I Quit Mr. Shaffer ( Isabella Symons ) Chapter 14

Chapter 14

Isabella had been busy all afternoon, making

several calls, but received no responses. Although

she had thought of trying those previous

“connections,” she decided against it because

there was no point in humiliating herself before

them. With mounting pressure, she couldn’t afford

to dwell on messy affairs.

She had no business matters to attend and wasn’t

in the mood for overtime. After all, sales wasn’t just

about sitting in an office and doing paperwork. So,

she grabbed her bag and left. She had to stay at

Natasha’s place for the next few days. Before

heading back, she decided to call and ask if

Natasha wanted her to buy groceries.

Isabella dialed the number, and Natasha picked

1. up. “Hey, I’m going to buy some groceries. Is there

anything specific you’d like?” Instead of a response,

she heard a bustling commotion on the other end

of the line.

This struck her as odd since Natasha managed a

bar, and it wasn’t late enough for such a lively

atmosphere. Isabella repeated her question a

couple of times, but Natasha remained silent, and

suddenly, screams echoed in the background

“Natasha?” Isabella called repeatedly, but Natasha

abruptly hung up.

Natasha managed Goldland Lounge, one of

Imperia’s top bars with a powerful backer, so

trouble was rare. Still, Isabella’s concern grew,

prompting her to head to the bar.

As evening approached, the lights illuminated the

surroundings. Luxury cars were a common sight

near the bar since it was surrounded by other

entertainment venues frequented by wealthy

people.

After getting out of the car, Isabella hurriedly

entered the bar. Since she had been here a few

times before, the waitstaff at the entrance

recognized her. “It’s been a while since you last

visited, Miss Symons.”

Isabella followed the waiter inside. The lighting was

dim, but everything was neat and orderly.

Performers were on stage, singing softly, and there

were no signs of trouble.

“I’m here to see Natasha. Is she busy?” Isabella

inquired. Just then, she saw Natasha standing on

the second–floor crystal corridor, which relieved

her.

Natasha also noticed her from above. She spoke to

the man she was with before descending the spiral

staircase.

“Why are you here?” She asked, somewhat

surprised, as Isabella wasn’t typically fond of places

like this.

Waving her phone, Isabella explained, “I heard

some commotion when I called earlier and thought

something might have happened to you.”

Natasha clicked her tongue and patted Isabella’s

head. “I was too busy and didn’t even check who

was calling when I answered. Some troublemaker

knocked my phone away before I could respond.”

Isabella looked around and saw no signs of trouble.

It turned out that everything had already been

taken care of.

Natasha put her arm around Isabella’s shoulder

and led her upstairs. “Since you’re here, come to my

room. We’ll leave together when my shift ends.”

Though Isabella wasn’t too keen on it, she didn’t

want Natasha to think she looked down on places

like this, so she silently followed her.

Natasha took Isabella to the third floor but didn’t

take her to a room.

“Dariel brought some people over, so I need to

meet him downstairs. Go to my room by yourself.

It’s the one at the end with my nameplate.”

Not wanting to trouble her, Isabella agreed. “Alright,

you go ahead.”

Natasha swiftly descended the stairs, clearly not

wanting to offend someone named Dariel.

Meanwhile, Isabella walked to the end of the

corridor and approached Natasha’s room, which

had a large “M” engraved on the door. However, she

realized she had forgotten to ask for the room’s

password. With no other option, she decided to

wait, assuming Natasha wouldn’t be gone for long.

The luxurious carpet beneath her feet felt

expensive. She estimated that its cost could cover

the expense of a new bathroom. So, she took a few

steps and felt more at ease. Soon, she heard

hurried footsteps coming up the stairs, seemingly

from more than one person.

Isabella intentionally turned away, not wanting to

recognize anyone or be recognized.

To her surprise, the footsteps drew closer until they

were right behind her. Unable to contain her

curiosity, Isabella turned around, only to be met

with a glass of strong liquor thrown in her face.

“You wretch, trying to seduce my husband, are

you? Do you want to die?!”

If it weren’t for the liquor stinging her eyes, Isabella

would have asked the person responsible why she

was behaving like she had caught her husband’s

mistress.

Before Isabella could react, the woman slapped

her, causing her to lose her balance and fall

backward.

“What are you waiting for? Get to it!” The woman,

clearly unsatisfied with dousing Isabella with liquor

and slapping her, swung her purse at Isabella’s

head and even enlisted her friends to join in.

Shocked and bewildered, Isabella tried to reason

with them while shielding her head. “You’ve got the

wrong person! I’m just waiting for someone.”

However, her pleas fell on deaf ears as the women

attacked her like a pack of frenzied dogs, verbally

assaulting and physically targeting Isabella’s face.

One of them slapped Isabella, causing her ears to

ring.

Isabella curled up, protecting her head and

enduring the chaotic onslaught of insults and

blows. A mix of despair and fear swelled within her

as she bitterly thought, Bad luck sure comes in

threes. I came all this way only to get beaten up.

“What are you doing?” A male voice intervened, abruptly stopping the women’s onslaught. Their

rapid and intense pounding stopped abruptly.
