I Quit, Mr. Shaffer by Isabella Symons

Chapter 77

Isabella stood frozen in place while recalling her communication with her

assistant. They had spoken on the phone; she hadn’t recorded anything, and

the money had been transferred directly by the assistant without any explicit

indications or remarks.

Upon realizing the situation, she suddenly calmed down and spoke

mechanically. “Miss Shaffer, are you trying to vent your anger on me?”

“I invited you that day, but you didn’t come.” Lara justified herself and showed

no remorse.

Isabella’s lips twitched, and her smile was strained. “Can’t you let me go?”

Lara clicked her tongue. “Why are you saying that? I haven’t bullied you.”

“I understand. Thank you for teaching me a lesson, Miss Shaffer.”

“You’re welcome.”

After hanging up, Isabella was trembling with anger. She downed a large

glass of water and managed to gradually calm herself down after that.

Alex entered and was startled by Isabella’s expression. “What’s wrong with

you?”

Isabella sneered. “I’ve been played.”

Alex froze and then recalled. “Is it the issue with the Ghost?”

Isabella didn’t deny it, and her eyes were fixed on the ground. She silently

brought out a dark plan that she had intended to keep hidden.

She smiled at Alex with a distorted expression, which made Alex uneasy.

As Isabella walked out of the pantry, she calmly returned to her desk. She

opened a drawer to retrieve the deposit contract. However, the two pages
