Chapter 106

Since Isabella refused Seth’s “kind offer,” she was promptly kicked out of the

office. His actions were the epitome of killing the donkey the moment it was

As soon as she exited the room, she was met with Selena’s/chilling gaze. It

was as if the woman would want nothing more but to devour her in the next

The car exhibition was just around the corner. So, she had to stick to her

disappointed, he didn’t press further and agreed to meet after the exhibition.

Isabella returned to the office after ending the call. As it was close to the end

of the workday, most people were slacking off. Only Abigail flitted around like

identity. After she confirmed her identity, the person instructed her to bring all

financial reports to a hotel at 7.00PM tomorrow.

together, allowing all the dark monsters hidden deep within her mind to
