Chapter 152: She Must Have the Ability to Protect Herself
"Isabe, do you have timetely? I''d like to have dinner with you."
It had been a while since theyst met, but Isabe knew that Emanuele was reluctant to let her go
out, especially with Frederick keeping an eye on her.
"Sorry, Evelyn, I''m in danger recently. To avoidplicating things for you, let''s not meet for the
time being."
She believed Evelyn would understand her situation.
After a while, Isabe received a reply from Evelyn: "Understood."
She couldn''t help but furrow her brow. Evelyn''s words seemed strange now. Even though the
conversation matched their usual topics, and the ount information confirmed it was Evelyn,
Isabe felt like Evelyn''s phone had been stolen.
Previously, Isabe could sense Evelyn''s emotions even through messages. However, now, Isabe
couldn''t feel Evelyn''s emotions anymore. Maybe it was because they hadn''t met or talked much
lately, and their rtionship had be somewhat unfamiliar. Isabe thought they would meet
again once the crisis was over.
Thinking about it, Isabe couldn''t help but miss her past life. Back then, after leaving the hospital,
she would go out to eat with Evelyn, go shopping, and discuss work at the hospital. Despite the
asional sadness and sorrow in those ordinary days, it was much better than the current life of
constant danger.
She knew she was drifting further away from her previous life. Although she didn''t want to, she had
no way to escape this environment. Since there was no way to leave, she decided to ept
everything calmly.
In her current state, she would strive to adapt to this life. At least in this dark world, she needed to
have the ability to protect herself.
She cherished her life, especially after the shadows brought by Chloe had disappeared. Yet, she
couldn''t fully trust even the bodyguards around her. They couldn''t protect her 24/7, and who knew if
she might be attacked in some unnoticed corner?
Since Emanuele''s enemy was so formidable, and Emanuele hadn''t even found the enemy''s hiding
ce after such a long time, it indicated that if he were genuinely intent on killing her, Emanuele
might not be able to protect her.
For Emanuele, she was just a toy. He probably wouldn''t go to great lengths to protect her.
Therefore, she had to learn to protect herself.
Now that Isabe''s training was almostplete, she spent less time at the base. Most of the time,
she stayed in the apartment.
Her life hadn''t changed much.
Watching reality shows, chatting with Grazia, and enjoying the videos and photos Sophia sent her
from her journey.
Their lives became exciting after leaving Chicago, and Grazia''s tone sounded much happier. She
even said she would send Isabe some clothes.
Ro and Grazia''s married life seemed to be bing happy and sweet, which reassured
Isabe.
But what made her happiest was her improvingbat skills.
Two more days passed, and Isabe officially graduated. Elisa congratted her, saying,
"Congrattions, ma''am. As long as you remember these moves, I believe you will need them
someday."
Tony, in charge of teaching Isabe shooting, also praised her, saying, "Your marksmanship now is
more than sufficient to handle sudden situations."
"I know. Be careful from now on. Maybe I''ll be stronger than you someday," Isabe said,
holding the Glock pistols that Emanuele had given her. Initially, she was quite repelled by them,
feeling like she had fallen into an abyss. Now, they were her beloved toys.
"Then let me congratte you in advance. Maybe you''lle to protect us in the future."
Feeling good after returning home from the base, Isabe nned to cook a dinner for Emanuele.

However, as her car was driving on the road, there was suddenly the sound of gunfire ahead. Harry
immediately pressed Isabe''s head down.
"Not good, an ambush!"
Even a grenade was thrown in their direction andnded right next to the tire of Isabe''s car. Their
cars were specially designed with thick bulletproof ss, but the grenade still easily blew out their
tire.
The car shook violently, and Tony couldn''t control it. The car came to a stop.
"Get out of here," Tony shouted. He opened the car door, letting Harry take Isabe to another car.
Thankfully, due to Emanuele''s concern for Isabe''s safety, she was always apanied by over a
dozen bodyguards during her outings. Now, because of themotion, these bodyguards rushed
out and started a gunfight on the deserted street.
Harry escorted Isabe out of the car. Just as they emerged, a bullet came their way. If Harry hadn''t
quickly pulled Isabe down, she might have been hit.
Damn it! They were after Isabe.
Everyone knew they had to protect Isabe.
Fortunately, Isabe''s mentality was strong. Whether it was because of her experiences or her
training, she remained calm andposed, following closely behind Harry without any sign of
panic. They quickly ran to another car nearby.
This car was still intact since the enemy''s attention was clearly focused on the car Isabe was in.
As they got into the car, and before the door was closed, Isabe saw someone not far away aiming
a gun in their direction.
Isabe immediately raised her own gun and fired at the person.
Bang!
The person''s head exploded from the gunshot, not even having time to struggle before copsing
on the ground.
The smell of gunpowder spread, and Isabe felt it fill her chest.
"Well done, ma''am," Harry said excitedly. "You''re the bravest woman I''ve ever seen."
Although their mafia had quite a few women, they were entirely different from Isabe. He still
remembered the first time he saw Isabe; she was like a rabbit-cute, fragile, with no ability to harm
anyone.
But now, she was firing a gun with exceptional precision. She was so brave!
Harry stepped on the gas, and the car quickly elerated like a rocket.
There were still continuous sounds of gunfire outside. Isabe was worried, "Will they be okay?"
The enemies were here to kill her, and she didn''t care about them, but she was concerned about
Tony and the others.
"Don''t worry, I''ve called for backup."
Isabe frowned, "They''ve be so bold, daring to attack us on the street."
These Sicilians always seemed to enjoy making their moves in public ces. Thest time it
happened was in a restaurant, putting many innocent people at risk. Now, it was on the streets.
Fortunately, it was a deserted road, so no innocent bystanders would be harmed.
But Isabe was still very angry.
These bastards, these demons, deserved to go to hell!
