Chapter 216
Everyone was shocked by how Isabella expertly used the needles
It was just like a scene from a diama, with those needles flying like falling leave seeing things
But seeing those three needles stuck in Brittany’s body confirmed it was real.
fast that the girls thought they were
With a serious expression, Isabella stepped forward and took the box cutter from Brittany’s hand, tossing it directly into a nearby trash can
The security guards arrived just in time to witness this scene, each of them wide–eyed.
They thought their company had started filming movi
Melanie froze in her seat, unable to shake off the chill creeping from within her.
If those three needles had landed on her heart, just the insults she’d thrown around would have been enough to get her killed.
When Isabella pulled the three needles from the top of Brittany’s head, Brittany’s body went limp and collapsed to the ground uncontrollably.
Brittany’s legs were shaking, and the intimidating demeanor she showed towards Isabella was completely gone.
Ivana hadn’t told her that this woman could be so frightening.
Isabella no longer looked at Brittany; instead, she turned around, her gaze coldly surveying everyone in the office.
Finally, she looked at the security guard and said in a chill voice, “Why haven’t you escorted the troublemaker our yet?”
The security guard finally snapped back to reality and quickly headed towards Brittany.
However, Brittany stood up and approached Ivana, pausing in front of her. “Ms. Stout, can I have a word with you?”
Without giving Ivana a chance to refuse, she turned and walked outside.
Her entire presence was so ominous, it seemed like her dark aura was about to swallow everything whole.
Despite an inexplicable fear creeping over her, Ivana had no choice but to follow. She told the security guard. “It’s fine, just escort her out later.”
This left everyone in the office looking at each other in confusion.
The security guards were even more puzzled, scratching their heads and unsure whether to escort her out or not.
Isabella achieved her aim and, not wanting to engage in further arguments, headed back to her desk.
By now, no one dared to provoke Isabella.
After all, the scene that had just unfolded was too shocking, leaving them still in disbelief.
They could only silently return to their own tasks.
Ivana followed Brittany all the way to the fire escape behind the design department.
When the fire escape door closed, Brittany stopped walking.
Chapter 216
Ivana recalled what hattells bad said earlier and the photos from ten years ago, feeling her fear intensify.
If her family had been involved in those activities hack then to the Patterson family would truly be terrifying
Standing at the floorway, she pushed down her fear and said to Brittany in the gentlest voire she could, “Brittany, I’m sorry.
Isabella is so heartless”
Even at that moment, Ivana was still trying to shift the blame.
However, Brittany kicked Ivana hard in the stomach, sending het flying into the fire door. There was a thud.
Ivana moaned in pain, clutching her stomach and trying hard to endure the pain.
But she couldn’t worry about that now: she quickly got up from the floor, tears streaming down her face as she begged. Tm sorry, it’s all my fault. I misjudged.”
She thought. Why has Brittany who used to be easy to communicate with changed so much?”
Ivana couldn’t understand. But then, it was too late to regret..
Brittany’s violence was a stark contrast to the gentle makeup on her face.
Brittany wiped the blood trickling from her neck and looked at the stains on her hand. She approached Ivana, her eyes seemed to be stained with blood as well.
She gripped Ivana’s chin tightly, forcing her to look up and meet her intense gaze. “Miscalculated? Let me tell you, Ivana, I’n holding you accountable for this.”
If it weren’t for Ivana’s constant advice and planning, they wouldn’t have ended up at the Stout Group today.
She even exposed the Patterson family’s secrets in front of everyone.
Even though Isabella didn’t provide hard evidence, just saying those things was enough to make her completely lose face.
She intended to blame all of it on Ivana.
Fear gripped Ivana even more deeply. Trembling, she pleaded, “Miss Patterson, please spare me. I really didn’t know thing: would escalate to this point. It’s all Isabella’s doing; she’s the one who wronged you. You should seek revenge on her.”
She thought, ‘Such a terrifying person should be dealing with that witch, Isabella.
Brittany’s grip on her jaw grew stronger, as if trying to crush her bones. She snarled, “Don’t worry, I’ll deal with both of you eventually!”
She thought, If my father dies, then everyone needs to be buried along with him! Nobody will escape unscathed!”
At that moment, Ivana was truly scared, not doubting for a second that Brittany might actually kill her.
Brittany shoved Ivana away, saying with disgust, “Get lost.”
She thought, ‘Worthless trash. Even looking at you for another second insults my eyes.
The fire door slammed shut with a loud sound.
Terrified, Ivana squeezed her eyes shut, her heart trembling along with her.
She thought, ‘It’s all because of that witch, Isabella!
“She has medical skills but isn’t saving people and is still causing all this trouble.

Chapter 216
Wouldn’t it be better to just treat patients and earn money?
In her anget, she turned and kicked the door, making the fire door clang loudly.
She thought. A jerk just can’t help but be dramatic, even at the expense of money!”
In the CEO’s office of the Howerton Group, the soft sunlight streamed through the floor–to–ceiling window and fell on the black leather sofa where Samuel sat, carefully reviewing a document.
His sharply defined eyebrows furrowed slightly, yet his expression remained focused.
At that moment, there was a knock on the office door,
Without moving his eyes from the document, Samuel simply said, “Come in.”
Perry pushed open the door and walked in quickly, closing it behind him.
He quickly approached Samuel, nodded respectfully, and said, “Sir, Miss Patterson, the daughter of the Patterson family. approached Mrs. Howerton to ask for help saving Floyd Patterson. After she refused, they kept bothering her, causing quite a stir at the Stout Group today.”
Samuel’s hand paused on the document as he looked up at Perry, his demeanor suddenly becoming sharp.
He thought, Does the Patterson family really think they’re a big deal? Daring to mess with my wife!
Perry, with some concern, said to Samuel, “Given the attitude of the Patterson family, they might be a threat to Mrs. Howerton.”
Samuel’s eyes turned sharp suddenly as he asked, “Is she hurt?”
Samuel took a deep breath, a flicker of worry visible in his eyes as he looked at Perry and inquired further.
Perry shook his head and reported honestly, “Mrs. Howerton is fine. Brittany was threatening to harm herself, trying to use public pressure to force her to help her father. Mrs. Howerton responded by revealing the Patterson family’s past misdeeds, keeping the situation under control.”
It even escalated quite a bit; Isabella took action herself.
It’s a pity he wasn’t there; otherwise, he could have seen the Isabella’s impressive moves.
Brittany was really despicable, using such low tactics.
Samuel looked at Perry with a cold gaze and instructed, “It seems the Patterson family has been too comfortable. Finti them. some trouble at the docks. If they dare to mess with Bella, we’ll wipe them out.”
A spark of excitement lit up in Perry’s eyes. He thought, If they dared to bully Isabella, they’d better watch out.”
After receiving the order, he quickly left, just as Samuel’s phone started ringing.
