Ten minutes later, Isabella sat in the passenger seat of Coreyâs car with a sullen face,
her mind in complete disarray, unsure of how she had ended up in this situation.
Leonardâs seafood restaurant was a place she dreaded, as she was almost certain to
run into Seth there.
Lately, she had managed to maintain a normal superior-subordinate relationship
without seeing him. It would be a problem to even greet him if they met privately.
She was annoyed, and Corey, sitting next to her, kept affectionately calling her âBellaâ as
if he were her younger brother.
Upon arriving at the restaurant, Corey parked the car.
Isabella followed him with heavy footsteps.

Corey wore a smile on his face, seemingly oblivious to her discomfort, and walked
ahead on his own.
Just as they reached the staircase, two groups of people came toward them.
康
Isabella was lost in thought when she heard a gasp. She looked up and almost had a
heart attack on the spot.
Leonard was leading Simon and Dariel, apparently having just finished ordering their
fish, followed by several waiters.
Gordon and Tyrone were with Freya and Lyra, clearly having just arrived.
The three groups collided, and the scene froze for a moment.
Isabella was on the verge of a breakdown, screaming inwardly.

Freya had just been consoled by Lyra. Seeing Isabella and Corey together, she burst into
tears again, trembling as she accused, âCorey, didnât you say you didnât likeâ¦â
Corey, with one hand in his pocket, turned to Isabella and winked. Then he answered,
âPlease donât misunderstand this. Leonard invited us to dinner, and I just brought Bella,
whoâs like my sister, along.â
Isabella forced a laugh. âYes, Iâm here to freeload on Mr. Leonardâs meal.â
âYou guys look chummy.â Leonardâs gaze swept over them, and then he exchanged a
strange look with Dariel. âWhy donât we all go up? We can have a good time together.
My treat.â
Gordon was not pleased and objected. âThereâs no need.â

âSure!â Freya exclaimed.
Everyone else kept quiet.
Freya didnât care, her eyes fixed on Corey. âI like it when thereâs a crowd.â
Everyone understood what she meant and couldnât help but be amused by this girl.
Gordon and his group gritted their teeth, wishing they could break off their friendship
with Freya on the spot.
The three groups were stuck at the staircase, creating an awkward scene. Simon
stepped forward to greet them.
âLetâs go upstairs first.â
âRight.â Corey nodded, smiling at Isabella. âYou must be hungry, right?â

His voice was loud enough for everyone to hear.
Leonard and his group collectively raised their eyebrows, ready for a show.
And Gordon glared at them, ready to challenge the law on the spot.
Isabella kept a poker face, her spirit almost dissipating, not wanting to speak.
Corey seemed oblivious as he walked behind everyone, insisting on walking side by
side with Isabella.
There were only about twenty steps in total. He watched his steps the whole way and
reminded Isabella three times.
Isabella couldnât figure out what this man was up to. She held back her smile and
followed him upstairs. As soon as they reached the second floor, she heard a voice
from inside.

âTry this fried fish. Itâs super delicious.â
Is that Caitlinâs voice?
Isabella reacted instantly and stopped in her tracks.
Corey noticed her strange expression and smiled kindly. âWhatâs wrong, Bella?â
Isabella felt a sharp pain in her temple. Leonard had already pushed open the door to
the private room in front of her.
âMake some space, everyone. Our esteemed guests have arrived.â
âWho?â Caitlin stood up and peered out, first seeing Freya and the others.
She couldnât help but sneer in her heart. Esteemed guests? Pfft!

Just as she was about to sit down, her gaze swept over and landed on Isabella and
Corey, who had just entered the room.
âIsabella?!â
As she spoke, Isabella swallowed, looked up, and met the intense gaze of the man
sitting across from her.
Seth remained silent, merely lifting his eyelids, then shifted his gaze away, as if he
hadnât noticed Isabella.
Isabella breathed a sigh of relief and greeted everyone.
The private room was originally meant for one table, but with nearly ten more people
suddenly joining, it became a bit crowded.
Caitlin complained about the crowdedness, looking displeased.

Leonard responded, âItâs more enjoyable when itâs crowded. It helps foster
relationships.â
He had a few more chairs added. The medium-sized round table was tightly
surrounded. Isabella was seated between Corey on her left and Gordon on her right.
Further to the side was Freya, and directly across from her was Seth.
As soon as she sat down, a suffocating feeling enveloped her.
She kept wiping her sweaty hands under the table, praying for the dinner to end soon.
However, Leonard had arranged a full fish banquet. From fried fish to boiled fish, even
sashimi and eel rice were included. It took a long time just to serve the dishe
The first round of dishes was served.
Before Isabella could pick something for herself, Gordon and Corey reached out and

said in unison, âTry this!â
They added a piece of sashimi and a piece of fried fish to her plate.
âYou like fried food, donât you?â Gordon said.
âSashimi is healthier. Bella, you look like youâve been staying up late. You should eat
less fried food,â Corey interrupted.

Dariel chimed in, âExactly, girls indeed can do things well themselves, but that doesnât
mean they donât deserve to be taken care of by others.â
