Chapter 471 Thank You
After breakfast, only Victoria appeared pleased.

Isabe had to force herself to eat during the meal. She didn’t want to listen carefully to
what Victoria was saying, especially in front of the stern and cold-faced Seth. The
difference in their backgrounds was too obvious, and every word reminded her not to
hold onto unrealistic fantasies.
Seth also felt ufortable. On one hand, he didn’t want to offend Victoria, but on the
other hand, he felt that everything she said was nonsense!
The only thing that made him happy was that she had sobered up and urged them to
return to Imperia that day.
“Mom, | want to stay with you a little longer,” said Isabe.
“There’s no need. I’m fine,” Victoria reassured. As long as she didn’t have an episode,

she was just like any other person, constantly urging them to leave.
Isabe knew that Seth couldn’t stay in Bleaktown for long. Even if Victoria hadn’t
mentioned it, he would have had to leave that very day.
“Then, I''lle back to see you in a couple of days.”
“There''s no need to.”
Victoria stood at the entrance of the sanatorium and insisted on watching Isabe get
in the car.
Isabe had no choice but to call Joey to pick her up. When they met, Seth snorted
coldly in the car.
Joey was a smart man. He exchanged a nce with Isabe, didn’t say more than
necessary, and coaxed Victoria back into the sanatorium.

Finally, the car started, and Isabe heard Seth let out a sigh of relief.
“| apologize for the dy.”
Seth’s displeasure had nothing to do with the time. He simply felt that Victoria was
oppressive, and it led him to think about Isabe’s upbringing.
He couldn''t help but look back at her. “What was your childhood like?”
Isabe didn’t understand what he meant and said lightly, “When | was little, my mother
was quite normal, not like she is now.”
She leaned back in her seat, reminiscing about her childhood, and added, “Then on
day, she suddenly didn’t recognize me anymore and locked me outside, saying | wasn’t
her daughter.”
Distant memories rushed back to her mind, and the lingering fear in her bones instantly

stirred up negative emotions. She took a deep breath and barely managed to suppress
hér emotions.
Seth averted his gaze, feeling irritated.
He could sense that Victoria meant more to Isabe than anything else. There was no
doubt Isabe would truly listen to her mother and one day, she might casually marry
anyone.
“If you were asked to marry Nics, would you be willing?”
Isabe was taken aback by his question. “Nics?”
She gave a wry smile. “Mr. Shaffer, did you take my mom’s words seriously?”
He sure knew how to get things done.
Seth muttered something inexplicable and then suddenly fell silent.

The atmosphere grew silent. Isabe felt oppressed, so she turned around and close
her eyes to rest.
Around half past ten a.m., the car arrived in the city of Imperia.
Seth had someone send Isabe back to the mansion, as he had other matters to
attend to.
Before he got out of the car, Isabe spoke up in a serious tone, “Thank you, Mr.
Shaffer.”
Seth frowned. He sensed a negative vibe and found himself unable to look aw
her.
The car door closed, and he lingered there for a moment until Jordan came up to
remind him.
“Mr. Shaffer, Mr. Klenns is waiting.”

Inside the car, Isabe couldn''t quite
catch Seth''s words. She didn’t bother
lifting her
head and could only see his shirt.
The next moment, Seth let go of the
door handle and walked straight to
the car in front.
There were four cars in total, which formed two groups that went in opposite
directions.
Isabe sat in the car, recalling what
Victoria and Spencer had said. Her
expression
remained calm, and her thoughts were even more collected.
