Chapter 49 I Can Help You

Isabella couldn't say she liked someone she'd known for less than a month. Theodore was still a stranger to her. Suddenly, Alexander softened his tone. "Isabella, I can help you. Just say the word." She stared at him blankly. A wild thought sparked in her mind. Looking at the way he acted now, could it be that he still liked her? Impossible! Isabella quickly dismissed it. Alexander was proud, arrogant, and full of himself. She was the one who had ended things three years ago. To be honest, the fact that he hadn't hated her was already unbelievable. "Alexander, thank you, but I really don't need your help," she said. Her voice was distant. She took a step back, deliberately keeping the space between them. Alexander's eyes turned gloomy as he looked at her intently. She smiled at him and said, "I'll stick to calling you Mr. Sinclair at work. Just treat me like any other employee. Don't give me special treatment because of your uncle. If there's nothing else, I'll head out now."
