Leave Me Alone, Mr Shaffer by Diana Tenny novel Chapter 109

Chapter 109

The thick-skinned Isabella shrugged. “Selena guided me well.”

“Alright, she’ll continue teaching you tomorrow.” Seth mercifully looked away

as he picked up his knife and said firmly, “Tomorrow, I wish to see cordon

bleu, sole meuniere, lamb with herb stuffing, and hasselback potatoes.”

Isabella had no words. None whatsoever. Still, she took care to maintain the

standard smile on her face as she took a seat across from Seth. “Mr. Frost,

Selena might not know how to cook those dishes you just mentioned.”

Forget everything else. Just the lamb with herbed stuffing he had mentioned

was a little overboard because it was a dish served at royal dinners.

Seth didn’t even bother lifting his head as he said breezily, “That shouldn’t be

a problem since you’re so talented.”

Isabella was dumbstruck as she started lamenting in her heart, One shouldn’t

do anything against their conscience. Otherwise, retribution will strike at any

time.

“Eat some. You should try a little of your achievement.” Seth’s eyes were filled

with schadenfreude when he noticed that she hadn’t started with her meal.

Unfortunately for Isabella, she was full due to all the rage that was surging

her body. Nevertheless, she picked up her fork and shoveled something in her

mouth despite having no appetite.

The office was incredibly silent. She could only hear the sounds of Seth’s

cutleries lightly touching the plates. The food tasted like ash in her mouth as

she wondered how she could get past the obstacle he had set for her

As she recalled that she had something important tonight, she smiled

bitterly. I don’t even know if I can live until lunchtime tomorrow. Yet, here I am,

already thinking about Seth’s lunch menu. Have I lost my mind? When she

arrived at that thought, she felt herself getting hungry as she calmly ate the

mood before her.

Seth just happened to look up and capture the change in her mood. He

instinctively slowed down his pace. Coupled with the way he stared at her, he

unknowingly exuded a sense of ambiguity that seemed a little intrusive.

Isabella raised her head and noticed him staring at her. As she thought of

what she was planning, she was momentarily struck by guilt. Although she

feared that she had accidentally exposed herself somehow, she still inquired,

“Mr. Frost?”

“You haven’t been up to anything bad lately, have you?” he asked

inquisitively.

Isabella’s flickered, and she lowered her head to spit out the bone in her

mouth. “The company is preparing for the car show recently, and I have tons

of work to do. I don’t have the time to do anything of the sort.”

Since she was wearing shades, he couldn’t see the look in her eyes and had

one thing less to guide his judgment. He frowned as he reached out and

wanted to remove her sunnies again.

Immediately, Isabella retreated and curled into herself like an agitated

porcupine. “What are you trying to do?”

He put down his fork. “I’m just curious how ugly you are right now.”

The edge of her lips twitched, and she didn’t move a muscle. The injury on her

face was on its way to recovery. The swelling had subsided, and the messy

cuts were scabbing.”

lunchtime, and I don’t want to spoil your appetite. It’s
