I Quit, Mr. Shaffer by Isabella Symons

Chapter 109

The thick-skinned Isabella shrugged. “Selena guided me well.”

“Alright, she’ll continue teaching you tomorrow.” Seth mercifully looked away

as he picked up his knife and said firmly, “Tomorrow, I wish to see cordon

bleu, sole meuniere, lamb with herb stuffing, and hasselback potatoes.”

Isabella had no words. None whatsoever. Still, she took care to maintain the

standard smile on her face as she took a seat across from Seth. “Mr. Frost,

Selena might not know how to cook those dishes you just mentioned.”

Forget everything else. Just the lamb with herbed stuffing he had mentioned

was a little overboard because it was a dish served at royal dinners.

Seth didn’t even bother lifting his head as he said breezily, “That shouldn’t be

a problem since you’re so talented.”

Isabella was dumbstruck as she started lamenting in her heart, One shouldn’t

do anything against their conscience. Otherwise, retribution will strike at any

time.

“Eat some. You should try a little of your achievement.” Seth’s eyes were filled

with schadenfreude when he noticed that she hadn’t started with her meal.

Unfortunately for Isabella, she was full due to all the rage that was surging

her body. Nevertheless, she picked up her fork and shoveled something in her

mouth despite having no appetite.

The office was incredibly silent. She could only hear the sounds of Seth’s

cutleries lightly touching the plates. The food tasted like ash in her mouth as
