After the Secret Wedding Rise of My Queen novel Chapter 5

Chapter 5 Xander's Ex-Fiancee

This woman really has some nerve! It's one thing for me to be here, but my brother is also here.

Isabel rolled her eyes. With her stunning looks and killer figure, any other guy would be staring at her. But he acted like even glancing her way might give him eye problems.

"Fine, I'll just assume you trust me then. I'm heading back to my room." Isabel adjusted her suit and, with a swish of her long legs, headed upstairs.

As she walked, she thought about the situation. That item was definitely in the Bennett villa, but its exact location was still unclear.

It wasn't her fault. The Bennett villa was massive, about the same size as a royal palace she had visited in another country.

With such a vast place, finding that item wasn't going to be a quick task.

And now that she had arrived, she couldn't make any big moves or she might raise suspicion. For now, it was better to keep a low profile.

The night went by without any issues.

The following morning, as Isabel was getting up, a maid came in with a few outfits.

"Madam, Mr. Xander had these clothes prepared for you."

"Clothes for me?" Isabel was a bit surprised but then figured Xander probably didn't want her wearing his shirts anymore.

He must be a real clean freak!

After Isabel got dressed and opened her door, she overheard the maid who brought her the clothes and another maid talking.

"That's her. So shameless! Trying to get into Mr. Xander's bed."

"Her face really has a seductive look to it."

"Yeah, if you ask me, that face of hers is definitely fake!"

"Totally."

Isabel ignored their comments and calmly walked downstairs, passing right by the two maids.

Annoyed by being ignored, the two maids decided to confront her.

"I suggest you leave before it's too late. If Ms. Lawson finds out you're married to Mr. Xander, you're going to have a hard time."

Isabel stopped and turned to look at them.

"Oh, we'll see about that when she arrives."

Then, Isabel didn't spare them another glance and left the villa.

The two maids were furious.

"Jean, don't you have Ms. Lawson's number? Send her a message now!"

"Yeah, I'll send it right away."

As soon as Isabel left the villa, she noticed someone was tailing her.

She quickly ducked into an alley and peeked out. It didn't take long before she saw Samuel coming into view in a wheelchair.

Just as she suspected.

He was following her so closely that it was obvious he suspected her intentions towards his brother and wanted to investigate her.

Following her? She was the best at shaking a tail. No one could outdo her.

Let him search all he wanted. She'd be long gone before he figured it out.

Samuel carefully checked around him, then muttered to himself, "Weird. Where did she go? She was just here a second ago."

Ten minutes later, Isabel arrived at the city's biggest mall, Thousandnight Mall.

Only the rich or influential shopped here—it was a high-end mall that regular people wouldn't even think about entering.

Oh, she remembered now. Beowulf's family owned a brand with a store in this mall. It was called Five Wolfs.

Isabel looked up and immediately spotted the bright red Five Wolfs sign on the third floor. The store was huge, taking up almost a quarter of the entire floor. Compared to it, the other brand stores looked tiny.

No wonder, it's Beowulf's family business. Impressive!

Isabel stepped onto the escalator, feeling relaxed.

Just then, the two girls in front of her started chatting.

"Tiffany, you didn't go get that marriage certificate with the guy from Bennett Group yesterday, did you?"

Hearing that, Isabel quickly looked up at the two girls ahead of her.
