Resurrecting the Genius Within

Chapter 48 Yves‘ Encrypted Message 

“Really?” Timothy’s respect for Isabelle instantly grew upon hearing this. 

“Weren’t you at Norward High? I’ve been there more than ten times looking for you but never found you.” Zack, who had made many futile trips, was filled with mixed emotions. “Are you really from Norward High? Danny said he saw you in Taragon City a few days ago.” 

“Another Danny? Which Danny?” Peter wondered. What was this girl’s background? 

Ignoring Zack, Isabelle said to Timothy, “Mayor Foster, I won’t be having dinner. I’ll treat you next time.” 

She was about to leave when she suddenly smiled and turned to Bob, “Mr. Leif, right?” 

“Yes, yes, Bob, who was suddenly called out, quickly responded. 

Isabelle continued, “When doing business, one must keep their eyes open. If your business partner is untrustworthy, you can easily get stabbed in the back. 

Sean’s face changed drastically at her words. 

“Miss Jenkins is right.” Bob understood Isabelle’s meaning. He was happy to seize the opportunity and help boost Timothy’s reputation. 

After saying this, Isabelle left. 

Ethan quickly followed her. 

“Hey, don’t leave yet. I haven’t finished talking. Zack was about to chase after her, but his father stopped 

him. 

Timothy followed her, “Miss Jenkins, let me walk you out.” 

“Mr. Leif, how about I treat you to a meal next time?” Sean smiled nervously at Mr. Leif. 

However, Mr. Leif’s attitude had changed abruptly. He replied coldly, “No need.” 

Sean was very disappointed, and he started to panic. “Mr. Leif… 

But Mr. Leif ignored him and took his daughter to find Timothy. 

Peter also called his son, Mike, to leave. 

Leaving the bewildered Sean who stood there blankly. 

After a while, William finally said in a daze, “Does Isabelle know our mayor?” 

After seeing them off, Timothy and his group went upstairs. 

“Dad, why did you pull me just now? I finally found her, and I haven’t finished talking. In the elevator, Zack complained to his father. 

“We’ll talk about it when we get home.” Timothy lowered his voice and secretly patted his son’s hand. I have Miss Jenkins’s contact information. I’ll give it to you when we get home, and you can give it to

“Really?” Zack’s anger subsided upon hearing this. “Hey, Dad, why do you call her Miss Jenkins? Do you 

know her too?” 

“We’ll talk about it when we get home. Timothy hinted at his son. 

Seeing the mysterious Timothy, Peter couldn’t help but ask, “Timothy, what’s the deal with Miss Jenkins 

just now? 

Zack laughed. “You don’t know her.” 

Peter wasn’t so easily dismissed, and he laughed along. “How do you know I don’t know her if you don’t tell me? Are you hiding something from me?” 

Timothy had no choice but to play coy. “That Miss Jenkins…” He waved his hand. “I dare not to comment.” 

Timothy didn’t want to share such a good thing with others. 

He didn’t dare to comment? Was she the daughter of a president? Timothy’s words only made people 

more curious. 

“Zack just said that Miss Jenkins is from Norward High. Mike, have you seen her at school?” Peter asked his 

Mike, who was lost in thought, was taken aback. 

“Nella, have you seen her?” Bob also asked his daughter. 

Unexpectedly, Mike and Nella both looked complicated. 

Of course, Mike knew her. Isabelle had given him love letters and breakfast. How could he not know her? 

Nella was also very familiar with her. Her downfall was all because of Isabelle. 

“She’s a classmate,” Mike said. 

Timothy and his son both looked at Mike. 

“A classmate? So, she’s also in the third year of high school. Are you in the same class? How’s your relationship?” Peter quickly asked. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

Just as Mike was wondering how to answer, the elevator door opened.. 

The mysterious Isabelle had complicated a simple dinner, leaving everyone with their thoughts. 

As soon as the dinner was over and they got in the car, Peter continued to ask about Isabelle. 

When asked again about his son’s relationship with Isabelle, Mike, who had always disliked Isabelle and even considered being pursued by her as a “shame, was no longer as embarrassed to talk about it this time. 

He said, “She… she used to bring me breakfast.” 

Peter’s eyes lit up. “Does that girl like you?” 

“That was all in the past. She’s different now.” After saying this, Mike felt an inexplicable sense of loss, which he overlooked.

At the same time, he began to recall the changes in Isabelle slowly. 

“So what? The feelings from student years are the purest and hardest to let go of. She must still have feelings for you.” 

If anyone had told Mike before that Isabelle still liked him, he would have dismissed it by saying. “Nonsense.” 

But now, not only did Mike not reject the idea, he took his father’s words to heart, even feeling a sense of anticipation. 

“Putting aside her background now, she’s quite attractive. You should contact her later and ask which university she’s applied for. Even if you don’t end up at the same university, you two have the bond of being high school classmates and both being from Norward City. Plus, my son is so outstanding. Your relationship will progress further.” 

Peter’s words were obvious. He wanted his son, Mike, to pursue Isabelle. 

Although Peter didn’t understand why Timothy treated Isabelle that way and couldn’t figure out the relationship behind it, he was aware of the powerful Holmes family in Taragon City when Zack mentioned Danny. 

The same went for Nella. 

As soon as she got in the car, her father bombarded her with questions about whether she knew Isabelle and urged her to find a way to befriend her and become best friends. 

Listening to her father repeatedly mention Miss Jenkins, Nella became annoyed and couldn’t help but blurt out, “Dad, stop it. It’s Miss Jenkins who let the gangsters come to school and got me into this mess!” 

Bob, who was speculating about Isabelle’s identity, was shocked. 

Meanwhile, Timothy.. 

He learned from his son about the relationship between Isabelle and Danny. 

Knowing his son’s abilities, Timothy dared not let him pursue Isabelle. Instead, he asked him to find a way to connect with her. 

He guessed that Isabelle would definitely go to university in Taragon City. 

He had to find a way, even if it meant selling everything, to send his son to study in Taragon City, although it was a third–rate university. 

After having a satisfying meal with Isabelle, Ethan walked home under the moonlight and cool breeze. 

Seeing that Isabelle seemed in a better mood, Ethan couldn’t help but ask, “Isabelle, was that the mayor’s son just now? How does he know you? And who is Danny, he mentioned?” 

“Just an insignificant person.” 

“Oh. 

“Have you noticed any changes in your foot lately? Do you feel anything?” Isabelle asked.

“Yes, it seemed I could exert some strength now. Ethan immediately replied, his eyes filled with hope. 

“Take your medicine and soak your foot when we get home. I’ll give you an acupuncture treatment afterwards.” Isabelle said. 

“Acupuncture? You know how to do acupuncture?” Ethan’s eyes widened in surprise. 

It was already ten o’clock by the time Ethan had finished his medicine and soaked his foot. 

Just as Ethan was drying his foot, Isabelle entered his bedroom, holding a small cloth bag and a piece of paper with something drawn. 

Isabelle put the paper aside and opened the acupuncture kit in her hand. 

Seeing the rows of slender silver needles inside, Ethan couldn’t help but feel nervous. 

“Do I need to lie down?” Despite not knowing when Isabelle had learned acupuncture, Ethan still trusted her unconditionally. 

“Just sit down and roll up your trouser leg. I’ll teach you, and once you’ve learned, you can do it yourself.” Isabelle said, squatting down. 

“Will this process take a long time?” Ethan wondered if he would have to do this for two or three years, which was why Isabelle was teaching him. 

But Isabelle said, “I have to go out tomorrow. It’s quite far.” 

“Where are you going? When will you be back?” 

“To a place you don’t know. I’m not sure when I’ll be back. I can’t waste the long summer vacation by staying at home. Isabelle said, picking up a needle. I’m starting now.” 

“Relax, don’t be nervous. It won’t hurt.” 

“I’m not afraid of pain, Ethan said. 

Isabelle began the acupuncture treatment. Her technique was as smooth and effortless as always, casual and relaxed. She didn’t look like a traditional acupuncturist at all. 

As Isabelle performed the acupuncture, she explained to Ethan the location of each acupoint and the techniques and depth of needle insertion. 

The pain Isabelle could endure was clearly beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. 

Ethan was sweating from the pain, which wasn’t the slight prickling sensation from the needles but a throbbing pain from his bones. 

Ethan gritted his teeth and endured the pain, holding his mobile phone to take notes and record. From the initial nervousness, his feelings turned into hope. 

When one foot was covered in needles like a hedgehog, Isabelle stood up and handed him the paper she had put aside. “This is the acupoint map I just drew.” 

Ethan took it, gasping for breath in disbelief, “Isabelle, you are so incredible! You even know acupuncture.”

Isabelle said, “Remember it carefully. If you don’t understand something, just ask me. Don’t randomly insert needles.” 

“Okay.” 

Half an hour later, Isabelle began to remove the needles. “You need to remove the needles in the same order you inserted them, and the timing should be consistent. You can’t be careless.” 

Ethan remembered it carefully. 

Having finished what needed to be said. Isabelle returned to her room. 

She turned on her computer, only to find that someone had sent her an encrypted message. 

It was from Yves.
