Chapter 1994

Isabel wrote a reply with the hand that was not aching, "Yeah, I’m home."

Flint asked, "I saw Roland helping you into the car, was he the one who sent you home?"

Isabel replied, "Yeah, I asked him to drive me home."

Flint lectured her. "Sis, I know that you’re the one who hired him. But don't forget that he's still the vice president of Carter Corporation at the end of the day. He's already busy enough with work, now you're troubling him with having to send you home."

Isabel grimaced. "It's along the way anyway."

It was true, Roland lived in the high-end residential area next to hers.

They first met on a fateful night a year ago. That night, she had just finished shooting a scene and was about to head home for a good night's rest when she nearly ran over Roland in the middle of the road.

It was in a remote part of the town that rarely saw any traffic. He had been waiting for his rental car for ages to no avail and ended up resorting to stopping the first carthat he could see.

At the time, his mother was slumped over the side of the road in critical condition.

Isabel and her assistant immediately helped his mother into the car and sent them to the hospital.

Fortunately, they arrived just in time to bring her mother back to life.
