Chapter 209
Late at night, Isabella stood on a chair in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, delivering
her inauguration speech with great passion. The only audience, Seth, remained
expressionless and on the verge of a mental breakdown. Although he didn’t have the
heart to accompany Isabella in her antics, every time he showed signs of leaving, she
would immediately grab him-either hugging his leg or locking his throat-and if all else
failed, she would bite him.
Two hours passed, and she was still not finished. She began with the current state of
the company and presented a hundred-year plan, speaking seriously and showing no
signs of drunkenness. Seth didn’t know that this woman had a dream of making
Nemotors the number-one company in the world.
In the middle of her speech, he coldly interrupted, “If Nemotors is so successful, what
about the Shaffer Group?”
Her speech was abruptly interrupted, and she put her hands on the back of the chair,
not caring that she was standing on it, and put her weight on the back of the chair,
causing it to fall forward. Her eyes widened, her brain froze, and she even forgot to

Sitting in front of her, Seth rushed over and stabilized the chair just in time. “Get down!”
Unaware of the danger, Isabella waved her hand and smacked her lips. “Seth, that’s a

pulled the drunken woman off the chair and sat her down before she could struggle.
“You… Sit and talk!”
Isabella laughed, seeming very satisfied. “Seth, you’re very competent.”
Seth snorted.
“When I acquire the Shaffer Group, I’ll hire you as my chief of staff,” she promised.

Seth held his belt with both hands, about to laugh out loud. This woman not only
covets my position but also fantasizes about swapping roles with me. Have I been too
oppressive over the years? Does it explain why her thoughts are so rebellious?
Isabella’s face was still flushed, and her breath reeked of alcohol. She looked up at him
and found that he didn’t seem very happy. Patting his arm, she said, “Don’t worry. You
only need to focus on your work as my chief of staff.”
Seth glanced at her, trying to decipher the deeper meaning in her words. Then, she
added, “I won’t be unfaithful or cheat on you. Although you are handsome, you are safe
with me.” She gave him a wink. “Are you moved?”
Speechless, he finally understood what she meant; this woman was mocking him,
accusing him of cheating on her and complaining about him being unfaithful. However,
other than these two points, he had no argument. Taking a deep breath, he looked
