Chapter 71

Isabella felt frustrated. She didn’t want this deal at all; it was pushed to her by

Lara, yet now it seemed like she was the one chasing after it.

Natasha suddenly called when it was almost time to get off work. She invited

be taking a car and not walking. What does it have to do with your foot pain?”

Natasha’s tone carried excitement. “Come on. It’s an important moment. You

have to come to witness it.”
