Leann understood that Isaac came from a formidable background. She was also aware that he was truly unique and possessed the capability to achieve anything he set his mind to. If he truly wished to drive her and her family from Aurous Hill, he could undoubtedly seed.


    In that scenario, rather than defending her marriage, she would be inflicting pain and damage upon her own family.<fn4847> Content originallyes from find·novel</fn4847>


    Her familycked significant resources to begin with. They had only recently started to experience a bit of financialfort. If they were forced to leave their hometown because of her actions, their lives would undoubtedly spiral into chaos.


    No matter the circumstances, she couldn’t bear to harm both herself and her family. Otherwise, her rtives would surely curse her for their misfortune.


    Just as she was on the verge of making the agonizing choice to ept Charlie’s proposal, she caught sight of Isabe standing next to him.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    In that moment, Leann felt as if she had found her savior and rushed toward Isabe. She fell to her knees, sobbing and pleading, “Isabe, I was wrong before. It was all my fault! Auntie made mistakes! I will no longer oppose your marriage to Steve. Please, help me speak to Master Wade and ask him to spare me. Let’s make the most of our time and prepare for the wedding quickly. From now on, you will be my beloved daughter-inw, and I will treat you as if you were my own child. Is that eptable? I beg you!”


    Leann hade to a realization. Everything urring today was a result of her actions against Isabe. Had she not tried so hard to stop Isabe from marrying her son Steve, Master Wade would not have targeted her now.


    The reason Master Wade was focusing his ire on her stemmed from her earlier behavior toward Isabe. She had brought this wrath upon herself.


    Furthermore, Leann had attempted to pressure her son into marrying Mr. Ward’s daughter, which surely infuriated Master Wade.


    This was the reason behind Master Wade’s punishment,pelling her husband to wed Mr. Ward’s daughter.


    To resolve this dilemma, she needed to address the root issue, and Isabe was that root.


    If she could convince Isabe to intercede with Master Wade on her behalf, everything might return to normal.


    However, Isabe was at a loss, unsure how to respond.


    She was inherently kind-hearted and did not wish for her fiancé’s mother to be left destitute, forced to abandon her hometown.


    Yet, Isabe couldn’t shake the unease that came from recalling Leann’s previous treatment of her.


    If she did advocate for Leann to Charlie, and he chose to forgive her, might Leann not retaliate against herter?


    Seeing the conflicted and anxious expression on Isabe’s face, Leann recognized her concern about the possibility of future retribution.


    In response, she began to cry and knelt before Isabe, pleading earnestly, “Please don’t worry. I will treat you with kindness from now on. You will be like my own daughter. Let’s forget all our past misunderstandings and live happily together. If I ever mistreat you again, I will face dire consequences!”


    Feeling her heart soften, Isabe turned to look at Charlie.


    After a moment of hesitation, she stammered, “Um, Charlie… No, I mean Master Wade…”


    Charlie regarded Isabe and interjected coldly, “I understand what you’re about to say. But I must rify that what’s happening now is between me and her, not you and her. Therefore, your pleas or intercessions on her behalf will be in vain. I will not, and cannot, give you that consideration!”
