A man in a suit, carrying the slight evening chill, strode across the courtyard and through the main entrance. He nodded in acknowledgment after meeting Mr. Burton’s gaze and stood behind Isabelle on her right.
As the man approached, Isabelle, who was sitting on the sofa with her back to him, felt his tall figure cast a shadow over her.
“Well, well, what brings you here today? Have you found the person I’ve been searching for?” Mr. Burton was always thinking about the math prodigy who refused to reveal themself.
“I just met a client nearby and thought I’d drop by to see you,” George replied, instructing Dylan to hand over the gifts they brought to Mr. Burton’s assistant. “If I’m not mistaken, your granddaughter’s birthday is next week. So, we brought a small gift...”
“How thoughtful of you,” Magnus nodded approvingly.
