    Isabe felt guilty. Her rtionship with Seth had been unclear before, and she worried


    that if they stayed together under the same roof, even for just one night, Victoria would


    see through it.


    “Do you not have any other houses?” Isabe asked.


    “Why would | buy so many houses in Bleaktown for no reason?” Seth replied.


    Isabe considered suggesting that he stay in a hotel, but then she thought it would be


    inappropriate since the house belonged to Seth.


    “Then I''ll take my mother back to our old house.”


    “Your old house hasn’t been visited for years. It might have been taken over by rats,”


    Seth spoke without any courtesy.

    Isabe was speechless.


    “I''ll stay in the backyard, away from your mother,” Seth offered, taking a step back.


    Isabe breathed a sigh of relief. “Does the house have two entrances?”


    Seth responded indifferently.


    With nothing more to say, Isabe forcefully pulled her arm away.


    “I''ll go settle my mother first.”


    “Your mother is fine now. You don’t need to follow her everywhere.”


    He took the opportunity to grab her again, then forcefully pulled her into the car.


    “Drive.”

    Isabe was startled. She sat up straight and quickly called Victoria in the car ahead,


    telling her not to be afraid.


    Seeing her nervousness, Seth snorted lightly, but hisplexion eased.


    The vi was nearby and not veryrge. Victoria was taken to the front yard while


    Isabe followed Seth to the backyard.


    “I''ll go check on my mother.”


    As soon as the car stopped, Isabe immediately went to open the car door, not giving


    Seth a chance to stop her.

    In the front yard, Victoria got out of the car and didn’t see Isabe at first, feeling a bit

    uneasy. But soon, Isabe ran over from the back.


    “Mom, let’s go inside first.”


    Victoria looked around at the people nervously. “Be, are these your boss’ people?”


    Isabe nodded. “Yes. He lent them to me.”


    “Your boss is a good person.”


    As Victoria spoke, a look of sadness appeared on her face. “I’ve caused you trouble.”


    Isabe felt a pang in her heart. Holding back her tears, she helped Victoria into the


    house.


    The house was very clean, as if someone had just cleaned it the day before.


    Victoria was full of emotions, holding Isabe’s hand and continuously asking about


    Seth’s situation.


    “I''ve seen him.”


    Isabe was startled. “What?”


    Victoria smiled and said, “On TV.”


    Isabe breathed a sigh of relief. She had been quite scared.


    “He looks quite young and handsome.”


    Victoria listed one point after another,


    then suddenly grabbed Isabe''s


    hand, stal


    her. Not long after, tears flowed down her face.


    Isabe quickly squatted down. “Mom, what''s wrong?”


    “I''m sorry, Be. I’ve held you back...”

    Victoria’s words were fragmented, but Isabe could roughly understand that she was


    apologizing for not giving her a better life.


    She patted Victoria''s back,


    comforting her softly, “Mom, it’s

    “No.” Victoria shook her head


    vigorously, grabbing Isabe''s hand.


    “Be, don''t me


    Mom, okay?”


    Isabe was confused by her words, but she could only nod her head.


    After reassuring her several times, Victoria’s fluctuating emotions finally calmed
