Chapter 22
“What’s going on here?” Inside the president’s office
at the Shaffer Group, Seth’s sharp gaze swept over
the man and woman outside, then turned to Ellie,
who was standing in front of him.
Ellie gulped nervously and wiped the sweat from
her forehead. Then, she spoke in a low voice.
“Isabella said you like new things and probably
want to explore after five to six years.”
“And?” The man’s voice had already turned
ice–cold. It seemed like just a slight breath from
him could turn into ice immediately.
“So, she found you Selena Winston and Nicolas
Dahn. If you’re not satisfied with Selena, you can

consider Nicolas. As Eille spoke, sne naa the urge
to bite her tongue and end her life, but she held
back her tears. “Based on Isabella’s understanding
of you, you’d enjoy Nicolas‘ company more.”
In the meantime, Seth didn’t get angry. Instead, he
let out a cold, amused laugh. “She’s quite
considerate, isn’t she?”

Was she afraid he would get tired of women, so she
found him a man to spice up his life?
Ellie forced a laugh. “Isabella has always been
meticulous when doing things.”
“Where is she?” Seth’s distorted smile instantly
disappeared.

Ellie stood tall and replied, “She has probably
returned to her desk.”

While watching Seth’s expression, she added, “But
someone met her in the elevator just now and
overheard her inviting Mr. Keller to dinner.”
Seth’s brows suddenly furrowed. “Did she take the
initiative?”
“Yes.”
He gave a dry chuckle, and the emotions in his
eyes became unclear as he spoke somewhat
sarcastically. “She’s really something, huh?”
After saying that, he withdrew his gaze, seeming
uninterested, and began to go through the
4/11
contracts on his desk.
“Go and help the new employees settle down.”
Ellie was surprised, for she didn’t expect Seth to
actually keep both of them. However, she didn’t
dare ask any questions and quickly left.
Isabella took a car to her destination, her back
drenched in sweat. As she entered the apartment
building, she was hit by the cold air conditioning
and immediately sneezed.
After all the commotion, she seemed to have
calmed down from her rage.
She pressed the elevator button and rode it all the

way up to her floor. When the elevator doors
opened, she saw a middle–aged woman with keys
standing in the corridor, talking on the phone. “How
am I supposed to remember how many months
she’s rented the house? I manage dozens of
properties.”
Upon hearing that, Isabella let out a silent, bitter
chuckle. She suddenly understood why she had
been kicked out of her own home; it was probably
because the landlord got the rental period wrong.
Therefore, she went up and patted the woman on
the shoulder, introducing herself, “Hello, are you the
owner of Apartment 3401?”
The woman glanced at her, a bit skeptical. “Are you
Miss Symons?”

Isabella breathed a sigh of relief. “Yes, that’s me.”
After clicking her tongue, the woman shrugged.
“How many years are you renting? My husband
says your three years is up.”
Isabella removed a few strands of hair from her
face and asked tentatively, “Don’t you have a
contract?”
“Our house is full of rental contracts. Where am I
supposed to find yours?” With her hands on her
hips, the woman rolled her eyes and said, “There
should be two copies of the contract. Where’s
