"I guess so."
Being the eldest daughter of the Houstons, if Clarice left, Decker would lose the support and resources from the
Houstons.
With that, Clarice said coldly, "Roland is a wicked man."
Decker said softly, "It's okay. Just treat it as spam, forget about it. Go home and have a good rest. I'll never let
Roland get his way."
Clarice hummed a reply. She looked at him strongly and said, "Decker, I’ll always be by your side. If you run into any

She suppressed the emotional fluctuation in her and looked at him. "What?"
Roland pursed his lips. "You held your phone the wrong way."
Isabel looked at her phone's screen.
When she cast her phone onto the TV, it was locked, so it should be in the same direction.
However, the TV was showing an upside-down footage.
Her phone was rotated upside down and she had no idea because she cast it in a hurry just now.
She blushed.
Annoyed, she glared at him and argued, "I like watching it upside down."
He pursed his lips and smiled.
The smile on his face looked handsomely charming. He hummed, "Mhmm, hmmm."
