Isabel's words immediately caught Reggie's attention, and concern flickered across his face.

"Isa, if your stomach's upset, maybe you should lay off the fruit for now."

"Oh, okay," she replied casually, though her actions told a different story as she quietly popped an orange slice into her mouth. Reggie couldn't help but grin, shaking his head in amusement.

"Want me to warm it up for you?" he offered, still looking out for her.

"Thanks, Reg!" Isabel responded, grateful for his thoughtfulness.

As Reggie disappeared into the kitchen, Isabel quickly set her phone aside, pressing her fingers to her wrist to check her pulse.

As Isabel tried to process the news, her phone rang, snapping her out of her thoughts.

Her heart skipped when she saw Xander's name flashing on the screen. A wave of panic washed over her.

"H-hello? Is something wrong?"

Xander noticed that her tone seemed off, and his brow furrowed.

You sound anxious."
