Before Sebastian could say anything else, she ended the call, clenching her fist tightly.

Isabel was having the strong urge to haul her phone against the wall, but she restrained herself, knowing the damage it will cause the phone, which was purchased barely three days ago.

She burst out of her closet, slamming the door behind her. She strode across her bedroom, her feet pounding the floor in frustration. She felt like she was going to explode, her emotions boiling over like a pot left unattended on the stove.

She flung open her bedroom door and stormed out into the hallway, not sure where she was going, but knowing she needed to get out of there.

That was how mad she was at him.

She paced down the hall, her hands clenched into fists, her mind racing with thoughts and feelings she couldn't process.

    Despite Austin's subtle objection, Isabel accepted the package sent from the delivery guy, and she carried it into the house, but did not open it.She dropped it on the dining table and left without sparing it a second glance."I don't understand why you won't let me deal with the bastard."
