Resurrecting the Genius Within

Chapter 111 She Would Never Forgive

James could only assume that the two months Layla had spent solving the math problem on the forum had drained her and that she needed rest.

Her offer to solve this problem dispelled his doubts. He nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll give it to you later.”

After lunch, Isabelle left the cafeteria.

“Isabelle,” Layla called out to her. She had been waiting for her for a long time.

Isabelle ignored her sister and walked straight past her.

Layla followed her persistently and asked, “Isabelle, why didn’t you help me earlier? I’m your sister.”

Her eyes were still red, and her voice choked with sobs. Gone were the previous harshness and dominance towards Isabelle, replaced by a soft and vulnerable demeanour.

She didn’t dare blame her, but she wore a pitiful look on her face.

“Why should I help you? When others bullied me in high school, you always ran away as fast as you could,” Isabelle said.

She continued to walk away.

Layla followed her and apologised, “Isabelle, I’m sorry. I know I was wrong. I was too scared to help you. People say all siblings fight. But no matter what, our blood binds us as a family.

Isabelle was capable now; even the mayor of Norward had to treat her respectfully and address her as Ms. Jenkins. Layla needed Isabelle’s protection at Taragon University, even if it meant using her against Bella.

She also needed Isabelle to help her with the math problem. James had suspicions about her. She would face exposure if she didn’t take immediate action.
