Chapter 263 - Two Hundred And Sixty-three: Make Sure Of It (2/2)

He added, ”But not when her siblings are involved, you heard Isabella - that woman has her twin siblings. Uncle Niklaus would not stand still when he hears of his kids no matter how in love your father Eden is with her,” Pedro spoke truthfully.

”You always support Isabella!” Anabelle threw a fit, standing up to her feet.

Pedro stood to his feet too, ”I'm not taking sides here Annabelle, I'm just stating basic facts. Children complicate matters of the heart,” He tried to make her see reasons with him.

However, Ansbellle was unreasonable which made them begin to argue back and front while Isabella watched with no intention of breaking them up - it was entertaining. But then, the more she watched, the more Izzy sensed something was off about these two.

”Are you two dating by chance?” she asked out of nowhere.

That question silenced the both of them instantly. An awkward silence reigned for a whole minute, and just when Pedro was about to answer her, Anabelle interrupted him by bursting into laughter.

”Of course not,” Anabelle cracked up at Izzy's claim. ”Why would I date this ugly knucklehead,” She playfully nudged Pedro on the shoulder.

Pedro's brow furrowed in confusion, what was Anabelle doing? Why was she lying to Izzy?

”I value our relationship too much to consider that,” Anabelle said, nervously.

”I think Pedro is hot and I would date him if I wanted to, why should I care about our relationship?” Isabelle was crudely blunt.

Anabelle was taken aback by her comment, she had forgotten Izzy can be quite direct. ”Well?” She shrugged, ”Don't you think it would be awkward for you if I date Pedro - not that I'm going to- I mean, we're a team here; one for all, all for one?”

”Nope, it wouldn't be,” Isabella answered.

”Alright, I'll consider that if I want to, but hey, I'm not going to,” She laughed awkwardly to cover up.

”Can we go back to the plan we've branched off,” Pedro's voice was gruff and he looked somewhat angry. Izzy wondered if her comment angered him, what was so wrong about what she said? She even told him he was hot!

”The plan Izzy,” Anabelle acquiesced, pretending to be oblivious of Pedro's anger.

”Alright, here it is,” Isabella rubbed her palms together and started, ”Since I can't kidnap Reina, no, Maya, whatever!” She groaned,” Well, I did some researches and discovered her brand offers customized jewelry for very very wealthy clients,”

”So?” Both asked, confused.

”So it means that Reina herself visits the client to get an idea of what he or she wants,”

”Oh,” Pedro got it, ” So when she comes over, you can pull some tricks and get the two of them together, alone. What a brilliant plan, Isabella,” He praised her, not noticing the dimmed look on Anabelle's face.

”So this is where you both come in, I'll offer an astronomical sum for the design but you two need to support me on that - Niklaus would suspect my actions if I withdraw such a huge amount,”

”But what if after all of our efforts, they still don't reconcile? Would you consider her with my Dad then?” proposed Anabelle, arms wrapped across her chest in a business-like manner.

”Oh, don't worry, they would,” There was a dark glint in Isabella's eyes, ”I'll make sure of it,”
