It probably had something to do with Isabelle sitting across from Joshua during lunch.  Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Joshua didn’t pay much attention to it and sat down. After a while, some notebooks were placed on his desk. He looked up and saw it was Isabelle. 

The whispers among the classmates immediately grew louder. 

Joshua’s lips moved like he wanted to say thanks, but he couldn’t bring himself to do it 

Isabelle didn’t seem to care and went back to her seat. 

Joshua opened the top notebook, and saw the name of the student in charge of the class‘ subject on the title page–Isabelle had borrowed it. 

Early Saturday morning. 

Arlo came to check on Deborah. 

Last time, Arlo came with Magnus to see Deborah, but this time it wasn’t just them. 

Isabelle was there too. 

Joshua was mopping up Deborah Martinez, his mom’s vomit when they showed up. 

In the shabby little room with peeling walls and a nasty smell, anyone would feel embarrassed if they were! caught in that situation. 

“Sorry, we saw the door was open and came in without knocking, Magnus said, trying to help Joshua keep a bit of his dignity. 

Joshua didn’t say anything. He buried his head in his work, wiped the floor clean, and walked out with the 

παρ. 

Isabelle stepped aside to make way for him. 

Joshua’s family lived on the fourth floor in a small apartment with one bedroom, a living room, and a tiny kitchen and bathroom that were cramped. 

The few dishes they had were placed on the dining table in the living room. 

The place had barely any furniture, and there were even knife marks on the door, deeply embedded and looking pretty unsettling. 

The only bedroom was for Joshua’s sick mom, so Joshua slept in the living room on an old bed with just one pillow. 

There wasn’t even a desk. 

It was shabby but tidy. 

When Joshua, came back after cleaning the mop, he saw Isabelle in the living room, checking out the small shabby place. She even flipped the calendar on the wall, which had been there for years and was totally out

She seemed like she was just bored and tagging along. 

After Arlo finished checking Deborah’s pulse, he called Isabelle into the room.

Deborah was in really bad shape. She had overworked herself when she was younger, had all sorts of health problems, and had suffered a lot of abuse from her alcoholic husband. 

Two years ago, she was diagnosed with uremia. She relied on a small government subsidy for her medication and was now bedridden, suffering from the illness. 

All the household responsibilities had fallen on Joshua. 

Uremia can’t be cured, so they take it one day at a time. 

Arlo wanted to see if Isabelle could help ease Deborah’s pain and extend her life as much as possible. 

Isabelle wasn’t there just to hang out 

When Arlo saw her take out her acupuncture kit, he stepped–aside. 

“Miss Jenkins’s got better medical skills than me, so don’t worry.” Arlo assured Joshua. 

“Yeah, that’s true,” Magnus added. 

Isabelle plopped down by the bed and told the others, “You all can leave first.” 

With that, Magnus was the only one who left the room. 

Isabelle glanced at Arlo and Joshua, who hadn’t budged. 

Under Isabelle’s gaze, both Joshua, who wanted to help and Arlo, who was preparing to learn, also exited 

the room. 

Joshua headed to the kitchen to brew some medicine for his mom. 

Isabelle unbuttoned Deborah’s shirt and started giving her acupuncture. 

After a few needles, Deborah’s pained expression began to ease, and she looked at Isabelle with astonishment and gratitude. 

With a few more needles, Deborah said, “Thank you, child.” Her voice was tinged with the sickness- induced weakness. 

Isabelle stole a glance at her, still busy with the needles. “Your son is very thoughtful.” 

She chatted with Deborah as if she were chatting with a patient in the hospital, aiming to case the patient’s nervousness, not abruptly. 

Deborah said, “This child has had a hard life, following me without experiencing a single good day, and occasionally enduring beatings from his father.” 

Quickly, tears welled up in Déborah’s eyes, feeling like she owed her son. 

Isabelle asked, “How many children do you have?”

Bringing up this topic, Deborah, who had been plagued by illness for years, first seemed a bit absent- minded, then her eyes filled with sorrow. 

“Joshua has an older brother. Not long after he was born, he was abducted. We still haven’t found him… Deborah’s voice choked up. 

That was something Danny hadn’t discovered. 

Back then, times were tough, Deborah couldn’t afford to give birth in a hospital, so the children were all born at home, or with the help of someone else. 

Joshua was also born at home, with no hospital records. 

Having two children born at home was considered fortunate. 

Isabelle asked, “How old would the older brother be now?” 

“If he’s still alive, he’d be twenty–five this year,” Deborah replied. 

Isabelle’s hand paused while needling–Storm Shadow was two years her senior. 

Isabelle asked, “Did you give a name for him?” 

“Lucas Marley!” 

Isabelle whispered, “Lucas.” 

Then, she asked, “Does he have any special birthmarks? It’d help in finding him.” 

“He’s got a mole behind his left ear,” Deborah replied. 

Storm Shadow didn’t have a mole there, but it wasn’t impossible it was removed by Dark Shadow. She hadn’t checked closely if there were any signs of mole removal behind his left ear.
