Outside, Isabella leaned against the wall.
Her heart was still beating rapidly.
“That man has absolutely no sense,” she muttered.
She looked at the black card in her hand.
It looked extremely expensive.
She had no idea how much money was in his account.
But she understood one thing.
He wasn't an ordinary man.
His clothes were expensive. His gun was real. He spoke like someone who was used to controlling others.
Isabella walked towards the pharmacy.
She bought the medicine and fresh bandages that were available without a prescription.
The pharmacist warned her that a gunshot wound required immediate professional medical treatment.
Isabella already knew that.
But the injured man had refused to go to a hospital.
She couldn't force him.
After leaving the pharmacy, she went to a supermarket.
She bought eggs, bread, rice, vegetables, and a few other items.
She wanted to prepare a proper meal.
As she walked down the street, she noticed a shop selling animal-care products and supplies for pets.
She stopped in front of the shop window.
Then an idea came to her.
She entered the shop and looked around.
A few minutes later, she came out carrying a large bag.
A strange smile appeared on her face.
“I need to find out who you really are, Mr. Stranger.”
She checked the time and continued walking.
Before returning home, she bought a few more things.
She was afraid of Dante.
But her curiosity was stronger than she had expected.
She wanted to know his name.
She wanted to know why someone had tried to kill him.
She also wanted to know how a man like him had become so powerful.
And she had developed a strong physical attraction to his handsome body.
Perhaps discovering his identity would help her understand the strange world she had entered.
Perhaps it would even help her change her life.
For the first time, Isabella wanted to take control of her own future.
But she had no idea that she was walking towards a danger far greater than anything she had ever faced.
