Resurrecting the Genius Within (Calypso Rain) novel Chapter 325

Chapter 325 Not to be Underestimated 

Stepping into the villa, Joshua felt a bit awkward, glancing around the extravagantly decorated living 

room

At the slightest noise, Cuatro dashed downstairs and upon seeing a stranger, he ran up to Joshua, circling him twice, then sniffed at him with his dog nose before barking twice at him, making Joshua even more uneasy 

Isabelle reassured Joshua. He won’t bite.” 

Joshua asked, Do you live here alone?” 

Yes. Take a seat.” 

Isabelle went upstairs and brought down a spare notebook for him

Isabelle said, Here, just use it

Joshua subconsciously wanted to refuse

Isabelle asked, How can you study computer science without a computer?” 

With that remark, Joshua fell silent

He seemed like he wanted to say thank you, but couldn’t bring himself to

After last night’s incident, Isabelle could sense Joshua’s change in attitude towards her. Knowing it was because of his brother, he no longer resisted her goodwill

Let’s get started. Isabelle sat down. 

Joshua had only managed to catch up on a bit of last semester’s courses by himself, but he was completely lost in this semester’s. He had to start from the basics

Isabelle showed a patience she’d never displayed before

She explained things clearly and simply, even better than the teachers, yet with less effort, leaving out anything unnecessary

Joshua was smart too, catching on quickly, but being a newbie to computers made him a bit clumsy

Around sixthirty, the maid came to cook dinner and feed the dog before leaving

Isabelle and Joshua had dinner together

It wasn’t until around ten at night that their study session finally wrapped up

Before Joshua left, Isabelle gave him the computer

After hesitating a bit, Joshua took the computer and promised Isabelle, I’ll pay you back someday.” 

Once Joshua left, Isabelle went upstairs and grabbed her computer

Finished 

In the following days, Joshua would leave school with Isabelle for their tutoring sessions at the villa. They grew closer, and their classmates couldn’t help but notice, sparking more gossip among them One evening, while Isabelle was chatting with Joshua, a car pulled up outside, followed by the doorbell ringing 

Isabelle sent Cuatro to open the door

Cuatro opened the door and upon seeing it was George, he quickly retreated, lifting his front paws high and slammed the door shut with a loud bang,narrowly missing George’s nose

Isabelle said, Cuatro.” 

Cuatro pretended to be clueless, acting innocent

Worried that Isabelle might get mad, Cuatro eventually reluctantly reopened the door and let George in

George stepped into the living room and spotted the two sitting close together on the couch. He approached

Joshua glanced briefly at George from his books, then quickly looked away

Dylan followed shortly, sizing up Joshua and commenting inwardly, Other than age, he’s got no advantages, Nothing to worry about

While Isabelle was teaching Joshua the new course material, George was left on the sidelines, finding a place to sit on his own

TJ 

Not wanting to disrupt, George stayed quiet

He sat there awkwardly for over ten minutes, afraid to make a sound, enduring Cuatro’s unwelcoming glances

Isabelle wrapped up her explanation of the first three topics of the new course in one breath, leaving Joshua to mull it over before finally turning her attention to him. Have you had dinner?” 

George replied, Not yet, I came straight from the company

Isabelle said, We haven’t either, we’ll grab something together later.” 

George heard this and glanced at Joshua

Isabelle introduced him, He is Joshua.” 

George just replied with a simple Hmm.” 

He didn’t say anything else

The living room was quiet, with only Cuatro playing with a ball and the sound of Joshua writing

George had expected Isabelle to chat with him, but after introducing Joshua, she left him hanging again

Isabelle’s eyes lingered on Joshua’s face, which bore a striking resemblance to Storm Shadow’s, lost in 

thought
