Resurrecting the Genius Within 

Chapter 376 New School Term 

+5 Pearls 

Isabelle knew about Joshua’s situation; they had been in contact all this time, though neither was very talkative. 

Joshua’s front door was ajar. It could only close properly if locked, so it was usually just left slightly open. 

Inside, the sound of rolling bottles echoed. 

Isabelle pushed the door open and walked in. She headed straight to the inner room and found Joshua sitting on the floor next to his bed. He looked dejected, surrounded by the stench of alcohol. 

In addition to the bottles on the floor, there was a pile of books. 

He struggled with the desire to change and the temptation to give up. 

Joshua was clearly drunk. He stared at Isabelle for a long time without recognising her. She walked up to him and kicked aside a bottle, the noise snapping him to some semblance of alertness. 

Now somewhat sober, Joshua felt a pang of shame. 

Isabelle said, “If you can still feel ashamed, you haven’t completely wasted away” 

Joshua struggled to stand up but lacked the strength. 

Isabelle added, “What’s the difference between you and your drunkard father now?” Despite her harsh words, she helped him to his feet. 

She noticed a bottle of melatonin–sleeping pills–on the bedside table. 

Isabelle’s words seemed to sting Joshua. 

He leaned against the bed, silent for a long time. 

Isabelle continued, “Wash up and go to bed early. You can make up 

go to bed early. You can make up for the classes you missed tomorrow at my place. Don’t forget, you still owe me five years of work.” 

With that, Isabelle turned to leave. 

Joshua suddenly grabbed her hand. 

Isabelle frowned but didn’t pull away. 

“Are you helping me because of your friend, because of my brother?” Joshua asked. 

Do you 

have to be so melodramatic?” Isabelle replied. 

Joshua glanced at her. He paused for a moment before asking. “Did you just get back today? Maybe it was the alcohol, but his tone lacked fts usual coldness, perhaps even revealing some other emotions. 

“Yeah, Isabelle answered. 

Joshua fell silent again. As he looked at Isabelle, his gaze grew more complex.

Mon, 

Chapter 376 New School Term 

The next day, 

Joshua arrived with his books and laptop, ready for the tutoring session.

White Owl greeted him at the door, followed by a foreigner and a young boy who appeared around his age but looked younger. A robot trailed behind them. 

Joshua wondered if he had come to the wrong place. 

Ethan looked at Joshua, finding him somewhat familiar. 

Joshua remembered the nationwide stir caused when Isabelle helped him deal with a malicious car owner. Ethan knew about it, of course. 

Before he could figure it out, 

“Wool Cuatro barked at Joshua, clearly recognising him. 

Isabelle’s voice came from inside the villa. She said, “He’s a friend of mine.” 

This stopped White Owl from asking any more questions. 

Joshua didn’t expect such a lively scene. He glanced at Isabelle. 

Isabelle explained, “My brother, and two friends.” 

When the school term began, 

Isabelle took Ethan to Taragon University to register. 

The siblings caused a stir on the university forum. 

After registering, Isabelle took Ethan to the boys dormitory. As a freshman, Ethan needed to attend evening self–study sessions, so Isabelle insisted/he stay on campus. 

Although Ethan was disappointed because he couldn’t live with Isabelle and go to school together, he obediently followed her arrangements. 

Isabelle reassured him, ‘Give me some time to sort things out, then I’ll take you on a trip. 

“Okay,” Ethan agreed. 

Ethan didn’t fully understand who Isabelle was up against, not even George could handle it. 

All he could do was try not to be a burden to Isabelle and to avoid being kidnapped like last time, which had led to Jack getting hurt and Isabelle losing her eyesight. During his stay at the Harrises‘ house, he hadn’t even stepped outside. 

Isabelle felt much more at ease now that Ethan was in the same school under her watchful eye. 

That night, 

Danny rang the doorbell of Isabelle’s villa.
