Isabella set off in a good mood, but her spirits were dampened by that announcement. Furthermore, after the car crash she had been involved in, she didnât dare to venture out on the roads. As a result, she turned off the engine and went back upstairs to lie on her bed like a sloth until nightfall.
Natasha called and invited her out for dinner. Isabella had a lot to share with her, so she went out and took the train to the restaurant. Natasha was wearing a silver bodycon dress, and her hair was permed in a 90âs style. She stood on the second floor of the retro tea shop, resembling a beautiful statue.
When Isabella arrived, someone was flirting with Natasha. She smiled brightly and took his name card, but as soon as the guy turned around, she tossed the card into the bin.
Isabella clicked her tongue. âAs charming as ever.â
Natasha shrugged and took the menu before ordering half of the options on 1.

âNothing.â Natasha rested her chin on her hands. âRenewed the contract with Dariel. I donât have to hold back when spending his money.â
Isabella was surprised. She couldnât understand why Natasha and Dariel stayed together despite everything that had happened. âI thought you said you would break up with him.â
Natasha licked her lips and narrowed her eyes. Quietly, she said, âWho knows what heâs thinking?â
She turned her head back and smiled at Isabella. âNever mind. If he wants to jump into hell, then I hope he wonât break when he finally lands.â
Isabella resigned herself, but she was still worried about Natasha. âNatasha, youâre two years older than me. Donât-â
Natasha shushed Isabella and smiled seductively. âDonât talk about disgusting worms like him. Letâs talk about yourself.â
09:52 Mon, 8 Jan G Chapter 200 So Unlucky Isabella stopped talking about Dariel. Just then, the waiter brought the food.
Isabella had some tea as she spoke. She told Natasha everything from the trip to Bleaktown to becoming the president of Nemotors. The only thing she didnât mention was Seth sharing a house with her.
Natashaâs eyes widened after listening. âThe Zimmers sent killers after you?â
Isabella breathed a sigh of relief. She still shuddered at the thought. âI was lucky to survive.â
Natashaâs face fell. She wasnât as optimistic as Isabella. âAnd youâre still getting involved in this mess. Youâll get yourself killed.â
Isabella knew that, but she really wanted this opportunity and couldnât let it 1.
Natasha clicked her tongue. âDo you want to be the president of Nemotors that badly?â
Isabella had some tea and lamented, âYou donât get a free lunch every day. I would take a bite even if it were poison.â
09:52 Mon, 8 Jan GRA Chapter 200 So Unlucky Natasha was speechless. She couldnât criticize Isabella, so she blamed Seth instead. âThat guyâs a jerk. He gives you all the dangerous work while he enjoys the fruits of your labor. The Zimmers are only under investigation, not arrested. Getting involved in this mess is like being a sitting duck. He knows that.â
Isabella smiled. âNo pain, no gain. I wouldnât have taken this opportunity if it came without risk.â
Natasha pursed her lips. âYou have a point.â
More food was served. The dishes were small, but they ordered a lot, so the table was filled to the brim. The ladies kept chatting about various topics, and afterwards, they felt better.
Natasha opened another bottle of wine and poured half a glass for both of them.
âDonât drink too much,â said Isabella as she swirled her glass. All she had was a small sip. She was not a good drinker. One small sip felt like a dozen bottles of beer to her.
ç¾ Chapter 200 So Unlucky Natasha could handle a lot of alcohol and didnât feel anything even after a few glasses. She ordered two more dishes for them. Isabella didnât drink much. It would be bad if she got drunk. She advised Natasha against drinking too much while also keeping an eye on herself. Halfway through, she felt her cheeks burning, so she had to go to the restroom.
âCome back soon.â Natasha narrowed her eyes, slightly tipsy.
Isabella asked the waiter to keep an eye on Natasha while she went to the bathroom. Her breath smelled like alcohol, but her mind was clear. She eventually came out of the cubicle and stood in front of the mirror, fixing her hair, but then, out of the corner of her eye, she saw two figures standing at the entrance of the restroom.
They were burly and leaning against the wall, smoking. These were not the kind of people who should be in a place like this. Alarm bells rang in Isabellaâs head. She texted Natasha before cautiously leaving. As she passed the men, Isabella slowed down, and one of them extended his leg to block her.
âDid you have a nice dinner, Miss Symons?â
09:52 Mon, 8 Jan G R Chapter 200 So Unlucky Isabella looked ahead. There were no waiters here on the path to the restroom. She hesitated for a moment before running in the opposite direction, shouting at the same time.
âDamn it!â The men exchanged a glance and quickly chased after Isabella.
Before Isabella could finish shouting, one of the men covered her mouth with his hand, and she was pulled by her hair.
âYou b*tch. Do you think you can run when we already have you?â The man held Isabellaâs hair and shook her head, causing her vision to blur. âDonât waste any time. Drag her in and teach her a lesson.â
