Chapter 267 - Two Hundred And Sixty-seven: Isabella Played Her (1/2)
The third point of view
”Just limit the number of sweets you give to him and his teeth would live longer,” the dentist advised, done with his checkup.
”Alright. Thanks, doctor,” Jennifer stretched her hand for Neon to take, ”Come, let's go home, baby boy”
Neon nodded, he was excited to be out of here. Jennifer took her child's hand and was about to leave when she received a call,
”Isabella?” that was surprising.
”Hey Jennifer, are you done with the checkup?” Isabella asked from the other line.
”Y-yeah,” she was breathless. Isabella had not spoken to her for days now, so this was quite a miracle. If she could get Isabella to like her - not that she hasn't tried- it would benefit her in the long run. Isabella was the apple of Niklaus's eyes, get her and you get him.
”Is there a problem?”
”Ah, yeah,” Isabella sounded a bit unsure. Strange, she was always firm about what she wanted, Jennifer noticed.
”I just found out how horrible my wardrobe is after I returned here. So I wanted you to come with me to shop. You know to advise me on some stuff?”
Jennifer pursed her lips, ”Would you really like that? The last clothes I bought you, you told me you weren't a barbie girl in a pink world,” Jennifer pointed out.
”Because they're pink and I hate the color pink,”
”Then it's obvious I wouldn't be much of a help to you- my fashion sense lacks anyway, ”
”No, don't hang up” Isabella was quick to add, ” I just need you to guide me on the feminine trend, I'll pick out the clothes. Besides, shopping is boring when you're doing it alone, please?”
Jennifer scratched her brow, it sounded almost as if Isabella wanted her presence desperately. Well, there was no harm in going, who knows? Luck might shine on her and they become besties.
”So where are you exactly?” Jennifer inquired, so she could drive over there.
”Right outside the dentist,”
”Huh?” Wait, she was here?
Isabella hung up the call.
Surprised yet filled with anticipation, Jennifer made her way outside where Indeed Isabella was leaning against her car.
”Sister Isabella!” Neon broke free from her clasp and rushed to Isabella who picked and lifted him off the ground.
”That's my boy,” She ruffled his hair playfully.
Jennifer smiled wistfully at the scene, they could be one big family you know? Isabella loved Neon, so did Niklaus and she loved them all. They would be a happy family If only that woman wouldn't appear to cause them trouble - neither was she ready to tell Niklaus She saw Reina with a child that looks like him.
