Chapter 36


    For once, Isabe felt affection for Lara. Thanks for


    the save. “This might be urgent. You should take it,


    Mr. Gates.”


    Simon smiled stiffly. He turned on the speaker


    before answering the call.


    “Simon?” Lara said, a little angry. Before Simon

    could say anything, she grumbled, “What took you


    so long?”


    Simon massaged his forehead and looked at Seth,


    resigned. “I was held up by something.”


    Everyone could see that Lara was the one courting


    Simon here. Lara clicked her tongue, and she


    relented. “I’m at the airport. Can you pick me up?”


    Go, go, go. Isabe wanted Simon to leave. Once he


    was gone, this game could not continue.


    Simon said gently, “I’m busy. My secretary will pick


    you up.” He sounded distant, however.


    Bethany whispered, “You’re heartless, Mr. Gates.”


    Chapter 36. N?ct a Pure Girl


    Lara shrewdly noticed her voice. Cautiously, she


    asked, “Is that a woman I hear?”


    Simon heaved a sigh, his eyes filled with


    impatience. He tucked his phone away and pushed


    his chair back, then he stood up. “Sorry, guys. It’s


    work, so I can’t stay.”


    “Work’s important. You should go.” Isabe was


    understanding. She broke free of Seth’s grasp and


    stood up to send Simon off.


    Darielughed and gulped half a ss of wine.


    “Work?”


    Simon shot him a dirty look. He had a resigned look


    on his face. Then, he took his jacket and left the


    room.

    Once he was gone, things got a little awkward.


    Gordon stood up and took the shirt off the chair. He


    came over to Isabe, looking upset. With that, he


    pulled her away from Seth.


    Isabe staggered and almost fell.


    “Calm down, Mr. Dunkstein. No one’s taking her


    away.” Bethany chuckled.


    Gordon huffed and looked at Seth, who was


    straightening his clothes out. “I wouldn’t be so sure.


    Some people love going after things they shouldn’t,


    after all,”


    He was forward, and Isabe froze up. She knew


    I


    Seth too well. He wouldn’t let anyone talk him down.


    Chapter 36 Not a Pure Girl


    Seth let his suit open up. He then lit a cigarette and


    took a deep hit. He frowned. Smoke swirled around


    his head, and he turned around while narrowing his


    eyes. “And how are you so sure I haven’t gotten the


    thing I want?”


    Dariel clicked his tongue. Bethany stuck her tongue


    out and looked at Isabe, surprised.


    Isabe looked calm, but she clenched her fists


    and held Gordon’s hand, stopping him from going


    ahead. “It’ste, Mr. Dunkstein. I’m hungry. Let’s grab


    something to eat.”


    Gordon realized Isabe was looking stiff. He held


    his fury back and red at Seth, then took Isabe


    and left. He mmed the door shut.


    Chapter 36 Not a Pure Girl


    Isabe felt a chilly gust of air blowing her down.


    Before the door could closepletely, she heard


    what Bethany said.


    “Where’d she used to work? Is she in this line of


    work too?”


    Isabe wanted to run back in and tell her that was


    not the case. She only used to be Seth’s secretary.


    However, she did not have the courage. Gordon


    was dragging her away. Even if he wasn’t, she didn’t


    have the courage to argue.


    Gordon hurried ahead and dragged her to a room,


    then flung the door open. Once they were inside


    the room, he turned around and pinned Isabe


    against the door.

    Silence fell upon the room. Isabe froze for a


    moment before frowning. “What is the meaning of


    this?”


    “Who are you to Seth?” Gordon didn’t turn on the


    lights. Isabe couldn’t see his face, but she could


    feel his fury.


    Isabe was patient. She put some distance


    between them and said honestly, “He was my boss.”


    Gordon paused for a moment, caught by surprise.


    He mused over his question and asked, “What kind


    of boss?” He wasn’t stupid. He knew how the


    workce worked. Some bosses and employees


    had extra rtions behind everyone’s back.

    Isabe heaved a sigh and stared at the ground.


    She said weakly, “That’s my past. I want to keep it


    private, so can you not ask too much?”


    Gordon was silent for a moment, then he chortled


    and let her go. “You wouldn’t even let me kiss you


    once. And I thought you were some sort of pure,


    innocent girl–you’re not.”


    The mockery was sharp enough to spear Isabe’s


    heart. He was telling her that even if she had quit


    her work as Seth’s secretary, she would never


    escape him.


    “Sorry for disturbing you.” Isabe looked up and

    The lights turned on. Gordon could see Isabe

    clearly. She looked cold and calm, and he regretted


    what he’d said earlier.


    “Can you leave? I’ll pay for the room myself.” She


    took out the member card from her purse and


    stuffed it into Gordon’s pocket. She then turned to


    the side so Gordon could leave. “Please.”
