Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 14

Isabella didn't know whether she should be happy or sad.

When they got married, Christian was particularly reluctant and added many marital conditions. But now, when she was willing to get divorce, he was unhappy again, which just confused her a lot.

Next morning, Isabella went to the bank and withdrew the money.

The 5 million cash filled two bags, which were a bit heavy. Isabella then directly went to the lawyer’s office. "Mr. Taylor, here is 5 million. It should be enough. My father’s case depends on you."The lawyer counted the cash and was relieved as well. "Yes, it’s enough. We just need to pay the illicit money. I’ll defend your father as best I can."

"Thank you." Isabella didn't know what to say, but thanked him repeatedly.

She was really grateful that her father knew such a good lawyer, who was still willing to take a case like this. Otherwise, she would have enough trouble just finding a lawyer.

"Isabella, Mr. Smith wants to see you in his office."

Just as Isabella returned to the company, she received a call from the CEO office. She then hurriedly went to Mr. Smith's office, and found that it was about a collaboration project.

Their company had a cooperative project with an investment giant, the Polygon Group. The negotiation would be held next Wednesday. However, as their representative was now lying in the hospital due to ectopic pregnancy, they wanted to send Isabella there.

"Me? Mr. Smith, you’re kidding me! " Isabella pulled a wry face, "I just know how to deal with data, but you asked me to negotiate. Isn't that just like throwing me under the bus? I've never done this before."

"Don’t worry. I would let someone to accompany you. Just do what the contract says." Mr. Smith smiled: "If there’s anyone has a better eloquence than you in our company, I wouldn’t be in such a pickle."

Mr. Smith showed the temptation before Isabella could say anything, "I'll give you twenty thousand dollars If you go, and your travel expenses will be reimbursed as well."

Tempt her by money? Very impressive.

Unfortunately, it happened that she lacked money!
