Chapter 179

Seth’s words may have sounded like a joke, but it was clear to everyone that

he was provoking Gordon.

As expected, Gordon immediately halted his steps.

As Seth descended the stairs, the crowd instinctively made way for him.

Although they were in the Dunkstein Residence, it felt as if they were in the

Shaffers’ territory.

After adjusting his cuffs, Seth casually twisted the ring on his finger and

approached the shattered champagne glass.

Isabella stood behind Gordon, her gaze fixed on Seth’s every move. She even

slowed her breathing as she carefully observed him. What was his intention?

With one hand in his pocket, Seth calmly studied Rachel’s frightened

expression. “Miss Logan, which do you find more challenging-apologizing or

causing harm to others?”

Rachel seemed dazed, unable to comprehend why this distinguished man

Seth, offering an apologetic smile. “Mr. Shaffer, why don’t we let the

paramedics take the injured away? Saving a life is more important, isn’t it?”

Seth nodded, seemingly unaffected by the situation. “Sure. You can do

whatever you want.”

This left the crowd puzzled, unable to comprehend Seth’s actions. Initially, it

seemed like he wanted to defend Isabella, but now he appeared indifferent
