Chapter 23 You Can Tell Me（2）

• "It's because I'm very happy," she whispered in a thin voice, smiling as tears continued to flow, and then, she hugged her cousin tightly. Aiden was surprised. He didn't quite understand his cousin's reasons; however, he didn't say anything else because he was afraid of making her cry again.
• Upon arriving at Isabella's cabin, she invited Aiden in and told him the story of her life.
• She told him everything that had happened: the death of her father, how she lived with her mother until she was diagnosed with cancer, and that, thanks to a small trust fund left by Albert, her father, Isabella was able to take care of her mother during the illness.
