Isabella sidestepped just in time.
With her extensive combat experience, she quickly delivered a
sidekick, sending the attacker sprawling to the ground.
Her movements were swift and ruthless.
Seeing this, the other man hastily put Sophia down and gave Isabella
a punch.
Isabella dodged, grabbed his arm, and executed a perfect throw.
The man screamed in pain and, as he struggled to get up, Isabella
pushed him back, her strength matching his, and slammed him into a
metal trash can with a loud clang.
The two men fled when they realized that they were no match for
Isabella.
Isabella pulled out her phone and called the police. Then she knelt beside Sophia and gently tapped her face. “Sophia, Sophia?”
Maybe it was the sound of her name, but Sophia slowly opened her

eyes and looked up at Isabella.
“How are you feeling? Are you hurt anywhere?” Isabella asked
urgently.
“Drugs…” Sophia’s face was pale, her eyes glazed over, and her
forehead was covered in cold sweat.
She struggled to speak, “They… injected me with something.”
Isabella had no idea what kind of drug had been used. If it was a
virus, that could be very dangerous.
“I’ll take you to the hospital!”
Evergreen Hospital.
Isabella tried to calm her nerves and stole a glance at William, who
was sitting across from her.
William was dressed in a sleek black suit, his shirt buttoned
meticulously up to his neck. His cold, handsome face exuded an air of
authority and indifference.

Sensing her gaze, William looked up at her.
William’s eyes were as dark and dangerous as a bottomless pit.
In an instant, Isabella felt like prey being watched by a predator,
making her very uncomfortable.
She couldn’t seem to meet his gaze, right then. “Um… Mr. Brown,
since Sophia is okay now, do you mind if I leave?”
William was terrifying.
Even though she had met him a few times in her past life, she still
found it hard to get used to him.
William stared at her silently, not saying a word.
Isabella stared back at him blankly.
David Jones, standing nearby, spoke up. “Ms. Taylor, please wait a
little longer. If the investigation shows you had nothing to do with
the kidnapping, we’ll let you go.”
This incident involving Sophia was a case of premeditated
kidnapping.

Chapter 9
Thanks to Isabella calling the police, the two suspects had already
been arrested.
It appeared that Robert Davis, the owner of Prime Real Estate, had
orchestrated the kidnapping. Prime Real Estate had gone bankrupt
after losing a bet against the Brown Group, and Robert had taken his
anger out on William’s sister, Sophia, hoping to regain what he had
lost from William.
A bodyguard in black soon walked through the hospital room door
and handed William a tablet.
It held the surveillance footage from the scene.
The footage clearly showed everything that had happened.
William raised an eyebrow slightly when he saw Isabella kick the tall
man away. “Ms. Taylor’s skills…”

He paused, then added, “Impressive.”
“Well…” Isabella rubbed her nose. “It’s nothing, really. I just practiced
some kickboxing for a while.”
