Her face was pale, but it could not hide her stunning beauty. Long golden hair spilled over her pillow and shoulders, and an ancient-style necklace hung around her neck.
When he turned to look at the woman, that unmistakable hairstyle left Mu Chen staring in a daze.
Mu Chen was too shocked for words. "Her name is Isabella. She's my wife."
Mu Chen had never expected this. Dragon's wife was actually a Celestial Dragon? Wasn't this a little too melodramatic? Even Oda wouldn't dare write something like this. No wonder Dragon had hidden her so deeply.
Dragon walked to the bedside and sat down, taking Isabella's hand. "She used to be a Celestial Dragon, but she gave up everything to be with me. Still, it probably won't be long before the Celestial Dragons take her back."
At those words, Dragon's expression darkened immediately.
Isabella and Dragon had known each other for a long time. They first met at God Valley. Back then, Isabella had also been one of the Celestial Dragons' hunters, but she was kind-hearted and had not slaughtered a single slave. That was how she came to know Dragon.
When Isabella saw Mu Chen, she smiled faintly and spoke in a gentle voice. "Mu Chen, I've heard so much about you. Dragon often mentions you and says you're a trustworthy friend."
Faced with Isabella's praise, Mu Chen felt a little unaccustomed to it. Was he really that trustworthy?
Why had he never thought so himself?
Mu Chen collected himself and sat down nearby. "I really didn't expect Dragon's wife to be one of them."
After a pause, he still did not want to say those three words aloud. "But since Dragon chose you, you must be special. And you're so beautiful that even I might fall for you."
