Chapter 305 Encountering A Rascal
“Mr. Shaffer, your face is more valuable than money,” Isabe yfully teased Seth.
As he walked behind her, Seth casually lifted his chin and said with an air of arrogance,
“Ordinary people like you probably fail toprehend the weight of our
responsibilities.”
Tsk-
Isabe inwardly scoffed. I am attractive as well, but I never make such grandiose
statements.
The two bantered all the way, crossing half of the vige. They finally arrived at the
vige square after crossing a small bridge where several stalls were selling various
goods.

Being in a remote area, seeing such a small market was much more exciting than
encountering a supermarket in the city.
Isabe was delighted. But she didn’t forget to look for something important.
Finally, she found it hidden away and tugged at Seth’s sleeve.
“Mr. Shaffer, I found it.”
Seth asked, “What?”
Isabe lowered her voice. “Public restroom-”
Seth was speechless.
His face stiffened, and his expression became quiteplicated.

Isabe suppressed herughter as she took out a pack of tissues from her pocket and
handed it to him. “You go ahead. I’ll wait for you here.”
Seth pursed his thin lips. He nced at the unattractive public restroom and seemed
somewhat resistant.
Isabe had no choice but to take out a mask from her pocket and put it on Seth
directly.
The strong scent of roses hit his nose. Under normal circumstances, Seth would find it
distasteful, but now it was different. This strong scent forcefully repelled the
unpleasant smells of fish and meat in the market, acting like a lifesaver.
Isabe pushed him, saying, “Go on.”
Seth had nothing to say. Any further hesitation would seem overly pretentious.

He red at Isabe, still wanting to maintain hisposure. “Wait here. Don’t wander
off.”
Isabe nodded. “Okay.”
Seth furrowed his brow and headed toward the public restroom.
Isabe breathed a sigh of relief. Then, she turned around to ask the elderlydy next to
her about the price of tomatoes.
As the elderlydy was packing tomatoes for her, she nodded toward the direction Seth
had gone. “That is your boyfriend, huh.”
Isabe chuckled awkwardly, opting not to deny it. She realized that offering too much
exnation in this setting would likely result in more confusion.
The elderlydy sighed, “City boys are so delicate, too.”

Isabe stuck out her tongue. This was not a generalization of city men but rather a
She picked up the tomatoes and ventured off to search for oregano leaves. Isabe had
in mind to prepare marinara sauce, a recipe she had experimented with in the past.
Passing by stalls offering meat and fish, she contemted the idea but ultimately
dismissed it. She knew well that shecked the culinary skills to prepare such dishes.
Luckily, she stumbled upon ready-made meatballs-a perfect addition that could be
easily cooked with the marinara sauce.
“Sir, I’d like a pound of meatballs.”
Isabe stood in front of the stall and called out. The stall owner came out to weigh it
for her. With many people around, the process of collecting money and giving change
was quite busy.

Suddenly, Isabe felt a hand wrap around her waist.
She turned around abruptly, ring at the person who touched her.
Indeed, a man stood behind her, with his clothes disheveled, hair unkempt, and a
leering expression on his face.
“Heydy, are you from the city?”
Isabe felt disgusted and instinctively stepped back.
The stall owner weighed the meatballs and saw that Isabe was being harassed, so he
quickly intervened. “Gasly, stop embarrassing yourself. Thedy is here to support our
businesses.”
The man named Gasly chuckled and shamelessly scanned Isabe. “Stop pretending.
Aren’t you here to check out my aunt’s treasures?”

Isabe was repulsed and turned to take the meatballs from the stall owner, wanting to
leave as soon as possible.
However, as soon as she started to move, the man obstructed her way.
