Chapter 477
Isabella averted her gaze, holding the clothes and stepping aside. “These are the only
ones left, even though they’re out-of-season.
Seth walked past her, casually taking the clothes, and entered the bedroom as if he was
familiar with the place. Isabella stood in the living room, her mind in chaos as she
waited, so she decided to start cleaning.
With each step she took from the kitchen to the living room, she found herself walking
on a wet surface. She had to use a mop to soak up the water and then pour it into the
sink. What was supposed to be a pleasant evening had turned into a disaster, leaving
her physically and mentally exhausted.
With a click, the door behind her opened. Seth emerged from the room, his collar
unbuttoned, and his face slightly off.
Isabella noticed him tugging at his collar and suspected that something was wrong.

“What’s the matter?”

“There’s something on the back,” Seth replied.
Isabella put down what she was holding and walked over. “Do you want me to take a
look?”
Seth nodded and sat down on the couch. Isabella stood behind him. She wanted to
maintain some distance, but she couldn’t see clearly from afar. So she had to keep her
abdomen away and tiptoe to get a better look, which looked quite amusing.
“It appears to be a loose thread. I’ll cut it off with scissors,” she said, then quickly went
to the kitchen.
In the living room, Seth stared at her retreating figure, his thin lips tightly pressed, his
eyes filled with an indescribable depth.
Isabella returned with the scissors and waved them at Seth, “it’ll be fine once it’s cut

off.”
Seth remained silent but lowered his head. As he did, a large patch of skin on the back
of his neck was exposed.
Isabella glanced at it and immediately noticed a patch of skin that wasn’t very smooth.
It was the aftermath of a burn. Her heart skipped a beat, and she immediately thought
of something else.
“Your arm!” She blurted out unconsciously.
Seth slightly turned his face and said, “It’s been half a month. It won’t bleed anymore.”
Just because it wasn’t bleeding didn’t mean it wouldn’t affect the recovery. Isabella
took a breath, feeling uneasy.
She lowered her head, intending to quickly cut off the loose thread. However, the

scissors were so blunt from lack of use that they couldn’t do the job. She had to make a
sawing motion to cut the thread loose.
Seth straightened his back and raised his hand to button up, but suddenly, he winced in
pain.
“Does your arm hurt?” Isabella gingerly asked
He put down his hand. “Help me button it up.”
It was just buttoning a button and not an excessive request. Isabella hesitated for a
moment, walked around the couch, and stood in front of Seth.
Seth remained seated. As she reached out her hand, he suddenly stood up.
In an instant, she didn’t have time to step back and staggered a bit.
