Resurrecting the Genius Within (Calypso Rain) novel Chapter 238

Chapter 238 Would You Date Me? 

After George finished speaking, she didn’t respond, and silence settled between them. 

After a while, she asked, “What’s the reason for telling lies?” 

George explained, “When I asked you, you said you weren’t sure and you wanted to wander around, I saw that you didn’t want to tell me. 

If Isabelle didn’t tell him, it meant she didn’t want him to follow her. Even so, when he received the news, he still followed her. George was worried about upsetting her, so naturally, he had to fabricate a lie to conduct business here, as if it were a chance encounter. 

“I just wasn’t sure if the person I was looking for was here.” 

Hearing Isabelle’s explanation and reason, George felt rather surprised and unexpected. He pressed, “So what was your feeling when you saw me?” 

She was tired. It took her a while before she spoke in a soft voice. Isabelle answered truthfully, “Quite surprised.” 

This time, George couldn’t help but turn to look at her. 

The room wasn’t dark, with faint moonlight seeping through the open window. The girl’s profile in the moonlight was soft and beautiful. 

The window kept banging rapidly, as if it were not only against the window frame but also against his heart. Along the way, George’s heartbeat became irregular. 

Realizing that they were lying on the same bed, it was inappropriate for him to stare at the young girl like this. He quickly turned his face back upward. 

George calmed his emotions. He spoke up, “There’s been a question I’ve been wanting to ask you.” 

“Earlier, you said Ethan is attractive, obedient, and quiet, and you liked his type. If you are looking for a husband, would you prefer someone like him?” 

George had been wanting to ask for a long time, especially after Isabelle said she wasn’t interested in older men. He wanted to know her standards for choosing a partner. 

For a girl like her, who had power and stood at the peak in every aspect, there were higher possibilities for her to live freely without a partner. 

And if she wanted to find herself a husband, perhaps wealth and power were not that important to her. 

With her strength, she probably wanted someone who would make her comfortable and happy, as well as enjoy spending time with her. 

This time, he waited longer to hear her response, which sounded a bit weary. “There are no standards; it just depends on the person I meet.” 

No standard? She makes judgments based on the people she encounters. 

George took a deep breath and said, “If you don’t judge by standards but by the person, what do you 

think

Chapter 238 Would You Date Me? 

“Ms. Jenkins, would you date me?” 

His tone was gentle, but it carried a warm sincerity. 

George looked upward; his face betrayed no emotion, but the slight tightness of his lips and anticipation in his eyes could see his nervousness. 

He held his breath and tensed his body under the blanker. 

He waited for a long time, but there was no response. 

George turned to look at Isabelle again, only to see the girl with her eyes closed, breathing evenly and peacefully, in a serene sleep. 

She fell asleep. 

George didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. 

Such a good opportunity, such a wonderful atmosphere, the courage he finally mustered, and, in the end, she fell asleep before he asked the question 

George’s face was filled with a helpless smile. He simply looked at her, admiring her features and taking in everything with his fervent gaze. 

He didn’t know how long he’d been indulging in it, but George’s neck was sore, and he was still reluctant to turn his face away. 

At this moment, she suddenly turned her face toward him, facing him just inches away. 

Caught off guard, George’s breath stopped, and Adam’s apple moved silently. 

Her face was close to him; her warm breath was spraying on his face, tickling him. 

George relied on extraordinary self–control, greedily indulged for a few minutes, and finally couldn’t hold 

He lifted the blanket off his body, sat up from the bed, and took a long breath, feeling restless and hot all 

over. 

To calm himself down, George closed his eyes, the veins on his forehead slightly pulsing. 

He put on his shoes, got out of bed, tidied up the blanket for her, and then returned to the window seat. 

The window kept making noise. George grabbed the window frame again. For the whole night, he took in the cold air to calm his emotions. 

The next day, the sun was barely rising. 

George planned to leave the room earlier to avoid suspicion.
