I Quit, Mr. Shaffer by Isabella Symons

Chapter 243

In the dimly lit room, a young man emerged from the bathroom, his upper body bare. He

held a tall glass from the bar and sat on the couch in front of the floor-to-ceiling

windows.

The night view of Deal Bay was stunningly beautiful. Without the noise of the outside

world, it appeared serene and mysterious.

The young man squinted in satisfaction, answered the phone, and listened to the

person on the other end for a moment. A slight smile formed at the corners of his

mouth.

“So, it was Seth reprimanding his girlfriend. I thought the Comptons had fallen. Dariel is

coming to visit tomorrow?” the person on the other end of the line asked.

Dariel leaned against Seth’s bed, his eyes filled with amusement. He spoke to the

person on the other end of the line. “Your dear Seth just played the hero and saved the

beauty. Now he’s in the hospital.”

Seth closed his eyes, annoyed by this unexpected visitor who wouldn’t let him rest in

the middle of the night.

Dariel chuckled, joking with Corey, and quickly made plans to go out to sea the next

day.

After ending the call, he sat behind Seth, gazing at the wound on his back, and sighed

dramatically. “Such a severe injury, and yet you receive no sympathy. That woman is

heartless. Letting her give you a cold shower is too lenient.”

Seth opened his eyes. “What did you do?”

Dariel raised an eyebrow. “Nothing much. She made you take a cold shower last time,

so I returned the favor for you.”

Seth snorted. “Are you broke or something?”

Dariel replied, “I would do anything for my dear friend, regardless of whether I’m busy or

not.”
