Resurrecting the Genius Within

Chapter 238 Would You Date Me?

After George finished speaking, she didn’t respond, and silence settled between them.

After a while, she asked, “What’s the reason for telling lies?”

George explained, “When I asked you, you said you weren’t sure and you wanted to wander around, I saw that you didn’t want to tell me.

If Isabelle didn’t tell him, it meant she didn’t want him to follow her. Even so, when he received the news, he still followed her. George was worried about upsetting her, so naturally, he had to fabricate a lie to conduct business here, as if it were a chance encounter.

“I just wasn’t sure if the person I was looking for was here.”

Hearing Isabelle’s explanation and reason, George felt rather surprised and unexpected. He pressed, “So what was your feeling when you saw me?”

She was tired. It took her a while before she spoke in a soft voice. Isabelle answered truthfully, “Quite surprised.”

This time, George couldn’t help but turn to look at her.

The room wasn’t dark, with faint moonlight seeping through the open window. The girl’s profile in the moonlight was soft and beautiful.

The window kept banging rapidly, as if it were not only against the window frame but also against his heart. Along the way, George’s heartbeat became irregular.

Realizing that they were lying on the same bed, it was inappropriate for him to stare at the young girl like this. He quickly turned his face back upward.

George calmed his emotions. He spoke up, “There’s been a question I’ve been wanting to ask you.”

“Earlier, you said Ethan is attractive, obedient, and quiet, and you liked his type. If you are looking for a husband, would you prefer someone like him?”

George had been wanting to ask for a long time, especially after Isabelle said she wasn’t interested in older men. He wanted to know her standards for choosing a partner.

For a girl like her, who had power and stood at the peak in every aspect, there were higher possibilities for her to live freely without a partner.

And if she wanted to find herself a husband, perhaps wealth and power were not that important to her.
