Chapter 202 Isa's Story
"who is it?"
Perhaps realizing that the door was open but no one pushed it open to come in, the person inside asked in doubt.
The female voice sounded soft and weak, which was consistent with Gu Chaoxi's original guess about the character of Isa.
Gu Chaoxi took out a gold coin from his sleeve and handed it over with a smile.
"Thank you, go play."
"Thank you sister!"
After taking the gold coins, the boy immediately slipped away without caring what she was going to do.
I raised my hand and pushed open the door; the light inside was a little dim.
The girl who was originally lying on the bed also sat up at this time, with her hands on the pillow, as if holding something, looking at the door with some caution.
When she saw that there was a girl standing at the door, Isa relaxed her hands a little, but leaned back a little nervously.
"who are you?"
she asked.
Gu Chaoxi did not answer. Instead, he walked into the room and raised his hand to close the door.
Looking throughout the room, there were several layers of quilts on the bed and a pile of food on the table, but they seemed untouched.
"Going on a hunger strike to vent your anger will only hurt yourself and no one else."
She pointed to something on the table and sat down at the end of the bed.
This action startled Isa a little. She almost immediately knelt on the bed and pulled out a knife from under the pillow.
However, because she had not eaten for a long time, her complexion did not look very good.
Gu Chaoxi pursed her lips, lowered her head and took out Aesop's notebook from her waist.
"You, how come you have it?"
It seems that Isa is very familiar with this notebook.
She handed it over: "My name is Aisley, this is what Mr. Aesop asked me to give you."
Hearing the name, Isa began to tremble all over. The knife in her hand fell onto the bedding. She stretched out both hands to take the notebook.
It is obviously a very light notebook, but now it seems to weigh a thousand pounds.
Isa opened the notebook and read the contents quickly, tears falling unconsciously.
"Is he okay now?"
"He's fine, he's just worried about you." There's nothing wrong with that.
Although Aesop's current status is not very good, that day has not come yet after all, and Aesop is doing fine now.
However, what Gu Chaoxi was more curious about was the story between them.
There seem to be a lot of stories about Chris Wimmer.
"Iri is worried about you, too."
"What? Yili is on the boat too?" She was startled and looked up at Gu Chaoxi, clutching the quilt in her hands.
"My brother, he won't..."
"He doesn't know that Ellie is Aesop's sister." After all, even they had always thought that Ellie was Campbell's sister.
It seems that Aesop said this on purpose to protect Ellie.
Isa nodded, and her originally tense expression relaxed a little.
"But can you tell me about your past story?"
There seem to be many stories on the Chris Wimmer cruise ship.
Isa frowned and struggled for a moment, then she lowered her eyes to look at the book in her hands, and nodded after a while.
Actually, there is nothing that cannot be said.
When she and Aesop first met, Aesop had not yet become lonely like he is now.
At that time, Aesop could be considered a noble, but if divided by class, he would appear inferior.
But Isa has never cared about these things since she was a child. She thinks the most important thing in love is that two people can stay together. If you always use various external conditions to score two people, then there will be too few people in this world who are truly a good match.
They would go out for outings together, study together in the manor, or just go out for a stroll in a carriage when the weather was good.
At least, in Isa's opinion, the feelings between the two are sincere and strong.
But everything started to go wrong when his brother Melton came back from his studies.
Melton hated Aesop and thought he was just a small-time gangster from a small family.
Although Isa explained many times that Aesop was also a noble, Melton simply wouldn't listen.
He constantly made trouble for Aesop on various matters, and even stopped allowing Aesop to go out freely.
This made Isa feel that her brother was somewhat unreasonable.
However, the eldest brother is like a father, and Isa, whose father died early, could not go against Melton's request.
She was imprisoned in her home until a grand banquet at the Wilfors family, when she finally walked out of that door again.
It was also at this banquet that she met Aesop again, whom she had been thinking about day and night.
Aesop seemed a little listless at this time, even decadent. He had become a little thin due to being tortured by Melton.
Isa felt very sorry for her lover and wanted to have a good talk with him.
Unfortunately, Melton saw this scene. He was certain that it was this poor boy who kidnapped his sister, so he called people to beat Aesop up on the spot.
At that time, Aesop's family was experiencing a huge change. No one expected that after a banquet, Aesop dragged his tired body back home, only to be told that his family had gone bankrupt.
He had to sell everything he had to support himself, but even so, he sometimes had no food to eat.
For the first time in her life, Isa went against her brother Melton's wishes and secretly escaped from the manor.
Her feet were covered with blisters from the ground, and she fell again and again in the dark night before she found where Aesop lived.
The two star-crossed lovers hugged each other and cried bitterly. It rained heavily that night.
Isa said that Aesop would be her only lover, and if Aesop was gone, there was no need for her to live.
But the young couple's relationship did not last long. At dawn, Melton arrived with his men and took Isa away.
At the same time, Aesop was thrown into prison.
Melton and Wilfors had a close relationship, so it was not a big problem for him to imprison a down-and-out nobleman.
The feelings between the two did not fade away, and they even wanted to fight for each other.
Melton was also very angry with Isa. He would never allow his sister to like such a person.
Just when the Wilfors family was about to take the cruise ship to explore again, Melton came up with the idea of making Aesop a water ghost.
Wilfors naturally agreed, and Melton also brought his sister along.
His gradually twisted mind made him want his sister to see how his lover died.
Isa knew that Aesop had become a water ghost from Melton himself.
So, now she is not just relying on fasting to make Melton compromise, but also because she really can't eat.
She had been obedient all her life, and only this time she wanted to disobey Melton, but it led to the result today.
"Then do you know if Melton has any other plans?"
"what?"
Yisha wiped her tears and looked up at Gu Chaoxi.
"For example, the ship has deviated from its route and is heading somewhere else?"
She asked tentatively, but looking at the confusion on Isa's face, she realized that she didn't know much.
