Chapter 637
Kim came in under the guise of visiting Isabella and Ollie.
When Kim arrived, Jocelyn and Landon happened to be there too.
Jocelyn had watched a good show of Kim and the Langley family at Lockwood family that day. When Jocelyn saw Kim, she could not help but raise her eyebrows.
Kim was holding a gift in her hand. As soon as she entered, Kim smiled kindly and spoke to Isabella.
"This must be Ollie. Ah, what a cute little baby!"
Ollie was being carried by Jocelyn. Kim leaned over and reached out to play with Ollie.
Ollie was silly. When someone teased him, he would smile sweetly.
Kim was stunned. She actually liked the baby a little.
"This kid is so cute!" Kim couldn't help but say.
Isabella smiled and did not say anything. She felt that Kim's motive for coming was not what it seemed to be. After thinking for a moment, Isabella understood the reason. Could it be that the Langley family was related to the Hudson couple causing trouble at their wedding?
Isabella thought about what happened at the Lockwood house that day. The Langley couple was chased out by Colin Lockwood. If the Langley couple was dissatisfied, it was very likely that they wanted to cause trouble.
Looking at Kim's fawning attitude today, Isabella knew that Kim probably did not have a good time with Draxton.
Just as this thought flashed through Isabella's mind, she heard Kim say, "Bella, I'm here today because I have something to ask of you.'
Isabella's smile was even gentler and kinder than Kim's. Isabella said, ' Kim, we're all family. Of course, I would help you.
"As long as it's for the good of the Lockwood family. You're an elder. As a junior, I'll definitely listen to you."
Kim was speechless.

Kim looked at Isabella awkwardly. When Kim met Isabella's gentle and quiet gaze, Kim could not spit out the words that were about to come out of her mouth. Isabella looked at Kim quietly and smiled.
Kim could not say a word.
After all, Kim was a head of a family, and she could manage it. Even though Kim was angry and embarrassed, she gritted her teeth and said, "Bella, I came today to look for you for a private matter." Isabella pretended to be surprised. "Private matter? Could it be that you want to borrow money?"
Kim was speechless again.
Kim was utterly embarrassed.
Kim gritted her teeth in anger. But Kim had no choice but to put on a smile and say, "Bella, do you hear yourself? No matter what, I won't borrow money from you.
"I am..."
"Ah!" Isabella slapped her forehead. "Ollie is crying. I'll go and see if he peed."
Betty and Ricky, who were sitting on the sofa in the corner, immediately looked up and craned their necks. "What? Ollie is crying?"
However, all they heard were giggles.
Jocelyn held Ollie and was immersed in Ollie's cute laughter. When Jocelyn heard Isabella say this, Jocelyn could not help but roll her eyes and glare at Isabella. The baby didn't cry, but Isabella had to say so.
Couldn't Isabella find another excuse?
"Come, baby, let mommy hold you."
Ollie was in Isabella's arms. When he felt his mother's smell, Ollie smiled even more happily.
Isabella said, "Ah, this kid is really difficult to calm."
Kim was wordless.
"Do you think I'm blind or deaf?" Kim thought to herself.
Ricky and Betty looked at each other and were instantly filled with sympathy. It was so hard to be Ollie. Not only did Ollie have to make his mother happy, but he also had to be framed by his mother. Kim's words were stuck in her throat again.
The expression on Kim's face was a little awkward. Isabella clearly did this on purpose.
Kim was not stupid. She had already guessed that Isabella was deliberately preventing her from saying anything.
However, since Kim was here, she could not have come for nothing.
Kim stood up and said, "Bella, I won't beat around the bush with you. I'll be straightforward."
Kim said loudly, "Bella, I beg you to help the Langley family. As long as you say it, the relationship between the Lockwood family and the
Langley family will still be the same as before."
Isabella's back was facing Kim. Isabella could not help but roll her eyes.
Jocelyn looked at Isabella in amusement.
Isabella gently rocked Ollie in her arms as she watched Ollie happily prepare to fall asleep again. Isabella's expression became even gentler. When Isabella turned around, Isabella said to Kim, Kim, isn't the Lockwood family and the Langley family in-laws?
"As long as uncle and you don't get a divorce, this relationship will never change"
"Of course, it can change. Bella, I know that you do understand. Draxton is angry now and wants to terminate the collaboration with the Langley family. Bella, I beg you, don't ask Draxton to do this."
Kim did not dare to mention that the Langleys were the ones that had the Hudson couple come to cause trouble at the wedding.
Isabella looked at Kim sympathetically, and her expression became indifferent. "Aunt Kim, you came to me because you think I'm easy to talk to?"
Kim's expression was a little stiff. "Bella, we're both women from the Lockwood family. I think you should understand my difficulties."
"Your difficulty is that you want to use the Lockwood family to gain benefits for the Langley family.
"Kim, after so many years, the Langley family must have accumulated a lot of wealth with the help of the Lockwood family. Right?
"One could not be too greedy. Of course, there was nothing wrong with being greedy.
"In my opinion, it is worth respecting that the Langley family is now untied from the Lockwood family. The Langley family is independent." Being independent was nothing.
Kim gritted her teeth. Bella, help me this time. I will definitely remember your kindness in the future."
Isabella felt that Kim was truly helpless.
Kim looked at Isabella expectantly. Seeing that Isabella refused to nod, Kim gritted her teeth and knelt down. "Bella, I am begging you!'
Isabella immediately held the child and dodged.
Isabella's expression also turned cold.
Isabella looked at Kim coldly and said, "Kim, you are my aunt. Don't make me look down on you.
"You're right to want to help your family.
"However, look at you now. Do you still look like the wife of the second-branch patriarch of the Lockwood family?
"You're one of the Langley family, but you're also a member of the Lockwood family.
"What position are you on to ask me to intercede for the Langley family? Just because the Langley family asked someone to cause trouble at my wedding?
"Let me give you a piece of advice. It's a good thing for the Langley family that the Lockwood family terminated their cooperation.
"You should be glad that Draxton did not do anything to the Langley family on your account."
Kim's face stiffened.
Isabella stopped beating around the bush and said directly, "Kim, you should go back. You should pay the price for your mistakes.
"It's already a kindness that I didn't cause trouble for the Langley family. If you want me to plead for the Langley family again, I really don't
understand what you're thinking. Do you think I'm a saint?"
Kim's face instantly darkened.
Kim looked extremely humiliated. She knew that there was no point in saying anything more. Kim simply stood up from the ground and walked out without looking back. Kim happened to bump into Draxton and Elodia, who had just returned.
Seeing Elodia, Kim immediately felt that she had found an outlet to vent the cold treatment and humiliation she had suffered today.
Kim raised her hand and slapped Elodia.
Kim's action was so sudden that no one had expected it.
Elodia was stunned.
Elodia had been slapped for no reason, and tears welled up in her eyes. Elodia was angry and aggrieved, and her entire body was trembling.
"Hmph." Kim glared at Elodia coldly and was about to leave in her high heels.
"Elodia, slap her," Isabella said sternly with a cold expression.
When Elodia heard Isabella's words, she subconsciously slapped Kim.
Slap!
Kim was also stunned.
