Before she went in search of Nina at the university, Isabella went into the living room and hid a knife in her bag.
She knew that there were only two outcomes depending on what Nina said. If Nina agreed to help her, the Zhang family could still be saved; if Nina refused, the Zhang family would go completely bankrupt.
If Nina helped her, she would show her gratitude by letting her go. If she refused however, Isabella was going to kill her.
This was all uncertain though. The only thing that was absolute was that she had to avenge herself. Nina had constantly disrespected and beat her in almost every aspect. She needed revenge.
She thought that the only course of action was to kill her. She refused to let her live her life knowing what Nina had done to her.
She surveyed the area and saw just a few people walking around, here and there. There was a row of trees between the sidewalk and the road, tall enough to hide her.
Isabella clenched the knife in her hand and walked towards Nina step by step. Every time someone walked by Isab
sense of satisfaction.
He turned his head again and got close to Isabella. He touched her head and raised her chin. "Nina can't help you, but I can. Why didn't you come to me?"
Facing Albert's sudden enthusiasm, Isabella was at a loss. Tears of excitement flashed in her eyes. She grabbed Albert's hand, as if holding a glimmer of hope.
Maybe she could finally save her family. Maybe Albert had a thing for her.
Albert didn't seem to share her fantasy. He looked down in disgust at her hands clutching his wrist. He waved them away dismissively.
Isabella withdrew her hands sulkily and didn't know what Albert was going to do.
"I have a way to save the Zhang family, but you have to listen to my every word, understand?" He pinched her cheek playfully, still hurting her though. He still had a smile on his face, ignoring what was happening.
Tears streamed down Isabella's face. Albert withdrew his hand in disgust.
How did he change so much from the Albert she knew?
He continued smiling but somehow looked more evil than ever.
