Chapter 2173
Odell looked at Isabel.
He remembered that Isabel voted against Roland when he applied for the position of director-general of Carter
Corporation.
At that time, if it were not for him overseeing the matter, Roland, a genius in business, would have been lost
because of the ignorant Isabel.
However, one thing was for certain: Although she and Roland knew each other at that time, they should be no
different from strangers.
No, to be precise, she thought of Roland no different than a stranger.
As for how they got together, it was most likely that they slowly got together as time passed.
Just then, Sylvia asked, "How is your mother?"
Roland replied, "My mother is in good health now, thanks to Isabel saving her in time. Thank you for your concern."
When he said this, he seemed to deliberately glance at Isabel.

She did not expect Liam to remember something that happened so long ago.
She almost forgot that she had accidentally saved his mother.
Roland answered any question he was asked. Maybe it was because he was too sincere when speaking, but Flint did
not try to spite him anymore.
Aunt Tonya brought out snacks and drinks.
Isabel ate while chatting, and glanced at Roland from time to time.
He sat next to Flint, took the tea that Flint handed to him, and drank slowly.
Once in a while, Sylvia, Liam, or Flint would mention him in conversation, and he would answer.
The atmosphere was more harmonious than expected.
Seeing that Roland was clearly not as nervous as before, Isabel also completely relaxed.
Unknowingly, it was late at night.
The baby was sleepy and was used to being nursed before bedtime, so he started crying in Caprice's arms.
Liam touched the little guy's chubby face and whispered to Caprice, "You take him back to the room to rest first. I'll
join you soon."
Caprice knew that he still had something to say to Roland and hummed, then said to Sylvia and Isabel, "Mom and
Isabel, I'll take the baby back to the room."
Sylvia said, "We'll go up with you."
Then, she pulled Isabel up as she spoke.
Isabel was stunned and looked back at Roland.
Roland smiled faintly at her, signaling for her not to worry.
Isabel smiled at him and went upstairs with Sylvia and Caprice.
The living room soon became quiet.
Aunt Tonya set up the teacups and also left the living room.
Odell raised his cup and took a sip of tea.
Flint toyed with a car key.
Liam looked at Roland and said, "I heard that you're Mr.
Bright."

Liam was suspicious. "Why didn't you tell us earlier?"
Roland obviously did not understand Liam's suspicions and replied seriously, "Because Mr. Carter and you never
asked."
Odell, who was drinking tea, curled his mouth.
Liam could not help but laugh. "We didn't ask, but why didn't you tell us?"
Roland said, "It was just an alias. There was nothing to say."
'Mr. Bright' was very amazing, but that reputation was brought about unintentionally by his side occupation.
He wanted to marry Isabel. Just 'Mr. Bright' was not good enough for her.
Liam pursed his lips speechlessly.
If Roland had let Odell know that he was 'Mr. Bright', Odell would not have been so determined to separate him
from Isabel.
Liam did not know what to say and simply looked at Odell.
Odell put down his teacup and looked at Roland. "Did you get Rockwell Corporation back?"
Roland met his gaze. "Yes.1
