Chapter 145: It's easy to avoid open flirtation, but difficult to guard against hidden cheapness (6)

Isabel Smith could hear her own heartbeat rapidly increasing with excitement as she thought of returning to the Smith family home tomorrow.

For the entire afternoon, Isabel stayed home without going out. At three o'clock, she was so hungry that she rummaged around her house but only found a box of Mr. Ramen Instant Noodles. She boiled some hot water and made the instant noodles. It must have been because she was so famished that she drank even the soup down to the last drop.

After eating, she curled up in the living room sofa to watch TV. However, she couldn't focus on any shows despite changing channels repeatedly, which eventually led to a suffocating feeling in her chest.

Isabel finally gave up and turned off the TV, staring out the window to wait for the sunset. It must have been about seven or eight in the evening when she finally realized it was dark outside and another day had passed. Once she woke up the next morning, she would be able to return to the Smith family home.
