Isabella casually clicked on the article. In the
image, Seth held a champagne glass while
accompanied by the leading actress of Ingemium
Media, Briana Farrell. They looked like a match
made in heaven.
After a sneer, she breathed out to dispel the

contacts, ready to fight.
Since it was 9.00AM, the secretaries should have
clocked in, so Isabella called Fiona. The call was
soon answered. “Fiona?”
“It’s me.” Fiona sounded hesitant. “Isabella.”

Fiona let out a long sigh, and her emotions
immediately surged inside her. “Isabella, you know
me so well. It’s total chaos without you here.”

with her fingers, suggesting with assurance, “How
about this? Come by my company if you’re free this
afternoon, and we’ll have lunch together.”
Shaffer Group’s headquarters was in the city
center, while the small company Isabella was at
was almost on the outskirts of the city, so it was
quite far away. Fiona hesitated for a moment. “This
afternoon? It’s so far, so I’m afraid I won’t make it
back in time.”
With a click of her tongue, Isabella said, “That’s
unfortunate. I have some notes that compose Mr.
Shaffer’s daily habits and several points of
attention. I’m afraid it won’t be clear if I explain
them over the phone.”

Chapter Hearing About His Romantic Affairs
Isabella was making a gamble. She was betting
that everyone in the office would be competing for
the position of executive secretary, including Fiona.
Anyone would be attracted to the notes she, the
former executive secretary, had compiled.
“Sure. I’ll be there.” As Isabella expected, Fiona had
only hesitated for a while before immediately
agreeing.
With a confident smile, Isabella hung up.
Inside the empty and quiet pantry, she felt ironic
while looking out of the glass walls. Even though she kept saying she wanted to be rid of Seth, she was still trying all she could to assert authority by
using his reputation.

Just as she was lost in her thoughts, the door to the
pantry opened. When she turned around, she saw
it was Alex Young, who had a cold and indifferent
expression. Just like her ambiguously androgynous
name, she gave off an unapproachable vibe.
Isabella simply nodded at her, but the other only
responded with a slight glance. But just as Isabella
was about to leave, Alex spoke up. “You can forget
about yesterday’s sale. That b*tch Abigail has
crawled into Jonas‘ bed long ago.”
Those words rendered Isabella slightly shocked as
she didn’t expect the woman to be so frank and
indiscreet with her words. “I understand. Thank you
for your reminder.”

After scoffing, Alex leaned against the water
dispenser and replied, “I’m not helping you. I’m just
curious about you. You don’t look like someone who
has been a secretary for five years.”
Withdrawing her hand, Isabella turned back to look
at Alex. “What should a secretary look like?”
Alex raised a brow before looking outside the glass
window. “Like Abigail. Spreading her legs to win over
others.”
Isabella choked as those words had hit the nail on
the head. She and Abigail weren’t much different.
Their only difference was that Seth was way better
than Jonas, and Seth was a generous man, which
was why she didn’t act spoiled. It was because Seth
would give her everything she deserved without

Just as the atmosphere was at its most tense, there
was suddenly a commotion outside, so Isabella
and Alex looked outside.
“You b*tch! How dare you try to make a move on
my man? Are you looking to die?”
“Ahh-”
When Isabella and Alex exited the pantry, they saw
a brightly dressed woman hitting Abigail with a
Hermes handbag.
The bystanders around them tried to mediate, but
it was clear that this woman came from an
extraordinary background. In that sense, no one

dared to offend someone powerful for Abigail.

Meanwhile, Isabella took a look and immediately
recognized the woman. Summer Woods, daughter
of Woods Realty and Lara’s friend.
She instinctively wanted to mediate the situation
but withdrew her leg immediately after taking one
step forward. Since Summer knew her and had
always looked down upon secretaries, she couldn’t
be sure if the former would humiliate her as well.
Moreover, Abigail clearly deserved this. Who else
would suffer other than her after she attempted to
seduce Summer’s man?
Moving away from the crowd, Isabella returned to
her desk.

The situation outside remained chaotic, and Jonas
had to deploy his acting skills before Summer
calmed down a little.
According to their conversation, Isabella
discovered that Abigail had asked Summer’s
husband to buy two more cars than he intended to
and then received several slaps from Summer.
“You want to marry someone wealthy, eh? Why
don’t you look in the mirror and see if you’re worthy
of that?”
“Even if he decides to divorce me to marry you, do
you think you’ll survive until that day?”
“F*cking wake up from your dream.”

Back in the office, Isabella felt a headache coming
from listening to the arguments. While others didn’t
think much of what was being said, she had
somewhat done the same thing as Abigail, so she
felt quite uneasy. Shaking her head, she tried to
dispel those negative emotions and think of a way
to sell cars.
Time went past quickly. The little incident during the
morning had just cooled down, and lunchtime
arrived.
Isabella went into the bathroom to touch up her
makeup and received Fiona’s call right after
coming out.
