Leave Me Alone, Mr Shaffer by Diana Tenny novel Chapter 171

Chapter 171

Seth stood at the top of the stairs, looking down at everyone below him. It

was evident that he had been drinking as his eyes had turned slightly red. His

lips were moist, and Isabella could see the lights above reflecting off them.

After locking eyes with Seth, she glanced at Gordon, who stood beside her.

Isabella felt guilty when she noticed the disdain in Seth’s gaze. Despite

repeatedly assuring him that there was nothing between her and Gordon,

she had gotten too close to him earlier. Anyone who saw them together

Isabella tensed up but smiled and nodded at Leonard. Coincidentally, the

waiter returned with the custom-made boxes. Leonard took the boxes and

selected two jellyfish before handing them to Isabella. “You like jellyfish, right?

I’ll send you two more when the new ones arrive in a few days.”

Isabella froze for a moment. She hadn’t expected Leonard to be so polite.

“There’s no need for such trouble. I was just amused by them,” she replied.

However, Leonard continued to hold out the jellyfish with a smile. He had a

gentle, well-groomed appearance that most women found attractive. Even

Isabella couldn’t help but let her guard down around him.
