Chapter 8
The silent night sky glowed with a luminous crescent.
The captivating atmosphere still lingered in the bedroom, and Isabella, barefoot, walked on the soft carpet to open the window.
Alexander had just gone into the bathroom to take a shower. Isabella looked at the closed door for two seconds. Then she took out a bottle of medicine from her handbag, poured out two white pills, and took them.
“Are you sick? What medicine are you taking?” Alexander’s h oar se voice came from behind. Isabella calmly turned around and said, “Vitamins. Why did you come out?”
“I didn’t take my underwear. Alexander glanced at the bottle in Isabella’s hand. It was a plain white medicine bottle with a Vitamin C label.
Without thinking too much, Alexander took his underwear and turned into the bathroom.
Half a month later, Zayn’s father, Kevin Jackson, was promoted to be the director of the perfumers
of HEALER as Doris said. Kevin was very enthusiastic as soon as he took office. He couldn’t wait to hold an emergency meeting and give instructions on the Valentine’s Day perfume they were preparing.
Doris lowered her head and rolled her eyes.
Kevin’s understanding of the concept of perfume was old-fashioned. His sales and. marketing methods were indeed better than those of other perfumers, but he was not good at how to make perfumes.
However, Kevin thought his ideas and creativity were awesome. He focused on his talk. and was very proud of himself.
Finally, he said, “I think we should give our staff more opportunities. How about Zayn as the chief planner of this Valentine’s Day perfume? After all, Zayn is the most experienced person here. Do you have any objection?”
Zayn raised his head high and gave Isabella a provocative look.
Others looked at each other in shock, and no one spoke. Even if they had any
objections, how could they dare to say anything?
However, Isabella put down her cup slowly and said, “I do. The chief perfumer is me, so I’m the chief planner.”
Kevin seemed to have never expected Isabella to be so brave to disagree with him.

“You… I’m the director!” said Kevin.
Isabella sat upright and said confidently, “Mr. Myers told me personally that I would be responsible for the research and development of perfume in the future. How about you ask Mr. Myers again?”
Kevin and Zayn’s faces darkened, but they couldn’t refute.
After the meetings
Fletcher!”
perfumers gave Isabella thumbs-ups. “You’re amazing! Ms.
Isabella covered her lower abdomen with her hands. Yesterday, she had her period. Her face turned pale when she was in pain. She took painkillers to alleviate her pain.
Seeing this, Doris poured Isabella a cup of warm water and said, “This can’t do. Go to the doctor for treatment, Ms. Fletcher.”
Isabella agreed in a low voice.
Then Doris lowered her voice and asked, “Ms. Fletcher, aren’t you afraid that he will make trouble for you?”
Isabella was not worried. “What can he do to me?” she said casually.
Originally, Isabella didn’t take Doris’ words seriously. However, Kevin really made things difficult for her that night.
Kevin’s promotion in accordance with the company’s practice required à departmental dinner, and all the members had dinner together. Kevin even brought along a senior executive from the company.
There were a large number of people, so they didn’t have dinner in a private room, but in the lobby. At the beginning of the dinner, Kevin suggested that everyone have a toast together, so they all raised their glasses.
Suddenly, Zayn said, “Well, why are you drinking water, Ms. Fletcher? Is that a sign of sincere welcome? Although I know you like to go your own way, Mr. Williams has also joined us tonight. Why not have a drink?”
Hearing this, Doris explained, “Ms. Fletcher is not feeling well today. She can’t drink cold.”
At this point, anyone who had received normal physiological education should understand what it meant.
But Kevin laughed and said, “Don’t be so affected. It’s just a drink. It won’t kill you.”
However, Isabella raised her eyes and asked, “Can’t you understand what Doris’ has

said?”

Zayn poured Isabella a large glass of wine and stuffed it to her. “Just one glass. Don’t embarrass Mr. Jackson…”
Before Zayn could finish speaking, someone grabbed his collar and punched his face. with a heavy fist.
Zayn was nearly 6 feet tall, but Alexander was taller than 6.2 feet, so Zayn couldn’t resist. Alexander’s strength.
Alexander punched Zayn twice with great strength, and the sound of beating made
people’s scalps tingle. Alexander didn’t show mercy. After his punch, Zayn’s nose bone had probably been broken.
Everyone around them looked frightened, and someone was already screaming.
At this time, Isabella pulled the corner of Alexander’s coat and said, “That’s enough, Alexander.”
Then Alexander stopped and threw Zayn aside with disgust. Then Alexander said with anger, “Who the hell are you? How dare you force her to drink wine?”
Last night, Isabella had a menstrual cramp. Alexander fed her medicine and warmed her belly with a hot water bag. Finally, she fell asleep. How dare Zayn let her drink cold. today?
Kevin looked panicked and shouted, “How dare you hit him?”
Alexander picked up the wine and splashed it on Kevin’s face, cursing, “And you old bas ta rd.”
The cold beer dripped down from Kevin’s face. Kevin was in a mess and stared at Alexander, saying furiously, “You… I’m calling the police! You’ll go to jail!
The men who were following Alexander were laughing wildly after they heard this. Eugene said with laughter, “Wow, Mr. Alexander Knight, he wants to sue you.”
Alexander brushed his cuffs and said in a gloomy tone, “Fine. Call the police. I’ll see what they can do to me.”
Harris Williams, the senior executive, realized who Alexander was now and stood up, saying, “Mr. Knight? It’s you! This is all a misunderstanding. No one will call the police.”
“Do you know me? That’s easy.” Alexander glanced at Zayn and Kevin. Then he continued, “Fire them.”
“Yes, that’s for sure,” Harris said humbly. “I’ll fire them immediately,” Harris added.

Kevin and Zayn looked at each other in disbelief.
The rest of the people were also stunned.
Kevin was fired on his first day in office!
Alexander nodded with satisfaction and took Isabella’s hand, saying, “I’ll take her
now.”
away
Other people nodded immediately. They were afraid that the cruel man would fire them all.
As Alexander took Isabella out, Eugene shouted behind him, “Won’t you have dinner with us? Aren’t we good friends?”
Alexander sneered and replied, “Come on. I have nothing to do with you.”
Alexander put his arm around Isabella’s waist and asked, “Why do you have to work with such people? How dare they bully you? You might as well quit your job.”
Isabella said, “The others are nice to me.”
After this incident, everyone in the company must know that Isabella had a powerful backer. Even Harris would be respectful to her when he saw her later.
