Even Chase, who had come to receive treatment from Isabelle, was confused by the scene.
When he saw George arrive, the awkward situation involving two men and a woman caught his eye. George definitely felt Chase’s gaze.
One day, George asked Isabelle in front of Joshua, “Are you still not done tutoring him?”
Isabelle replied, “We’re done. I’m teaching him computer skills now.”
George looked at the two of them. After a moment, he said, “Take your time. I’m leaving
Anyone could tell that George’s tone was a bit heavy.
Isabelle looked at the door for a long time.
Until Joshua spoke up, “I’m sorry.”
Isabelle looked at him and asked, “What are you apologising for?”
Joshua hesitated. “You and him–it’s because of me, isn’t it?”
Isabelle stood up and said, “Remember to turn off the lights when you leave.”
Joshua followed her, calling out to Isabelle as she headed upstairs.
“Isabelle.”
She turned to him and asked, “What is it?”
Joshua glanced at her. He seemed conflicted and finally said, “I have something to tell you,”
Isabelle smirked and asked, “You’re not going to tell me you like me, are you?”
Joshua froze for a moment, but then his gaze became firm.
Isabelle continued, “Can’t you ‘see that George and I are close? The entire campus knows about us.”
Joshua asked, “Are you two together?”
Isabelle responded, “How far along do you have to be to be considered together?”
He asked, “Do you like him?”
Isabelle thought for a moment and said, “I do find him intriguing”
Joshua concluded, “So you haven’t fallen for him, and you haven’t confirmed a relationship.” His eyes lit up with hope.
He added, “Even if you do confirm, it’s just an ordinary relationship. Who knows how far it will go?”
Isabelle didn’t respond to him, instead saying indifferently, “That’s enough for today. A psychologist is coming in a few days. Be prepared.”

On the day the psychologist was scheduled to arrive, George showed up before Isabelle and Joshua could leave the house.
Joshua opened the door for him.
The moment they faced each other, the atmosphere tensed up, almost crackling with sparks.
Tutoring in the evening was one thing, but Joshua being there during the day was another..
George’s face turned slightly cold as he glanced at Joshua. He walked past him into the villa, where he saw Isabelle coming down the stairs.
He asked, “Are you going out?”
Isabelle looked at him and answered, “Yes, do you need something?”
George was carrying a bag in his hand. He walked over and placed it on the table, saying, “I brought you some fruit. Grapes flown in from Alcott.”
Isabelle replied nonchalantly, “Oh. Anything else? Joshua and I need to go out.”
Joshua quietly observed the two.
Perhaps George’s obvious jealousy from a few nights ago and Isabelle’s indifference had led to some tension between them.
What man wouldn’t be upset and have full faith when the person they’re interested in constantly spending time with someone else?
George still lowered his stance and brought gifts to mend their relationship. It showed how deeply he cared for Isabelle.
But Joshua was still there.
George asked, “Can I ask what’s going on?”
Dylan thought, What’s going on today? What happened between Mr. George and Ms. Jenkins? Are they fighting?
Isabelle glanced at the visibly ill Joshua and decided to keep his condition a secret. She replied, “It’s not convenient to say.
George looked at Isabelle for a long moment, then sighed deeply.
His tone remained gentle, and he asked, “Is it urgent? If not, I’d like to talk to you.”
Isabelle replied, “I don’t have time now. Maybe later.”
George’s eyes darkened as he accused, “You don’t have time for me, but you have time for others.”
Dylan was shocked. What’s going on? When did Mr. George get so bold and have the nerve to defy Ms. Jenkins? How does he dare talk to Ms. Jenkins like this?
