Can't Win Me Back (Isabella and Nathan) novel Chapter 58

"Isabella, look at yourself. Where's the dignity and grace of being Hill's wife?"

"You're useless. You don't have the delicate appearance to make a good front for me, nor the brains to manage my business. And every day, you cause endless trouble... I must have been cursed for eight generations to end up marrying you."

Nathan, his eyes bloodshot, shouted like a cornered beast.

Isabella slowly regained her composure.

She climbed up from the cold floor, her face hollow and desolate, but underneath her calm exterior, her heart was storming with emotions.

She had once thought that Nathan's indifference towards her was simply due to his lack of love. But now, it seemed that he didn't just not love her—he actually despised her.

"Nathan, is this the real you, finally showing your hypocritical face? You said you wanted to repay me, to take responsibility for me for life—turns out it was all a lie. You only built that image of a person who values loyalty and affection for the outside world."

Isabella suddenly let out a weak, bitter laugh.

"Heh... I was really stupid."

After living two lifetimes, only now did she see through his true nature.

"Nathan, don't you feel uncomfortable dragging me into this marriage without a divorce?"

Isabella's words intruded into the most shameful area of Nathan's heart, and his anger surged. He snapped, "Isabella, you've become smarter. But no matter what you do, I'm not divorcing you. My reputation, my credibility as Nathan, will never be destroyed by you."

With that, Nathan staggered off.

Isabella looked at his disheveled back, a faint smile playing at the corner of her mouth.

How laughable. She, Isabella, though born humble, had grown into someone tough and resilient. Not only did she have fair skin, a beautiful appearance, and long legs, but her ruthless business acumen also rivaled his, the so-called heir standing on the shoulders of giants.

He was blind to her strengths and had the audacity to despise her?

That night, Isabella couldn't sleep.

Nathan's relentless pursuit to avoid divorce was giving her a headache.

By the early hours of the morning, overwhelmed by exhaustion, Isabella finally drifted into a shallow sleep.

In that half-conscious state, she vaguely heard Victoria's voice:

"Nathan, the City of Reincarnation is an irreplaceable treasure. Theodore bought it for five billion, so he won't easily hand it over to Isabella. She must have promised him something huge to get her hands on it."

"A woman with nothing, what could she possibly offer Theodore?" Nathan sneered.

"Nathan, you and Theodore are business rivals. If Isabella is bought off by him, won't you be worried that she might sell your business secrets?"

Nathan's voice, filled with arrogance, came through: "Her? Even if I put the company's secrets right under her nose, she wouldn't be able to understand them. A foolish woman like her could never be a spy."

Isabella, half awake, opened her eyes, but the smile on her lips didn't quite reach her eyes.

Nathan, oh Nathan. As her husband in both lives, he never truly understood her.

She had built the "Thea You Ni" company from scratch. In just one year, it had made tens of millions in profits.

People were calling her a business prodigy.

Victoria maliciously speculated, "Isabella never received love from her parents, and her life has always been barren. A girl like her, poor and vulnerable, would be easily swayed by material temptations. As long as Theodore offers her a little warmth, she'll probably listen to him without question. What's worse, he's given her the City of Reincarnation worth five billion. She'll probably be at his mercy for the rest of her life."

Nathan, imagining his wife serving another man, felt a wave of unease rising in his chest.

The anger he unleashed was so fierce it seemed it could blow the roof off.
