Chapter 188

Isabella sat motionless on the floor, feeling the dull pain on her forehead and

the burning sensation on her cheek. It caused a ringing in her ears. After a

while, her knees went numb. Suddenly, she heard movement outside the

door. Isabella instinctively lifted her head and stared at the door.

The door opened, and a man walked in. It was the same bodyguard she had

seen in the suburbs.

Jordan entered the room and noticed Isabella’s posture. He immediately saw

the swelling on her cheek and was surprised. Then, he lowered his head and

said, “Miss Symons.”

Isabella turned her face away and quickly wiped her tears. Then, with the

support of a flower stand, she struggled to stand.

Seeing her difficulty in moving, Jordon made a call to instruct someone to

bring a first aid kit.

Isabella had heard him address Seth as ‘Mr. Shaffer,’ so she assumed he was

not just an employee but likely someone from the Shaffer Family. Thinking

about it, she nodded politely and said, “Thank you.”

“You’re very polite,” Jordan said unexpectedly.

Isabella didn’t understand what he meant and looked puzzled.

Jordan leaned closer to her and said, “Mr. Shaffer went to sleep at 2.00AM last

night and woke up at 6.00AM today. He spent over six hours handling

company matters before taking a one-hour flight to have a meeting with

several dignitaries until the incident occurred in the suburbs.” He reported
