Chapter 87 Miss Symons Assumes Authority
The butler arranged for a car to take Isabella to the company, along with two
bodyguards.
When she was a secretary, Isabella had never received such treatment, but
now it had upgraded after she was banished. It made her feel uneasy.
During the five years that she worked at the Shaffer Group, she had never felt
afraid to enter the door. However, the sudden addition of two bodyguards
and the fact that she had someone opening the door for her when she got
out of the car made her slightly hesitant.
“Miss Symons, please.” The bodyguards were diligent.
With her back straight, Isabella mustered her courage to enter the building.

Her high heels clanked against the floor, and her every step seemed to be

precisely measured. To the others, her face was filled with pride and without
any hint of nervousness.
“Hello, Miss Symons.”
The series of greetings felt familiar to her. While she nodded to them in
response, her grip on the lunch box gradually tightened.
She was worried about meeting Seth and wondered what she would do if he
publicly humiliated her.
“Miss Symons, let me carry it for you. It’s heavy.” The bodyguard suddenly
spoke up.
Smiling, Isabella naturally handed over the lunch box, and the elevator

Isabella pursed her lips and gave a simple nod before entering the elevator
with the two bodyguards.
Many watched the scene where both executive secretaries met. One was
shy and the other aloof, which made it clear who was better.
Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Selena wasn’t in a hurry to get out but
moved aside to make way for Isabella, smiling sweetly.
Once the elevator doors closed, although she was still smiling, the smile in

Meanwhile, Isabella stood straight and met the woman’s eyes in the
reflection on the elevator doors, speaking calmly, “Since it’s working hours,
shouldn’t you be with Mr. Shaffer? Why did you come downstairs? I
remember the office has designated secretaries for such things.”
Selena clenched her fists. “Mr. Shaffer went out on a business meeting.”

Isabella felt relieved and was happy to hear that Seth was out. However, she
maintained her calm demeanor and spoke in the tone of a senior. “You’ve
been working for almost half a month. Shouldn’t you be accompanying Mr.
Shaffer on his outings?”
Those words just happened to poke at Selena’s sore spot, and her eyes
narrowed. Nicolas had been the one accompanying Seth on his outings

At first, Seth would tell her to gain more knowledge, but recently, there were

As if she didn’t feel aggrieved enough, she didn’t expect Isabella to point it

barely maintain her smile as she turned to look at Isabella.
