Seth firmly held Isabe’s face, but only brushed away the two strands of hair on her
face before letting go.

Isabe remained tense, not fully understanding what had just happened. “M-Mr.
Shaffer?
Seth said, “I have OCD. Does that bother you?”
Isabe was speechless. Alright, whatever you say. She blinked and opened her mouth,
but found herself at a loss for words.
They stared at each other, locked in a standoff. Seth snorted, shifted his hands from
one pocket to both pockets, and casually walked away.
Isabe stood behind him, blinking rapidly, still bewildered. After a while, the sound of
fireworks could be heard from outside, and she finally snapped out of her daze, picked

up her purse, and headed out.
Fireworks were not allowed in Imperia, but somehow, Courtney managed to obtain a
permit for a public disy.
The restaurant upied arge area of thewn, and the entire sky was filled with
vibrant colors. Isabe descended, arriving just as the fireworks were about to end and
the next segment was about to begin.
The Cline Family, originally from Flinton, had a ritual called bless-spreading whenever
they opened new shops. This involved scattering sugar above the house, which friends
and family would catch below.
Courtney modified the tradition. She not only scattered sugar but also small pieces of
jewelry like rings and nes, as well as various trinkets.
By the time Isabe arrived, the area below the main restaurant was already crowded

with people, mostly girls.
Mandy appeared out of nowhere and pulled Isabe into the crowd. Still caught up in
the shock of the man named Seth, Isabe was pulled along without any enthusiasm or
interest.
Someone came over to distribute tools, including all sorts of peculiar items like pots,
bowls, spoons, and even umbres.
Isabe found it amusing to hold a small pot while standing in the crowd. A signal was
given, and the items began to rain down from above.
Worried about getting hit, Isabe raised her small pot high.
“Isabe, you should try to catch something!” Mandy shouted from behind.
Isabe was speechless. Her pot was so small that it couldn’t even cover her head.

How could she possibly catch anything?
The ce was noisy and crowded, with various perfume scents blending together.
Isabe felt dizzy and just wanted to make sure she didn’t get hurt.
Suddenly, she heard the sound of things falling from above. Objects kept hitting her
small pot,rge chunks of them, as if someone had specifically targeted her pot.
Within moments, the pot became so heavy that she couldn’t hold it up any longer.
Isabe ran out with her eyes closed, but the objects continued to hit the pot with great
force. It took her a lot of effort to turn around and escape. She took off the pot and
looked inside, unable to help but open her mouth wide in astonishment.
There was hardly any sugar in the pot. Instead, it was filled with various small items lik
rings, bracelets, nes, and asionally a piece or two of chocte. All the jewelry
was neatly wrapped in small bags, incredibly delicate.

No wonder it was so heavy. It was a small pot filled with jewelry. She alone had
received so much. Considering the size of the crowd, wouldn’t Courtney go bankrupt?
On the second floor, by the window, Courtney raised her hand and forcefully nudged the
person next to her. “Pay up.”
Seth leaned against the wall, his eyes closed. “Is this ckmail?”
“Don’t y innocent,” she retorted, rolling her eyes. She nced at Isabe, who was
didn’t get any, wouldn’t they use me of being stingy?”
Seth opened his eyes, his gaze falling downstairs. “What does her good luck have to
with me?”
