Early morningâ¦
After what happened, Isabella passed out and woke up, not knowing how long she had been unconscious. Her eyes were so dry that she couldnât open them, and her throat was burning so much that she couldnât make a sound.
Moving her arms, she discovered her whole body was aching as though she had received a beating.
What happened last night? While massaging her temples, she looked at her surroundings. The black and white decor gave the room a cold and arrogant feeling, which suited Sethâs taste.
âDidnât you want to sleep with me?â
Chapter 86 Pay What You Owe âBe good, and Iâll grant you one more request.â
âIf I wanted to sell my body, I would choose a newâ¦â
The words she said last night popped up inside her head, startling her so much that she quickly sat up, inadvertently tugging on the bruises on her body. It was so painful that she gnashed her teeth.
There was a mirror on the table opposite her. Now that she was sitting up, she discovered that there was also a bruise on her forehead, and it looked quite horrifying.
Did I get into a fight with Seth last night because we couldnât make a deal?
Thinking it might be possible, Isabella instantly felt chills run down her spine.
Chapter 86 Pay What You Owe She quickly got out of bed, holding onto a chair to find her footing.
Her throat felt very uncomfortable, so she went to wash up in the bathroom and cleaned herself up before heading out the door.
Just as she opened the door, she met the eyes of a young helper.
Isabella was stunned for a moment. âExcuse me, can youâ*
âDo you feel unwell?â the helper interjected.
Isabella felt slightly confused. âNo, thank you.â
However, the helper blocked the doorway when Isabella was trying to leave.
âHas Mr. Shaffer gone to the company? Iâve troubled you all for one night, so l Chapter 86 Pay What You Owe have⦠to leave.â
The helper revealed a faint smile and bowed. âWhat would you like to eat?â
Isabella felt that the helper seemed strange, but she couldnât bring herself to ask. In the end, she declined the offer. âThank you, but itâs all right.â
Afterward, she tried to leave through a small gap beside the door, but the helper didnât hide her intentions and reached out her leg to stop Isabella.
Isabella fell silent and calmed down her breathing before gazing at the helper. âIs there a problem?â she asked.
âMr. Shaffer said to show you something if youâre feeling well.â
With that, the helper took out a printed list from her pocket.
Chapter 86 Pay What You Ove Nervous, Isabella accepted the list and read it from top to bottom. Porcelain cup, crystal lamp, aquamarine stoolâ¦
âWhat is this?â she asked tentatively.
The helper reached out her hand, gesturing for Isabella to head back inside.
Left with no choice, Isabella followed the helper and headed into the built-in bathroom.
The moment they entered, Isabella was flabbergasted because the bathroom was a wreck. It was still wet and had all sorts of things scattered across the floor.
âYou got drunk last night and puked. Mr. Seth brought you in here to clean up, but you started hitting him and smashing a lot of stuff.â
Chapter 86 Pay What You Owe Isabella thought about the bruises on her body and found it hard to believe. âI hit him?â
âThe bruises on your body are from your fall.â The helper was holding in her laughter as she pointed at Isabellaâs forehead. âThis was from when you knocked it against the marble countertop. Mr. Seth even called for a doctor to check on your injuries.â
Isabella felt like crying as she held the list, unable to say a word.
âMr. Seth says he wonât ask you for the doctorâs consultation fees, but you have to compensate for the things inside this bathroom.â The helper spread her hands as she spoke.
Looking at the list, Isabella was so angry that she closed her eyes. Over 105 thousand?
Chapter 86 Pay What You Owe âAre you going to transfer the money or pay by cash?â the helper urged.
Pursing her lips, Isabella muttered, âSorry, but I donât have that much-
âThatâs perfect. You can send Mr. Sothâs lunch to him at the company yourself!â The helper clapped her hands, soomingly excited. âMr. Shaffer instructed that if you donât have the money to pay up, you can run errands for him and earn 15 thousand each time.â
Regarding that particular Mr. Shaffer, Isabella had some recollection of him.
He was someone Spencer had assigned to Seth.
She massaged her temples upon hearing that. If she could make 15 thousand per errand, she would have to send lunch to Seth for a week.
âCan I ask why Mr. Shaffer didnât choose someone else for this errand?â
Chapter 86 Pay What You Owe At that, the helper replied, âNo one has the courage to take the job. Mr. Seth didnât sleep well last night because of you and had to go to the company for a meeting early this morning, so he must be in a very bad mood.â
Isabella fell silent upon hearing that. Great. Theyâre letting me be the sacrifice.
âItâs getting late, so get changed and follow me downstairs to get ready,â the helper urged.
A speechless Isabella knew she was in the wrong, so she could only follow the helper downstairs.
âI prepared two portions so that you can eat with Mr. Seth.â The cook had a gentle temperament and gave Isabella two lunch boxes.
Surprised, Isabella quickly took the lunch boxes, feeling resigned. She wouldnât Chapter so Pay what you we dare have lunch with Seth and might even get mocked later.
After taking a deep breath, she glanced at her phone. When she didnât see any calls from her company, she immediately felt nervous.
