Chapter 481: Chapter 497: It Turns Out It Was Him (2)

——I’m sorry, Older Sister, please forgive me for thinking that you care more about the child in your belly than me. I don’t hate you or despise you, I’m just a little jealous.

——I’m sorry, Older Sister, you don’t know how much I’ve missed you over the years, how much I wished you could discipline me, scold me, and hold me like you do now.

——I’m sorry, Older Sister, trust me, from now on, I won’t let anyone mistreat you again.

——I’m sorry, Older Sister, from now on, let me bear the burdens for the both of us, okay?

In the depths of Elijah Smith’s heart, he murmurs the words he’s thought over and over again these days. As he murmurs, his eyes become moist again, and he continues to tightly hold Isabel Smith in his arms, trying to suppress his crumbling emotions while his shoulders tremble slightly unnoticed.

After a while, Elijah Smith releases Isabel Smith. As Isabel looks up at him, Elijah’s typical mischievous Young Master’s smile is on his face. He raises his hand, points at Isabel’s head with some disdain, and says, "Isabel Smith, please don’t be so nosy in the future. Don’t apologize so humbly for the trouble I’ve caused."

For whom did she choose to swallow her pride and apologize?

Isabel’s anger flares up immediately, and she raises her hand without thinking, slapping Elijah’s head hard. He yelps in pain before raising his hand to cover his head, yelling in his typical tone, "Isabel Smith, you’re a shrew!"

"Rascal, are you asking for death!" Isabel continues to slap Elijah’s head a few more times.

Elijah holds his head, dodging everywhere. As he dodges, he looks at Isabel with a smile and says, "Isabel Smith, actually, you’re prettier when you’re more fierce."

Before Elijah’s words have a chance to settle, he suddenly covers his calf and kneels on the ground. Wincing in pain and looking at the ruthless Isabel, he gasps several times before gritting his teeth and saying one word at a time, "Alright, pretend I never said it."

Isabel couldn’t help but curl the corners of her lips, but she tried to keep a straight face as she turned around and walked toward where Percy Stanton and Ella Adams were standing.

Percy had been paying attention to Isabel all along. He saw the genuine smile on her face when interacting with Elijah, and felt his heart race even when her actions were so fierce.

When will Isabel treat him with the same open-hearted and natural attitude as she does with Elijah?

He knows that when someone is restrained in front of you, it only means one thing: that she doesn’t trust you completely in her heart.

Her open and unrestrained behavior in front of Elijah shows that she has no reservations towards Elijah.

Percy feels fortunate that Sky still favors him. Just when he couldn’t figure out how to improve his relationship with Isabel, life suddenly brought them this wonderful opportunity.

Most times, he doesn’t like to owe favors to others, but today, he is more than willing to owe favors to those around him in exchange for getting closer to Isabel.

Since Sky has granted Percy such a great opportunity, how could he possibly give it up?

Knowing that, when Isabel walks up to him, Percy immediately speaks to Ella Adams: "Ella, don’t you have classes at School?"

Ella’s original intention was to deal with Elijah Smith’s situation. With that resolved, she quickly nods at Percy’s question, saying, "Alright, Marion Hancock, I am going to attend my classes at School."

Percy nods, "Go ahead."

At this time, Elijah Smith also comes over, swaying unsteadily. Percy lifts his head and glances at him, saying in a not particularly cold tone, "Elijah, what about you? Aren’t you going to class?"
