Chapter 40 The Boss Got Teased; An Unexpected Encounter With Danny

George did not mind but rather admired Isabelle. He politely said, “I apologise for my presumption.

“You weren’t presumptuous, you were audacious to the point of absurdity,” Isabelle muttered to herself. Then she stood up and said, “I’m not staying for dinner. There will be another chance in the future.

“But the meal is almost ready.” Magnus also stood up and asked hurriedly, “Are you rushing back to Norward City?”

“Yes,” Isabelle didn’t explain. –

She accepted Magnus’s warm invitation simply because of his identity. When she heard the young assistant call him Mr. Burton at the entrance of the mall, she guessed who Magnus was.

She did not care for herself, but Ethan would also take the entrance exam for Taragon University in the future. So she decided to take the opportunity to pave the way for Ethan and getting to know the principal of Taragon University was a good deal.

But this meal… She glanced at George without showing any emotion.

“Well, since you’re in a hurry, I won’t insist on keeping you. Can you give me your contact number?”

“No need, I will definitely go to Taragon University. I’ll see you on September 1st.” After Isabelle finished speaking, she declined Magnus’s offer to see her off, picked up her things, and left.

Magnus greatly admired Isabelle’s calmness and the confidence and composure that emanated from her.

Despite being refused, Magnus still had his assistant escort her out.

George watched Isabelle for a while. After that, he looked down and noticed the prescription on the table.

He picked it up.

The handwriting on the paper was elegant and flowing.

This handwriting looked familiar.

George asked, “Is this…”

Magnus looked over. “It’s the prescription she wrote for me.”

George looked at the prescription for a moment. After that, he put it down and stood up.

Seeing him stand up and straighten his clothes, Magnus asked, “What? Are you leaving too? Won’t you stay and have a meal with me?”

“Next time. I’ll go and see her off for you.” After

“See off? Who?” Magnus was puzzled.

George finished speaking, he walked away.

At this moment, the assistant came over with a phone. “Mr. Burton, it’s from the school.”
