Chapter 1372: Chapter 1372 I Have Someone I Love Now

Recalling the sweet moments she had shared with Jose Pearce, Isabelle Wood’s eyes brimmed with tears, though her lips unwittingly curved into a smile.

Across from her, Camila Walker listened intently to her story with Jose Pearce.

As time slowly trickled by, it was only afterward that Camila Walker realized that Jose Pearce had misunderstood Isabelle Wood right from the start…

“You’re saying that you didn’t earn the lead role through your own efforts, but rather… it was Jose Pearce’s mother who arranged for you to have it?” Camila Walker’s face was full of surprise.

If that were indeed the case, it would mean that there was truly nothing between Isabelle Wood and that director. Was everything, all of it, just a scheme concocted by Mrs. Pearce to drive Isabelle Wood away from Jose Pearce?

Isabelle Wood nodded her head, “Not long ago, my agent got drunk and spilled everything.”

Thinking back to everything that had happened, Isabelle Wood couldn’t help but become agitated, “I had no idea that’s what his mother had told him. I also found the chance at that leading role quite sudden. I had no clue it was a trap set by his mother, and by the time it all became reality, he had just left… I sought him out many times, but he refused to see me. Ever since then, whenever he saw me, it was as though I was a stranger…”

At this point, Isabelle Wood began to cry weakly.

Since learning the truth, she had also confronted Jose Pearce’s mother, asking her why she had done such a thing, yet she was told that with her lowly birth, how was she in any way suitable to marry into the Pearce Family and sit in the position of the Young Mistress?

Yes, her birth was humble, and she had done some dishonorable things when she first entered the entertainment industry, but at that time, she didn’t even know Jose Pearce, nor did she think about preserving her chastity.

They all said that to make it into the entertainment industry and become a popular artist, one must pay a price.

So, she had long regarded her innocence as fleeting as drifting clouds, that is until she met Jose Pearce.

“Knowing all this, why didn’t you tell Jose Pearce?” Camila Walker frowned, looking at Isabelle Wood.

Perhaps if Jose Pearce knew all this, he might change his feelings for her?

But Isabelle Wood shook her head, drained, “It’s too late, he doesn’t love me anymore, the person he likes is you.”

When everything was already decided, what could she change by saying it out loud?

Gazing at Isabelle Wood across from her, Camila Walker was somewhat stunned.

A perfectly good couple had been ruined by Mrs. Pearce.

“Lady Walker, I know he truly likes you, could you perhaps–”

“No!” Camila Walker didn’t let Isabelle Wood finish, interjecting with a determined look, “It’s impossible for Jose Pearce and me to be together, because I’m already in love with someone else. In this lifetime, I will never fall in love with another man.”

Hearing this, Isabelle Wood was completely astonished.

She was already in love with someone else?

“If that’s what you wanted to talk about, I’m truly sorry. I must be going now.” She checked the time, noticing it was almost 4 PM already. She had to pick up Belinda Howard from school.

Rising to her feet and offering Isabelle Wood a slight smile, Camila Walker walked out of the cafeteria.

Watching her retreating figure, Isabelle Wood’s clear eyes filled with even more anguish.

After leaving the restaurant, Camila Walker drove her Maserati to Kindergarten where Belinda Howard was.
