Chapter 180 I'll Tell On You
Isabelle Shelby's pupils constricted abruptly.
Yvonne Shelby was a person who was aware of the situation back in those years too. As a result, Isabelle made sure to instruct Yvonne in advance.
However, she did not explain the details to Yvonne at the time.
This was because they were albeit siblings, but she and Yvonne were not of one mind.
If Yvonne found out that she pretended to be Little Flower, there was no telling how the situation would progress!
At the time, she did not expect that Julian would suddenly request to come to the Shelbys either.
Now, she told the veriest lie and Yvonne realized that.
Isabelle inhaled a deep breath to calm herself.
She was going to marry Julian sooner or later, so her family members would be just as anxious as Julian too.
Thus, she had to settle the hidden trouble with Yvonne completely.
Isabelle paused for a moment before she softened her tone, saying, "Yvonne, do you know the reason why Julian married Susan is because of their childhood friendship? Now, I managed to make Julian believe that I'm the little girl from that time with great effort. A s long as the situation develops slowly, Julian's love for Susan will shift to me soon or later. I'm going to be Mrs. Shaw. We are siblings, so won't we have a good life after I marry Julian in the future? I will certainly look for a good husband for you too, Yvonne." i
So it turned out that this was the case!
Yvonne could not help glaring at Isabelle with jealousy. "You're so good at scheming and plotting! Since you're capable of deceiving Julian, why can't I? All three of us were together back in those years. If you can pretend to be the little girl, so can I. This way, the person marrying Julian will be me. Isa, you can be at ease because I will certainly look for a good husband for you too by then.”
"You want to marry Julian?" Isabelle could not help staring at the ferocious-looking Yvonne with a mocking gaze.
Frankly, Yvonne despised her younger sister more than Susan Shelby.
It was simply a joke for her to think that she was Cinderella.
Hearing the mocking tone in Isabelle’s voice, Yvonne grew anxious. "What do you mean, Isabelle? Julian is getting close to you now for no other reason than being deceived by you. If I make him believe that I'm the little girl, he will get close to me too!"
Isabelle sneered once. "Yvonne, don't be naive. Let me ask you this, do you know every single detail of the time spent between Julian and Susan? Are you capable of retelling those events? You had such a poor relationship with Susan at the time so I bet you can’t even talk about one event. How are you going to make Julian believe that you were the little girl back in those years?”
"I thought I have you with me?” Yvonne said in a rude and unreasonable tone, "I'm ordering you to tell me everything you know.” Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
"Dream on.” Isabelle no longer feigned her weak, fragile appearance as she rejected the notion resolutely on the contrary.
"How dare you reject me!” Yvonne looked at Isabelle incredulously.
Isabelle had always upheld her weak, gentle-mannered appearance on usual days. It was very rare for her to reject Yvonne’s request.
Isabelle sneered once. "I'm rejecting you, so what?”
"Then I shall tell Julian about how you lied! I believe that he will certainly take good care of you when he finds out the truth." Yvonne emphasized the words,' take good care of you' intentionally. Then, she was about to walk to the door.
Isabelle was panicking now. She could not help saying, "You won't, Yvonne."
"There’s nothing I won’t do." Yvonne opened the door.
A man was standing at the door with his hand raised about to knock on the door.
The man was stunned for a moment upon seeing Yvonne. Then, he said, "Is Ms. Isabelle Shelby home?"
Isabelle's expression appeared slightly unpleasant still but she walked to the door. "I'm Isabelle Shelby."
The person hastily chuckled. "Ms. Shelby, these have been sent by the order of Mr. Shaw."
He took out a box and opened it up to reveal all sorts o f tonic foods on the inside.
There were cordyceps, ginseng, and mushrooms that filled a small box.
The box could be worth over one million at the very least.
Isabelle did not expect that Julian would be so generous so she could not help looking surprised and joyous. On the other hand, Yvonne's gaze was filled with jealousy.
"I've handed over the item so I shall leave now," said the person smilingly.
"Alright, please help me to thank your chairman," said Isabelle smilingly.
"Wait, wait, help me pass this message to your chairman. Isabelle Shelby is not..." muttered Yvonne.
Isabelle panicked so she walked over and covered Yvonne's mouth.
She smiled apologetically at the person. "Thank you for your time."
The person looked at the strange siblings, smiled, and turned around to leave.
Isabelle had only loosened her grip after making sure that the person had walked afar. Then, she closed the door at once. "Yvonne, are you crazy?"
"I'm not crazy. I’m going to tell Julian the truth," said Yvonne.
Isabelle sneered once. "I'm doomed if Julian finds out the truth, but do you think that your life will be good from that? He is going to transfer his anger to the entire Shelby family surely. The family business that i s just starting to rise will be destroyed instantaneously. Yvonne, how well do you think your life will be by then?"
Yvonne could not help hesitating. Then she said in an unreasonable tone, "I don't care about that unless you tell Julian that I'm the little girl so he will marry me. When I'm Mrs. Shaw, I will persuade him not to fuss over the matter even if he does find out that you’ve deceived him." 2
"You..." Isabelle was infuriated by Yvonne. She said straightforwardly, "I’m going to ask Father and Mother to speak to you.”
Yvonne grunted coldly once but she did not speak.
Her parents had always favored her more. She believed that they would stand on her side regarding this matter.
This way, it would be her that would end up marrying Julian in the end.
Yvonne thought about it, and she was pleased with herself.
Half an hour later, Mr. and Mrs. Shelby heard Isabelle narrate the situation. Then they looked at the small box filled with precious herbs. They were caught in a daze.
After a while, Mr. Shelby looked at Isabelle with glowing eyes. "Isa, so Julian thinks of you as the little girl from his childhood now?"
"Hmm.” Isabelle nodded. "I can see that Julian values that period of time when he was young very much. The longer I retain this identity, the more he will value my presence and also the Shelby family too."
Mr. Shelby paced around the room in excitement. "No wonder. I was thinking about why Lanyard Construction would suddenly give us such a profitable contract. In the past, I thought it was due to Susan but I didn’t expect that it was actually because of you. Isa, you did well. You did really well."
Isabelle smiled upon seeing her father's excitement, then she glanced at Yvonne. "Father, it was not easy for me to gain Julian’s trust. Yet, Yvonne said that she is going to expose me...”
"Expose?" Mr. Shelby glared at Yvonne at once. "What are you going to expose! This is a great opportunity for our Shelby family to soar. Yvonne, if you dare to ruin the great situation that your younger sister managed t o strive for us, I will break your legs!"
