Chapter 431
“The wound has reopened. Fortunately, there’s no infection. The primary concern is
blood loss, so he must avoid excessive exertion.”
As she stood by the side, Isabe couldn’t help but ask the doctor, “Are you sure?”
She wondered as she observed Seth, who appeared on the verge of death. Is the doctor
certain that all Seth needs is rest?
The doctor pushed up his sses and emphasized once again, “There’s no need to
worry too much.”
Isabe nced at Seth on the bed and fell silent.
After the doctor left, both Henry and Jordan disappeared.
She sat down, feeling as if a huge weight had been lifted off her shoulders.
With each passing chaotic day, she found it increasingly difficult to endure.
Seth, under sedation, drifted into a deep sleep. Nevertheless, the phone downstairs
persistently rang without stopping.
Ariana, in particr, proved to be exceptionally perceptive, quickly sensing that
something was wrong, leading her to make repeated calls.
Henry brought the phone to Isabe several times, but she kept rejecting the calls.
Finally, she couldn’t stand it anymore and answered.
“Ms. Years, do you have something in mind for Mr. Shaffer? He’s busy with me at the
moment, and he doesn’t have time for your nonsense. With so many vice presidents in
thepany, why must you bother him?”
Sheunched a barrage of verbal attacks, denying Ariana any chance to retort.
Suddenly, she ended the call, leaving Henry dumbfounded.
“Miss Symons?”
Isabe massaged her temples. “Let’s leave it at that for now.”
She had been tense all morning and was on the verge of exploding. She didn’t want to
adhere to any of her usual conservative principles.
Once Henry left, she copsed onto the couch, closing her eyes from exhaustion.
The room was quiet, making it easy to fall asleep.
Isabe was awakened by the ringing of her phone. She squinted and looked arou
finding Seth still lying quietly on the bed.
She let out a sigh of relief and turned to find her phone.
In a daze, she answered the phone and heard the voice of the woman on the other end.
“Be, where are you?”
It was Natasha’s voice, clearly sniffling.
Isabe jolted awake. “Natasha, what’s wrong?”
“I’m at a bar on Brusell Road. Can youe find me?”.
Without thinking, Isabe agreed, “Wait for me. I’ll be right there.”
She had a hunch that something had happened. If something could make Natasha cry,
it was definitely not a small matter.
She grabbed her coat and took a look at Seth After a brief moment, she went over to
check his breathing.
Hmm, he’s still alive.
Feeling reassured, she turned and left.
Once she stepped outside, she realized that it was already dusk.
She drove Seth’s car and quickly headed toward Brusell Road.
The bar Natasha mentioned was considered high-end in the area. Although it couldn’t
As soon as Isabe entered the bar, she saw Natasha surrounded by a group of young
men, boisterously ying dice.
She shooed everyone away and found Natasha with her head down, making it hard to
tell if she was drunk.
“Natasha,” she called out.

Natasha slowly lifted her head.
“Your face!” Isabe widened her eyes, her gaze falling on Natasha’s left cheek..
Near her eye, there was arge red and swollen area with scratches. Upon closer
inspection, there were bloodshot veins in her left eye.
Natasha propped up her chin. “Yeah, I got hit.
Isabe’s first reaction was Dariel. “How dare he hit you?”

Natashaughed and flipped her hair. “If he hit me, I’d kill him.”
Isabe was puzzled. If it isn’t Dariel, who else would have the audacity toy a hand
Natasha with such intensity?
“She went to Princeton to search for him, and I couldn’t restrain myself. I pulled her
away from the bed.”
