The Heiress They Couldn't Break novel Chapter 162

When Isabel heard that, a hint of surprise flickered in her eyes, but she quickly regained her

composure.

She did not know Amelia all that well personally, but she had heard enough about her to know she was capable.

Recently, she had seen news about Amelia’s appearance on variety shows, her modeling competition, and even her upcoming film release.

Her company’s rapid growth was impressive too.

So when Patience extended an invitation, Isabel was genuinely tempted.

“I know you’re the lead dancer at your troupe,” Amelia said at the right moment.

“We won’t interfere with that. But when you have free time, we’ve got some upcoming projects that’d be perfect for you–you could join in if you want.”

Amelia knew how good Patience was at spotting talent. In just a casual conversation, she had somehow managed to recruit a top–tier performer.

Amelia figured she should lend a hand too. If they could sign Isabel, even on a temporary contract, it would give their company a huge boost.

“Alright, that sounds good,” Isabel replied, nodding lightly. “We can go over the details and terms another time.”

Isabel was already tempted, but after hearing Amelia’s words, she agreed without a moment of hesitation.

Her quick and straightforward answer made the group like her even more. Soon, they were all sitting by the drinks counter, chatting and laughing like old friends who’d just reunited after

years apart.

Before this, Isabel had always been skeptical about the gossip swirling around Amelia–the scandals, the rumors, the bad press.

However, after meeting her in person, she realized Amelia was actually respectful, reasonable, and the kind of boss who gave her people room to shine.

Those tabloid stories suddenly felt laughably false. And after Amelia had literally saved her life earlier, Isabel could not help but feel a growing admiration for her.

While the atmosphere around Amelia’s group was easy and pleasant, things were not going so

He had thought letting Gianna and Isabel spend time together might help them bond.

Who would’ve guessed they were like magnets with the same pole–constantly repelling each other?

And now, after seeing Gianna run off crying so pitifully, it was rare for her to ever break down like that.

Even when Amelia used to pick on her or treat her coldly, kind–hearted Gianna would still defend her.

She was always that type of person who would bottle up her own pain to protect others.

So when she burst into tears and ran off this time, Marcelo panicked. He did not even spare a thought for his fiancée as he chased after Gianna.

“Gianna, I know it’s not your fault,” he said, reaching her and speaking gently. “This is all a misunderstanding. Don’t take it to heart, okay?”

He even grabbed a tissue to wipe her tears.

“Marcelo, don’t worry about me,” she sniffled. “Go back to Isabel. She must’ve been terrified after almost falling into the sea.

“If you keep following me, she might misunderstand again. I really hope you two can be happy together.

“But I don’t understand why Amelia would say that about me. She’s the one who looked upset and tried to push Isabel, then pretended to save her afterward!”

Gianna hiccupped and sobbed as she spoke, acting like she did not want attention, yet she leaned into his comfort and let him soothe her.

And of course, she made sure to drag Amelia into it too, using her as a convenient scapegoat.

Without hard evidence, everything now depended on whose story sounded more believable, and Amelia’s strained relationship with the Nygards made her an easy target.

Sure enough, Marcelo’s expression darkened the moment Gianna mentioned Amelia’s name.

A shadow clouded his face.

“Don’t bring her up,” he said coldly. “I don’t even know who she mixed with during those years she was gone–she’s not the same person anymore.”
