Kinsey's heartbeat slowly calmed down. She sat down in the chair and looked at the man opposite her a few times. She asked, "Since Isai is going to be released, why should I help you with these? If he wasn't released, I might help you. But if he comes out, I can't do these things under his nose."

She knew very well what kind of person Isai was. He was cruel and merciless. In his eyes, human life was worthless. If he found out that she was going to go against him, she would definitely be killed. "I'll just pretend that this conversation did not happen." Kinsey was about to leave, and she even warned him. "You must know that your father is a powerful man. You can't defeat him." Stanley smiled faintly and said, "Miss Lambert, I thought you were smart, but hadn't it crossed your mind that, since I have the ability to get him locked up, and the ability to get him released; do you still think that I can't defeat him?"

Kinsey was stunned.

"I want him dead. It's simple. I could have gotten some international assassins to kill him, but I didn't. Why? Because I want him to feel how his power slowly fades away from him."

The most important thing for Isai was his power, and Stanley wanted to take this away from him little by little so that Isai could feel what it would feel like to lose something precious.

"And you, if you don't help me, how well do you think your ending will be? As long as you don't agree, once you get out of this door, someone will immediately take you away and lock you up. Of course, I can let you go, but when Isai comes out, I'll deliberately let him know that we have met. Do you think that someone as suspicious as him will continue keeping you by his side? Women that he rejects will only face death. Don't you understand this better than me?"

Kinsey looked at this man incredulously, her whole body trembling. He was a devil, much more terrible than Isai.

She had been by Isai's side for so many years. Even though she may not know everything there is to know about him, she certainly still knew some secrets. If Isai became suspicious of her, he wouldn't trust her as much as he had in the past. She wouldn't be able to marry and settle down as any other woman does.

The only ending she would end up with was death.

Isai would never allow his mistress to leave his side.

Two days later, Isai was released. He directly got into the car with a gloomy face and ordered the driver, "Drive!"

The driver left immediately.

One day later, Oscar was also released. Isai patted him on the shoulder and said, "You've been loyal to me for so many years. You've been wronged. Since I've managed to come out this time, I won't be going back in. Go home and wash up first. We'll talk about other stuff by then."

"Yes, sir."

In the villa halfway up the mountain, Oscar reported all recent events that had happened to Isai. "Madam was taken away by Mr. Stanley but we don't know where she was sent to for the time being. Also, Mayor Liu and the others have been waiting for a long time. Do you want to see them first, or have dinner first?"

"Let them in."

"Alright."

Kinsey waited until around ten o'clock in the evening before Oscar called her over. In the study, she saw that Isai seemed to have just taken a shower and was sitting in an old-fashioned wooden armchair in his bathrobe. He was looking through some documents in his hand. Seeing her come in, he closed the documents and threw them into the drawer.

Isai signaled for her to come over, and Kinsey immediately obliged.

"Your massage techniques have always been good. I'm used to your massages. Give me one now," said Isai.

"Okay," Kinsey responded. She stood behind him, her motions gentle. After thinking for a while, she asked with concern, "How have you been during this period? Have you been upset?"

Her voice softened, but suddenly someone held her wrist and yanked her body with force. Letting out a soft cry, she then fell onto his lap. As he lifted her chin, her heart started beating wildly.

Isai looked at her for a few seconds and then said, "I appreciate your concern, but don't meddle in my work affairs in the future. Do you understand?"

Kinsey nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, I do."

Isai smiled and patted her cheek. "Have you taken a bath?"

Kinsey blushed and said, "Yes."

Half an hour later.

Isai put on his clothes and sat on the old-fashioned wooden armchair,

panting. Glancing at Kinsey, he drank a mouthful of water before opening the drawer to get the document from earlier on. After reading it for a while, he got up and walked to the bookcase but suddenly stopped as if a thought crossed his mind. Then, he said to the woman on the sofa, "Leave the room!"

Kinsey laid there, not moving an inch.

Isai frowned and walked over. He looked at her; her eyes were closed as if she was lifeless. He reached over to feel under her nose - there was still a faint breath.

Isai called her name twice. Seeing that the woman did not answer, he decided to let her be.

She was already fast asleep, so he didn't have to worry about what she would see.

He pressed a button in front of the bookcase. Suddenly, the bookcase was separated from the middle, revealing a door. Isai punched in the password and then disappeared behind the door.

Upon seeing this, Kinsey, who was lying on the sofa, was so scared that she immediately closed her eyes, pretending that she had seen nothing.

Meanwhile, the words that Stanley had told her two days ago suddenly rang in her mind. He said that he was looking for evidence and that it must have been hidden in a very secretive place by Isai... Could this be the secret location that Stanley had mentioned?

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes today, she would never have thought that an ordinary bookcase actually had a door behind it.

What was behind that door? She couldn't imagine.

She was too engrossed with her thoughts, so much that she did not realize Isai walking out from behind the bookcase. When he saw her sitting there wide awake, he flew into a rage. He turned around to close the secret door and then stomped over to give her one tight slap on her face.

"Ah..."

Kinsey came to her senses because his slap was very painful and caused her to fall from the sofa. Before she could get up, Isai kicked her with anger again.
