Chapter 107

Isabella picked a few vegetables and bought some pork ribs. After she spoke

with Natasha over the phone, she left the supermarket and headed for

Shaffer Group. Since she had been showing up on time for the past few days,

the reception was already looking at her differently. It seemed that they had

come to regard her as the future mistress of the Shaffer Group.

package and started serving them in the kitchen. Finally, she also placed the

two takeaway dishes in the microwave.

brightening as she hummed a song while she washed the greens and

tomatoes.
