Ever since Iona had left the kitchen, she could not stop thinking about the incident in the kitchen. She usually did not live in the dormitory that the academy had arranged for her, but she remained in that dormitory that day after class, with an uneasy look on her face the whole time.
Iona did not know where the person would choose to meet her, so she could only choose a place that she believed would be the closest.
"Iona, what's wrong? You seem so restless."
"You seem very nervous."
A few of Iona's roommates noticed the strange look on her face.
"No, no!" Iona shook her head repeatedly. "I'm not nervous at all."
"Oh, come on, there's sweat all over your forehead!"
"Huh? Really?" Yuno subconsciously reached out to wipe away the sweat on her forehead.
At that precise moment, Iona's phone suddenly rang. She looked at the number and immediately knew who it was.
Iona."
"Yes! It's me." Iona pressed the phone tightly to her ear.
However, her roommate with sharp hearing was still able to hear a man's voice coming from the other side of the phone.
"I'm at Isaac Hotel, my room number eight. You can just come over." Henry hung up after saying that.
"Oh, okay." Iona nodded subconsciously then left the dormitory hurriedly.
As soon as Iona left the dormitory, her roommates began to gossip.
"Did you hearthat? It's a man's voice."
"He just called Iona to his room. Isaac Hotel, room eight, isn't that the one that's priced at one hundred and eight thousand eight hundred and eighty eight a night?"
"Judging from the tone of it, it sounds like an order."
"Heh heh, this Iona, she usually seems very proper, and seems to never set eyes on anyone. Yet now it seems that she likes to be ordered."
"Such a person is no more than just a slave in heart. She had just been pretending to be high and mighty." "That's right." The people in the dormitory all began criticizing Iona as they chatted amongst each other.
A long-haired lady that had been curled up in a corner listened to the discussion of the crowd. She took out her mobile phone and dialed a number, "Fingal, I just heard that Iona has gone to see another man."
"What!" A man's roar sounded on the other end of the phone. "Gone to see another man! When is she going to see him?! Where is she meeting the man?!"
"Isaac Hotel, room 8."
The man named Fingal hesitated a little. Anyone who could afford to live in room 8 of the Isaac Hotel was either super wealthy or of high status. After all, it's price of more than 100,000 per night was not a price that anyone could afford.
A few seconds later, Fingal opened his mouth and said, "Go to Isaac Hotel for me to keep an eye on her. See if you can take a picture of them and give it to me. I know some of the big shots in Prince City."
"All right."
When the woman heard that, she quickly changed her clothes and rushed to Isaac Hotel.
Henry sat quietly in the room. He chose that room because of the privacy it had. Its high price alone limited the presence of many people there, plus it was more convenient for them to talk under the sea.
Nearly 40 minutes later, someone knocked on Henry's doorbell. After confirming that it was Iona through the peephole, Henry opened the door.
The moment Henry opened the door, his face was captured.
"You haven't been followed, have you?" Henry locked the door and glanced at Iona.
Iona shook her head and quickly asked, "What exactly do you know about my brother?"
"Relax. I have already said that I wanted something in exchange from you. Go sit on the bed first." Henry pointed to one side.
"Huh?" Iona panicked. "You... if you want money, I can give it to you, but..."
