Isabella set off in a good mood, but her spirits were dampened by that
announcement. Furthermore, after the car crash she had been involved in,
she didn’t dare to venture out on the roads. As a result, she turned off the
engine and went back upstairs to lie on her bed like a sloth until nightfall.
Natasha called and invited her out for dinner. Isabella had a lot to share with
her, so she went out and took the train to the restaurant. Natasha was
wearing a silver bodycon dress, and her hair was permed in a 90’s style. She
stood on the second floor of the retro tea shop, resembling a beautiful
statue.

When Isabella arrived, someone was flirting with Natasha. She smiled brightly
and took his name card, but as soon as the guy turned around, she tossed
the card into the bin.
Isabella clicked her tongue. “As charming as ever.”
Natasha shrugged and took the menu before ordering half of the options on

Isabella raised an eyebrow. “What’s the meaning of this?”

“Nothing.” Natasha rested her chin on her hands. “Renewed the contract with
Dariel. I don’t have to hold back when spending his money.”
Isabella was surprised. She couldn’t understand why Natasha and Dariel
stayed together despite everything that had happened. “I thought you said
you would break up with him.”
Natasha licked her lips and narrowed her eyes. Quietly, she said, “Who knows
what he’s thinking?”
She turned her head back and smiled at Isabella. “Never mind. If he wants to
jump into hell, then I hope he won’t break when he finally lands.”
Isabella resigned herself, but she was still worried about Natasha. “Natasha,
you’re two years older than me. Don’t-”
Natasha shushed Isabella and smiled seductively. “Don’t talk about
disgusting worms like him. Let’s talk about yourself.”

Isabella stopped talking about Dariel. Just then, the waiter brought the food.
Isabella had some tea as she spoke. She told Natasha everything from the
trip to Bleaktown to becoming the president of Nemotors. The only thing she
didn’t mention was Seth sharing a house with her.
Natasha’s eyes widened after listening. “The Zimmers sent killers after you?”
Isabella breathed a sigh of relief. She still shuddered at the thought. “I was
lucky to survive.”
Natasha’s face fell. She wasn’t as optimistic as Isabella. “And you’re still
getting involved in this mess. You’ll get yourself killed.”
Isabella knew that, but she really wanted this opportunity and couldn’t let it

Natasha clicked her tongue. “Do you want to be the president of Nemotors

Isabella had some tea and lamented, “You don’t get a free lunch every day. I
would take a bite even if it were poison.”

Natasha was speechless. She couldn’t criticize Isabella, so she blamed Seth
instead. “That guy’s a jerk. He gives you all the dangerous work while he
enjoys the fruits of your labor. The Zimmers are only under investigation, not
arrested. Getting involved in this mess is like being a sitting duck. He knows
that.”

Isabella smiled. “No pain, no gain. I wouldn’t have taken this opportunity if it
came without risk.”
Natasha pursed her lips. “You have a point.”
More food was served. The dishes were small, but they ordered a lot, so the
table was filled to the brim. The ladies kept chatting about various topics, and
afterwards, they felt better.
Natasha opened another bottle of wine and poured half a glass for both of
them.
“Don’t drink too much,” said Isabella as she swirled her glass. All she had was
a small sip. She was not a good drinker. One small sip felt like a dozen bottles
of beer to her.

cheeks burning, so she had to go to the restroom.
“Come back soon.” Natasha narrowed her eyes, slightly tipsy.
Isabella asked the waiter to keep an eye on Natasha while she went to the
bathroom. Her breath smelled like alcohol, but her mind was clear. She
eventually came out of the cubicle and stood in front of the mirror, fixing her
hair, but then, out of the corner of her eye, she saw two figures standing at
the entrance of the restroom.
They were burly and leaning against the wall, smoking. These were not the
kind of people who should be in a place like this. Alarm bells rang in Isabella’s
head. She texted Natasha before cautiously leaving. As she passed the men,
Isabella slowed down, and one of them extended his leg to block her.
“Did you have a nice dinner, Miss Symons?”

Isabella looked ahead. There were no waiters here on the path to the
restroom. She hesitated for a moment before running in the opposite
direction, shouting at the same time.

“Damn it!” The men exchanged a glance and quickly chased after Isabella.
Before Isabella could finish shouting, one of the men covered her mouth with
his hand, and she was pulled by her hair.
“You b*tch. Do you think you can run when we already have you?” The man
held Isabella’s hair and shook her head, causing her vision to blur. “Don’t
waste any time. Drag her in and teach her a lesson.”
