Gordon turned around and saw Isabe’s calm
expression. He shrugged and suddenly aimed the
pressure washer gun at her. “We’ll call it even if you

let me shoot you with this. How about that?”
With an ambiguous expression, he deliberately
emphasized certain words, making his implication
very clear.
The few mechanics nearby kept ncing their way,
clearly enjoying the show.
Isabe was dressed professionally, and it would
definitely reveal her figure underneath it once her
outfit got wet.
“You mean we’ll call it even once you shoot me with
the pressure washer gun?” She pretended not to
understand and looked up at Gordon with innocent
eyes. Her gaze made Gordon’s heart itch.

Surprise shed in Gordon’s eyes as he tilted
backward. “Yes.”
“Okay.” Isabe walked to an open space in front of
the shop’s door, holding her bag in front of her. “Go
ahead. Shoot.”
She was so calm about it that it made Gordon
hesitate and suddenly didn’t know where to aim
the gun.
“Mr. Dunkstein, don’t chicken out.”
“It’s just one shot, so don’t miss it, or you’ll regret it.”
The Voicesing from around them were filled
with yful banter. They encouraged Gordon and
forced him into a position where he had no choice

but to fire the gun.
“Shut up, all of you!” Gordon snapped, then pointed
the gun at Isabe. Though he didn’t specifically
aim at any particr spot, his earlier inappropriate
thoughts suddenly dissipated, especially when
meeting Isabe’s pristine eyes.
Damn it! He cursed inwardly, then pressed the
trigger.
The pressure washer gun was too powerful, and
the jet of water it produced could scale a fish, let
alone how painful it would feel when hitting a
person.
Just as Gordon pressed the trigger, Isabe
screamed and covered her head while crouching

down.
As soon as Gordon heard the scream, he wasn’t
even sure if he had hit her but quickly dropped the
water gun.
Isabe’s hair was drenched, and she sat on the
ground, her face ghastly pale.
The onlookers fell silent. Someone whispered, “I
think it hit her head.”
“Her head?” Gordon was also rmed and helped
Isabe up. “Are you okay?”
Isabe shook her head, looking dazed. “I’m fine.”
Her voice was hoarse, clearly indicating how
frightened she had been

frightened she had been.
Gordon regretted it immensely, thinking that he
shouldn’t have yed such a joke on her. Then, he
pulled her to the car. “Let’s go to the hospital and
get a full check–up done on you.”
Isabe was pulled away, and though her voice
was trembling as she rejected Gordon’s help, her
eyes were clear as water. Just now, she deliberately
squatted down so that she wouldn’t get hit by the
water pressure gun. Even the water that dampened
her hair was water droplets that fell after the gun
missed its aim.
Without thinking too much about it, Gordon picked
Isabe up in his arms and ced her in the

passenger seat. Then, he stepped on the
elerator and sped to the hospital. Along the
way, he nced into the rearview mirror at her and
noticed she seemed weak. Moreover, her wet hair
stuck to her face, making her seem particrly
alluring.
Gordon kept cursing deep down, secretly thinking.
that he was possessed, or he would not have
bumped into this vixen of a woman.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Gordon had probably
forgotten he had nned to cause trouble for
Isabe because he started to help her register for
a checkup and arrange all sorts of tests. That was
something he had never done in the past twenty or
so years.

Finally, after all the tests were done, the doctor said
it was something between the lines of a minor
concussion.
Meanwhile, Isabe discreetly rolled her eyes. She
didn’t even get hit, so how was she to get a minor
concussion?
Pretending to be weak, she refused Gordon’s
request to have an IV drip. “No, thank you. I need to
get back. It’s almost the end of the month, and I’ll
be at the bottom if I continue to ck off.”
Gordon clicked his tongue. “What’s there to be
afraid of? How about I buy two more cars from
you?”

“That won’t do.” Isabe looked horrified as she took
a step back. “You’ve already been so generous
about not pursuing the matter of your leaking car,
so I can’t trouble you further.”
Gordon would have been fine if she hadn’t
mentioned it, but when she did, it made him feel
slightly uneasy. That was because he deliberately
drove his father’s car recklessly the night before,
taking it off–road to piss off the old man. When he
saw the severe damage this morning, he thought
about implicating the dealer in the mess. Little did
he know he would run into such a woman he was
so satisfied with.
“It’s just a car worth hundreds of thousands. It’s
nothing,” he said casually, but seeing the hesitation.

on Isabe’s pale face, he couldn’t help but want to
impress her.
“I’ll go back with you and ce an order right
away.”
Not expecting him to make a decision so quickly,
Isabe was excited but also a little worried. Taking
advantage of a rich man like him wouldn’t be easy,
and she didn’t n on finding another Seth Shaffer.
She stood up, casually pushing back the wet
strands of hair clinging to her cheeks and coughed
twice. “Mr. Dunkstein, I see that your car is still new,
so it’s really not necessary to waste that amount of
money.”
While staring at her, Gordon thought every move

she made seemed very graceful. Forget about two
cars; he could even consider giving up half his life
for her right now.
Without giving him a chance to speak, Isabe took
out her phone. “How about we exchange contact
information? When you need to buy a car next
time, you can consider contacting me first.”
This was the best way to deal with this matter as it
kept their connection and left some wiggle room
for both parties.
In the meantime, Gordon was pleasantly surprised
because he had been thinking about how to get
Isabe’s contact information. He didn’t expect she
would make that suggestion herself. Therefore, he

quickly recited his phone number, and Isabe
called him. The atmosphere immediately eased up.
Once they left the hospital, Gordon insisted on
driving Isabe back despite her repeated refusals.
This time, he drove carefully back to the car retail
store.
