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!"

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.
