Jim offered a gentle smile, “What exactly are we talking about here? Your relationship or how you’re feeling?”

“It seems like both,” Joshua replied.

“You’ve touched on that a bit before, Jim noted, creating a comforting atmosphere to ease Joshua.

As he gently steered the conversation deeper, Jim asked, “Would you mind sharing more about what’s on your mind?”

He casually twirled a pen in his hand as a soft breeze fluttered the white curtains.

Joshua looked at him, hesitating, his uncertainty clear. He paused, struggling to replace the words.

After three to-four hours of initial psychological counselling, they left the consultation room to replace Isabelle waiting in the lounge,

Surprised. Jim remarked, “Have you been waiting all this time?”

Standing up, Isabelle asked, “How did it go?

The session had been challenging, with no real progress made in therapy.

Jim reassured her, “It’s okay; these things take time. We’ll keep working on it, step by step. His voice was warm and encouraging as he smiled at Joshua.

Turning to Isabelle, he suggested, “How about we go grab a bite?”

Isabelle agreed, “Yes, let’s.”

At the restaurant, Jim and Isabelle caught up.

“So, how has your relationship with George been lately? Any improvements?”

Why is he bringing up something so uncomfortable?

“Not really, Isabelle admitted.

“Oh?” Jim prompted.

Isabelle sounded a bit frustrated, “He’s getting more controlling

Jim questioned, “Him? Or me?”

Isabelle did not say anything.

So, Jim said in relief, “So it’s not about me. You two have quite an age difference and his personality… He’s probably more suited for a stable family life, which might not be what you’re looking for right now. But, you can still maintain a friendship.

Isabelle did not respond.

Joshua seemed puzzled. “Talent?”

Jim replied, “All of Isabelle’s friends are quite exceptional, you included.”

The night was calm.

Back at the mansion, Isabelle took a plate of grapes upstairs as a snack.

Meanwhile, Dylan lay awake at night, unable to believe the couple he had been rooting for would not be together. In his heart, he had already envisioned Isabelle as George’s future wife.

This was a blow too significant for him to bear; even the formidable Mr. George would struggle with such

emotions.

Dylan wanted to reach out to Isabelle but felt too shy and insecure to do so.

The next day, during lunchtime, Ethan bumped into Isabelle and Joshua.

Seeing Joshua, he hesitated but stayed. So, Isabelle asked him, “Have you had lunch?”

Ethan responded, “Yes, I finished my classes early today.”

Isabelle asked, “Do you need something from me?”

Ethan sat next to her and whispered, “Isabelle, did you fight with George?”

Isabelle responded, “Did he tell you?”

“Isa called and told me. Isa also asked Ethan for help as Cuatro had locked it up.

Danny suddenly blurted out, “A fight? Did you guys break up, Isabelle?” He scooted closer to her with excitement, nudging Joshua aside as he stared at her with keen

His eyes sparkled as if he had spotted a treasure.

Isabelle glanced at Danny, slightly annoyed, and asked, “Are you even busy with classes in your senior year?”

“That doesn’t matter. Ethan just said that you and George had a fight? How could he even think to argue. with you?” Danny pressed.

Isabelle replied, “It wasn’t exactly a fight, just sorting some things out.”

“What things?” Ethan chimed in.

Isabelle mused, “Why are you kids so curious about this?”

Eager, Danny nodded, “Absolutely, I want to know! Does George even know how to argue? What’s hist approach? Does he use bad words?”

“Why don’t you ask him yourself?” Isabelle suggested.

Isabelle paused before answering. “If it hadn’t been him, it would have been someone else.”

“So it really was him this time?” Ethan asked.

Isabelle did not contradict him.

Ethan, baffled, asked, “Why are you so devoted to Joshua? To the extent that you’d clash with George over him. Are you two together?”

Isabelle started, “Joshua and I…”

She found herself unable to reveal the full story about Storm Shadow to Ethan.

After a pause, Ethan picked up on Isabelle’s rare show of frustration and listened as she calmly explained, “Regardless, Joshua means a lot to me. I’ll tell you more about it later.”

Since that conversation, George had not been to visit Isabelle, even though he used to come around at least once a week.
