Leave Me Alone, Mr Shaffer by Diana Tenny

Chapter 41

The couch was cold. Isabella was curled up all night, crying silently.

Eventually, her head was woozy. Going all day without eating eventually had

her stomach screaming in the middle of the night. It felt like a hand had

seized her pain receptors, and it would squeeze them from time to time.

Isabella was too scared to move, just in case she would disturb Seth. She

couldn’t do anything now. If she wanted medicine, she had to leave the room,

and that would mean she might run into Keller. She was in a predicament,

and she had to endure the pain or else.

Without the meds, the pain was ravaging her body, keeping her awake. Even

if she were to feel tired, the pain would take over her head a while later. The

torment that was coming at her made her think she would die. Fortunately,

Seth didn’t do anything after that, or she might actually drop dead right in

front of him.

The light of dawn shone into the room. Isabella narrowed her eyes, and tears

fell forth from her dry eyes. She laughed at herself. Man, I’m strong. I can’t

believe I survived that. She closed her eyes to let herself feel better. Just

when she was struggling to get up, the lock rustled.

Someone slowly opened the door, and they carefully came in. The light of

dawn shone on the guest, and Isabella saw who it was. Selena.

Selena whirled and noticed Isabella on the couch. She smiled sheepishly. “I
