Leave Me Alone, Mr Shaffer

Chapter 138

Seth sat sternly on the side, tilting his head slightly, supporting his temples

with just two fingers, and looked at Isabella with a smirk that wasn’t quite a

smile. “Someone is supporting you now, so your tone has changed.”

She frowned, glanced at Gordon beside her, and probably guessed what

these two had just said. Facing Seth’s gaze, she didn’t back down. “If you

know someone is backing me up, you should show me more respect in the

future.”

The hint of a false smile in his eyes instantly froze. Maintaining the same

posture, he stared at her intently. After a while, he chuckled. “The person

supporting you doesn’t mean much to me. Do you think you deserve my

respect?”

Seth finished speaking, and Gordon had already stepped forward before

Isabella could retort.

“Seth, stop pretending. Ás long as I’m here, keep your hands off her. You can

give it a try.”

She was helpless. She had only wanted to have a conversation but Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

accidentally ignited something. Surprisingly, she couldn’t control the

situation.

“You’re foolish.” Seth didn’t even spare a glance for Gordon, straightened up,

and looked at the doctor behind Gordon. “Why are you just standing there? Is

her leg taken care of?”

The doctor, caught up in observing the commotion, had paused in his

actions. When Seth called out to him suddenly, he couldn’t help but feel a bit

embarrassed. He quickly lowered his head and resumed his work.

The atmosphere was tense. Isabella’s mind went blank, and even the pain in

her leg became numb.

No one said a word. Only Gordon stood assertively, like a protective bird

guarding her chick.

Seth didn’t even bother to glance at Gordon, showing impatience to leave,

constantly checking the time on his wrist.

Isabella noticed his actions and couldn’t help but say, “Mr. Shaffer, if you’re

too busy, you can go first.”

“Do I need your permission to leave?” Seth shot her a disdainful look, sending

a sharp gaze in her direction.

She bit her lip, rolled her eyes behind Gordon, and kept silent, choosing not to

speak.

After a while, the doctor finished treating her wounds and carefully explained

the details. “It’s better for you to stay in the hospital for observation.”

“I have to stay here?” She frowned, looking at the doctor with confusion. “Is it

that serious?”

“This is a steel needle, not an embroidery needle.” The doctor’s expression

was speechless as he threw the forceps in his hand into alcohol.

Isabella was at a loss for words, silent for a moment. She didn’t want to stay

in the hospital, yet she was worried that there might be a real problem with

her leg. She was in a dilemma.

“What are you thinking? Just stay if you need to.” Gordon turned around,

directly deciding for her, swiftly taking out a card. “I’ll go pay for you.”

She found it hard to make a decision, hesitating to speak. However, he didn’t

wait for her to gather her thoughts and walked out.

She sighed helplessly, raised her head, and again locked eyes with Seth’s

indifferent gaze. Feeling uneasy, she turned her face away. She didn’t want to

give him much attention and avoid showing any vulnerability.

Gordon acted quickly, and in no time, he had arranged everything related to

the ward.

Isabella initially thought about walking over, but Gordon swooped in, picking

her up in one smooth motion, leaving no room for anyone else to intervene.

Seth watched coldly, making no sound, but followed them to the ward.

When Gordon carried her, Isabella felt tense. She refrained from leaning

against him, aware that in Seth’s world, she was still considered his property

-perhaps a used one. Being his possession, she believed others shouldn’t

defile her.

Meanwhile, Seth stayed quiet the whole time. He was definitely up to

something, or perhaps he was just keeping a major plan under wraps.

Once in the ward, Gordon busied himself, completely ignoring Seth’s

presence. The atmosphere had dropped to freezing point.

She had a headache worse than the pain in her leg. Anxiously, her mind felt

like it was on the verge of exploding. At a critical moment, the door to the

hospital room swung open from the outside.

Led by Alex, a group of women, along with Jonas, who had more severe

injuries than Isabella and a bandage wrapped around his head.

“Why did you all come?” Isabella was surprised.

Everyone squeezed in, only to find Seth blocking the way, showing not

intention of moving aside.

The scene became comical, with several people maintaining their

squeezed-in positions, frozen at the doorway, afraid to accidentally touch

Seth.

“We saw your car accident in the aerial footage, so we came to check on

you.” Alex gathered the courage to speak, lacking his usual confidence. He

didn’t even dare to glance too much behind Seth.

Observing their discomfort, Isabella felt the urge to speak up. However,

worried that Seth might not take it well, she hesitated, ultimately choosing to

stay silent. But if she didn’t say anything, perhaps someone else would, less

tactfully.

Seizing the opportunity, Abigail pushed past Alex and headed straight for

Seth. “Mr. Shaffer, don’t stand at the door; it’s very unsafe.” She mimicked a

girlish tone, coquettishly speaking while throwing flirtatious glances at Seth.

Isabella rolled her eyes, mentally preparing to light a candle for this foolish

person in advance.

As expected, Seth lowered his gaze the next second and bluntly remarked,

“What is that disgusting smell on you?”
