Chapter 71

Isabella inexplicably panicked when she heard about it. She immediately

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.

She hung up the phone, confirmed the details with her colleague from the

contract department, and returned to her office while feeling uneasy.

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

Isabella to the opening banquet of a new store in Bleaktown.

“I won’t go. I’m exhausted these days, and my feet are still hurting.”

“It’s because you’re tired that you should come out and relax. Besides, you’ll

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.”

gift from Dariel and basically considered a future separation fee, which was

significant yet cruel for Natasha.

She gritted her teeth. “Fine. Wait for me then.”

“Great!”

“Wait.” Isabella remembered and asked, “Will Seth and the others be there?”
