章 84: Chapter 83. Samantha's Guts

"Look, baby, I don't want to fight, okay?" Isabelle tried to persuade Rayleigh the next morning, as her fiancé had been making a fuss about the news about the new employee from Samantha.

"I know I'm being childish, but—" Rayleigh tried to rationalize.

"We'll never know about anything if I don't come to work today," Isabelle said in a calm manner. "We need to know who this new employee is and why he might be dangerous to me. And I believe Phi Sam and her gut instinct, but we need reasons or they can fire me. And don't say it's okay if I'm getting fired; this is my job, and it's what I love. You promised me to let me do the things I want."

"I know," Rayleigh pouted but didn't say anything else.

"I have two people following me everywhere, from your mom. They're always there whenever someone or something tries to hurt me," Isabelle explained again.
