During the one-hour flight, Seth took a short nap, while Isabe found it
difficult to sleep. As someone ustomed to always being on standby due
to her professional background, she felt the need to repay Seth for saving her
life the day before. Consequently, she remained on edge throughout the
journey, closely monitoring his sleep.
When the flight finallynded, Briana tried to attach herself to Seth once
again. Despite feeling physically drained, Isabe stepped in to protect Seth
as he entered the car. She dismissed Briana, assuming Seth had left, only to
be surprised by Jordan waiting in the airport parking lot. “Miss Symons, Mr.
Shaffer is waiting for you in the car.”
Confused, Isabe had various thoughts racing through her mind. Despite
her alertness, she got into the car.
Seth had his eyes closed. Hearing the sound of the car door being opened,
he slowly opened his eyes.
“Mr. Shaffer, are you looking for me?” Isabe obediently leaned against the

door, keeping some distance from him.
Noticing her subtle behavior, he couldn’t help but frown. “Am I going to eat
you or what?”
Speechless, Isabe nervously moved a bit closer and exined, “I’ve been
making a lot of foolish mistakestely. I thought being close to you might
upset you.”
Seth snorted before turning to look at her. “I thought about itst night…”
Her nerves were on edge. Fearing that he was going to change his mind, she
couldn’t help but look up.
He continued, “Giving you money is pointless. You have an insatiable
appetite. Even if I give you 15 million, you’d still want more money.”
Isabe was lost for words, Seth wasn’t wrong-she did love money. Only the
digits in her bank ount would make her feel secure.
“Isabe.” He leaned closer and gently stroked her face, his voice soft and

bewitching. “I can give you an ATM that never runs out of money. Interested?”
She was stunned. Feeling somewhat baffled, she dully shook her head.
He raised an eyebrow. “Why?”
She replied, “There’s no such thing as a free lunch.”
“You’re smart.” He leaned over, unabashedly nting a kiss on her lips.
Isabe’s eyes widened, and she shrank back. “Mr. Shaffer!”
“Hold on.” Seth nced sideways at her. He said, “Just hear me out. It’s just a
kiss, no harm done.”
She froze, unmoving.
Seth sat up, his eyes looking straight ahead, his thin lips slightly parted. “The
Shaffer Group will acquire Nemotors, and I’ll appoint you as Nemotors’ new
CEO. As long as you can make thepany profitable one yearter, I’ll give
you five percent of its original shares.”

Isabe was astonished. Thinking she had misheard him, she looked up at
him, asking, “The CEO of Nemotors?”
Leaning back, he nonchntly responded, “It’s just apany worth over 150
million. Surely, you’ve got the skills to handle it.”
Her mind was in turmoil. The man’s unexpected revtion caught her off
guard, leaving her a bit dizzy, even though she was on high alert. “There are
strings attached, right?” It was the only question that came to her mind.
He raised his hand and tapped her forehead with the back of his hand.
“There’s one condition.”
Isabe swallowed hard. “Tell me about it.”
“Be my personal assistant,” Seth proposed.
She was confused. This condition wasn’t quite what she had imagined; it
seemed rather too easy. Don’t you already have Mr. Wace as your
assistant?”

“There are things that he can’t handle.” He nced up, his eyes flickering as
his gaze swept across her face.
A chill ran down Isabe’s spine as she instantly recalled some memories.
“No.”
Understanding her apprehension, Seth scoffed disdainfully. “You’re

overthinking it. Bedroom activities aren’t the only thing Ollie can’t do.”
Her cheeks burned with embarrassment. She froze instantly, her neck tense
as she bowed her head.
“I just need you to be avable when I need you and apany me to
important events,” he exined calmly and presented it reasonably. He
concluded, “Once my office finds someone who can genuinely take over, you
can step down from your role as my personal assistant right away.”
Isabe thought something was off; the job seemed too easy. Mustering her
courage, she looked up and asked, “As your personal assistant, my job
doesn’t include involvement in your nighttime activities or anything like what
happened just now… right?”

Seth frowned, exercising his patience. He replied grumpily, “Yes, that’s right!”
She became even more confused. To her, it felt like a gift falling from the sky.
“Don’t be ungrateful. This is thest chance I’m giving you.” The man’s face
suddenly fell with a hint of intimidation. He said coldly, “If you don’t want to do
it, you can get out and find someone who can protect you in Imperia.”
Isabe fell silent, realizing there wasn’t much of a choice. “Sorry, I was just
too surprised.”
Seth snorted. “Good that you know it’s a gift falling from the sky.”
Her hands clenched into fists. She asked, “May I ask why?”
He nced at her and replied in a harsh tone, “You found a sessor who’s
only interested in seducing me in every possible way, and now you’re asking
me why?” He narrowed his eyes and said icily, “Isabe, sometimes I doubt if
this is a deliberate escape route you’ve set for yourself.”
