Resurrecting the Genius Within (Calypso Rain) novel Chapter 140

Chapter 140 Not Her Strong Suits 

Isabelle knew it.. 

“Isabelle!” Logan was excited to see her. 

He had made an effort to dress up and change his clothes before coming here. 

James, a man of few words and someone who had initially harboured a slight bias against Isabelle, was still figuring out how to greet her. 

Just 

as he was about to say “hello,” he overheard his younger brother questioning their grandfather, “Grandpa, was Mr. Garth here? Is your headache acting up again?” 

Magnus responded, “No, he didn’t. Isabelle did the treatment for me.” 

Logan, caught off guard, exclaimed, “Oh?” 

He wondered, Could she do that? 

At that moment, James noticed the seven or eight shiny needles inserted in his grandfather’s head and then glanced at Isabelle. 

“Isabelle, these are my two grandsons whom I told you about, Magnus introduced them warmly. 

Only a few professors at Taragon University, as well as Danny and Bella knew that these two were Magnus’s grandsons. 

Normally, the brothers addressed the principal as everyone else did at school, per Magnus’s request. 

Both the Burtons and Lennons held prestigious positions in Taragon City, 

Magnus, whether in his role as the head of the Burton family or as the principal of Taragon University, maintained a high reputation throughout Taragon City. 

Magnus hoped the two brothers would remain humble and avoid the ostentatious behaviour typical of other wealthy young masters. 

“I haven’t mentioned this yet, but last time, Isabelle saved me when I collapsed at the entrance of the mall and nearly had a stroke,” Magnus shared with the brothers. 

Both brothers turned to look at Isabelle. 

Logan, looking astonished, asked, “Isabelle, do you know alternative medicine? And acupuncture?” 

Isabelle responded modestly, “A bir.” 

Magnus laughed. “Don’t downplay it. I am the best judge of your medical skills. 

Logan continued, “But you’re so young. Shouldn’t practitioners of alternative medicine be in their sixties or seventies? Who taught you? Did you study under a master? If you have studied medicine, why didn’t you go to medical school?” 

Magnus interjected, “Why do you have so many questions?”

Logan backed down. 

Magnus went on, “Isabelle has said that neither alternative medicine nor mathematics are her strong suits. 

Logan looked surprised again. “Not strong in mathematics? But you’ve solved those problems on the 

forum.” 

James, who had been quiet, just watched Isabelle closely. 

Magnus smiled and asked, “Isabelle, what do you think of my two grandsons?” 

Upon hearing his grandfather’s question, Logan did not fully understand what was being asked but instinctively straightened up. 

He also sneaked a glance at his brother. 

Isabelle observed the two brothers and then casually raised an eyebrow, “Do you really want my opinion?” 

Magnus dismissed it with a wave of his hand. “Never mind, never mind 

He did not want to make another comparison with George–it would only demoralize the brothers. 

Logan could not help but wonder, Does this mean we don’t measure up? 

James settled back onto the sofa. 

“Layla said she solved that problem in two months. How long did it take you?” 

He vividly remembered the day Isabelle used four blackboards in the lab to outline the solution. 

Considering Isabelle’s formidable intellect, it seemed unlikely it took her two months. 

Isabelle glanced at James and responded candidly, “Ten to twenty minutes?” 

She had not timed herself precisely; she just recalled telling Ethan that she had not been completely focused on the problem and had even taken a break to type on the computer. 

Jammes inhaled sharply and asked, “How long?” 

Magnus sat up attentively and fixed his eyes on Isabelle.
