Leave Me Alone Mr Shaffer Novel

Chapter 268 Argument In Peaceful Times 

Isabella got into the car with Corey. As she left, Caitlin sarcastically reminded her of something, but Isabella ignored her without changing her expression.

Once inside the car, Corey leaned over to help Isabella fasten her seatbelt.

Isabella was surprised. Still in a daze, she heard him say, “Caitlin always seems to have a different attitude when her boyfriend is not around. Don’t take it personally.”

Isabella responded with an ‘Oh’ and quietly replied, “I don’t mind.”

Corey raised an eyebrow, a slight smile forming at the corner of his mouth. “It doesn’t matter if you do. After all, she’s not my actual sister. It doesn’t affect your opinion of me.”

She found his words strange, but she simply returned a smile and said nothing more.

“Where are we going?” he asked.

She hesitated for a moment. “To Oxview Street. I need to stop by the pharmac then I can walk back on my own.”

He nodded, casually remarking, “Oxview Street is where both Harmony Residence and Cletford Mansion are located.”

He glanced at the rearview mirror. As the neon lights reflected in his eyes, he continued, “Seth seems to be living in Harmony Residence recently.”

Isabella opened her mouth, struggling to speak. “I rented a place in Cletford Mansion.”

“I see.”

Corey’s tone was ambiguous, his gaze sweeping over Isabella’s clean face in the mirror.

He couldn’t help but wind down the window, resting his arm on the edge and driving with one hand.

If Isabella wasn’t so nervous, she might have admired the young man’s was completely different from Seth and his group.

When Corey was quiet, he seemed particularly harmless, like a good boy, even cause one to question their previous judgments for being so guarded against him.

Isabella glanced at him and immediately began to question herself.

When they arrived at Oxview Street, Corey didn’t ask any more questions and simply parked the car on the side of the road.
