A few days later, Isabella was released from the detention center.

“Behave yourself from now on. If you try to cause disturbances again, you will be detained for longer,” said the policeman.

Isabella’s face suddenly darkened.

The experience in the detention center was simply a nightmare for her.

In the past few days, she had thought about the whole thing like crazy.

At first, she believed that she had made a little difference, which caused some changes in

this life.

But she soon found that something was wrong. Why did Ben still manage to buy the land that was going to be developed although it was not the land selected by the Bureau of Land Management in the last life?

A thought flashed across her mind.

Could it be that Ben had played a dirty trick on her?

Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but tremble with fear.

No one knew better than her how formidable Ben was.

If he really started to deal with her, she would have no chance to survive in Coraland.

“It’s impossible,” Isabella comforted herself in a low voice, thinking that it had to be a

coincidence.

She managed to adjust her mood and decided to forget this experience at the police station and move on.

After leaving the police station, she booked a flight and returned to Anaville.

But as soon as she got off the plane, she was stopped by several burly men. Mr. Lynn walked up to her and said blankly, “Miss Smith, how have you been?” Isabella was shocked, but she feigned composure and asked, “Mr. Lynn, what are you

doing?”

Mr. Lynn looked at her with a smile and said, “Miss Smith, I just wanted to ask you when you’re going to pay back the 6 million dollars you borrowed from me.”

“A small error occurred when I carried out my plan, which makes me unable to pay back the money for the time being,” said Isabella.

“Is that so?” Mr. Lynn asked with a sneer, “Miss Smith, are you going to repudiate your debt?”

Hearing his words, the burly men took a step forward in unison.

Isabella, whose face darkened, said through clenched teeth, “Give me a grace period of one month. I will definitely return the money to you then.”

Mr. Lynn raised his eyebrows without giving an affirmative or negative answer.

“You don’t trust me even though I’m from the Smith family?” Isabella continued through clenched teeth, “Besides, I didn’t take the 6 million dollars for nothing. I exchanged it for information. What do you think Ben would think if I told him that you tried to find Susan’s weakness?”

Mr. Lynn frowned and looked at her coldly.

Isabella, who had calmed down, said, “I’m not going to repudiate my debt, and I just need one month’s grace.”

Mr. Lynn said slowly after gazing at her for a long while, “Well, I’ll give you one month. If you fail to pay back the 6 million dollars in a month, I’ll show you who’s the boss in this city. Although you’re from the Smith family, you don’t have a single relative or friend here. If anything untoward should happen to you, it will be even beyond the Lynn family’s ability to help you, won’t it?”
