Chapter 19

Matthew was visibly excited. "Let me introduce you to my girlfriend, Isabelle Harrington."

So, she was Matthew's girlfriend. I was surprised. "You actually brought her here? Didn't the dorm manager say anything?"

"She snuck in," he replied with a mischievous grin while scratching his head. He was clearly smitten as his eyes kept darting toward Isabelle.

Matthew felt slightly awkward. "Aren't they? Guys are handsome as long as they're manly. Don't set your standards too high."

"Manly? You call them manly?" Isabelle scoffed, her disdainful gaze shifting between Benjamin and Liam. "One's a shorty, and the other's a skinny baldy. That hardly qualifies as manly!"
