Chapter 603: There's No Place in Life Where We Can't Meet Each Other (6)

While remaining vigilant, Isabel Smith discreetly pulls out her mobile phone, feigning casual play. She chuckles sporadically at her phone, meanwhile her fingers type out a rapid message to Percy Stanton: "A stranger has invaded my home."

Having sent this message, Isabel quickly deletes her own text, proceeding to silence her phone.

What she fears is Percy seeing the message and calling her, inadvertently alarming the stranger in her room.

Then she continues to send the details of what she's observed to Percy: "I don't know if that person has left yet, but whatever you do, don't call me. It could blow my cover and alert him."

No sooner has she sent this message than a new one comes in on her mobile. Isabel laughs, slapping her bed. She scans Percy's reply: "I'm on my way."

Seeing his words, Isabel feels somewhat reassured. She continues to feign playing with her phone, replying to Percy: "Okay."
