Isabelle glanced at him. "Murder and arson, are you up for it?"

Danny chuckled. "Come on, Boss, you know how to joke

Just then, Danny's sister, Melissa, showed up.

She said, "Isabelle, I'm Melissa, Danny's sister. Nice to meet you"

Isabelle sized her up, thinking, So, she's the one Danny talked about, the girl who's not into George?

Then she reached out for a handshake.

Danny said, "What brings you

Melissa said, "Shut up. This doesn't concern you. I'm talking with Isabelle. You can go chill elsewhere." Melissa spoke fast, her expres lank, but she quickly switched back to a smile as she looked at Isabelle. "Isabelle, if you don't mind me asking, are you... friends with Lawyer Jim?

Isabelle. Yeah.

Melissa clenched her fists, "Awesome."

Isabelle asked, "Do you need something?"

"It's like this. I Saw Danny still there, Melissa glared at him, "Can you step aside? Adults are talking. children should stay out of it."

Danny pointed at Isabelle, unwilling to back down, "She's even younger than me."

Under Melissa's fierce gaze, Danny fell silent and quietly moved aside.

"Um, is Mr. Carter still in Taragon City?"

"No."

A visible pang of disappointment crossed Melissa's eyes.

Afterwards....

Melissa rattled on, speaking subtly but filled with admiration and adoration for Jim in every word and between the lines.

As Melissa took a moment to catch her breath, Isabelle cut in, asking, "Do you have feelings for him?"

Melissa was taken aback, not expecting Isabelle to be so straightforward.

Blushing slightly at the straightforward question from a student several years her junior, Melissa glanced briefly at Danny nearby to ensure he wasn't listening in.

Then, she lifted a hand to fuck a strand of hair behind her ear.

Before Isabelle could reply, she continued, "Is he single? What were his past girlfriends like?"

Isabelle answered, "He's single. He's never had a girlfriend before."

As for the year or two when she was out of touch, she wasn't sure about that.

Melissa's eyes widened, and she quickly covered her mouth, unable to hide her excitement. Never been in a relationship? Despite being so impressive, he's kept himself pure

What a treasure!

What kind of reaction is this? Isabelle fell silent for a moment, then clarified, "He's never had a boyfriend either."

Melissa exclaimed, “Huh?"

Realizing Isabelle misunderstood her, Melissa couldn't help but smile wryly, "That's not what I meant, I'm just surprised." Then she found herself in another dilemma, "Does he have high standards? Can I ask you for his contact information?"

After blurting it out, she hastily waved her hands, "If you think it's too bold, just forget I said anything. Melissa smiled, indicating it was okay if it was inconvenient.

Taking a look at the lovely, intelligent, and cheerful Melissa, Isabelle thought they seemed quite compatible in terms of appearance, status, and interests.

Just a casual favour.

Who knows, it might lead to something positive in the end.

Isabelle said, "Sure."

Melissa's face lit up with surprise. She hurriedly took out her phone and saved Jim's private contact information.

Before she could even express her gratitude, Isabelle gave her a heads-up. "You should be aware of his position. If you're thinking of pursuing him, you need to be mentally prepared." Melissa nodded. "I got it. Thanks, Isabelle."

Isabelle said, "No need to thank me. Heard you had a bit of a history with George?"

Lost in her excitement, Melissa didn't quite catch it, "Who?"

Isabelle said, "It's nothing."

Not replaceing George appealing, but rather being interested in Jim, is it because Jim is two years younger?

Melissa said, "Isabelle, if I manage to win Mr. Carter's heart, I'll invite you as an honoured guest to a grand

feast.

"You're pursuing Jim?!" Danny appeared out of nowhere.

His booming voice startled Melissa causing her to Ceam and accidentally fling her phone away "My

phone!"

Isabelle reached out and caught the phone skillfully, then handed it back to her.

Melissa took her phone, then turned to glare fiercely at Danny, who fearlessly added, “I don't agree!”

Melissa yelled, "You don't agree? Who cares! Mind your own business! If you dare tell anyone at home, you're in big trouble!"

Isabelle glanced at Melissa chasing after Danny, then texted Jim about it.

Upon landing. Jim chuckled when he found out Isabelle had played a matchmaker for him. He immediately replied that he wasn't interested. During the National Day holiday.

In a mall.

George took the lift down from upstairs while Dylan trailed behind, carrying bags full of stuff hanging all over him, even around his neck. As George pondered what else to buy, he caught a familiar voice from below.

"You've arranged these wines improperly. We can only accept half of the compensation at most, or else we'll report it to the police."
