Leave Me Alone Mr Shaffer Novel

Seth and Isabella sat before plates of pasta topped with an egg. Seth eyed his plate, showing a hint of surprise.

It actually looks appetizing.

Isabella felt a hint of pride, thinking she could finally overcome her reputation as a

“kitchen disaster.”

He picked up his fork and speared a few strands of pasta, tasting them thoughtfully.

Meanwhile, Isabella did not start eating and covertly observed Seth instead.

The moment the pasta hit his taste buds, a subtle frown creased his forehead.

A wave of worry washed over her, and she tentatively asked, “What’s wrong?”

Visibly struggling to swallow the mouthful, he finally put down his fork. “Are you sure this pasta is cooked?”

Isabella recalled the process of cooking the pasta, feeling a twinge of guilt. She pick up a strand of pasta and broke it open.

The inside was unmistakably raw.

With an awkward chuckle, she reassured Seth. “Give me a moment.”

She then dashed to the kitchen.

He watched as Isabella returned with two small pot lids-one for her plate and one for his.

“Don’t worry. It’ll cook through with a bit of braising.”

Seth could only stare, thinking, This is pasta, not instant noodles!
