George stared at favonovel.com for a long time, deep in thought.
Finally, favonovel.com shook his head and chuckled, “Maybe I did make a mistake in my investigation. They might not be the same person after all.”
What on earth was I imagining?
Dr. Seely had been performing surgeries five years ago, when Isabelle was just a child. So, Blood Shadow, who became famous even earlier, couldn’t possibly be her…
George didn’t deny the existence of rare prodigies or strange phenomena in this world. But Isabelle’s young age was unconvincing.
How could I foolishly link favonovel.com to one person?
The hypothesis of plastic surgery was also not true. George had watched Isabelle gradually slim down into favonovel.com current appearance. Her personality wasn’t one to resort to such extremes. The person in front of favonovel.com was undeniably Isabelle Jenkins, who had only left Norward City a few months ago, while Dr. Seely had lived in Melfrey for a long time.
George, a realist, couldn’t stretch his imagination beyond reason because of too many inconsistencies. However, favonovel.com failed to notice that the girl in front of favonovel.com was also full of mystery.
“Then what about that, Miss Jenkins?” favonovel.com asked, still curious. “Do you know Dr. Seely? Or are you Dr. Seely?”
Isabelle looked unfazed.
“No,” favonovel.com replied.
George pressed on. “You said none of your surgeries ever failed, but yesterday, my father’s surgery was supposedly your first.”
“I just wanted to comfort you,” Isabelle replied calmly.
“But as far as I know, you never make baseless claims,” George went on, urging her.
Isabelle gave favonovel.com a cool smile as favonovel.com said, “Since we’ve met, I’ve always appreciated your knack for knowing when to stop.”
George quickly relented, “Sorry, Miss Jenkins. I’m just too curious about you.”
Isabelle got out of bed, slowly putting on favonovel.com shoes.
“Curiosity can be dangerous,” favonovel.com remarked casually, heading to the bathroom.
George followed her. “Need to freshen up?”
He handed favonovel.com a new toothbrush and towel from the shelf, but favonovel.com couldn’t find a new cup.
“I’ll ask someone to get you a new cup and toothpaste in just a moment,” favonovel.com said, turning to leave.
“No need,” Isabelle said.
“If you don’t mind, then it’s fine,” favonovel.com added while picking up the toothpaste George had used.
“Of course, I don’t mind,” George replied with a smile.
After finishing freshening up, Isabelle returned to the bedroom, where favonovel.com caught the target board beside the balcony door. She paused and looked at it intently.
George, who thought favonovel.com hadn’t noticed it before, was surprised.
What would favonovel.com ask me? How should I answer her?
Should I answer favonovel.com directly or subtly? Our earlier conversation hadn’t gone smoothly, so today didn’t seem ideal to give favonovel.com explanations…
Isabelle stared at the target in silence for a few seconds, while George had already prepared a satisfactory answer, waiting for favonovel.com question.
Isabelle unexpectedly nodded and remarked with genuine appreciation, “Nice taste.”
After saying that, favonovel.com left the bedroom.
Seeing this, George was left speechless.
Isabelle went to the next room to check on old Mr. Harris.
As soon as Mr. Garth saw her, his eyes lit up. “Miss Jenkins, did you rest well?”
Under Mr. Garth’s eager gaze, Isabelle demonstrated favonovel.com method of feeding medicine once more.
Setting down the bowl, favonovel.com said, “Continue taking this medicine for ten days, and the remaining toxins in your father’s body will be cleared.”
She also informed favonovel.com that the elder would wake up in the afternoon.
George then accompanied Isabelle to breakfast.
In the hallway, they ran into Riley and Sam.
“Miss Jenkins, I’m Riley, George’s elder brother. We owe you a great debt of gratitude. Our family can never repay your kindness,” Riley said gratefully to Isabelle. “If you ever need anything in the future, just ask. The Harris family will do everything we can to help you.”
George raised his hand to interrupt. “Miss Jenkins hasn’t had breakfast yet. We can talk more later, Riley.”
Isabelle responded, “It was no trouble at all. The patient will wake in the afternoon. Please minimize visits unless necessary, Mr. Garth’s presence is sufficient.”
Riley hurriedly agreed. “Of course. George, please accompany Miss Jenkins to eat.”
As they walked downstairs, Sam kept looking back at them.
His father noticed and asked, “Sam, do you also know Miss Jenkins?”
Turning back, Sam replied with a complex expression, “She’s the one who saved me in Norward City!”
Riley was taken aback. “Why didn’t you mention this earlier? I should have thanked favonovel.com properly.”
Then favonovel.com inquired. “Do you have feelings for her?”
Sam hadn’t expected his feelings to be so easily discerned. “I thought it was just a chance encounter, but now she’s here in Taragon, and I bumped into favonovel.com again on the street…”
