Read Leave Me Alone Mr Shaffer Novel Chapter 16
Chapter 16
Isabella was perched on the edge of the couch, her
head spinning and her body in disarray. She felt like
she was falling apart. A faint, cool scent enveloped
her–Seth’s preferred cologne. It used to be alluring,
but now it was overwhelming.
“Miss Symons, Kate has a quick temper. Since I
offended you today, let me offer you a toast. hope
you can forgive her.” Harold’s tone was gentle as he
reached for a bottle of wine to pour himself a drink.
However, Caitlin interjected angrily, “What are you
apologizing for? It’s not your fault.”

“If it’s not his fault, is it your fault then?” With
Natasha in his arms, Dariel looked at Caitlin and
spoke as though he were joking.
Caitlin opened her mouth to retort but met Seth’s
stern gaze. She shuddered and found herself
unable to speak. In the eyes of her peers, Seth was
like a tyrant from Hell. No one dared to provoke him
unless they were seeking death.
“There’s no need for apologies.” Isabella got up
from the couch and half–squatted in front of the
coffee table before taking the bottle of wine from
Harold’s hand. Her voice was hoarse and
unpleasant to the ears. “It was my fault for standing
in the wrong place and causing Miss Hunter to
misunderstand. I’ll make amends with a drink.”
11:58 Wed, 20 Dec G 150.
The private room fell into complete silence, with
only the sound of Isabella pouring wine.
Caitlin tried to retort but found herself at a loss for
words. “Who asked you-”
Before Caitlin could finish her sentence, Isabella
had already downed a glass of wine.
“Apologies for the disturbance, everyone. I’ll punish
myself with another glass, and let’s put this matter
behind us.” Isabella poured another glass and
drank it as if it were water.
Harold looked conflicted, wanting to intervene,
while Natasha clenched her fists, and Dariel
chuckled softly.

only gave her a glance. It was like he never had
such a lunatic for a secretary.
After two glasses of wine, Isabella felt better and
asked Natasha, “Can I use your room to freshen up?”
Natasha was afraid she might collapse and
wanted to accompany her, but Isabella insisted on going alone.
“Alright, go ahead. Wait for me in the room, and
we’ll leave together,” Natasha said.
Isabella got the access code and left the room.
Just as she closed the door, she overheard Dariel’s
teasing comments.

“Why is she staying with you?”
“Someone was ruthless and kicked Bella out even
after five years of hard work.”
Then, the door closed, muffling Seth’s response.
Isabella leaned against the wall to make her way to
Natasha’s room. As the door shut, a heavy silence
settled, and she sank to the floor, her ears still
ringing from the hurtful words piercing her.
She touched her flushed face, trying to calm the
turmoil within her chest. Then, she clutched a
nearby small table, finding a glass on it. A thought flashed through her mind, and she didn’t hesitate
to throw the glass, its shattering crash echoing sharply in the still room.

Chapter 16 I Hope That B’stard Goes Bankrupt
Isabella gasped for breath, her heart pounding. It
took a while for her to regain her composure. She
gave herself a sharp slap to snap out of it, then
pushed off the wall and stumbled into the
bathroom. Without bothering to undress, she

turned on the shower, the cold water drowning out the ringing in her ears. Yet, the voice inside her
head kept taunting her. Oh, Isabella, you’d better
make something of yourself, even if it costs your life. You have to return this beating, one way or
another.
As her racing heart gradually calmed, a numbing
coldness settled in.
Fed up with self–torment, Isabella started to
undress but remembered she had no clean
clothes. She sighed and, without hesitation, walked

back into the dimly lit room, completely naked. Her
intention was to borrow some of Natasha’s clothes
temporarily.
While searching through the wardrobe, Seth’s face
and indifferent expression flashed in her mind. She
couldn’t help but start to mutter, “The Shaffer
Family is full of lunatics. Why don’t they have any
physical illnesses? They should have some sort of
genetic disease. That b*stard. I hope he goes
bankrupt tomorrow!”

Her curses provided some relief, but she failed to
notice another presence on the nearby couch. The
man deliberately let out a light chuckle, startling
her. She froze, wide–eyed, staring at the dark
wardrobe.

If I go bankrupt, your two apartments will be gone

Isabella gulped and quickly grabbed a piece of
clothing to put on. Turning her head, she saw Seth
sitting on the couch with his legs crossed.
