Chapter 111
After leaving the Shaffer Group, Isabella returned to her company and took
advantage of the opportunity to check Abigail’s computer. When she
confirmed that there were no issues, she waited for the end of the workday.
Then, Isabella arranged to meet Lara at 6.00PM in Room 801 of the Prince
