Chapter 316: Chapter 328: Life and Death Hang in the Balance (6)
Isabel Smith’s words were somewhat slurred, and Elijah Smith didn’t hear them clearly. He grimaced in pain and looked at Isabel Smith with a particularly bad attitude, letting out a grumpy "Hmm?"
However, Isabel Smith didn’t continue talking, but shakily got up from Elijah Smith’s arm and fell back onto the passenger seat, quieting down.
Elijah Smith lifted his hand and rubbed the spot where Isabel Smith had bitten him, sniffingly, started the car again, and continued driving to where Isabel Smith lived.
On the rest of the trip, Isabel Smith didn’t make any more trouble. She just sat motionlessly in the passenger seat, her eyes wide and blank.
Elijah Smith parked the car steadily in the parking lot under Isabel Smith’s Apartment, then got out of the car, circled to Isabel Smith’s side, and carried her out of the car.
"Which Building do you stay?" Elijah Smith asked, carrying Isabel Smith towards the elevator.
"Eighteenth Building." Isabel appeared drained from the turmoil in the car, her voice weak as she responded to Elijah Smith.
Elijah Smith, with a particularly unhappy expression, huffed and then pressed the Elevator button. As the Elevator came down, he went in with Isabel Smith in his arms.
Elijah Smith pressed "18", the Elevator door slowly closed and then slowly opened. Then Elijah Smith saw Percy Stanton and a female step in.
Percy Stanton had just received a phone call from Ella Adams tonight, she’d suggested a meet-up to discuss her graduation thesis. The two had headed to a private bar in Bellshire.
After he’d helped Ella Adams with her thesis, it was only 11 PM. Ella Adams recalled the two books she’d left at Percy Stanton’s Homestead that hadn’t been returned to the library, so she followed Percy Stanton home.
Ella Adams was the first to enter the elevator. She didn’t know Elijah Smith, and since Isabel Smith had buried her head in Elijah Smith’s shoulder, she thought the pair were just strangers living in the same building. She gave a small nod and stood aside.
Percy Stanton followed closely behind and froze for a moment when he saw Elijah Smith.
Elijah Smith didn’t expect to run into someone he knew while taking Isabel Smith home in the Elevator. He’s always had a bit of rebellious nature and a strong temper as a Young Master, so he didn’t necessarily greet others unless greeted first. But since Percy Stanton was the one who saved Isabel Smith’s life, Elijah Smith was grateful and he smiled at Percy Stanton, grinning and saying, "Mr. Stanton, what a coincidence."
Percy Stanton gave a nod, his gaze falling on the person in Elijah Smith’s arms. Although he couldn’t see Isabel Smith’s face, Just by looking at her figure, he recognized her, frowning as he asked in a bland voice, "What happened to her?"
Before Elijah Smith could answer Percy Stanton’s question, Isabel Smith twisted her head and a strong scent of alcohol wafted over.
Percy Stanton’s brow furrowed even more, his tone noticeably cooler, "She just got discharged, who let her drink?"
Although Percy Stanton didn’t intentionally get angry, a heavy aura radiated from him, making Elijah Smith hold his breath.
However, Isabel Smith furrowed her brows, struggled out of Elijah Smith’s arms, staggered to Percy Stanton’s side, with no fear of Percy Stanton whatsoever. She opened her mouth, full of alcohol, and said, "Percy Stanton, Elijah Smith is my younger brother, who are you to be mean to him! I drank because I wanted to, what can you do to me?"
Having said that, Isabel Smith lifted her chin high at Percy Stanton.
Once Isabel Smith spoke, Percy Stanton smelled the pungent scent of alcohol, his face darkened and he stared at Isabel Smith speechless from anger.
He had only been away from her for a mere few hours on the day of her discharge from the hospital. How did she turn into this drunk mess in such a short time!
The more Percy Stanton thought about it, the more the fire in his belly grew, eventually causing his teeth to hurt. He starred at Isabel Smith furious and snapped, "Isabel Smith, are you trying to throw your life away?"
