Chapter 603 Through the window, their eyes met.
Draxton’s hands were holding on to the protruding part of the ledge above the window. His entire body was dangling in mid-air and was swaying back and forth with his arms straightened as the only support to his weight.
Isabella was stunned for a moment and could not help but burst out laughing.
Taking a few steps back, Isabella's eyes narrowed as she smiled and commented, "Draxton, you look like a big bat now." Draxton, who was called a big bat, didn't take Isabella's words to heart. Draxton did a flip and entered the house nimbly.
Isabella couldn't stop laughing and mocked, "Draxton, do you still want your image as the patriarch of the Lockwood family?" When Draxton saw that Isabella was smiling happily, laughter danced in his dark blue eyes. Draxton said, As long as | can make you feel happy." Isabella was taken aback for a moment by his shameless words of love. Then, Isabella reached out and poked at Draxton’s hard chest. "Why are you here?’ Isabella asked.
Draxton pulled Isabella into his arms and said, You and our children were taken away by Mr. Lyons. How can | not come?" After bringing up this matter, Draxton felt frustrated and aggrieved and said, "Bella, when you and the children left today, you left without hesitation and didn't even look back." Feeling helpless, Isabella explained, "I knew there was an 80% to 90% chance that you would chase after me." However, Isabella did not expect that Draxton would Sl x i to do it in such a way.
After letting out a snort of dissatisfaction, Draxton lowered his head and pecked Isabella on the lips, before reaching out to touch her belly.
Isabella was amused at how clingy Draxton was. It was as though Draxton had not seen her for the past eight centuries.
Isabella found it quite interesting and amusing to watch.
Draxton did not notice Isabella's amused expression. However, at this moment, Draxton quickly retracted his hand from Isabella's belly. After a pause, Draxton placed his hand gingerly on Isabella's belly again, as if he was testing something out.
Isabella looked down at her stomach. Under the thin fabric of Isabella's pajamas, there were visible jerky movements coming from her belly.
When Draxton tried to retract his hand again, Isabella's belly stopped moving again.

"| feel that he's high-fiving me." Draxton’s eyes widened in awe.
Isabella looked at Draxton and then at her belly. Isabella could not help but burst into laughter and chuckled, "Haha Draxton! You crackup!” Although Draxton was feeling exhilarated, he was dissatisfied when Isabella laughed at him. "It's true!" Draxton emphasized.
Isabella smiled and nodded helplessly. "Okay, okay. Yes, you're right." Draxton’s face darkened as he felt Isabella was being perfunctory.
Draxton and Isabella lay on the bed. Draxton was still staring at Isabella's belly and was lost in thought. After a moment, Draxton asked in a low voice, "Were Ricky and Betty like this back then?" Isabella shook her head and replied. No, they were very quiet back then. If | didn't believe in Grandmaster's medical skills, | would have suspected that there was something wrong with the children.
"They were also very well-behaved after birth and never made a fuss." Ricky and Betty were only mischievous when they grew up, but they were manageable and worry-free.
When Isabella spoke about Ricky and Betty, her tone was gentle and her eyes were filled with tenderness and love.
"At that time... it must have been very tough on you,” Draxton said flatly. Moreover, Isabella still had to be on tenterhooks and worry about Draxton who was after her life.
At the thought of this, Draxton felt uncomfortable and fear washed over him in waves. Fortunately, Bella had managed to hide well and was not found by him. If not, the results would have been catastrophic.
Isabella turned around and faced Draxton. "I'm okay. It wasn't so tough as the children were my motivation to live on. | was actually very happy. After all, | have my children with me." "Oh," Draxton replied gloomily and gently pulled her into his arms.
Isabella rubbed Draxton’s hair and felt that it was good to the touch. Although they had talked about this topic many times, Draxton was not in a good mood every tDraxton mentioned this topic.
Isabella did not care about what happened back then as she was a person who only cared about the present and the future.
The two of them fell asleep in each other's embrace, with her ballooned stomach sandwiched in between them.
The baby seemed to be at ease and did not move in the womb.
It was a good night's sleep.
The next day, Elodia knocked on the door.
"Bella, are you awake? Your children are awake and ready for breakfast." Elodia said.
Elodia knocked lightly on Isabella's door from the outside. Elodia and Ziana had moved into Mr. Lyons's house recently to take care of Isabella, who was about to have a wedding ceremony.
As Isabella was already awake, she responded to Elodia before turning to look to her side.
"Where is Draxton?" Other than the lingering warmth from Draxton on the bed, Draxton was nowhere to be seen.
Isabella could not help but glance at the window.
The window was even carefully and thoughtfully closed by Draxton when he left.
Staring straight at the window, Isabella suddenly felt the thrill of having a secret meet-up.
"This actually feels pretty good!" Isabella muttered to herself as she sat up.
At this moment, Elodia pushed the door open and entered the room. When Elodia heard Isabella's mutter, Elodia asked Isabella with a smile, "What feels good?’ Isabella smiled and replied, "I'm feeling good because I slept well last night." Elodia cforward to help her up and Isabella said, There's no need to helpup. I'm fine on my own." Although Isabella's movements were a little slow due to her big belly, she was very agile.
Elodia stood beside the bed and looked at Isabella.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I heard that you're now an embroidery host?" Isabella asked.
Elodia's eyes lit up as she said, "That's right. Master said that I'm lacking in confidence and don't know how to communicate well with others. So, he thought of a way forto do a live broadcast and speak to the camera.
"I really found it hard to talk in the beginning. But now, | am able to chat with my fans now." From Elodia's tone, one could tell that she was feeling more confident with herself now.
Isabella nodded in relief and said. "That's very good. You look very good now." Elodia's eyes brightened as she said, Bella if | hadn't met you, | might not have had the courage to get a divorce.
Perhaps | might have already been dead." "It's all in the past,’ Isabella said.
Elodia continued, "Master said that I'm very talented, but my foundation is not strong. However, Master said that as long as I'm willing to work hard, in another two years, I'll be able to complete an embroidery product on my own.
"In addition, Master also said that I'm very talented in design. I've already signed up for classes and am currently learning." Seeing that Elodia was talking excitedly like a little girl who had just gotten candy, Isabella could not help but smile.
Isabella couldn't help but think of herself in the past.
Back then when Isabella was in despair, she met with the masters. When Isabella had first found her goal in life, she might have been the sas Elodia now, who was confident and happy.
Isabella chuckled softly. "Good luck. I think highly of you." Elodia immediately looked like a child who had been affirmed by a teacher and was in high spirits.
It was as if the shadow of the past no longer existed for Elodia.
Isabella washed up and the two of them went downstairs together. Ricky and Betty were playing around with Ziana, while they looked like they had a close relationship. Isabella watched with gritted teeth as the three of them took turns feeding each other.
Everything about Master Menter was good, just that Isabella felt that Master Menter doted on her children a little too much.
Seeing Isabella coming down the stairs, Ziana smiled and teased, "Oh, looks like you slept well last night. You didn't miss Mr. Lockwood? | thought that you guys were going to video call each other the whole night." Isabella laughed dryly and said, Haha, not at all. We had already been together for so long. We're not that clingy." Mr. Lyons snorted and said unhappily, "Men are the most unreliable. Draxton didn't even think of coming to visit you. Bella, you should stay here obediently until the wedding. You're not allowed to go back." Isabella nodded obediently and silently sympathized with Draxton in her heart.
