Chapter 92
1/9
Isabella had obtained the document but was pondering over how to deal
with Jonas. Just then, she looked up and happened to see his insincere smile
through the window. As she was twirling a ballpoint pen between her fingers,
a great idea suddenly came to her mind.
“Who is in for trouble with that creepy smile of yours?” Alex teased her as she
passed by.
Isabella withdrew her gaze and smirked. “Come on, that was a kindly smile.”
“You haven’t closed any deals this month, have you?” Alex took a sip of water
while looking at her. “Don’t you feel pressured about it?” she asked, to which
Isabella shrugged. “I closed a deal for myself, didn’t I?”

Alex rolled her eyes. “Try closing a deal for yourself every month if you dare.”

I’ll be out of here in less than three months, and then these crappy sales
won’t bother me anymore, Isabella thought to herself. With two big plans in
mind, she had no mood for work, so she kept checking the time on her phone.
She waited for what seemed like an eternity until the end of the workday, at
which she grabbed her bag and prepared to leave. However, she wasn’t
intending to go home. “Is the alley behind our office crowded?” she asked
Alex.
Alex patted her face. “Yeah, it’s bustling with lots of bars and such,” she
replied before stopping herself mid-sentence. She reminded Isabella, “But
there are always street racers showing off their driving skills there. Just a
couple of days ago, two girls got bruised all over from being knocked over in
the alley.”

Isabella’s gaze flickered, and she replied with a faint smile, “I’m just going
there for a meal.”
Not noticing anything unusual about her, Alex then left with her bag.

Isabella made a special effort to fix her makeup in the break room. Then, with
her bag in hand, she gracefully sashayed into the bar-filled alley at the back.
She first went to a pub, where she grabbed something to eat and waited until
_nightfall. After that, she entered the alley alone.
The alley wasn’t deserted; people were coming and going, making it nearly
impossible to abduct someone. However, it would be very easy to knock
someone over in this alley.
Isabella strolled leisurely, her footsteps relaxed and unhurried. She seemed
quite out of place with the hustle and bustle of the alley, but thanks to her

striking good looks, some men came up and tried to hit on her. She turned
down several of them, but one kept following her, seemingly intending to
attach himself to her.

Just when she was finding the man bothersome, the roar of engines echoed
at the alley’s entrance.
“Get out of the way! It’s the street racers!”
Seeing the headlights approaching from a distance, the man who had been
trying to hit on her quickly dodged to the side in fear.
Isabella’s heart raced. Having anticipated this moment, she stood there
unmoving as if petrified. She didn’t scream until the motorcycle was almost
in front of her. However, it was already too late for her to dodge. The
motorcyclist didn’t let up on the gas either; he was actually aiming straight at
