Dauntless God Of War

Chapter 249

Fireworks suddenly exploded in the air, finally attracting the attention of all the citizens in Dellmoor.

It was seven o'clock in the evening—a time when all the citizens had just finished their dinner. With the helicopters circling above the city, the screen on Larson Corporation's building, and the fireworks at the square, even those who were still working halted and looked up to the sky.

Isabella's eyes reddened, as she was moved by the performance.

That night, the whole of Dellmoor was buzzing with life like the night on New Year's Eve.

Marilyn had temporarily forgotten about the picture she had taken of Harold and a beauty in a Horington restaurant. She was so moved that she urged Isabella, “Give him a call!”

“Okay!” Isabella choked out, nodding at the same time.

The fuzzy feeling of being loved and cared for bubbled in her heart.

Harold had left a deeper impression on her mind, and the God of War had become less important to her.

Just when Isabella was about to dial Harold's number, he was already one step ahead and had dialed hers.

He stood outside Marilyn's house, looking up at Isabella, who was on the balcony.

“Darling, I'm here to pick you up. Please come down. I'm waiting right outside Marilyn's house,” he announced with a deep voice as soon as the call connected.

The moment Isabella heard that, she immediately glanced down from the balcony and met his eyes.

In an instant, Isabella felt as if she had been struck by electricity.

It was a magical feeling. They had only exchanged glances, yet the feeling was stronger than what she had felt at her grandmother's place when their bodies touched.

“Harold, tell me the truth. How much money did my dad give you? Helicopter, fireworks... How much money did you spend?”

Truth was, Isabella was extremely touched, and she wanted to respond with sweet words. However, her words came out differently from what she had in mind.

Cheesy words were not something she could bring herself to say, and she ended up asking Harold how much money he had spent.

“Bella, what... did you just say to Harold?” Marilyn gaped at Isabella when she heard her words.

She had thought Isabella would say something cheesy when she saw her tearing up. Never did she expect her to say something like that.

“I... don't know what happened. I-It just slipped out of my mouth,” Isabella stammered, not knowing how to explain the situation. With that, she hung up the call right away.

“What...” Marilyn was rendered speechless. I know she's never been in a relationship, but surely she's watched some dramas before?

“What should I do now?” asked Isabella, casting Marilyn an anxious glance.

“I don't know! He's already waiting for you down there. Just go with the flow.”

Marilyn was too embarrassed to give Isabella any advice when she saw Harold had arrived outside her house.

She let Isabella make her own decisions.

After mulling it over, Isabella gave Harold a call.

“Harold, I'm honestly quite touched by your gestures tonight, but some things need time. Can you give me some time?”

Isabella sounded as if she was pleading.
