Isabella ended the call and settled into the car, enjoying the comfortable temperature.
However, a sudden chill ran through her body causing her to instinctively cover her chest. A wave of nausea washed over her, leaving her feeling repulsed.
In an attempt to alleviate the nauseous feeling, she quickly rolled down the window and took deep breaths. Unfortunately, the sensation persisted.
Isabella had believed Seth was different from Dariel, thinking that despite his flaws, he wouldnât disregard the well-being of a child.
To her surprise, Seth was willing to use money to resolve a life.
Tension filled the carâs atmosphere. Suddenly, the bodyguard in the front seat received a call. While engrossed in the conversation, he glanced back at Isabella with an unnatural expression.

Chapter 234 Overwhelmed By Disgust âMiss, where are we going?â the driver couldnât help but ask.
Isabella snapped back to reality and provided Nemotorsâ address.
Upon hearing the mention of Nemotors, the driver expressed surprise and couldnât help but glance at Isabellaâs face.
Deliberately lowering her head, Isabella avoided further conversation.
Upon arrival, she quickly paid the fare and walked toward the office building with a grim expression.
She entered her office. Just as she stepped out of the elevator, a flurry of chatter reached her ears.
A group had surrounded Phoebe, bombarding her with questions as if they wished they could devour her.
Chapter 234 Overwhelmed By Disgust Upon seeing Isabella, the Zimmers redirected their attention, forming a circle around her.
âMiss Symons, what did you mean by what you said in front of the media yesterday?â
âAre you trying to drive Nemotors into bankruptcy?â
âSay something!â
A group of aggressive individuals stood before her, mouths wide open as if they wanted to tear Isabella apart.
Isabella calmly scanned the crowd. Suddenly, her anger exploded.
âYandell is already in jail, and Michael and Ferdie are under investigation. Do you want Chapter 234 Overwhelmed By Disgust to experience what theyâre going through?â
Her tone was composed, but her words were resolute. Her piercing gaze swept over everyoneâs faces as she coldly declared, âGo ahead and make a scene. Iâm in a good mood today. If anyone has a problem, speak up. Iâll deal with each and every one of you.â
With that, she turned her attention to Yuri, who stood at the front.
âMiss Zimmers, why donât you go first?â
Yuri was caught off guard. She blinked rapidly and quickly changed her tune. âNo, Iâ¦â
âIf you have no objections, then leave! Dealing with Ferdieâs family was nothing. Dealing with you wonât require any effort. If anyone else wants to step into the line of fire, do so quickly!â
Chapter 234 Overwhelmed By Disgust She finished her statement in one breath, dropping her harsh words. Then, she pushed aside the two closest people and walked toward her office in her high heels.
Everyone was stunned, including Phoebe, who hurriedly followed her.
âMiss Symons?â
Once the door was closed, Isabella took off her coat n out the chair behind her desk, and spoke coldly, âBring me the project plans submitted by each department, as well as the companyâs asset inventory report. Tell everyone to work overtime tonight.
Nothing that should be handed in can be missing. If anyone canât handle it, they can leave!â
Phoebe swallowed nervously, not daring to linger. âYes!â
âLeave.â
Chapter 234 Overwhelmed By Disgust Phoebe wiped her sweat and hurriedly left the office without hesitation.
The office fell into silence. Isabella tightly gripped her pen, but her hand trembled slightly, weakening the words she forced herself to write.
She was truly enraged. Her sense of justice, bottom line, and morality had all been shattered, leaving nothing untouched.
Most importantly, every time she tried to empathize, she couldnât shake off thoughts of her five years with Seth. Throughout that time, she had always taken contraceptive measures, thankfully avoiding pregnancy.
What if I had gotten pregnant back then?
The idea flashed through her mind, sending shivers down her spine and reigniting that nauseating feeling.
Chapter 234 Overwhelmed By Disgust She ran her fingers through her hair, trying to dispel these intrusive thoughts and focus on the documents instead.
Time passed. The sun began its gradual descent.
Since the leadership change at Nemotors, the first anxious night of overtime had arrived, causing everyone to tremble, afraid of becoming a target of Isabellaâs anger.
By eight oâclock, every light in the building remained on.
Phoebe cautiously opened the door. âMiss Symons, itâs ten past eight. Should everyone continue?â
Surprised by the time, Isabella furrowed her brow as she glanced at her phone.
âTell everyone to go home now.â
Chapter 234 Overwhelmed By Disgust She buried her head back into her work, concentrating on the documents.
Phoebe was surprised. âArenât you leaving?â
Isabella responded with a hum, âIâll spend the night here.â
Internally, Phoebe sighed, admiring her determination.
âIâll get a blanket for you,â she offered.
Without lifting her head, Isabella acknowledged her offer. Once Phoebe left, she immediately put down her pen.
It wasnât that she loved her job; she simply didnât want to return to Harmony Residence.
Whether Seth was there or not, the place held his traces-an unbearable reminder.
