Chapter 507 His Blind Date Banquet
At eight o’clock, several luxury cars adorned the courtyard of the old Shaffer residence.
Upon Seth’s arrival, someone promptly emerged to greet him.
The private banquet, in essence, was an unspoken agreement between the two families.
Bloom arrived early. Upon spotting Seth, she intercepted him at the door.
“What’s wrong with you? How did you obediently show up
Seth responded, “This is the Shaffer residence.”
Bloom rolled her eyes, saying, “Of course, I know. Do you understand the implications?”
As the two families convened, perhaps after tonight, the marriage could be settled.
While she was on edge, Seth remained surprisingly calm.
Glancing behind her, she whispered, “Do you genuinely like Isabella?”
Seth met her gaze, his thin lips slightly parted.
Before he could speak, Ariana walked in from the garden.
“Seth, you’re late. Everyone has been waiting for you for a long time.”
Seth responded lightly and walked past Bloom to the backyard.
Bloom followed behind, always trying to find an opportunity to speak, but she get a response from Seth.
The garden was arranged for the banquet, with Bloom’s parents and Ariana’s family in attendance. Lara’s mother, Christina, was
also present.
The table was perfectly set to accommodate everyone, and once Seth took his seat, his presence seemed to cast a shadow over
those around him.
Bloom’s father, Max Flowers, expressed immense satisfaction with Seth as his future son-in-law, showering him with endless
praise.
Seth’s surprisingly cooperative attitude throughout the entire event pleased Spencer.
He understood that Seth had always been composed and level-headed, making it impossible for him to lose his composure over
Isabella.
Bloom sat with Ariana, both casting intense glares at Seth, their eyes practically shooting fire.
This b*stard! We have an agreement! Why is he changing his mind?
“Isabella?” Ariana suddenly whispered.
Bloom quickly looked over. “What... what’s wrong?”
“It seems like Isabella has been cyberbullied,” Ariana sighed.
Bloom’s eyes lit up, quickly grabbing the phone and flipping through it. “Isabella is in trouble!”
Ignoring the parents at the table, she shook the phone in front of Seth.
Bloom’s mother, Noreen Sharp, clicked her tongue and quickly snatched the phone. away.
“What’s wrong with you, Bloom?”
Bloom wanted to speak but was fiercely glared at by Noreen.
Noreen originally wanted to put down the phone, but then her eyes caught the word on the screen.
“Oh, Nemotors? Isn’t that a small company just acquired by the Shaffer Group?”
The men at the table were originally focused on Seth. Upon hearing the words, their attention was also drawn over.
Taking out their phones, they quickly read through the situation and got a rough idea of what happened.
The men were not interested in such trivial matters, but Noreen and Ariana’s mother,
Debbie Alonso, loved gossip. After all, it was also a bit of a scandal.
“At least she’s an executive director. How can she act so recklessly?”
“Coming from a humble background, it’s normal for her to seek fame,” Christina pass a dish to Spencer, shooting a sarcastic look
at Seth. “Wasn’t this girl once Seth’s chief secretary?”
Seth took a sip of his wine, not bothering to reply.
The atmosphere became a bit awkward.
Noreen casually remarked, “That’s true. How could our children possibly want to become actors?”
finished speaking, Seth placed his cup on the table.
Max coughed loudly, giving Noreen a fierce glare.
Noreen realized that referring to Erin as an actor was taboo in the Shaffer Far many years.
“I...”
“Alright, stop talking.” Spencer tapped his cane and said, “Let’s try the foods we prepared.”
