Chapter 12: A Good Dog Doesn’t Stand in the Way
Despite The Fairwind’s lack of The Windsor’s power, their nearly
century–old foundation in Riverdale made them a bona fide major family, with Adrian known for his
flamboyance throughout the school.
It was rumored that during his four years at university, he had enough exes to fill an entire department, not to mention his countless admirers.
Handsome and wealthy, which girl
could resist such temptation?
Isabella had no interest in such
prodigal sons, turning away to listen to music indifferently.
“This Isabella really knows how to act, deliberately sitting next to Mr. Adrian and then putting on an indifferent

front, all to catch Mr. Adrian’s
attention. She’s too good at seducing.”
Isabella, wearing her headphones, naturally couldn’t hear these slanderous remarks; otherwise, she would have felt frustrated. In their eyes, anything she did was wrong.
After the seminar, as Isabella was gathering her things to leave, she felt something trip her. If not for her agility, she would have fallen hard.
Looking down, she saw a pair of feet in refined leather shoes blocking the aisle, helonging to Evelyn Wraithwood, one of Charlotte’s most loyal minions back
when she was still in school.
Isabella’s eyes glinted with scorn and without hesitation, she stepped hard On the foot.
“Ah-”
A miserable cry echoed through the auditorium.

Evelyn stared at Isabella in disbelief,
tears swirling in her eyes.
“Isabella, what are you doing?!”
“Good dogs don’t stand in the way.”
With those words, Isabella stepped past her and headed for the exit.
“You’re the dog! Your whole family are dogs! Isabella, you did that on purpose. Apologize to me right now!”
The surrounding eyes quickly focused on the scene, mostly eager to see
Isabella embarrass herself.
Isabella arched an eyebrow, her lips qurling slightly: “Since someone decided to place their foot in the aisle, they were obviously asking for it to be stepped on. I was just accommodating you.”
Her tone was lazy and casual. She hadn’t exerted much force; otherwise, Evelyn wouldn’t be sitting there

arguing but would have been on her
way to the hospital for a cast.
“You…”
Furious and speechless, Evelyn tried to stand up but winced in pain. She watched Isabella leave the auditorium and dialed Charlotte’s number on her
phone.
This time, she was determined to ruin
Isabella.
Adrian, who had watched the entire
drama unfold, was amused. This
Isabella was quite interesting; he
ondered why he hadn’t noticed her
before
When Isabella got home, she was immediately confronted by Charlotte.
“heard you were quite the spectacle
as school today, almost sending Evelyn to the hospital, is that right?”
Charlotte’s words were practically

through clenched teeth. In her eyes, Isabella bullying Evelyn was a provocation towards her!
“She was asking for trouble. You better tell your little friends to behave themselves. If she tries anything like that again, I won’t be so lenient next
time.”
Charlotte was taken aback. Was this a challenge?
Just as she was about to retaliate, the builer hurried in with a serious
expression.
“Miss, the invitation from The
Windsor has arrived. Mr. Alexander has agreed to attend your birthday party.”
