Chapter 466

Isabella felt guilty. Her relationship with Seth had been unclear before, and she worried that if they stayed together under the same roof, even for just one night, Victoria would see through it.

“Do you not have any other houses?” Isabella asked.

“Why would I buy so many houses in Bleaktown for no reason?” Seth replied.

Isabella considered suggesting that he stay in a hotel, but then she thought it would be inappropriate since the house belonged to Seth.

“Then I’ll take my mother back to our old house.”

“Your old house hasn’t been visited for years. It might have been taken over by rats,”

Seth spoke without any courtesy.

Isabella was speechless.

“I’ll stay in the backyard, away from your mother,” Seth offered, taking a step back.

Isabella breathed a sigh of relief. “Does the house have two entrances?”

Seth responded indifferently.

With nothing more to say, Isabella forcefully pulled her arm away.

“I’ll go settle my mother first.”

“Your mother is fine now. You don’t need to follow her everywhere.”

He took the opportunity to grab her again, then forcefully pulled her into the car.

“Drive.”

Isabella was startled. She sat up straight and quickly called Victoria in the car ahead, telling her not to be afraid.

Seeing her nervousness, Seth snorted lightly, but his complexion eased.
