Isabelle knew about Joshua’s situation; they had been in contact all this time, though neither was very talkative.
Joshua’s front door was ajar. It could only close properly if locked, so it was usually just left slightly open.
Inside, the sound of rolling bottles echoed.
Isabelle pushed the door open and walked in. She headed straight to the inner room and found Joshua sitting on the floor next to his bed. He looked dejected, surrounded by the stench of alcohol.
In addition to the bottles on the floor, there was a pile of books.
He struggled with the desire to change and the temptation to give up.
Joshua was clearly drunk. He stared at Isabelle for a long time without recognising her. She walked up to him and kicked aside a bottle, the noise snapping him to some semnce of alertness.
Now somewhat sober, Joshua felt a pang of shame.
Isabelle said, “If you can still feel ashamed, you haven’tpletely wasted away”
Joshua struggled to stand up butcked the strength.
Isabelle added, “What’s the difference between you and your drunkard father now?” Despite her harsh words, she helped him to his feet.
She noticed a bottle of mtonin–sleeping pills–on the bedside table.
Isabelle’s words seemed to sting Joshua.
He leaned <b>against </b>the bed, silent for a long time.
Isabelle continued, “Wash up and go to bed early. You can make up
go to bed early. You can make up for the sses you missed tomorrow at my ce. Don’t forget, you still <b>owe </b>me five years of work.”
With <b>that</b>, Isabelle turned <b>to </b>leave.
Joshua suddenly grabbed her hand.
Isabelle frowned but didn’t pull away.
“Are you helping me because of your friend, because of my brother?” Joshua asked.
Do <b>you</b>
have to be so melodramatic?” Isabelle replied.
Joshua <b>nced </b>at her. He paused for a moment before asking. “Did you just get back today? Maybe it was the alcohol, but his tonecked fts usual coldness, perhaps even revealing some other emotions.
“Yeah, Isabelle answered.
Joshua fell silent again. As he looked at Isabelle, his gaze grew moreplex.

White Owl greeted him at the door, followed by a foreigner and a young boy who appeared around his <b>age </b>but looked younger. A robot trailed <b>behind </b>them<b>.</b>
Joshua wondered if he hade to the wrong ce.
Ethan looked at Joshua, finding <b>him </b>somewhat <b>familiar</b>.
Joshua remembered the nationwide stir caused when Isabelle helped him deal with a malicious car owner. Ethan <b>knew </b>about it, of course.
Before he could figure it out,
“Wool Cuatro barked at Joshua, clearly recognising <b>him</b>.
Isabelle’s voice came from inside the vi. <b>She </b>said, “He’s a friend of mine.”
This stopped White Owl from asking any more questions.
Joshua didn’t expect such a lively scene. He nced at Isabelle.
Isabelle exined, “My brother, and two friends.”
When the school term began,
Isabelle took Ethan to Taragon University to register.
The siblings caused a stir on the university forum.
After registering, Isabelle took <b>Ethan </b>to the boys dormitory. As a freshman, Ethan needed <b>to </b>attend evening self–study sessions, so Isabelle insisted/he stay on campus.
Although Ethan <b>was </b>disappointed because he couldn’t live with Isabelle and go to school together, he obediently followed her arrangements.
Isabelle reassured him, ‘<b>Give </b>me some time to sort things out, then I’ll take you on a trip.
“Okay,” Ethan agreed.
Ethan didn’t fully understand who Isabelle was up <b>against</b>, not even George could handle it.
All he could do was try <b>not </b>to be a burden to Isabelle and to avoid being kidnapped likest time, which <b>had </b>led to Jack getting hurt and Isabelle losing her eyesight. During his stay at the Harrises‘ house, he hadn’t even stepped outside.
Isabelle felt much more at ease now that Ethan was in the same school under her watchful eye.
That night<b>,</b>
Danny rang the doorbell of Isabelle’s vi.

During the summer, Danny had been dragged abroad by his mother for a vacation. Several times, he had tried to sneak back to check <b>on </b>his car but had failed each time.
He had endured until the start of <b>the </b>school term before finally regaining his freedom.
The moment he got off the ne, he headed straight over to Isabelle’s vi.
“Luckily, I wasn’t asleep yet. Otherwise, you’d have to drive this <b>car </b><b>in </b>hell, Isabelle said, leading him to the
garage<b>.</b>
Danny chattered <b>away </b><b>with </b>his usual curiosity. “Boss, where’s our little brother? Did he go to school? What major did he <b>choose</b>?”
In the <b>garage</b>, a Maybach was parked.
Next to it was a Koenigsegg One:1.
As soon as <b>Danny </b><b>saw </b>his dream car, he couldn’t help but touch it. He asked, “Boss, did you fix your car?”
He instinctively started looking for his car, curious about which one Isabelle would give him. The anticipation was like opening a blind box.
But he didn’t see a third car.
Isabelle said, “This is the other one.”
Danny, who hadn’t slept for two <b>days</b>, widened his eyes in excitement, shouting. “You have two?!”
Isabelle tossed the car keys to him.
Danny caught them and saw that it was the key to the Koenigsegg One:1. He asked, “Boss, what does this mean?”
