then said to Yana with a gloomy look, “Do you wish to hit me instead of Isabella?” Yana was taken aback for a moment.
“What does that mean? He seems to have paranoid delusions,” she thought.
However, Leo said loudly, “Isn't that the case? You're my sister in law's sister.Did she tell you to do this on plirpose? | just returned from abroad, can't she show me some tolerance?” Yana was speechless.
That was a good assumption, which made her want to applaud him and tell him that he was right.
After all, she would be happy to do anything that would ruin Susan's reputation.
However, Ben's warning was still vivid in her mind.
Yana twitched the corner of her mouth, and asked, “Are you out of mind?”

But my sister-in-law asked you to do this.

Leo had excellent acting skills.
The onlookers* eyes flickered, but no one dared to say anything.
Despite their urge to gossip, they refrained from doing so in Ben's presence.
“Great acting skills.” Sitting in the corner, Ben glanced at Leo’s performance and continued to focus o peeling oranges for Susan.
It seemed that peeling oranges was much more important than an explanation.
“Stop it.” Susan pressed down on his hand helplessly. “Leo is taking advantage of the situation. Aren't you going to say anything?” “What's there to say?” Ben frowned. “I think it's embarrassing to argue with such a person.” Susan was even more helpless.
Ben's indifferent attitude caused him to have a bad reputation.
Ben didn't care.
But Susan did not intend to let it go.
Her husband was a very good person. There was no reason for him to suffer such groundless criticism.
However, how could she convince Ben to defend himself?
An idea came to Susan, and she suddenly pretended to be wronged as she said.But he said that I was the Mastermind. My reputation has been ruined.” Ben's indifferent expression instantly changed! He suddenly stood up with a cold expression.
No matter what others said about him, he paid it no mind. However, if anyone dared to blame Susan for anything, they would be in serious trouble.

Susan blinked and nodded obediently.
There was a hint of a smile in her eyes.
