Chapter 39 Isabelle Recognises George From That Night

A man in a suit, carrying the slight evening chill, strode across the courtyard and through the main

entrance.

He nodded in acknowledgment after meeting Mr. Burton’s gaze and stood behind Isabelle on her right.

As the man approached, Isabelle, who was sitting on the sofa with her back to him, felt his tall figure cast a shadow over her.

“Well, well, what brings you here today? Have you found the person I’ve been searching for?” Mr. Burton was always thinking about the math prodigy who refused to reveal themself.

“I just met a client nearby and thought I’d drop by to see you,” George replied, instructing Dylan to hand over the gifts they brought to Mr. Burton’s assistant. “If I’m not mistaken, your granddaughter’s birthday is next week. So, we brought a small gift.”

“How thoughtful of you,” Magnus nodded approvingly.

“Do you have a guest?” George glanced at the girl on the sofa, who remained motionless.

Magnus immediately shook his head and corrected George with a serious expression, “She’s not a guest, she’s my lifesaver.”

“Lifesaver?” George could not help but take another look.

Magnus explained, “Please, have a seat. Let’s talk”

George took a few steps forward and sat down next to Magnus.

His posture was relaxed yet elegant and dignified. As he crossed his long legs, he exuded an aura of authority that came from holding a high position for a long time.

When George looked up, he was slightly surprised to see the girl’s face.

It’s her.

The same girl who saved my nephew.

Dylan was stunned and blurted out, “She…

After a careful comparison, George confirmed that it was indeed her. She was thinner than when he had seen her through the car window, but there was no mistaking it.

However, wasn’t this girl in Norward City, thousands of miles away, just yesterday? And didn’t she break a boy’s leg? How did the end up sitting in his teacher’s house in Taragon City right now?

Isabelle met the man’s gaze without hesitation. The moment their eyes met, George thought, It seems she recognises me.
