Chapter 408 Falling Into The Water
Chapter 408
Isabella was taken aback when she ran into Ariana unexpectedly. Since she couldn’t
find a hairdryer, she decided to go out and search for one.
“I’ll stay here and take care of Mr. Shaffer,” Ariana offered.
Ariana’s eyes showed a hint of concern. Just as she was about to say something, a
door opened behind her.
Seth stepped out, and he frowned upon seeing Isabella with wet hair. “What happened
to your hair?” he asked.
Isabella pouted. “I couldn’t find a hairdryer.”

Ariana had a feeling that there was something going on between them, but she never
expected it to be this complicated.
With her fists clenched, she stopped paying attention to their conversation and walked.
downstairs with determination.
Once she left, Isabella appeared with a blow dryer and hurriedly went back to her room.
Not easily fooled, she sensed Ariana’s thoughts. Perhaps she saw the previous sce

There was no scheming involved, just an unexpected turn of events.
She quickly dried her hair and lay on the spacious bed, lost in her thoughts. Realizing
that the payment issue was still unresolved, she knew she had to find Seth.
When she went outside, she didn’t see him, so she had to grab a servant and ask.
“Mr. Shaffer seems to have gone to the swimming pool in the backyard,” the servant
replied.
Isabella was shocked. “The swimming pool?”
That was a recipe for disaster. With such severe injuries, if he immersed himself in th
water again, he could end up in the morgue.
She asked for the location of the swimming pool and hurriedly ran to the backyard.

It was nearly eight o’clock at night, and only the dim lights were on.
She ran all the way there and indeed saw the swimming pool, but there was no sign of
Seth.
“Mr. Shaffer?”
There was no response.

Could he have not come? she pondered for a moment. Then, she called out ag
“Seth Shaffer?”
Still, there was no answer, and only the silent night greeted her.
Perhaps he hasn’t arrived, she thought.
On second thought, Seth wasn’t that foolish.

She stood by the pool for a while and was about to turn around and leave.
Suddenly, something leaped out of the bushes and struck her legs.
Splash!
She fell heavily into the water.
Ah!
Water forcefully rushed into her mouth and nose; all she could see was the vast blue
water.
“Help! Help!”
How unfortunate. She was simply looking for someone, and now she was drowning.

“The deep end is only one and a half meters. You can stand up!” A man’s voice came
from the shore.
Isabella struggled, and then, her foot seemed to touch the bottom of the pool.
She paused, stopped moving, and stood up!
Meow!
Seth was standing by the pool, holding a cat and looking at her as if she were foolish.
Isabella stood in the pool, feeling utterly embarrassed. She wiped her face and clear
her throat. “I... didn’t know.”
He raised an eyebrow. “What are you doing out here?”

She wanted to say, I intended to stop you from doing something foolish.
Then, her gaze shifted to the cat in his hand.
“Are you looking for it?”
The black cat was likely the culprit that bumped into her just now.
“She brought it here and forgot to take it when she left,” he explained, looking annoyed.
Isabella hesitated. “Is it hers?”
Seth didn’t deny it. He turned around and threw the cat onto a nearby chair.
The black cat looked eerie. It hissed at him and arched its back in defiance. However,
after making eye contact with him for two seconds
it licked its paw and lay down on
the chair submissively.

Isabella sneered and thought, What a cowardly cat!
She sighed and slowly approached the edge of the pool.

Seth stood above her, and suddenly, he kindly squatted down and offered his hand to
her.
Without hesitation, she reached out her hand.
With his assistance, she managed to climb halfway up.
Unexpectedly, he released his grip.
“Oh!” she exclaimed.
There was another splash, accompanied by Seth’s soft laughter.

D*mn it! she cursed under her breath.
