The possibility of having someone pass a message for them didn’t sound feasible, as while the siblings weren’t
much capable themselves, they looked down upon others, so they always opted to do things on their own instead of
trusting someone else with their tasks. If they were trying to frame Logan, they would definitely meet with Tom
Poole in person.
With a hum, John hung up the call. He returned to his room while pondering what Logan told him about the conflict
not only with the Morgans, but with Isabelle as well. However, John didn’t believe that Isabelle would do anything
out of line.
While it wasn’t out of trust in her character, he knew her as a smart person who knew the importance of avoiding
suspicion. No matter how much she abhorred Logan, she wouldn’t do that at this point in time.
After casting his phone on the bed, John turned to leave for the shower. When he came back out, the phone was lit
up, indicating that he had a new message. He checked on it to see a message from Isabelle asking if he would be
present during Kate Blackwell’s birthday party, to which he gave a reply in the affirmative.
Then his phone immediately rang with a call from Isabelle. Over the phone, she told him that she received an
invitation, thus would like to know what time John would be leaving for the event and if he would want to attend it

alongside her. A frown formed on John’s face as he knew he should be avoiding Isabelle. He could still recall what
William told him.
However, his hesitance was obvious enough of a reply to Isabelle, to which she responded with a smile. “It’s alright
if you have prior engagements, as I can always go with my father. The only downside to that would be I would have
less to talk about with him than with someone around my age.”
Upon witnessing his silence on the matter, Isabelle added on, “We will go to the venue separately. If anything else
arises during the occasion, we can always meet up at the venue.”
John gave her a nonchalant hum, through which Isabelle could detect he didn’t possess a lot of zest in him. After
some pleasantries, she was about to hang up, but John called out to her with something else in mind, saying, “Miss
Bailey.”
There was a pause on her side before she responded, “What’s the matter?”
John cut to the chase. “I heard you had an argument with Sophia and Logan today.”
While his words startled her, she began mocking him, but didn’t fail to portray herself as being grave about the
matter. “Are you trying to invoke justice upon me?”

John scoffed before responding to her query, “I do not perceive myself as being qualified to do so. All I want to
know is if it happened.”
“Of course, it did,” Isabelle replied firmly. “But I wasn’t in the wrong.”
Truth be told, John cared not who was in the wrong. Flatly, he said, “Logan is rather childish, which I believe you
already know. I will only advise you to avoid engaging yourself in a conflict with him, as he isn’t above doing
anything if you manage to get on his bad side.”
Isabelle was displeased by what John said. “I know that much, so I never engaged him in a conflict.”
At this, John snickered. “I forgot to tell you that Sophia is in fact an even less desirable opponent compared to
Logan. You might be in more trouble if you ever cross her.”
Before Isabelle could say anything else, John went on, adding, “No matter what the current status of our
relationship is, I will never wish to see her being wronged or bullied, as I will be forced to choose a side in the
ensuing conflict, so I’m informing you of this beforehand. That way, our families can avoid some unnecessary
conflicts, which could save both our faces.”
No reply came from Isabelle after that, but John didn’t care enough to wait for one, opting instead to hang up. The
elation he felt upon doing so was both surprising and confusing. After a while, he then proceeded to check his
Facebook.
