Chapter 199
Upon returning to the room, Seth appeared serious and spoke sternly, “I
promised not to touch you, but if you engage in any inappropriate behavior
to seduce me, I can’t guarantee that I will keep my promise.” He paused,
looking at the shocked Isabella. “If anything happens, it will be your
responsibility.”
Huh?
“Do you understand?” Seth asked.
Isabella’s lips twitched. “Yes.”

totaled. Since she hadn’t completed the necessary paperwork at the time, it
was unlikely that the insurance company would cover the damages. “Is this
for me?”
“Yes.”
Isabella accepted the key, surprised. She couldn’t get used to how human
