    Isabe held the cup, momentarily speechless. You’ve already taken a sip from it, and


    now you want me to drink from the same cup?


    Undeterred, Seth brought the cup to her lips. “Hmm?” he questioned.


    Isabe found herself caught in a mental struggle, unable to find the right words to


    express her feelings. Sincest night, she had noticed Seth behaving strangely. The


    incident this morning was odd, and now it was even more perplexing.


    This subtle flirtation was more dangerous than an overt offense. She was fully aware of


    it, yet she couldn’t outright refuse. Maintaining herposure, Isabe turned the


    around and took a sip from the side that Seth hadn’t touched, then quickly put the li


    back on.


    Seth raised an eyebrow, withdrew his gaze, and rested his temple on his hand, closing

    his eyes once again.

    Isabe kept her face calm, but her eyes betrayed a hint of confusion as she tried her


    best to avoid looking at Seth. Driving back to Imperia from Bleaktown was a shorter


    and smoother journeypared to taking a ne.


    Considering Seth’s unusual injury, going through security checks would have been


    troublesome, so driving back directly was a better option.


    Throughout the journey, Seth kept his eyes closed, clearly not in the best condition.


    Isabe thought about the wound. If it had been slightly off, it could have been fatal.


    The thought sent shivers down her spine. She didn’t close her eyes for the entire trip.

    Upon reaching Imperia, even before they entered the city, Erin’s call came through.

    Jordan didn’t hand the phone to Seth but instead gave it directly to Isabe.


    “It’s from Mrs. Shaffer,” he informed her.


    Isabe was surprised, took the phone, and greeted Erin quietly.


    “Be, are you and Seth okay?” Erin asked.


    Isabe nced at Seth and whispered, “We’re fine.”


    “So, when you get home, are you going to abandon Seth?” Erin sighed.


    Isabe was puzzled, finding the choice of words strange.


    Erin continued, “Seth is injured, and he’s not being cooperative. If you don’t coax him, he


    definitely won’t take his medicine or rest.”

    Isabe pouted, knowing that Seth’s stubbornness couldn’t be solved by coaxing. “Mrs.


    Shaffer, the butler can…”


    “No,” Erin interrupted, making a direct request. “My dear girl, why don’t you stay at the


    mansion for a few days and take care of Seth?”


    Isabe was taken aback. Although grateful, this request seemed a bit excessive.


    Thinking about it, ever since she mentioned resigning to Seth, they had been constantly


    getting hurt, indicating their ipatibility.


    She turned to look at Seth, who had just opened his eyes. He had been sleeping for half


    of the journey, and now that he was awake, he immediately disyed impatience.


    Isabe thought he was going to lose his temper, but Seth simply nced at her,


    pressed his thin lips together tightly, and hummed before closing his eyes again.


    On the phone, Erin continued to persuade her. Looking out the window, they were

    already on their way to the mansion.


    “Be, please, take care of Seth for me. Seth is all alone. He’s so pitiful.”


    Isabe remained silent.


    “I leave him in your care. Love you,” Erin said.

    The call came to an end. Isabe handed the phone back to Jordan without saying a


    word. Seth had suffered a serious injury this time, and it would take at least twoCopyright N?v/el/Dra/ma.Org.


    months for him to recover.


    If she were to take care of him, it would require at least ten days to half a month. This


    was truly troublesome.


    Just as she was contemting, the car had already arrived near the mansion. The old


    butler was waiting outside with a crowd, as if they were weing an emperor.

    The car came to a stop, but Seth didn’t open his eyes. No one dared to call out to him,


    so everyone inside and outside could only wait.


    Jordan sat in the front, sping his hands together and making a pleading gesture


    toward Isabe.


    Isabe remained silent.
