Resurrecting the Genius Within 

Chapter 306 Admirer 

Finished 

George exuded an extraordinary air, both in appearance and demeanour, rivalling even the noble princes and earls of the royal family, if not surpassing them slightly

His close ties with the Duke added to his allure in the eyes of the castle owner, who harboured hopes of winning George over through his daughter

My name’s Alice. What about you?Alice inquired, noticing George’s apparent disregard

Suppressing her temper, Alice continued, I love this cake too. Is it for your family? Mind if I have a taste?” 

In a cool tone, George replied in Fleoburgian, It’s for someone special. Please, don’t bother me further.” 

Meanwhile, Isabelle returned to the castle, where Liam awaited her

Despite some initial complaints about not being informed about Jack’s outing, Liam softened at the sight of the happy dog that was wagging its tail

I usually let the army accompany Jack since I don’t really take him out a lot.” 

Isabelle remarked, Dogs handle new places differently from cats. Jack seemed to have a blast.” 

Liam expressed concern, But what if he wanders off?” 

Isabelle reassured him. He willingly tagged along 

After reviewing the surveillance footage, it was evident that Jack voluntarily hopped into the car

Liam sighed, addressing the dog. Bad dog.” 

Woof,” Jack responded

Just then, the butler entered, announcing, Your Grace, Mr. Smith and his daughter have brought Mr. Harris back. They’re waiting to see you.” 

Liam declined, Tm tied up right now.” 

Aware of the casino incident, Liam assured Isabelle, I’ll handle it according to the law.” 

The butler nodded in understanding

Moments later, George returned with a cake in hand

Sorry you had to go through that on my fief,said Liam politely

It is by no fault of yours, Duke,answered George

George approached Isabelle directly, questioning, Were you at the restaurant for lunch?” 

Isabelle arched an eyebrow, remarking, You’re drenched in perfume.” 

Isabelle’s heightened senses, a result of her blindness, made even a hint of perfume overwhelming for Isabelle

Chapter 306 Admirer 

Dylan shot a curious glance at George, pondering, Perfume? A woman? What’s Mr. George up to

Finished 

Liam observed the unfolding scene, stroking the cat, reflecting on how innocent yesterday’s handholding seemed compared to today’s events

George handed the cake to Dylan, shooting him a meaningful look as if catching him redhanded, tempted to give him a piece of his mind

He then shrugged off his coat, admitting, It was unintentional. I’ll be more cautious in the future.” 

George had hoped for even a hint of concern from Isabelle, but her indifference mirrored Liam’s

With a teasing tone, she quipped, Getting into mischief and returning smelling like a bouquet. Did you have a têteàtête with a bird?” 

It was likely the daughter of Mr. Smith, the casino owner

If Isabelle even had a change in tone, George could at least convince himself that she was jealous

While this left George somewhat disheartened, he reasoned that it was simply Isabelle’s nature. Perhaps he hadn’t yet reached a level of significance to trigger her jealousy

Dylan thought, That’s my idol for you. She closes her heart for romance. Men only get in the way of her career

Yeah, right, that was no good luck

George said, Let’s shift gears. I popped into the restaurant across the street and snagged you a cake, a birthday treat.” 

Isabelle replied, But you’ve already given me a gift.” 

George said, They’re two different things. A birthday calls for cake, at the very least. He then turned to Liam with courtesy. Would you fancy a slice?” 

Liam said, No thanks, sweets give me toothaches.” 

George answered, Much obliged, Your Grace, for today’s events.” 

Instead, Liam said, I should be thanking you for keeping the peace. My standing among the people has only risen after today.”
