Chapter 2020
"Yes. I have what it takes to get the Carter Corporation on my side," Isabel declared with steel in her voice.
"Heh." Decker chuckled dismissively before interrogating her, "What exactly is it that you have that Carter Corporation would be willing to help you?"
He sized her up a few times upon raising this question.
Isabel squinted. "Keep staring at me like that and I'll poke your eyes out. Want to try me?"
Her voice was ferocious.
Deckers seemed to be taken aback by her vicious demeanor. He collected himself and formed that same smile again. "Would you mind telling me who your inside connection in Carter Corporation is?"
"No." Isabel shot him down, "But what I can tell you is that the nature of my relationship with Carter Corporation is perfectly legitimate. We are equals unlike what's going on between you and Isabella."
A mere actor would prop herself on equal footing with Carter Corporation, one of the most prestigious corporations in Westchester? Who would believe that?
Decker scoffed and changed his approach this time. "Sure, so who is your boyfriend in Carter Corporation?"
Isabel made a face before expressing disappointedly,"
Decker, how old are you? Is this the only thing you have on your mind. Is that the only kind of relationship you can ever comprehend?"
Decker smiled slyly. "So, you're saying that this person in Carter Corporation helping you is just a friend?"
"Yes, we are just friends. Plain and simple," Isabel said bluntly.
"I see. How did you become plain and simple friends with this person?" Decker asked while inching closer toward her.
Isabel cocked an eyebrow. "I'm not telling you."
Decker peered at her quietly.
Isabel was done fussing about this with her, and she turned to leave.
