The man accidentally spilled scalding hot soup on Seth’s back, intending to harm
Isabella. However, it ended up splashing on Seth instead.
Seth, who was only wearing a thin shirt, felt the burning soup soak through his clothes
and make direct contact with his skin.
Isabella felt a surge of panic. Without hesitation, she rushed to unbutton Seth’s shirt
while shouting, “Take him to the hospital!”
Quick as lightning, Jordan took Seth from Isabella and swiftly carried him to the car.
Isabella jogged to keep up, but her mind seemed to shut down in an instant.
Jordan drove carefully, making sure not to touch Seth’s burnt skin, while Isabella held
onto him.
Seth’s face turned pale, and sweat quickly covered his forehead, but he didn’t even
acknowledge Isabella or make a sound.

She could faintly hear a sound coming from him when he had shielded her from the
scalding soup during the incident.
Jordan brought them to a private hospital, registered for emergency treatment, and
even called the director.
Within 20 minutes, dermatologists on duty arrived, accompanied by the director.

Unable to hold back, she shouted and questioned, “Aren’t you doctors? Why can’t you
relieve his pain first? Must you gather for a discussion over such a minor issue?!”
Her voice was so loud and commanding that even the hospital director was startled.
Moreover, Jordan, who wore a stern expression, stood beside them, causing the
doctors to fall silent instantly.
Seth, bare-chested and in pain, took a deep breath and noticed Isabella’s fierce
expression.

He wanted to laugh because he realized that his years of exclusive care for her were
not in vain. Thankfully, she still knows to be grateful..
“Mr. Shaffer, do you mind having scars?” the director asked bravely.

Seth hid his smile and looked up at him sternly. “Do I look like someone who cares
about such details?”
Feeling a chill down his spine, the director looked somewhat awkward as he quickly

instructed the doctors, “Puncture the blister first. Be quick.”
Having received instructions from their leader, the doctors rushed out to prepare their
tools.
Soon, only Jordan and Isabella remained in the room.
Isabella stood at a distance, still hesitant to approach Seth. She remembered the
moment when her feet felt glued to the ground as the boiling soup splashed towards
them. She couldn’t bring herself to take another step into the room, and her earlier
shout had drained all her energy.
Outside, hurried footsteps could be heard, and the atmosphere was tense, in stark
contrast to the calm inside the room. Seth looked up, squinting at Isabella. “What are
you standing there for?”
Isabella clenched her teeth, unable to utter a sound.
Seth frowned and grew impatient. Then, he turned to Jordan and instructed, “Get her
out. Her presence annoys me.”

Jordan’s lips twitched as he looked at Isabella. “Miss Symons, why don’t you go out
first?”
“My feet are numb,” Isabella replied.
“Carry her out,” Seth ordered.
Jordan reluctantly agreed, “Sure.”
Isabella stood by the door, watching Jordan approach her. She blinked, and before she
could react, Jordan had picked her up.
She was so stiff that it appeared as if Jordan was carrying her out.
In the room, Seth felt less annoyed when he couldn’t see her, but the pain in his back
became even more unbearable.
Meanwhile, Jordan carried Isabella out and closed the door when he went back in.
The room grew quieter with one less person, but the atmosphere was different.

Seth frowned and looked outside, but the next moment, his eyes widened.
Jordan was surprised to see this, so he turned to follow Seth’s gaze.
Standing outside, Isabella resembled a gecko as she stubbornly pressed her face
against the window, peering inside.
Seth let out a sigh. “Close the curtains!”

Jordan felt it would be inappropriate to laugh at this moment, so he held it back, walked
to the window, and swiftly pulled the curtains shut.
