As Isabella asked the man to get into the boot, Isabella’s car boot at this instance opened up like a hungry abyss, ready to swallow secrets whole.Hence, even as the man pleaded, he got into the boot, and the boot closed on him. To this effect, a locked sound occurred, and Isabella rested her aim.Looking right and looking left, Isabella slipped into her car and peered into her wrist."12.30pm,” she muttered.Immediately, she pressed the button on her car dashboard, and the car itself roared to life."Welcome, Isabella; I see we have a guest." Alexa's voice sprouted out immediately.“Can you help me run a background check on him, Alexa?” Isabella asked. "Certainly, yes, Isabella. Allow me a minute, and I will be back.” Alexa answered. Right at this moment, a continuous chime sound continued to happen like the second hand of a catholic wall clock.Even so, before ten seconds, Alexa's voice sprouted again like a persistent weed breaking through the silence."Isabella, this man in you

As Isabella heard Alexa say this, she gently looked at her cellphone screen and saw that a video was indeed already set to play on it. In the video, she saw a man wearing a crisp navy suit that hugged his broad shoulders, with a light blue dress shirt underneath. His tie, a deep shade of burgundy, was neatly knotted. He looked sharp and composed. On the other hand, the lady was dressed in a flowing crimson evening gown that cascaded down to her ankles. The gown's delicate lace details shimmered in the soft, bright sunlight. Her hair, in the same way, cascaded in loose curls, framing her face elegantly. She also wore silver heels that added a touch of glamour to her ensemble. Being on an open plain, Isabella noticed a vast expanse of a clear cerulean sky. The sun bathed the landscape in a warm, golden glow, casting long shadows that stretched across the grassy terrain. "I love you, Billy," Isabella saw the lady yell. The lady's declaration of love burst forth from her with sudden an

After Alexa’s words, to which Isabella understood everything she said and was in total agreement, she stepped out of her hotel room, walked through the grand corridor of the hotel, passed by the reception, and finally through the parking lot, slipping into her car.When she entered her car, she looked into the mirror once again, and if she didn't like what she saw, it was a lie.“Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder, they say, but my own beauty lies in the eyes of everyone,” she muttered, then showed a gentle smirk on her face.Without any more time to waste, she pressed the button on the dashboard and had her car roar to life. Hence, she sped out of the parking lot and finally arrived at Ethan’s mansion.When she arrived at Ethan's mansion, as usual, she parked in the driveway at the gate. And because the security guards at the gate did not pave the way for her, she got out of her car and walked towards one of the security guards.Indeed, Isabella’s beauty was like angels' heavenl

Hearing this, Isabella was surprised. She couldn't explain how things had suddenly escalated from Ethan believing her words to whispering those words to her. At this point, it was evident that her beauty had failed her."My beauty failed me! Again!" she muttered to herself, watching as Ethan and Mr. Smith walked on toward their fancy car.In the same vein, she noticed another guard walking directly toward her. Without needing anyone to tell her the guard's intentions, she already knew and began to walk by herself. She moved away from the mansion's entrance door and toward the gate.As she walked on and the guard met her on the way, he said nothing. However, Isabella couldn't walk past him without hissing at the guard. Still, the guard remained silent and walked right behind her until she was outside of Ethan's compound and beyond the gate.At the gate's driveway, she slipped back into her car. Her face appeared rigid, like hard stones, showing obvious disappointment over the failed pl

"You should not be doing that, Isabella." Alexa's real voice suddenly sounded from Isabella's phone, which was inside her fancy bag.However, the fact that the phone was far away and her voice was not loud enough was a lie. Her voice was akin to a Bluetooth speaker turned up to the highest volume.Even so, Isabella thought at this moment that it was her imaginary voice occurring in her head. Therefore, she replied, "Why shouldn't I be doing this? I am practicing how to use this weapon in case that reporter comes; I will put a bullet in her motherf**king ass.""I checked all the CCTV cameras around, and indeed, all the ones in the whole of Eldridge. There are no traces of Elara. So you can put your mind at rest and stop doing that silly thing you call practicing."Hearing this again, Isabella still thought it was the voice in her head speaking, but not until Alexa suddenly and loudly cursed her, snapping her out of her hallucination with a louder voice than before. "Hey, you motherf**k
