Ten minutes later, Isabella sat in the passenger seat of Corey’s car with a sullen face, 

her mind in complete disarray, unsure of how she had ended up in this situation. 

Leonard’s seafood restaurant was a place she dreaded, as she was almost certain to 

run into Seth there. 

Lately, she had managed to maintain a normal superior-subordinate relationship 

without seeing him. It would be a problem to even greet him if they met privately. 

She was annoyed, and Corey, sitting next to her, kept affectionately calling her “Bella” as 

if he were her younger brother. 

Upon arriving at the restaurant, Corey parked the car. 

Isabella followed him with heavy footsteps.

Corey wore a smile on his face, seemingly oblivious to her discomfort, and walked 

ahead on his own. 

Just as they reached the staircase, two groups of people came toward them. 

康 

Isabella was lost in thought when she heard a gasp. She looked up and almost had a 

heart attack on the spot. 

Leonard was leading Simon and Dariel, apparently having just finished ordering their 

fish, followed by several waiters. 

Gordon and Tyrone were with Freya and Lyra, clearly having just arrived. 

The three groups collided, and the scene froze for a moment. 

Isabella was on the verge of a breakdown, screaming inwardly.

Freya had just been consoled by Lyra. Seeing Isabella and Corey together, she burst into 

tears again, trembling as she accused, “Corey, didn’t you say you didn’t like…” 

Corey, with one hand in his pocket, turned to Isabella and winked. Then he answered, 

“Please don’t misunderstand this. Leonard invited us to dinner, and I just brought Bella, 

who’s like my sister, along.” 

Isabella forced a laugh. “Yes, I’m here to freeload on Mr. Leonard’s meal.” 

“You guys look chummy.” Leonard’s gaze swept over them, and then he exchanged a 

strange look with Dariel. “Why don’t we all go up? We can have a good time together. 

My treat.” 

Gordon was not pleased and objected. “There’s no need.”

“Sure!” Freya exclaimed. 

Everyone else kept quiet. 

Freya didn’t care, her eyes fixed on Corey. “I like it when there’s a crowd.” 

Everyone understood what she meant and couldn’t help but be amused by this girl. 

Gordon and his group gritted their teeth, wishing they could break off their friendship 

with Freya on the spot. 

The three groups were stuck at the staircase, creating an awkward scene. Simon 

stepped forward to greet them. 

“Let’s go upstairs first.” 

“Right.” Corey nodded, smiling at Isabella. “You must be hungry, right?”

His voice was loud enough for everyone to hear. 

Leonard and his group collectively raised their eyebrows, ready for a show. 

And Gordon glared at them, ready to challenge the law on the spot. 

Isabella kept a poker face, her spirit almost dissipating, not wanting to speak. 

Corey seemed oblivious as he walked behind everyone, insisting on walking side by 

side with Isabella. 

There were only about twenty steps in total. He watched his steps the whole way and 

reminded Isabella three times. 

Isabella couldn’t figure out what this man was up to. She held back her smile and 

followed him upstairs. As soon as they reached the second floor, she heard a voice 

from inside.

“Try this fried fish. It’s super delicious.” 

Is that Caitlin’s voice? 

Isabella reacted instantly and stopped in her tracks. 

Corey noticed her strange expression and smiled kindly. “What’s wrong, Bella?” 

Isabella felt a sharp pain in her temple. Leonard had already pushed open the door to 

the private room in front of her. 

“Make some space, everyone. Our esteemed guests have arrived.” 

“Who?” Caitlin stood up and peered out, first seeing Freya and the others. 

She couldn’t help but sneer in her heart. Esteemed guests? Pfft!

Just as she was about to sit down, her gaze swept over and landed on Isabella and 

Corey, who had just entered the room. 

“Isabella?!” 

As she spoke, Isabella swallowed, looked up, and met the intense gaze of the man 

sitting across from her. 

Seth remained silent, merely lifting his eyelids, then shifted his gaze away, as if he 

hadn’t noticed Isabella. 

Isabella breathed a sigh of relief and greeted everyone. 

The private room was originally meant for one table, but with nearly ten more people 

suddenly joining, it became a bit crowded.
