Chapter 161 Isabel’s Wish
Is it Shopia or Lillian, Arthur thinks they now look very similar to Emilia and Gianna. If they somehow arrived at the Stage of Death, they would surely fight like those two young women.
"Shopia, don't be rough!" Riccardo's voice echoed from Shopia's phone.
Although he couldn't see anything, he knew that violence was taking place.
Meanwhile, Amanda handed Lillian's phone to her mother.
"Mom, look at this," she said.
When she saw the photo on the phone's screen, Shopia immediately took the phone and showed it to Riccardo.
"Do you see this, use your blind eyes, how does that whore have our photo?" She said loudly.
Riccardo squinted, unable to say anything.
As for Lillian, she remained silent even though her face looked like she wanted to curse Shopia because the latter had kicked her in the face.
The atmosphere became quiet for quite some time until Riccardo said, "let her go!"
His words made Shopia's face crumple, she replied, "don't think about it, she almost hurt me, now the evidence is complete, I will report her to the police."
"What?" Lillian immediately jumped.
However, she restrained herself from screaming. Instead, she began to cry. "Ric, p-please help me, I don't want to go to jail, remember how long our relationship has been..."
Her crying became louder over time. Although she was a venomous woman, when she cried, she really looked like a helpless little creature, something that could easily evoke pity from others.
Riccardo took a breath and said again. "Shopia, please calm down, we can talk this out!"
It seemed that the man really had deep feelings for Lillian. Maybe he really didn't care about what the woman wanted to do to his wife.
Unfortunately, Riccardo wasn't there and the people there were not at all affected by her crying.
Shopia looked at Amanda and said, "call your police friend, I want her to be jailed as soon as possible!"
Amanda also wanted to jail Lillian, so she quickly called her friend.
"No, wait!" Riccardo and Lillian said at the same time.
"Hmph!" Shopia snorted coldly. "You two really suit each other."
She then looked at Riccardo on her phone screen. "Of course, if you want to accompany her to jail, I have no objection at all. At most, I will just find a new husband."
"You?" Riccardo's mouth hung open.
Unfortunately, he couldn't say more because Shopia hung up the phone.
Phew!
Meanwhile, Amanda sighed after calling the police. She looked at Arthur and asked, "dear, do you think there's something wrong with my dad?"
Her voice was very soft, unable to be heard by Shopia and Lillian.
She asked that because she hoped there was some kind of disturbance from her father, not purely his choice. So far, he could be said to be a very good father, very attentive to his two daughters as if they were his most precious possessions.
However, when it came to her mother and Lillian, he was really like an idiot who didn't have eyes to see and a brain to think.
Arthur, of course, couldn't draw any conclusions because he only saw the man through a camera. He answered, "I can't see anything from here!"
After saying that, he took another step. He didn't want to meddle any more than that.

When it was almost evening, he arrived at his aunt's house.
Tonight, he didn't plan to do anything except meditate.
When he arrived in the living room, he saw Isabel typing on her laptop. The woman stopped typing when she saw him arrive. Her eyes looked him up and down, and suddenly, she smiled sarcastically, something that surprised Arthur because he had never seen his aunt show a smile like that to him before. He couldn't help but wonder if he had done something wrong.
Before he could figure it out, the woman said, "A young man who already has a beautiful woman, the more often he doesn't come home."
Hearing that, Arthur rolled his eyes. So that was the problem.
He pretended to cough as he answered, "Aunt, I do it because I have to take care of my business."
"Business? Don't joke with me, how busy your business is, I'm sure it's not even 5% of my busyness. Just say that you need to take care of your lust." She smiled even more sarcastically, exposing Arthur's lies and saying it directly.
Of course, in front of a woman like her, Arthur knew that lying was pointless, but he also didn't want to say anything else. It didn't matter if she mocked him, the important thing was that it didn't spread everywhere. 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝙚w𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝘦𝗹.c૦m
To make her stop, he changed the topic. "Aunt, how's your magic now, there's nothing wrong, right?" he asked.
Machines can break and living creatures can get sick. Magic, of course, can also experience certain damage, something caused by many factors, for example, because of a disturbed heart or mind.
Isabel shook her head. "I thought I was okay until now!"
She raised her finger, releasing some lightning bolts from it.
"Actually, I really want to unleash my power to the fullest, for example having an actual fight," she said.
If that was in the magical world, when you wanted to fight, you just needed to provoke anyone around you. Here, of course, that was impossible. You might have to find a group of criminals or go to the forest and fight wild animals.
Arthur thought his aunt might need to do something to really know how to fight using her magical power. 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢
While he was thinking, the woman said, "tonight, can you accompany me somewhere to unleash my power?"
It seemed that she had already decided to do it.
Arthur didn't mind accompanying her even though he had to cancel his initial plan to meditate.
"Alright!" He nodded. "Let's go to the forest. It's safer there. However, I want to take a shower first. And I think it's better for us to go after dinner so that our energy is sufficient!"
"No problem..." Isabel smiled, closing her laptop and standing up.
"I also want to take a shower," she said, taking a step ahead of Arthur.
