I Quit, Mr. Shaffer by Isabella Symons

Chapter 55

After they came into the lounge, Isabella remembered something, and she

looked at Seth. “You can’t leave that place now, Mr. Shaffer.” If Mr. Gosling

wakes up, the first impression would work in our favor. We can’t let someone

else take that chance away.

Seth sat down and massaged his forehead. He quietly said, “He’s not an idiot.

You think waiting for him for hours would tip anything in their favor?”

Isabella couldn’t argue. Things were getting a little icy, but Nicolas came in

with the doctor in time, and Isabella heaved a sigh of relief.

The doctor looked at Isabella’s ankle, and he clicked his tongue. “Why’d you

drag it out for so long? This is serious.”

Isabella smiled and lied, “I had something urgent.”

And then Seth gave her a look.

“Nothing’s more important than your health. Can’t do anything without good

health.” The doctor sighed and wrote down a prescription, then he told

Nicolas to get the meds.

Seth was still seated. Curtly, he asked, “Complications?”

The doctor looked at him and politely said, “Won’t leave any complications,

but if left untreated, she’ll be susceptible to more sprains. It’ll end up being a

big problem if she sprains her ankle too much.”

Seth pursed his lips, and then he looked at Isabella’s ankle.

Isabella’s heart thumped furiously. She hoped the doctor would make an

ankle sprain sound terminal. That’d give her more leeway when she wanted

to ask for a favor from Seth.

Once the doctor was gone, Seth asked, “How’d you find Shawn?”
