Leave Me Alone Mr Shaffer Novel

Seth hummed lightly, acknowledging her cunning nature and her unwillingness tolerate any loss.
Deliberately ignoring her, he waited for Isabella’s reaction.
Isabella had been speaking casually, but now she was extremely nervous.
The upstairs area was much larger than the downstairs, resembling more of a mini cocktail party than a small gathering.
Retired individuals with significant past roles how sought an outlet for their remaining energy at the shooting range. They sat on
the second floor, drinking and casually commenting on the performances at the range.
As soon as Seth appeared, he instantly became the center of attention.
Strictly speaking, he was indeed a third-generation military man and many individuals i the field had witnessed his growth.
No one was intentionally causing trouble for him, but there were numerous attempts to get him to drink.
“Seth, you’re heartless. It’s been so long since you’ve come to visit us.
“Is this your wife?”
“Which family does she belong to?”
A group of straightforward old men, their temperament was just like that of Spencer, each one more imposing than the last..
Isabella had no choice but to draw attention to herself.
“Let me toast to all the heroes of our country
With that, she downed three shots of liquor in a row.
As expected, the whole room was shocked, and all attention was on her.
Seth felt a sense of relief, but Isabella was in a tough spot, downing one shot after another.
Fortunately, Ariana couldn’t bear to show weakness and came up to toast, which finally diverted some of the attention.
Just as Isabella was on the verge of sighing in relief, a sudden dizziness overcame her

Her hand slid down Seth’s arm, unintentionally brushing against his hand.
In a split second, she went from about to release her grip to an immediate realizatio that something was wrong.
It was a sticky sensation.
Is this... blood?
Her drunkenness disappeared instantly.
When she looked up at Seth, she noticed that his face remained unchanged, and he was engaged in a conversation with
George.
A cold sweat broke out on Isabella’s back, and she subconsciously looked at the floor.
As expected, there were two drops of blood.
In an instant, her mind and body coordinated seamlessly.
With a clatter, the glass in her hand fell to the ground, conveniently covering the two drops of blood.
Everyone’s attention turned toward her.
She quickly covered her hand with an embarrassed expression, saying, “I’m sorry, it slipped from my hand.”
Seth turned around, looking worried, “What’s wrong?”
Isabella showed her hand, and there was, indeed, blood on her finger. “It seems that the glass had a chip, and I got cut.”
“The lady is delicate. Seth, quickly take her to get it treated,” George suggested. Seth nodded in agreement and guided Isabella
out.
Isabella gripped his hand tightly. Upon sensing the stickiness in his palm, her heart almost leaped into her throat.
Only when they exited the hall did she release a small sigh of relief.
Upon reaching the restroom, Isabella disregarded everything else and promptly ushered
Seth into a small cubicle in the men’s restroom.

Once the door closed, she let out a heavy sigh of relief.
Seth leaned against the door, even managing to chuckle. “Are you genuinely this concerned?”
Isabella calmed down and looked up. “Aren’t you afraid?”
If they had been discovered just now, George would have called a doctor on the spot, and Seth’s wound might have been
exposed.
Even if no one else knew, if the Stones Family found out, it would be leverage against him.
Seth replied nonchalantly, “Don’t I have you?”
His tone was casual, sounding like a joke.
Isabella rolled her eyes. After taking a breath, she quickly rummaged through her small bag.
Seth’s gaze shifted down to her hand. “How did you do it?”
Isabella replied, “It’s a cut from slicing fruit earlier. I picked off the scab and squeezed out the blood.”
The wine had a light color, and I couldn’t hide the two drops of blood on the floor. In order to ensure safety, she quickly came up
with this solution.
Even if the cleaning staff discovered the blood on the floor, they would assume it belonged to her.
As Seth observed her swift movements, he remained silent with his lips pressed together. Inside Isabella’s small bag, there were
actually two rolls of gauze and a plastic bag containing two pills.
