Everyone knew that Sagefield students had lost so devastatedly that they ran back to the university in their underwear, chanting Taragon is the best“.

The police nearly arrested them en route.

For over a month after that, Humbert had nightmares every night.

Magnus looked at Isabelle, wondering what she was up to.

Humbert’s tone wasn’t friendly as he asked, “What kind of stakes are you looking for?”

Isabelle received a message from Danny. He wrote: ‘Boss, those Sagefield jerks are too arrogant! Ethan is traumatised!

He vividly described the situation to Isabelle.

Isabelle turned off her phone and looked out the window.

There were several luxury dormitory buildings in the distance.

“Are those new dormitories at Sagefield almost finished? They’re so close to Taragon that I thought they

were ours.

Magnus’s eyes lit up at her words. He immediately caught on but tried to dissuade her, “Isabelle, this isn’t right.”

He shook his head and continued, “Sagefield’s campus is already smaller than ours. Taking their dorms

would be too much.

Humbert scoffed and said, “Magnus, where do you get that confidence? We haven’t even competed yet, and you’re already talking about taking dorms.”

He glanced at Isabelle, then back at Magnus. Humbert challenged, “If you lose, what will you give me?”

A moment ago, Magnus had been opposing the idea of such a bet, Now, he replied instantly, “The four dorms on the west side. That’s fair enough.”

-Humbert glanced at them both. Then he slammed his hand on the table and agreed, “Dormitories it is.

Deal.”

Isabelle suggested, “Shall we sign a contract?”

Magnus waved it off and said, “No need. Can’t we trust Principal Brown?”

Humbert insisted, “Let’s sign it!”

Magnus called his assistant, “Secretary, come here.”

The contract was quickly drafted and signed by both parties.

Isabelle commented, “Betting dormitories isn’t a good idea.”

Isabelle continued, “We can allocate some land on the east side of Taragon, and Principal Brown can fund the construction.”

Humbert snorted and said, “You’d better prepare the funds, Magnus. I’ll thank you on behalf of my students.

He was confident in his student abilities.

After Humbert left, Magnus grinned at Isabelle and said, “Isabelle, our reputation and dormitories are in your hands.”

Isabelle replied, “No problem”

Magnus instructed his assistant, “Go and announce this on our school’s website. Make sure everyone who can attend comes to cheer.”

Magnus wasn’t short on money. He could build the dorms himself, but he needed to restore his dignity.

And he needed to execute it spectacularly for everyone to witness.

Isabelle found Ethan in his class, still working on that code. She took a look and quickly assessed Neil’s level.

“Flashy! No substance,” Isabelle remarked.

Ethan looked up at her, then back at the screen. Isabelle’s comment helped him replace his direction quickly.

Isabelle pulled out her phone and messaged George: There’s a computer competition against Sagefield this Saturday morning. Want to watch?‘

George replied: “I’ll be there.’

After receiving his message, Isabelle put away her phone.

But George wouldn’t miss this opportunity to chat, asking: ‘Wouldn’t it be too much to bully the kids? Shouldn’t your brother be more than enough, or are you planning to join?”

Isabelle asked: ‘Have you been taking care of your eyes lately?‘

George stared at his phone and was confused by the replied.

What did she mean? Then he remembered Isabelle once telling him to take care of his eyes and spend less time on forums.

Curious, he checked the forums and found out Ethan had already losi.

Isabelle waited for George’s reply, wondering if he was busy or if they had lost their sync.

Finally, she sent another message: “Don’t get it?‘

George replied: ‘I was thinking, if I ever get bullied, would you stand up for me?”

Isabelle saw the message and couldn’t help but smile.

She replied. Of course

Ethan finally found the bug in the code, feeling a bit frustrated. He muttered, “Why didn’t I think of this earlier?”

Isabelle reassured him, “Compared to you, the other guy does have some advanced skills. It’s normal to lose to him.”

Ethan then received a comforting message from George.

He showed it to Isabelle.

Isabelle read it without comment.

Ethan couldn’t help but defend George. He said, “George really cares about you.”

Isabelle wondered, Did I say anything? Why does he sound like he’s standing up for George?

She replied, “I didn’t bully him, did I?”

Ethan smiled, indicating that wasn’t what he meant.

Taragon students were still disappointed over the loss and upset with Neil’s arrogant comments, but then they got news that Isabelle would represent Taragon University in the next computer competition.
