Resurrecting the Genius Within

Chapter 28 In Search of the Mysterious Respondents

Jim didn’t give it much thought. He actually looked forward to meeting her in the future. He half–jokingly said, “I hope the next time we meet will be in a cheerful and comfortable setting.”

Isabelle smiled and reassured, “Relax, it’s definitely nothing like today.”

If Jim were to take on another lawsuit that degraded his professional ability, he would never agree, despite having brought up Yves sight hundred times.

Then Jim noticed Mike standing on the stairs. He said, “That seems to be your classmate.” He saw Mike staring at them, or rather, staring at Isabelle.

Isabelle had noticed someone behind her earlier but didn’t pay much attention. Hearing Jim’s comment, she subconsciously turned and looked behind.

She withdrew her gaze after casting a glance and replied, “I don’t know him.” Her reaction was swift and

resolute.

Mike frowned at Isabelle’s nonchalant denial.

Isabelle used to bring him breakfast and wrote him love letters. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call her clingy.

Now this girl even denied what she had done.

But from Isabelle’s perspective, it was true that the two were strangers.

Mike found Isabelle’s hypocritical and annoyed.

He walked straight past the two of them.

When he had walked a distance, he inexplicably looked around.

Isabelle stood in the same place and watched that man walk away.

Mike snorted coldly internally. He ignored them and entered the school building.

In the eyes of the top student, lacking ambition to achieve well academically was far more disgraceful than resorting to cheating to achieve high scores.

Isabelle looked at Jim’s business card and bent her fingers a little. The business card, which was treated as precious by Timothy, was tossed into the trash can.

Isabelle walked at a leisurely par
