After I Stopped Loving Him novel Chapter 850

Isabella was just pulling out of the parking lot when she spotted Natalie stepping out of the building across the street. Natalie was standing on the curb, trying to hail a taxi.

The second Natalie caught sight of Isabella’s car, she waved, signaling for her to stop. Isabella recognized her right away and drove over, pulling up to the curb.

She rolled down her window and looked at Natalie. “What are you doing here?”

Natalie didn’t bother to be secretive. “I’m planning to start a new company and need an office. I heard there was a spot for rent here, so I came to check it out.”

She grinned, a little too pleased with herself. “I already signed the lease. It’s actually your old studio. I don’t even have to redecorate, just clean up a bit and it’s ready to go.”

“Isabella, looks like our companies are going to be neighbors now. I hope you’ll take care of me.”

Isabella glanced at the building behind her. “You need to rent an office? Natalie, you could just buy a whole building if you wanted. Why bother with renting?”

“Can I get in? Let’s go to your coffee shop, grab a coffee, and catch up for a bit.”

Isabella’s voice was cool. “I’m busy. I don’t have time for that. If you want to support my business, you can take a taxi over. Since we go way back, I’ll tell Laura to give you a discount.”

“Where are you headed?” Natalie asked.

“I’ve got something to take care of,” Isabella replied, not about to tell her rival anything else.

“Could you give me a ride, at least?”

“I’ll give you a ride when you’re beyond saving.”
