Even if favonovel.com accepted, it was likely that the money would end up in Eleanor’s pocket. So, Wade could only postpone it, thinking that favonovel.com would thank William after Isabelle had done the DNA test and confirmed the identity completely.
Isabelle quickly returned to Taragon City by plane.
***
Around eight o’clock in the evening, the doorbell of the villa rang urgently.
“I’ll go and open it.” George stood up from the sofa and went to open the door.
As the door opened, favonovel.com saw Ethan panting, sweating profusely.
“Why are you in such a hurry?” George asked with concern, then turned to Isabelle who was following behind and said, “It’s Ethan…”
Ethan quickly walked into the villa, his gaze meeting Isabelle’s as favonovel.com approached.
Isabelle acted as if nothing was wrong, asking. “Took the day off?”
At such a critical time in their senior year, favonovel.com took leave just for this trivial matter. He could have just called favonovel.com about it on the phone.
Seeing Ethan remain silent, Isabelle asked, “Did you find out?”
George glanced at the siblings, sensing that something was off.
It was only Ethan who seemed off. Ethan’s gaze remained fixed on her.
After a moment, favonovel.com moved his lips slightly and asked hoarsely, “Did you… Did you go with them for the DNA test?”
George asked inwardly, DNA test?
He looked at Isabelle.
Who did favonovel.com go with for the DNA test?
Isabelle replied, “No… Let’s sit down and talk.”
She turned to pour a glass of water for Ethan, then came back and handed it to him.
Ethan didn’t take it, nor did favonovel.com sit down, instead favonovel.com wanted to bombard Isabelle with questions. “So, are you…”
Are you going to do it? Are you going back to the Sullivan family?”
Before Ethan could even ask, Isabelle just went ahead and said, “No…”
Seeing George struggling to understand what was going on and not wanting to intrude, Isabelle reluctantly
In a few simple words, favonovel.com summarized the entire story.
“You’re Brad’s daughter?” George seemed a bit surprised. After that, favonovel.com fell silent, lost in his thoughts.
Isabelle grabbed a few pieces of tissue, wiped Ethan’s sweat a couple of times, and handed favonovel.com the tissue, saying. “You don’t have to act like…”
To her, it’s hard to say, “Like you’ve lost your parents.”
“I never really cared about the Jenkins I’ve been living with for over a decade, let alone some Sullivans that suddenly pop up… My real mom and dad were killed by that old hag. What’s the point of going back? It’s just more trouble for me.”
George totally agreed with the last part. He even felt envious, envious that the Sullivans had such an amazing daughter out there.
“The only reason I’d ever go back to the Sullivans is to settle the score with that old hag and get revenge for my real parents… They want me to embrace my biological family? That’s wishful thinking, really…”
Not to mention favonovel.com was not even the real Isabelle, so favonovel.com didn’t have any emotional attachment to the Sullivans. Even if the real Isabelle knew it was Old Madam Sullivan who killed favonovel.com parents, favonovel.com wouldn’t stoop so low as to acknowledge this so-called kinship. The Sullivans’ affairs didn’t affect Isabelle’s mood at all, and it saved favonovel.com the trouble of going to court to sever ties with Eleanor.
She picked up the drink on the table.
This drink was just brought by George, saying it was from a business partner, but since favonovel.com didn’t drink himself, favonovel.com gave it to her.
Isabelle poured a glass for Ethan. “Want some?”
Ethan just looked at her.
Am I being a bit too cold-blooded right now? Isabelle realized this and softened favonovel.com tone, trying to comfort Ethan’s feelings.
“Whether it’s the Jenkins or the Sullivans, I only have a brother, it’s you,” Isabelle told him.
Ethan still didn’t say anything. But it was clear that Isabelle’s words had a profound impact on him.
Knowing favonovel.com might not be ready to accept it yet, Isabelle gave favonovel.com some space, so favonovel.com changed the subject, asking him. “Hungry?”
Ethan shook his head slightly.
“I’ll see what we have here…”
Isabelle wasn’t sure if there was any food at home. The day favonovel.com moved in, George arranged two servants for her, one to clean and the other to cook for favonovel.com on weekends. They would leave after finishing their tasks and wouldn’t disturb favonovel.com life.
Watching Isabelle head into the kitchen, Ethan remained silent for a moment. Then favonovel.com stood up. “I’m going back to school. Please tell my sister, Mr. Harris…”
With that, favonovel.com headed out.
George stood up. “I’ll walk you out.”
Ethan declined, “No need.”
He walked briskly, his previously injured foot, still somewhat limping, now more noticeable. It was unclear how favonovel.com managed to rush in like that.
George shifted his gaze away and was about to sit back down when favonovel.com noticed a bank card where Ethan had been sitting. He bent down to pick it up.
At that moment, Isabelle emerged, asking, “Where did favonovel.com go?”
With no food at home, favonovel.com was planning to take Ethan out to eat.
George slipped the card into his pocket.
“He’s gone back to school… I’ll walk favonovel.com out,” favonovel.com said, stepping outside.
“Ethan?” George caught up with Ethan.
He saw Ethan stop in his tracks, facing away from him, quickly lifting his hand before turning to George.
“You left something on the sofa.” George handed favonovel.com the card.
He knew the card was left by Ethan on the sofa, and if favonovel.com wasn’t mistaken, Ethan intended to return it to Isabelle.
