From Hatred to Passionate Love Amelia Hart

Chapter 654 I Made a Deal with Kelvin "No, you guys just don't get it!" Isabella snapped. "Once I give the full antidote and Lucy wakes up, Kelvin will never letgo! He's just stringing you along! He's so ruthless and hatesso much, there's no way he'd letoff the hook." Brandon sighed. "Why don't you trust me? Do you think I can't protect you?" "It's not that I don't trust you. I don't trust Kelvin!" Isabella shot back, still on edge. "Lucy's witchcraft is my shield, and it's also my way to make Penelope suffer. I'm not handing over the antidote!" Seeing she was still so stubborn, Brandon knew he couldn't convince her.

"Let's eat first," he said, changing the subject.

He headed towards the dining room, but Isabella didn't budge.

"What's wrong?" He turned back to her. "Aren't you hungry?" "How did you manage to bringback to the Walker family?" Isabella asked. "Will Kelvin letgo? Or have you cup with snew trick to deal with me?" Brandon stayed calm.

"I made a deal with Kelvin," he said. "That's why he lettake you away." "What kind of deal?" "I'll tell you after we eat." Isabella still didn't move.

"Isabella." Brandon walked back and took her hand. "Are you so wary of me? Even though there's no love between us anymore, we still have our bond, and all these years of feelings." He was so gentle, even holding her hand.

Isabella, who had always loved him deeply, felt her heart soften at these gestures. "Brandon." "I'm here. Now, in the Walker family, it's just the two of us. No one will disturb us, and no one will see you in your current state." Isabella couldn't hold back any longer and threw herself into his arms, tightly wrapping her arms around his waist.

"Brandon, I had already prepared myself to live in hell for the rest of my life, worse than death, but I never thought you could bringback to the Walker family and let us sit down and have a proper meal together." Her tears soaked Brandon's clothes. "Don't you hate me? I've done so many wrong things, been so vicious and selfish, completely different from what you imaginedto be. Why are you still so good to me? Why haven't you given up on me? My mom abandonedwhen I was little, and now even my dad is about to give up on me." Brandon replied, "Because you are the Isabella I watched grow up. You just made smistakes." He patted Isabella's head. "Everyone who makes mistakes deserves a chance to correct them." "What if I don't want that chance?" "You will want it." Isabella didn't quite understand what he meant by that.

If she didn't want the chance, who could force her? However, Brandon remained silent and guided her to a table laden with Isabella's favorite dishes.

"You probably haven't had a proper meal in a long time," Brandon said. "Con." He kept serving her food. Isabella took a bite, and her expression suddenly becstrange.

"What's wrong?" Brandon was puzzled. He took a bite himself and exclaimed, "What is this taste? It's awful!" He quickly rinsed his mouth and handed Isabella a glass of water. "Sorry, I..." But Isabella's eyes lit up. "Brandon, did you make this?" If you're loving the book, nel5sis where the adventure continues. Join us for the complete experience all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you! He hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Yeah." No wonder it tasted so bad! The blackened fish was actually sweet! He must have mistaken sugar for salt! "Let's just order takeout and replace all this," Brandon said. "This is inedible. I overestimated my cooking skills." He was about to toss the food.

But Isabella stopped him. "No, I want to eat it. I think it's delicious. Brandon, this is the first tyou've cooked for me!" She was genuinely happy and started eating heartily.

She didn't mind the weird taste at all! Brandon looked at her helplessly. "Don't get a stomachache. I should've tasted it myself before serving it." "Except for this fish, the other dishes are pretty good," Isabella praised. "For a first attempt, it's already great, Brandon!" She ate happily, and Brandon watched her with a smile.

It felt like old times, as if nothing had changed.

As she ate, Isabella's tears fell into her bowl.

"Isabella?" She said, "If I hadn't targeted Penelope, if I hadn't teamed up with Madison, Brandon, we wouldn't have ended up like this, right?"

After a moment of silence, Brandon replied, "I have to be honest with you, I don't want to deceive you isabella, the person i've always wanted to marry is her. If she hadn't cback, I would have chosen you. But once she returned..." He would break up with Isabella.

That was certain! "Why won't you even lie to me?" "I want us to be honest and open with each other," Brandon replied. "But Isabella, even if we can't be a couple in the end, I will still treat you like family." "I don't want to be family! I want to be your lover! The one who grows old with you!"

Brandon calmly replied, "Forget about being lovers, Isabella. With your current stubbornness, we can't even be friends. Everyone in LA knows you've offended Kelvin and avoids you like the plague, not even mentioning your name!"

"Then why did you bringhome? Why not cut ties with me? Why even cook a meal meal for mex Sabella asked. "By the way, what kind of deal did you make with Kelvin?" "Finish your meal first." "I'm full." Isabella put down her utensils and stared at him intently.

She had a bad feeling about this deal! But she couldn't figure it out! Brandon also slowly put down his knife and fork.

He asked, "Isabella, when it flares up, does it hurt?" "It's bearable," she replied. "The worst part is the half-hour after it ends. All the wounds and pain crushing back, tormenting the body and consuming the will." "It sounds terrifying, but in this world, there's no such thing as true empathy." Brandon met her gaze. "Only those who have experienced it firsthand can understand the pain you describe." "Experienced it firsthand." Isabella repeated the phrase over and over.

Suddenly, she thought of something and stood up in shock. "Brandon, did you..."
