Seth sat down and massaged his forehead. He quietly said, “He’s not an idiot.

Isabella couldn’t argue. Things were getting a little icy, but Nicolas came in

but if left untreated, she’ll be susceptible to more sprains. It’ll end up being a

big problem if she sprains her ankle too much.”

Seth pursed his lips, and then he looked at Isabella’s ankle.
