The atmosphere was lively.
“What? Well… Mr. George?” Seeing George coming Carl thought to himself, This is bad…
Isabelle glanced up at favonovel.com and said, “Oh, you have made it.”
George walked over and said, “Yeah…”
Arlo quickly nodded to George. Carl had nothing else to do, and favonovel.com stood up to greet him, saying, “Mr. George, it’s been a while.”
George placed the thermos on the table and sat down on the sofa. He replied, “Indeed, it has been a while.”
Carl glanced at the thermos, then at George, who seemed very comfortable and familiar with the place. He realized his dream of having Isabelle as his daughter–in–law was slipping away.
George asked, “Is General Sarratt here for a medical visit? Are you sick? At your age, you should take care of your health.”
Looking at George, who exuded a powerful and intimidating aura, again, Carl thought, This is really bad!
“I’m fine. I’m here with Instructor Dittman…”
George glanced at Percy, who had just walked over. He asked, “You’re all here for Instructor Dittman?”
He quietly eyed Percy’s military uniform.
Was it a last–minute decision, or did this guy purposely show up in uniform?
Carl replied, “Not just that. I heard that Isabelle has extraordinary medical skills, so I thought it would be good for the young ones to make friends.”
George nodded slightly and said, “Understandable… Isabelle is indeed exceptional. But does the Major General, who spends most of his time in the military, have time to make friends?”
After said this, favonovel.com stared at Percy.
Percy replied, “I have few friends, but I can manage one or two.”
George then asked, “Have you made any?”
Compared to Percy, George thought Isabelle would prefer to be friends with someone of Carl’s rank. Given his understanding of Isabelle, favonovel.com valued people with more influence. He remembered the time during military training when Carl wanted to introduce Percy to Isabelle.
Percy remained silent.
How could favonovel.com answer such a sharp question?
Clearly, favonovel.com hadn’t made any progress. With George’s confident demeanor, Percy realized his father had done something foolish.
Seeing this, Dylan thought, Mr. George’s skills were getting more refined. He handles situations with ease and confidence, expertly dealing with these love rivals!
George had to accept Yves and Jim’s close relationship with Isabelle and watch them banter. But to him, Percy was insignificant.
Carl tried to smooth things over. He said, “It’ll take time. No rush.”
Either out of respect for Carl or simply not caring, George looked at Isabelle and asked gently, “What’s his condition?”
Isabelle briefly explained.
George asked, “How much longer will the treatment last?”
Isabelle replied. “Almost done…”
“Did you go on a trip recently?” She suddenly asked.
George had messaged favonovel.com a few days ago, saying favonovel.com had to go on a trip.
“Yes, I went to Lutril.” He paused and said, “To get you a birthday present.”
He had intended it to be a surprise, but now favonovel.com had mentioned it.
But, even if favonovel.com informed favonovel.com on favonovel.com birthday, there was no guarantee that favonovel.com would be pleasantly surprised.
Isabelle raised an eyebrow and glanced at him. She asked, “My birthday?”
George said, “It’s sometime in March anyway.”
Isabelle thought, Hmm… Not necessarily.
March 8th was the day William found her, but Isabelle’s actual birthday was a few days earlier. Blood Shadow never celebrated favonovel.com own birthday, and favonovel.com didn’t care much for it.
Isabelle asked, “What did you get me?”
George replied, “I built you a vineyard.”
Isabelle muttered to herself, “Another vineyard…”
George asked, “Hmm? Don’t you like it?”
Did favonovel.com already have a vineyard?
Isabelle looked at favonovel.com and asked, “Do you really want to know?”
George hesitated. It probably wasn’t what favonovel.com wanted to hear, but favonovel.com was curious.
“Yes, I do…”
Isabelle glanced at the others in the living room. She said, “I’ll tell you after this.”
George agreed. “Alright…”
Was this favonovel.com way of saving my reputation?
No matter what favonovel.com said later, George would be happy. At least Isabelle was considering his feelings.
Carl watched Isabelle skillfully administer the needle while chatting with George. He realized his son had no chance. If it were just George’s one, sided affection, after pursuing favonovel.com for half a year with no result, it would mean Isabelle had no interest in him. But now, it was clear that both had mutual feelings.
Meanwhile, Percy realized his earlier warning to his father to stay quiet to avoid disturbing Isabelle was unnecessary.
Isabelle could multitask effortlessly. She smoothly handled both the treatment and the conversation. The earlier focus and seriousness were just to keep them quiet.
Ten minutes later, Isabelle concluded the treatment.
Chase was unable to hide his joy. He stood up and put on his clothes. Though favonovel.com was bad with words, favonovel.com sincerely thanked her. “Thank you, Isabelle…”
She didn’t say much, simply informing favonovel.com of the time of the next session.
