Geoffrey rarely entered Isolde’s chambers. When he did, it was always brief and to the point. The longest the

had spent there was when she was injured, and she had said she wanted to return to Windermoun missing the

peaceful days she had spent there. That was when she had cried,

But since then, he had never seen her shed a tear for herself. The only the had seen her cry was when she

had looked at Prunella’s portrait in his room, but that was not about her own sorrow.

Geoffrey suddenly realized that this daughter of his was incredibly stubborn. He knew so little about her.

“Is something wrong?” Isolde’s voice broke through his thoughts as she noticed him sitting there, staring off into

space.

Geoffrey straightened his posture. “Your grandmother is very ill. Do you know?”

Isolde’s tone was nonchalant. “I've heard.”

“You haven't gone to see her?”

Isolde’s gaze was distant. “She doesn’t want to see me. If | go, I'd only make her angry, and that would do her no

good.”

Her indifference stung Geoffrey. His voice rose slightly. “There may have been many unpleasant things between

you two in the past, but she’s gravely ill now. You should put that aside. As her granddaughter, it’s your duty to

serve her while she’s bedridden. Not doing so would be unfilial.”

“I accept the charge of being unfilial,” Isolde replied lazily, without a care.

-Geoffrey was taken aback, his frustration boiling over. He knew that speaking to her in this way was

pointless, so he decided to get straight to the point. “The doctor said she doesn’t have much longer. Braden is

still in prison, and it's unlikely he’ll be able to cto see her. You should ask Pablo. He has influence with the

High Magistracy of Argentum. If he can arrange for Braden to cback for a day or two, it would fulfill your

grandmother's last wish.”

Isolde rejected him outright, without hesitation. “I won't ask. You know Pablo, you go to him yourself.”

Geoffrey's face grew darker, his patience thinning? He slammed his hand on the table. “If | could ask. | wouldn't

have cto you.”

Isolde raised an eyebrow. “So you admit it's something shameful. You care about your face, but I don’t.”

Geoffrey found it exhausting to speak with her; no matter what he said, it always resulted in a retort.

“Pablo values you. You saved his life. The day you called off the engagement, Pablo told everyone you should

marry Oliver. Clearly, he cares about you more than anyone else.”

Isolde froze. “He said that... in front of everyone? Who was there?”

a

She hadn’t paid much attention to the details of the engagement annulment. It had all seemed like a formality to

her.

Geoffrey nodded. “On the day the engagement was annulled, Pablo invited many guests-officials and nobles. He

publicly declared that once Oliver returned, he would finalize the engagement between you two. Pablo clearly

holds you in high regard. All I'm asking is that you do him this one favor-go ask

Isolde looked at him coldly. “Prudence has always been in good health. Suddenly, she’s this sick. Have you

considered why

Geoffrey sighed deeply. “It’s probably because of your brother's engagement. That day, when Johnathan and his

wife cto propose, she fainted.”

Isolde’s eyes narrowed. “It's a good thing she fainted, yet she still fainted. Isn't that strange

Geoffrey frowned, realizing she was accusing Prudence of being petty. He could feel his temper rising. “I know

what you're implying-you think your grandmother is narrow-minded and can’t tolerate Geoffrey making any

headway. Everyone is selfish, Isolde. In the past, | often clashed with her because of your mother. Looking back, |

know | was wrong in many ways. Maybe that’s why she feels I'm not as good as biological son. She wasn't like

this before.

Isolde’s expression softened as she listened, and then it becclear to her-Geoffrey wasn't just frustrated by

Prudence’s illness; he was breaking down himself.

She answered coolly, “I won't ask Pablo. You all figure it out yourselves.”

Geoffrey was incensed. “You stubborn girl, why are you so difficult?”

“I am who | am,” Isolde said, rising from her seat. “I have matters to attend to. Geoffrey, please.”

Geoffrey, thinking their relationship had improved, was taken aback by her coldness. She wouldn't even call him

father. He could no longer hold back his anger. “Isolde, how did your mother end up with such a cold, selfish

daughter like you? You're nothing like her. You've brought her nothing but shame. If she were alive, she would

have been dutiful.”

Isolde remained silent, her expression as frozen as ever.

Geoffrey glared at her, his frustration mounting. Realizing that continuing would be pointless, he stormed. out,

his anger burning.

As soon as Geoffrey left, Eentered, frowning. “What's wrong with Geoffrey again?”

Isolde glanced at her coolly. “He’s hopelessly confused.”

“Do you think he'll go to Pablo himself?” Easked.

“To fulfill his filial duty, of course he will,” Isolde answered with a hint of cynicism.

Esme’s frown deepened. “Foolish.”

As Ehad predicted, Geoffrey did indeed go to Pablo. And to make matters worse, he did so under Isolde’s

name.

When Pablo learned that Prudence was critically ill, he immediately understood the situation surrounding Braden,

Geoffrey, of course, was careful not to reveal everything. He only said that the issue with Jocelynn

Pablo listened, then paused before responding. “Alright, go back and tell Isolde not to worry. I'll visit the High

Magistracy of Argentum myself.”

Geoffrey was overjoyed, rising to bow deeply. “Thank you, Pablo.”

Pablo waved him off. “No need for thanks. This is nothing. You're a loyal man. After all that’s happened, just

settle things and make amends. The High Magistracy of Argentum won't be too harsh if no one objects.

Geoffrey awkwardly cleared his throat. “Well... | just thought the kid could use sdiscipline. But | didn’t

expect it to make my mother so sick.”

Pablo’s expression turned serious. “I understand. | agree with your approach. But for now, let Prudence rest easy.

I'll go to the High Magistracy of Argentum immediately.”

“Alright, I'll await good news from you,” Geoffrey said, bowing again.

True to his word, Pablo wasted no time. As soon as Geoffrey left, Pablo made his way to the High Magistracy of

Argentum.

However, when Tyler heard the details of the case, his anger flared. “So Braden really is such a degenerate?

Trying to harm his own brother? That's unforgivable.”

“Yes, he’s been charged with indecency and fighting. It's only because Clark didn’t pursue it further, Tyler added

in a low voice.

“Does Geoffrey know?” Pablo immediately asked.

Tyler hesitated before replying, “If he wants to know, he can find out. But... the Duke's family, well, it's

complicated. Geoffrey isn’t malicious, but he’s been used by others.”

Pablo thought for a moment before responding. “This time, Isolde asked me, and she has saved my life. Plus, |

owe her for the engagement annulment. Tyler, you'll need to be flexible. Let him go back for a few days, and I'll

take full responsibility if anything goes wrong.”

Tyler sighed. “If a respected elder guarantees it, it's possible to let him return for a few days. But we'll need you

to write a guarantee letter.”

“Write it,” Pablo said, nodding.
