Isabelle looked at the battered Joshua and frowned. “What happened?” The swelling around his eye had gone down significantly, indicating it was worse a few days ago. Clearly, he had waited for the injuries to heal a bit before seeing her.

Joshua replied, “It’s nothing.”

He seemed to be in a good mood.

Isabelle asked, “Do you have something for me?”

Joshua hesitated for a moment before taking out a delicate little box. “This is for you,” he said.

Isabelle took it, opened the box, and saw a bracelet inside.

With the bracelet in hand, Isabelle enquired, “Is this what you made from your part–time job? What sort of work was that?”

Joshua asked awkwardly, “Do you like it?”

Isabelle asked again, “I asked you about your part–time job.”

Joshua paused momentarily and said, “Fighting, 750 dollars per match.”

Isabelle’s expression darkened slightly. “You have quite a variety of ways to make money.”

Joshua seemed to feel guilty and remained silent.

Isabelle took the bracelet and turned to enter the room, leaving with the words, “Don’t
