I Quit Mr. Shaffer ( Isabella Symons ) Chapter 126
Chapter 126
Christopher, a true gentleman, opened the door for Isabella without any hint
of arrogance, despite being from a wealthy family.
Outside the venue, many women looked at Isabella with envy, but she paid
them no mind, remaining cautious around Christopher.
Having only met him once before, and it not being a pleasant encounter,
Isabella couldn’t understand why he was being kind to her.
There must be a reason for this strange behavior. I wonder what he’s thinking.
As she pondered, a black Porsche screeched to a halt outside the venue,
blocking the path in front of Isabella and Christopher.
Gordon, dressed in sportswear, stepped out of the car with an unfriendly
expression. “Why didn’t you call me?”
Isabella, who wanted to keep her distance from Christopher, felt relieved at
the sight of Gordon. She never expected him to appear so approachable.

She walked over, lowered herself, and said playfully, “I was waiting for you to
call me. How can you blame me? You didn’t call either.”
Gordon was momentarily stunned and slow to react. He looked up and
caught Isabella’s fleeting wink.

Glancing at Christopher, he quickly understood the situation. He reached out
and pulled Isabella closer.
“So, you didn’t call me and asked someone else to give you a ride to work?”
Isabella was left speechless. She only wanted Gordon to help her out, but she
didn’t expect him to say something so ambiguous, putting their relationship
in an uncertain position.
“Don’t blame her. I was the one who offered to drive her.” Christopher walked
over with a smile, hands in his pockets, facing Gordon. “Mr. Dunkstein, we can
consider ourselves friends. Show me some respect.”
Gordon gave him a disdainful look. “You want me to respect you when you’re
interested in my woman?”

Isabella gasped at his words. Suddenly, she found this guy far from adorable.
If she had something in her hands, she would have shut his mouth with it.
With many people around and Gordon speaking loudly, countless onlookers
overheard. They started whispering and pointing at Isabella.
She felt a tingling sensation on her scalp and regretted not leaving earlier in
the morning. She never expected these two. troublemakers to cross paths.
“My woman?” Christopher chuckled mysteriously. Raising an eyebrow, he
teasingly looked at Isabella. “Miss Symons, didn’t you say you were single just
now?”
His deliberate words made it seem like Isabella intentionally hid the fact that
she had a boyfriend, playing both sides.
Isabella pressed her lips together, feeling trapped. If she denied being
Gordon’s girlfriend, she would embarrass him. But not explaining would make
her seem like someone playing both sides.
Although they were still outside the venue, there were many people around. If

this continued, her reputation in the industry would be tarnished.

“She’s not my girlfriend yet,” Gordon suddenly spoke, a bit impatient, as he
looked at Christopher. “But she will be in the future. Any woman I set my eyes
on can’t escape.”
Isabella was somewhat surprised that he clarified.
The surrounding people showed disappointment at his words, and the
women revealed envy again, wishing they could replace Isabella and be
fought over by these two men.
Christopher stood opposite, shrugging. “Since she’s not your girlfriend,
anyone has the right to pursue her.”
Gordon sneered. “As if your pursuit would work.” With that, he reached out
and put his arm around Isabella’s shoulder, lifting his chin. “She even turned
down Seth.”
Isabella was once again at a loss for words.

At first, she found Gordon somewhat adorable, but he had successfully dug a
hole for her.
Whispers spread around, and those who were about to enter the venue
deliberately stopped to watch the drama unfold.
Isabella’s mind was buzzing. In a spot not visible to others, she nudged
Gordon, hoping he would quickly stop talking.
“Oh?” Christopher looked surprised, turning to Isabella. “Miss Symons, it seems
you have quite a few admirers.”
Isabella’s mouth twitched. “Mr. Dunkstein is just joking. Don’t take him
seriously.”
Gordon clicked his tongue. “Who’s joking with… Mm…”
Before he could finish, Isabella ruthlessly pinched his waist.
Ouch!
With a smile, Isabella nodded at Christopher, then blinked at Gordon. “Mr.
Dunkstein, I think we should go inside first.”
Gordon reluctantly straightened up, his expression resentful. He then turned
to glare at Christopher. However, when he spoke to Isabella, his tone
softened. “We’ll do as you say. Let’s go in.”
There were many people around, and quite a few knew Gordon. They
privately discussed how remarkable it was for Isabella to make the rich kid
humble himself like this.
