Chapter 26
Selena’s appearance irritated Isabella a bit
because she had a vague feeling that the young
woman wasn’t as simple as she seemed. After
finally sending her away, Isabella returned to her
office and was immediately surrounded by a group

to ask, “Why would you say that?”
Alex gave Isabella her phone and shot her a look.
“Have a look yourself.”
Glancing at the phone, Isabella saw it was a web
page of detailed information on Wikipedia. The old
man in the picture was the one who came to buy a
car the day before yesterday.
Alex sighed, not able to hide her admiration when
