Their Bundle Of Joy

Chapter 6 She was Placed under House Arrest

The taxi stopped quietly at the gate of the Cloud River community. Isabel took Celia’s hand and was

about to walk into the community. However, a man suddenly ran over and pushed Celia away. Then he

covered Isabel’s mouth and dragged her into a car on the side of the road.

The man moved quite fast. Obviously, he was well-trained.

Isabel tried to struggle. But, she felt a pain in her head and then she fainted.

When Isabel woke up again, it was already dark.

Isabel found out that she was in her bedroom.

She turned on the light. The food on the bedside table had been cold.

She rushed out of bed to open the door, only to find that it was chained from the outside.

She rushed to the balcony, which was also locked from the outside.

Isabel was placed under house arrest.

Her mobile phone was taken away by Henry.

The house phone was also disconnected.

Isabel had no way to get in touch with the outside world.

"Open the door. Open the door. Let me out." Isabel panicked. There was no doubt that Miah let

someone kidnap her. Miah wanted to put her under house arrest until the eighth day of next month, and

then let her marry Robert.

Then, Miah appeared, "Isabel, your father said that you often didn’t go home at night. You know, that

has ruined our family traditions. So you are not allowed to go out again before school starts."

She drugged Isabel herself last night. She had thought that Robert would succeed. However, Robert

told her, "Don’t expect him to help Q.D. Group tide over the difficulties."

But what about Abby’s life if the company went bankrupt?

At least, the Q.D. Group couldn’t go bankrupt before Abby could marry a wealthy family.

"Miah Byrne, if it wasn’t for you, how could I not go home at night?"

Isabel didn’t even want to call her by mother when she saw Miah.

She didn’t expect that this woman drugged her and gave her to Robert. It was disgusting to think about

that.

"Henry, look at her. Usually, when you are not at home, she calls me by full name like this. I care about

her with all my heart, and last night, I was so worried about her that I couldn’t sleep. But as a result,

she didn’t appreciate me at all, and my kindness was taken as malice." Miah immediately began to cry.

Again and again, Isabel took a deep breath.

Today, Isabel had a thorough insight into Miah’s ability to make unfounded countercharges.

Isabel glanced at Henry who had just appeared outside the door and said angrily, "Dad, there was

something wrong with my soup last night. The soup was drugged. If someone hadn’t saved me, I would

have been taken to his villa by Robert. I just want to know who drugged me last night."

Things had come to such an extent that Isabel did not want to endure anymore. She must tear off her

stepmother’s disguise today. Otherwise, Henry would only believe in Miah’s words.

Otherwise, Isabel would be framed by Miah to marry Robert sooner or later.

"You mean the spareribs and kelp soup last night?" Miah frowned, wiped her eyes and asked Isabel in

an affected way.

"You know better than anyone else." Isabel was sure that she had only had the soup and wine last

night. Celia also drank wine, but Celia was OK, so there was only something wrong with the soup.

"Look, Henry. It was she who did not go home at night and behaved badly. Now she’s going to frame

me. Abby, you and I also drank the soup. We all were OK, while she was the only one who was not

OK."

"Yes, I had the soup, too. I was fine." Henry frowned, and grew more and more disgusted with Isabel.

"From today on, you are not allowed to go anywhere. Just stay in your room and reflect on yourself."

"I don’t..." Isabel cried. But Henry just ignored her, and Miah also showed a smile.

She was placed under house arrest.

She was completely placed under house arrest.

Isabel went on a hunger strike.

Every day, someone would send the three meals into the room on time through the crack of the door.

Isabel refused to eat and pushed them out.

For three days, Isabel hadn’t eaten anything.

Every day, she spent her time sleeping and being in a daze.

Isabel had intended to ask Nancy to send a note to Celia to save her, or to call the police. But Nancy

disappeared.

Miah gave Nancy a vacation.

Henry and Miah did everything they could to let Isabel marry Robert.

Isabel was really hungry.

Isabel was so hungry that she couldn’t help trembling.

She finally turned on the TV.

She watched the entertainment news.

Isabel wept when she saw Adam on TV. From NôvelDrama.Org.

She put her hand on her belly. She almost forgot that maybe she was pregnant with Adam’s baby now.

She was stupid. She shouldn’t have gone on a hunger strike.

For the sake of the baby, she shouldn’t do that.

Isabel began to eat.

Miah knew that she began to eat, and Miah made delicious food for her in different ways every day.

The food pushed in was what Isabel liked to eat.

She just ate for the baby.

She was not sure if she was really pregnant. But as long as she thought that she may be pregnant, she

would be distressed if the baby was hungry.

It was her baby with Adam.

She finally spent half a month in torment.

Half a month, she was three days late for her menstruation.

Maybe, she was really pregnant.

On the morning of the eighth of July, Henry himself opened the door. Immediately, two women rushed

in and Isabel was given a drink.

She stared at Henry blankly when she was forced to drink. Since then, he was no longer her father.

As for Miah and Abby, they were never her relatives.

"Isabel, I know you hate me. But I have no choice but to do this. If Robert doesn’t help us, the Q.D.

Group will go bankrupt. This time, I owe you. No matter what difficulties you have in the future, I will

certainly help you and support you, OK? "

Isabel glanced at him faintly. The drink just made her lose her strength. She knew that even if she

wanted to escape now, it was impossible.

She wore a white wedding dress, and became a puppet in other people’s hands, which could only be

controlled by them.

She didn’t speak to Henry because there was no need.

Since then, she had no father.

"Isabel, Robert promised me that he would be kind to you. So after you marry him, you just need to be

a good wife. He won’t treat you badly. I’m really sorry. "

Isabel gave Henry a cold look and said, "I just want the dowry my mother gave me. You give it to me."

"Oh..." Henry glanced at Miah.

Miah knew what Henry meant and said, "Isabel, your mother’s things are reserved for you, so they

must be yours. Don’t worry. When you come back three days later, your father and I will give you the

key to the safe. Without your fingerprint, we can’t open the safe and we won’t keep your dowry for

ourselves."

Isabel closed her eyes. She really wanted to slap Miah, but she was so weak now that she couldn’t do

it at all.

At this time, she was penniless, and she only had this good-looking appearance.

"Well, I’ll just take my identification. I will never come back again." It was not that she was cruel, but

Henry and Miah were crueler.

In terms of means and cruelty, Isabel was not an opponent of Henry and Miah.

She was still so young and naive that she was framed by her father and stepmother.
