Chapter 382

Word had spread like wildfire that the Barlew and Fisher families had called off the engagement. In the social circles of Belchester, Isabel was considered a prized flower, with countless men vying for her attention. However, just as the ball began and the hall doors opened, the music abruptly stopped, and the banquet lights came on. Anderson, dressed in a sharp suit, appeared, capturing everyone's attention. It was common knowledge that he seldom attended such events hosted by the Fisher Corporation. Although all eyes were on him, Anderson's deep gaze remained fixed on her. "Are you having fun?" he asked. Although she was secretly happy, Isabel met his gaze with indifference. "What are you doing here? We have nothing to do with each other anymore. Please don't disrupt the banquet, Mr. Barlow." Her partner, who had been holding her hand, immediately let go and fled at the sight of the imposing Anderson. "Shane, take her home," Anderson said. "Yes, Mr. Barlow," Shane replied.
