Chapter 158


    Seth’s eyes widened, and he quickly moved backward. However, since he


    was seated, it was easy for Isabe to hit him, and the bowl of noodles ended


    up covering his head!


    The warm soup streamed down his handsome face and soaked his entire


    designer suit.


    Seth, who was usually aloof and aristocratic, now looked ridiculous with a


    stic bowl on his head.


    Isabe had done something significant, and she felt both excited and


    fearful. She clenched her fists while maintaining eye contact with him.


    Seth was infuriated as he reached to remove the bowl. He still wore an

    incredulous expression.


    In his nearly twenty-seven years of life, no one, from top to bottom, had


    dared to treat him like this.


    “Isabe-”


    Isabe swallowed hard, and her voice was strained. “If you dare say those


    ridiculous things again, there will be a next time!”


    Seth’s jaw tightened, and his eyes were filled with rage. He was on the verge-


    of losing control and perhaps even strangling her!


    The volcanic eruption of anger, which should have been directed entirely at


    Isabe, was held back by Seth’s ingrained aristocratic upbringing. He


    refused to harm a woman.

    He felt utterly stifled as he scanned the room. He chose a target abruptly and


    smashed a ss vase on the nightstand onto the floor.


    Crash! The shattering sound echoed throughout the room, crisp and


    frighteningly clear.


    Upon looking at the shards scattered across the floor, Isabe feared she


    might face the same fate.


    Seth clenched his fists and red at Isabe, who was hiding the fear in her


    eyes. “Isabe, I’ve been too lenient with you.”


    Isabe’s fear became evident, but she remained motionless. Every cell in


    her body was on high alert.


    As the tension lingered, she felt that he was contemting hitting her.

    Suddenly, the door to the ward swung open, and a nurse peeked in.


    “Is everything all right?”


    Seth didn’t even turn his head and bellowed, “Get lost!”


    The nurse was startled. She stood at the door and was uncertain. She


    nced at Isabe and then at Seth’s back.


    Having received professional training, the nurse mustered her courage and


    asked, “Miss, do you need me to call the police?”


    After she finished her sentence, a cold and fierce gaze shot her way.


    Isabe was concerned about involving others, so she spoke reluctantly.


    “Sorry. It’s fine. No need.”

    The nurse was intimidated as she nced at Seth and hurriedly retreated


    from the room.


    Silence returned to the room, only broken by Seth’s enraged breathing, which


    was hitting Isabe’s taut nerves one after another.


    “You’d better change your clothes.” Isabe didn’t dare to look up, trying her


    best to avoid eye contact with Seth.


    Seth’s gaze lowered as he looked down at the woman in front of him with


    intense hostility. “You’d better tell me clearly how to get rid of this filth on me!”


    Isabe closed her eyes and was ready to face her fate. “Get someone to


    pick you up now, go back to the vi, take a shower, and you’ll be clean in half


    an hour.”

    “Isabe!” The man’s thunderous roar probably rattled half the hospital floor.


    Her heart skipped a beat, but she held her ground. “You provoked me first. I


    only acted out of anger.”


    In other words, he was the one who asked for it.


    Seth picked up on the hidden meaning in her words, and it infuriated him


    even more. He forced out a twisted smile.


    He chuckled several times. It was sinister and terrifying, more menacing than


    his earlier rage.


    Isabe eyed him warily. She was ready to jump off the bed and run at any


    moment.

    “You’re rejecting me, huh?” the man asked with a cold smirk.


    She shook her head firmly. “I don’t have the right to reject you. I just don’t think


    I’m suitable. Mr. Shaffer, I hope you-”


    “Mr. Shaffer this! Mr. Shaffer that! Are you a weing hostess?!” Seth nearly


    exploded with anger. He couldn’t believe how difficult this woman was,


    considering how easy it was to get her into the lounge with just a little


    -sweetness in the past.


    Isabe was speechless as she pursed her lips. “From a professional


    standpoint, I’m an employee of yourpany. Using politenguage is not


    wrong.”


    “All right, fine. Isabe, you win.” The man put his hands on his waist, closed


    his eyes, and took a deep breath. He warned, his voice nearing a shout,

    “You’d better note to beg me for anything again!”


    She pouted. She was unsure herself. The rate at which her skills were


    improving couldn’t match the speed at which problems arose. She had


    issues to deal with here, and now she had offended Seth like an idiot again.


    However, in this situation, saving her reputation was crucial; she couldn’t


    afford to back down no matter what.


    She lifted her head and locked eyes with Seth. “Rest assured. Even if I have to


    die, I’ll never ask for your help again.”


    Wait a minute. I didn’t mean to sound so absolute! I should have left myself a


    way out!


    Regret flooded her the moment she finished speaking. She needed to

    maintain a perfect facade even if her emotions were close to crumbling.


    Seth looked down at the fiercely determined woman with a chilling smile on


    his face. He nodded repeatedly. “Good! You’ve got some guts!”
