Chapter 1839: 442: Terrence Lentz: Suwen is actually our leader?!_3

If it had been before, Isla Astir would definitely have felt that Poppy Smith cared about her.

But now she wouldn’t.

Poppy had really observed closely, guessing just from Mandel Thompson’s clothes and appearance that he was not an ordinary person.

Poppy’s WhatsApp message came in again, "Isla, I’m telling you this so you don’t feel pressured, but you still need to be prepared for what needs to be prepared for, you should be ready to break up at any time. We are best sisters, that’s why I’m telling you so much."

Isla Astir took a deep breath, "Okay, got it, I’m going to work now."

"Alright, take care of yourself."

Isla didn’t reply again; she put down her phone, sat down in front of her computer, and started working with renewed vigor.

Brandon was right.

Poppy didn’t know how hurt and upset she was.

She should be happy, fortunate to see Poppy’s true face without any loss.

On the other side of the phone, Poppy clicked on Mandel Thompson’s profile picture and narrowed her eyes.

She was somewhat excited.

Because she had never expected that Isla’s boyfriend would be interested in her.

When Brandon took the initiative to add her on WhatsApp, she couldn’t have been more excited!

Being human, who wouldn’t want to marry a man with both wealth and looks?

She was just an ordinary person.

And being ordinary, she couldn’t escape convention.

Even though Mandel Thompson was her good friend Isla’s boyfriend, she hadn’t done anything to wrong Isla.

She hadn’t taken the initiative to add Brandon’s WhatsApp.

Nor had she called him.

It was all Brandon’s initiative.

If anyone was to blame, it was that Brandon’s love for Isla wasn’t strong enough!

And she was the one best suited for Brandon.

With that thought in mind, Poppy’s lips curved into a smirk.

A moment later, she took the initiative to send another WhatsApp message to Isla, "Isla, this time your boyfriend invited me for a meal. Next week, arrange for him to meet, and I’ll treat both of you."

She couldn’t approach Brandon just yet.

She had to make arrangements to meet Brandon through Isla.

Having something to lose made a man value what he had.

She didn’t want to be like Isla, allowing Brandon to love every girl he met, nor did she intend to be just Brandon’s girlfriend.

What she aimed for was to be Mrs. Thompson.

But Isla didn’t reply right away.

Poppy wasn’t in a hurry.

Because of work, Isla often took a long time to reply to her WhatsApp messages.

She thought Isla would reply by the next morning.

But...

No.

The next morning when she woke up, Isla’s chat was still blank.

Poppy narrowed her eyes.

What was going on?

Was Isla too busy?

Poppy sent Isla another sticker.

Still no reply.

About an hour later, Isla finally responded.

Hearing the WhatsApp notification, Poppy immediately checked her phone, but Isla’s reply somewhat disappointed her.

"He’s not free lately."

Poppy frowned slightly; typically, Isla wouldn’t reply like that.

Had she discovered something?

No, impossible!

Poppy responded, "Whenever he’s free, just arrange it with me."

Isla stopped replying again.

Poppy found Isla’s behavior a bit strange, so she went to the Astir family to find her.

Olivia Armstrong already knew Poppy and greeted her with a smile, "Poppy, are you here to see Isla?"

"Yes. Where is she?" asked Poppy.

Olivia continued, "Isla went to school."

To school?

Poppy frowned slightly; something seemed off.

In the past, if Isla went to school she would have told her.

But today...

She had said nothing.

Poppy sent several more messages to Isla.

Isla didn’t reply immediately and took a long time to send back a message: "I’m at school."

Poppy started to get anxious.

What exactly was happening?

With no other choice, she had to send a message to Brandon, "Is your girlfriend angry?"

But the next second, Poppy was stunned.

The WhatsApp screen displayed a message indicating she had been blocked by the other party.

She was blocked by Brandon?

But wasn’t Brandon interested in her?

What was going on?

At this moment, Poppy hadn’t realized that she had been played by Brandon.

Shortly after.

She received a notification that the group chat with three people had been disbanded.

Poppy immediately sent a message to Isla, demanding to know why she had disbanded their group chat.

Isla replied: "My boyfriend is too busy with work to answer your questions."

After sending this message, Isla fell silent again.

"Did I misunderstand something, Isla?"
