Chapter 251 Heâs Just A Drama King Isabella hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to say.
âMr. Shaffer, Iâ¦â
She watched as Seth, with a cold expression, walked past her without uttering a word.
She was taken aback. Normally, he would have at least had someone kick her out. She blinked, her mind filled with mixed emotions. She glanced at his retreating figure, recalling the image she had just captured.
Although his face remained expressionless, his bloodshot eyes and flushed cheeks.
were hard to miss.
Corey was still standing nearby, calling Seth affectionately and gesturing for him to come in.
09:55 Fri. Jan 19 7352 Chapter 251 Heâs Just A Drama King Isabella felt that something was off about this kid. He had dared to pull Seth into the water earlier, and now, he was offering him alcohol without considering his health. He didnât seem like a friend at all.
As she pondered this, Natasha stormed in from outside, followed by a joking Dariel.
âWhatâs all the fuss about? Itâs not like we havenâtâ¦â He stopped mid-sentence when he noticed Isabella standing at the door. Then, he patted Natasha on the waist and said, âCome find me.
Natasha rolled her eyes in annoyance and pulled Isabella aside to talk. âI knew it.
wouldnât be good when he brought me here. Itâs full of troublemakers, so annoying.â
Isabella was equally annoyed. At that moment, she couldnât solve other peopleâs problems. She held her drink, absentmindedly taking sips, but her gaze remained fixed on Seth through the mirror on the side.
Suddenly, a smiling face appeared in the mirror, catching her sneaky glances. She
1.
Chapter 251 Heâs Just A Drama King frowned and quickly averted her gaze, her face displaying an unnatural expression.
Natasha noticed her odd behavior and asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
Isabella used her glass to cover her face and replied, âWhatâs the deal with Corey?â
âHeâs Patrickâs younger brother.â Natasha glanced in Coreyâs direction and lowered her voice. âBut theyâre not blood-related.â
Isabella was surprised. âWhat?â
Natasha lifted her glass, covering her mouth as she spoke, âHeâs an illegitimate child.â
Isabella couldnât help but look in Coreyâs direction and took a glance before withdrawing her gaze. âPatrick and Seth are close. How can Seth get along with his half-brother?â
Natasha clicked her tongue. âI heard he was taken back to the Comptons when he was Chapter 251 Heâs Just A Drama King young. The two brothers get along quite well.
$73%8 Isabella was skeptical. In wealthy families, even blood brothers who grew up together might turn against each other, let alone half-brothers. She caught a glimpse in the mirror of Corey toasting Seth again while Seth raised his glass to clink with his but only took a sip.
Huh. I thought you werenât afraid of death. If youâre so brave, why donât you finish it in one go? As she pondered this, a seductive woman walked onto the dance floor, stepping into the center. The room instantly fell silent.
âItâs supposed to be a masquerade, but itâs just a show for Corey.â Natasha scoffed, casually saying, âThey have everyone wear masks, move around in the dark, and when the lights come on, they find their dance partner. Isnât it just to make it easier for Corey to find his Cinderella?â
Isabella frowned, subconsciously smoothing her hair. She had just washed it using the Chapter 251 Heâs Just A Drama King hotelâs shampoo, which was different from the one she used yesterday. âEven if he finds her, heâll get bored after a few months.â Natasha snorted disdainfully. âHeâs in his early twenties, good-looking, and quite the playboy.â
Isabella licked her lips and asked, âCanât we leave?â
âLook behind you.â
She turned her head, only to realize the door had been closed without her noticing.
It was almost 5 p.m., and the red curtains of the French windows were drawn, casting the hall into darkness. The huge crystal chandelier on the ceiling emitted dazzling light as waiters brought in bottle after bottle of expensive wine, distributing exquisite masks.
The masks only covered the upper half of the face and would be meaningless if the Nights werenât turned off.
09:56 FI, Jan Chapter 251 Heâs Just A Drama King Isabella didnât immediately put on her mask as she was still fixated on Sethâs direction.
He sat alone at a table, and no one dared to approach him. Occasionally, Leonard and a few others would go up to exchange a few words, creating their own world and excluding outsiders.
Knowing Seth as well as she did, Isabella was almost certain he had a fever but stubbornly refused to admit it. âNatasha, are the doctors still here?â she asked casually.
Natasha, wearing her mask, leisurely sipped her drink. âWhatâs the point? Seth, the drama king, wonât let anyone examine him.â
Isabella was speechless. Drama king, how appropriate.
She held the mask in her hand, an idea flashed in her mind. Just as she was about to stand up, all the crystal lights on the ceiling suddenly went out. As darkness engulfed the room, Natasha muttered a curse.
Chapter 251 Heâs Just A Drama King The hostâs voice, pretending to be eerie, announced the time, followed by haunting music that filled the room. âLet the games⦠begin!â
