Isabel tilted her head back, taking a sip from her drink. After setting it down, she turned to Seff with a serious expression.

"My life isn't about settling for less. And when it comes to something as significant as marriage, I certainly won't settle. If I were to settle for you, it would be irresponsible of me." Seff studied Isabel, his face twisting into a sarcastic smile.

"Then, Boss, why didn't you fall for me?"

Isabel furrowed her brows and rubbed her chin thoughtfully. After a brief pause, she met his gaze again.

"Do you want me to tell you the truth, or would you prefer a lie!"

Seff hesitated, his gaze locked onto her. After a moment, he answered, his voice steady.

"Give me the truth."

He braced himself, waiting for her response, his heart racing with anticipation.

"The truth is..." Isabel paused, choosing her words carefully. "You're just not my type

Her words felt like a sharp blow to Seff's chest. The sting was immediate, and he winced, desperately searching for some comfort.

"Boss, what about the lie?" he asked, his voice tinged with hope.

"Well, the lie is... you're still not my type.

Seff's face dropped, and he dramatically pressed a hand to his heart as if wounded.

"Boss, you've really crushed me," he said, his voice exaggerated.

Isabel shrugged, patting him on the shoulder casually. "It's better to get it over with quickly than drag it out," she said, her tone light as if nothing unusual had happened. Seff stared at her in disbelief before bursting into laughter.

"Ha! Boss, do you know what I like about you?"

Isabel raised an eyebrow, intrigued despite herself.

"I like that you never care about how other people feel. When they're upset, you just keep making jokes, making things worse. You've got this ruthless, carefree attitude that makes you both frustrating and oddly endearing. It's like a dish that's terrible and overpriced, yet you can't help but want to try it. Seff's words, though playful, carried an odd sincerity.

Isabel felt irritation bubble up inside her, a strong urge to punch him.
