Isabelle replied, “He came here once before, and we ended up making a bet. We’re friends, sort of.

George nodded slightly, curious. “What did you win?”

Isabelle said, “There’s a jade shop called Luxe Luster back home, popular with high–society women. There’s one in Taragon City too. Heard of it?”

George answered, “I’ve heard a bit–did he lose Luxe Luster to you?”

Isabelle nodded. “Yes,”

George’s curiosity grew. “When will we make a bet? I have quite a few stakes.”

Isabelle perked up, “Like what?”

George said, “God’s Armament, Alcott’s armory. I think you’d like it. Ahem, and the thing you mentioned last time.”

Isabelle asked, “The thing I mentioned last time?”

What did I mention last time? What did his cough mean?

George didn’t elaborate, but reminded her, “I have one condition: Dylan is off the table.“.

Understanding dawned on her, and Isabelle raised an eyebrow, asking the crucial question, “Are you looking to win or lose?”

George replied, “Winning is losing, and losing,is winning.”

Isabelle remarked, “Mr. Harris, you really have a way with words.”

George responded, “Hmm?”

What did she mean?
