Resurrecting the Genius Within (Calypso Rain) novel Chapter 111

Resurrecting the Genius Within 

Chapter 111 She Would Never Forgive 

James could only assume that the two months Layla had spent solving the math problem on the forum had drained her and that she needed rest. 

Her offer to solve this problem dispelled his doubts. He nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll give it to you later.” 

After lunch, Isabelle left the cafeteria. 

“Isabelle,” Layla called out to her. She had been waiting for her for a long time. 

Isabelle ignored her sister and walked straight past her. 

Layla followed her persistently and asked, “Isabelle, why didn’t you help me earlier? I’m your sister.” 

Her eyes were still red, and her voice choked with sobs. Gone were the previous harshness and dominance towards Isabelle, replaced by a soft and vulnerable demeanour. 

She didn’t dare blame her, but she wore a pitiful look on her face. 

“Why should I help you? When others bullied me in high school, you always ran away as fast as you could,” Isabelle said. 

She continued to walk away. 

Layla followed her and apologised, “Isabelle, I’m sorry. I know I was wrong. I was too scared to help you. People say all siblings fight. But no matter what, our blood binds us as a family. 

Isabelle was capable now; even the mayor of Norward had to treat her respectfully and address her as Ms. Jenkins. Layla needed Isabelle’s protection at Taragon University, even if it meant using her against Bella. 

She also needed Isabelle to help her with the math problem. James had suspicions about her. She would face exposure if she didn’t take immediate action. 

“I was immature back then. I know I was wrong. I’ll make it up to you. Please forgive me. Let’s be good with each other from now on.” 

Layla cried pityfully, tears streaming down her face. She looked genuinely remorseful. 

Her appearance made it easy to express sympathy for her. 

Isabelle stopped and looked at Layla’s tear–streaked face. She grabbed Layla’s hand, which was clutching her clothes, and slowly tightened her grip. 

She harshly flung her hand away in Layla’s hopeful and joyous gaze, making her stumble. 

Layla decided to play the weak card to the fullest. She deliberately lost her balance and fell to the ground with tears in her eyes, hoping to make Isabelle take pity on her. 

“Forgive you? Aren’t you shameless to ask me for forgiveness?” Isabelle said. 

She was expressionless as she squatted down, saying, “Do you need me to remind you how you bullied me all these years?”

Chapter 111 She Would Never Forgive 

Layla flinched. She covered her head with her arms, fearing Isabelle would hit her. 

Isabelle sneered. 

Since Isabelle had no intention of hitting her, Layla slowly lowered her arms and said, “Isabelle, I’m so 

sorry.” 

“Don’t call me sister. Ethan is my only sibling.” Isabelle said coldly. 

Then, she leaned close to Layla’s ear and warned eerily, “If you dare to try anything against me again, I’ll snap your neck.” 

Layla shuddered in fear. 

By the time she recovered, Isabelle had walked away for a distance. 

Watching Isabelle’s retreating figure, Layla’s tears stopped almost instantly. 

She balled her fist, and her eyes filled with growing hatred. 

That evening, Isabelle took the night off from self–study. After finishing her class at five, she left the campus. 

She took a cab to Maven Apothecary, handed Mr. Garth two new prescriptions, and bought the new medicine for Ethan. 

Mr. Garth was very interested in her prescriptions, but Isabelle hadn’t been willing to share details tast time, so he held back to ask for the details. 

Today, Isabelle was in a good mood; therefore, she took the initiative to discuss the prescriptions and answered his questions. Mr. Garth was delighted. He invited her into the tea room and served her tea. 

Eventually, he even pulled out a notebook, taking notes like an eager student. “Oh my! Combining these herbs has such an effect!” 

He exclaimed as he took notes, as if he had discovered some treasure. He wished he could have met 

Isabelle sooner. 

“To think that at such a young age, Ms. Jenkins’s understanding and insight into alternative medicine surpass mine,” Mr. Garth said, completely impressed by Isabelle’s knowledge. 

Those simple words came from her alone; she had completely won over Mr. Garth, who marvelled at her ability. 

Finally, the field of alternative medicine has some fresh blood. 

“Ms. Jenkins, are you studying medical school at Taragon University?” 

“Computer science.” 

“What? Computer science?” Mr. Garth was taken aback.
