Secret Wedding 241 Chapter 241 Tailing Isabel to the Bennett Villa The following day, Isabel returned to I.Z. Corporation, but when she left, she realized she was being tailed. Checking her surroundings through the car's side mirror, Isabel noticed two individuals trailing her movements. Both were wearing face coverings, blending in as ordinary passersby walking a short distance behind. Initially, Isabel assumed they had bad intentions and might mean harm. However, she soon realized their movements were too precise and deliberate for amateurs-most people wouldn't have even noticed their presence. This sparked her curiosity. Who were they, and what were their plans for me? As Isabel strolled, her gaze fell on a traffic officer managing cars at a nearby crossroad. A sly grin crept across her face, her eyes revealing a trace of mischief.
"What is she doing?" asked one of the Zimmermans' bodyguards, who had been tailing her, as he watched Isabel approach the officer. "Could she have figured us out and plans to report us?" "That's impossible. Our tracking methods are flawless. She's probably just lost and asking for directions," the other bodyguard replied confidently.
"That seems reasonable." The two bodyguards remained certain of their abilities to stay undetected.
But then...
The traffic officer unexpectedly charged in their direction.
Reacting to the sudden threat, the Zimmermans' two bodyguards instinctively stepped back a couple of paces. Their reflexive retreat only validated Isabel's suspicions. These individuals clearly had suspicious intentions! "Arrest them!" The two bodyguards, both towering and well-built with excellent fighting abilities, were caught off guard and rendered helpless by the traffic officer's swift actions. In the end, they were subdued and restrained from behind. "What's happening? Why are you detaining us?" one of them protested, trying to sound innocent.
At this point, the two bodyguards could only play dumb and feign ignorance.
"Don't act clueless. The girl informed us that you've been trailing her," the officer responded firmly.
Though this wasn't technically within the traffic police's scope of duties, they couldn't just ignore a distressed girl seeking help.
"We weren't following her! We don't even know who she is!" the second bodyguard argued, sticking to their denial.
"Not following her? Then why did you both step back earlier?" the traffic officer asked, raising an eyebrow. "We... we didn't run!" one of the bodyguards stammered, trying to defend himself.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Exactly! We didn't run!" The officer retorted, "Don't try to talk your way out of this! We saw everything clearly. Take them to the station!" Soon, Colin was notified about the situation.
"What a bunch of incompetent fools! They're supposed to be experts in tracking, yet they can't even follow someone without getting caught. Is this the so-called professionalism?!" Colin shouted, enraged.
Amelia placed a hand on Colin's back, trying to soothe his anger. "Calm down, Honey. I've also arranged for a few people to keep an eye on Isabel, just to make sure everything goes smoothly. Don't worry, we'll catch her today for sure." She was even more determined than Colin to seize control of I.Z. Corporation. Owning it would significantly boost her standing in society and allow her to spend money freely in the future. As a result, she invested even more tand resources into bringing down Isabel. "That's perfect!" Colin smiled and pulled her into a tight embrace. "Marrying a woman like you is truly the best thing that ever happened to me." Amelia rested against his chest, her expression filled with calculation and hidden motives.
Isabel slowed her pace again, wondering if there was a person still following her.
It seemed like an endless cycle, one wave after another.
She decided to ignore it, not willing to waste her energy. After all, she would deal with them when the right times arrived.
After wandering for a bit longer, Isabel hailed a taxi and headed toward the Bennett villa.
The two bodyguards from the Zimmermans, still tailing her, followed in a car behind. Meanwhile, Amelia was on the phone with them.
"She just got into a taxi, and we're following," one of the bodyguards reported.
"Keep following her. Take action when the tis right," Amelia ordered. "Got it," the bodyguard responded.
After ending the call, Lillian paused for a moment and asked, "Does she frequently visit Lilac Heights?" When Lillian mentioned Lilac Heights, Amelia and Colin instantly remembered that Isabel and Reggie lived in a house there.
Villa No. 7, to be exact! "Honey, do you really think Isabel and her Reggie are the ones who bought that crown villa?" Amelia asked. "Not a chance!" Colin quickly rejected the idea.
"Even if they have the money, they lack the means to afford it. Properties in Lilac Heights are in high demand in Solaria. You can't simply acquire one without certain influence or connections." "But... "Amelia looked troubled.
Before she could speak further, Colin's eyes suddenly widened as he jumped to his feet.
The couple exchanged surprised glances.
At that moment, one person crossed their minds.
"Miracle Healer!" Lillian exclaimed.
As soon as she said the name, the living room fell into a heavy silence.
If Miracle Healer was involved, who would dare refuse her? "Does that mean the villa really belongs to the two of them?" Amelia asked, her face showing a mix of envy and disbelief.
Amelia wasn't the only one upset. Colin's expression was just as grim.
"Those two troublemakers! How dare they? Living in the crown villa in нас Heights, enjoying life, while Olac completely ignoring us!" The more he ranted, the angrier and more helpless he became. Other people's children bring pride to their families, but his own just seemed determined to drive him mad.
"Honey, calm down. Once we catch Isabel and use her to pressure Reggie what's there to worry about? The villa NO to will be ours, and so will the I.Z.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCorporation." Amelia was now even more determined. It's the crown villa in Lilac Heights! Only that place could match her high status, and she couldn't wait to flaunt it to her friends.
"Achoo!" Isabel sneezed.
"That's strange. Why do I keep sneezing? Who's talking about me?" she wondered.
Isabel rubbed her nose, stepped out of the taxi, and walked straight into the Bennett villa.
The Zimmermans' bodyguards, following behind, parked the car to the side. They stared at the grand mansion, its size rivaling that of an estate.
This wasn't the kind of place they could just enter without permission.
They exchanged a look, both clearly surprised.
"Should we call first and let them know what's going on here?" one of them suggested.
"What did you say? Isabel went into a super luxurious villa? Not Lilas m Heights? A villa even more luxurious than Lilac Heights?!" Amelia exclaimed in shock. Amelia was on speakerphone, so both Colin and Lillian also heard the bodyguard's update.
Colin grabbed the phone. "Do you know which villa it is?" he demanded.
"I'm not sure," the bodyguard answered.
"Take a picture right now and send it to me! Hurry up!" Colin ordered.
