I Quit, Mr. Shaffer by Isabella Symons

Chapter 156

Isabella had a restless sleep for a few hours and vaguely sensed someone

opening the door to her room. She rolled over, ignored it, and continued

sleeping.

It wasn’t until 6.00AM when her phone alarm went off as usual that she

rubbed her eyes vigorously several times to confirm that it was indeed real.

She tentatively called out, but the man lying there didn’t move at all.

food container on the bedside table.

Was it takeout?

Isabella sniffed the air, and her eyes lit up as she recognized the aroma she

had been craving.

She was excited yet confused. She wondered why it took him all night to buy

a bowl of pasta.

Seth was lying next to her. If she moved too much, she would wake him up,
