Seeing her hesitation, the doctor assumed she was
scared and said indifferently, “It’s just a simple
physical examination. Lie down and take off your

pants. I only need to take a sample.”
Isabella gripped the sides of her pants with both
hands, forcing herself to stay calm and mentally
prepare herself. Just think of it as a free check–up.
It’s no big deal.
Then, she lay down expressionlessly, already
guessing Seth’s intentions. The cotton swab lightly

still a rookie and didn’t understand the specifics of
the contract. Nonetheless, she was certain that this
clause hadn’t been in there.
Hold on! She had signed numerous contracts over the past few years under Seth’s instructions. There was no guarantee that he hadn’t deliberately slipped in a few extra clauses. As such, she might
