Resurrecting the Genius Within

Chapter 182 Self–Deception

“Where do you want to put the needles?” George asked.

Histone revealed his pent–up emotions.

Isabelle looked at his tense face. Her eyebrows raised slightly, and she slowed down her movements while drying her hair.

There was no anger in his eyes, only worry.

This made Isabelle pause, and she softened her demeanor. She took two steps forward and reached out to touch George’s face.

George was holding back his anger as he saw the girl suddenly reach out and touch his forehead. Her soft thumb pressed gently between his eyebrows and massaged lightly.

He was slightly stunned.

Isabelle explained, “When you’re angry or upset, just stimulating this pressure point can release dopamine and make you feel happier.”

George watched her.

Her thumb was slightly damp, and as she pressed against his brow, the sensation was cold.

George didn’t know if it was the dopamine release or just her touch.

She managed to comfort him.

He quickly calmed down.

George realised he had overreacted and acted out of line.

Im not angry,” George explained apologetically. I’m just worried about you.”
