Wade was in a daze, but his daughter dragged him away forcefully. Belle asked, “Cut the cake? Everyone from our family has already left.” 

If they didn’t leave now, they’d end up embarrassed too. 

Thinking of Kennedy’s stern scolding, Bella pulled her father harder. 

James and Logan approached Isabelle and expressed their concern. 

Danny stepped forward, blocking Isabelle from being seen. He declared, “She’s fine; no need to worry. Mind your own business.”

Isabelle replied, “I’m fine.”

Magnus laughed heartily and said, “Let me introduce you. This is Isabelle. Last time I had a severe relapse and almost died on the street, she saved 

me.” 

Danny leaned in and asked, “Boss, you did something so noble.” 

Kennedy looked at his unruly grandson and scolded annoyingly, “What did you call her?” 

“Grandpa, she’s our school’s top student, even better than James at math.” Danny didn’t dare mention her racing or fighting skills or her 

acquaintance with Jim. He continued, “I see her as a role model. So, calling her my boss is totally fine, right?” 

Kennedy snorted, “As long as you don’t lead her astray, I have been grateful. You and studying, really.” 

His grandson probably has some crooked ideas about the girl. 

Magnus laughed. “She’s hard to lead astray. Isabelle is quite capable. Remember my illness? Oh, here comes Mr. Garth.” 

Magnus spotted Arlo among the crowd. 

Although the Garths weren’t a prominent family, Arlo’s national and local reputation was on par with Magnus’s.

Guests were astonished to see these bigwigs surrounding Isabelle. Each seemed more excited than seeing their own mothers. People began 

speculating about her identity. 

“Who is this girl? Are there any prominent Jenkins families in Taragon or Kingstead?” 

“I thought she was just lucky to have old Mr. Holmes backing her, but now 

Seeing Arlo’s enthusiasm, Danny gave Isabelle a thumbs–up and praised, “You’re amazing, boss!” 

After learning she was acquainted with Jim, Danny and the others found it easier to accept her connection with Arlo. 

Soon, Danny found himself struggling to accept the scene before him.

Danny suggested, “Isabelle, let’s sit over there.”
