Chapter 667 Impressive Presence
“Hey, Isa, was that you?” Stuart was taken aback by the stunning girl standing before him, who was even more gorgeous than in the photos. Her eyes, clear and full of life, reminded him of Eloise. However, she had a colder demeanor, emanating a refreshing and extraordinary vibe that captured one’s attention.
“Stuart?” Isa said, her lips curling into a slight smile.
Stuart’s expression softened. “Yes, it’s me, Stuart.”
Isabella tilted her head and replied, “Well, hello there, Stuart.”
“Hello,” Stuart’s voice was gentle, almost like speaking to a child. “I noticed that no one was getting off the plane for quite some time, so I came up to check.”
At that moment, Stuart’s gaze shifted toward the woman sitting on the sofa. “What happened to her?”
“She had a sudden heart attack but she’s fine now,” Isabella explained.
“Sir, hello,” Sheila, who had been standing nearby, got up and respectfully greeted them. “I’m Sheila, the Logan family’s servant. Thankfully, Miss Isabella was piloting the plane; otherwise, it would have crashed!”
Sheila provided a brief account of the incident, and just from her description, Stuart could imagine the dangerous situation they had faced.
Stuart looked at Isabella again, noting her calmness as if nothing had happened. Her mental composure and the courage and determination she had shown… She truly lived up to being his niece.
“Do private plane pilots not undergo electrocardiogram tests every two years? Didn’t she take the test?” Stuart inquired, curious about the pilots’ situation.
“We had her previous medical reports on the plane, and they indicated that she had no cardiac risk factors and was in good health. She underwent an annual medical examination, and the results were always normal.”
“Then what could have caused this incident?” Stuart inquired.
“It could be pulmonary embolism, acute coronary syndrome, pericarditis, or something else,” Isabella explained. “Once we leave the plane, we’ll have Diane undergo a comprehensive physical examination. We’ll check her blood cells, metabolic indicators, and troponin I level. We should also perform a chest CT scan to determine if there was a pulmonary embolism and an electrocardiogram.”
As Isabella listed off a series of professional terms, Stuart looked at her with even greater admiration. He never expected someone as young as Isabella to possess such extensive medical knowledge. And he certainly didn’t anticipate their first meeting under such circumstances…
“I’ll make arrangements for someone to take her to the hospital later,” Stuart said gently.
“Okay,” Isabella replied. She noticed that it was almost time and started packing her bag.
Shortly after, someone carried Diane out while Isabella instructed Sheila to accompany them, ensuring Diane wouldn’t be alone if she woke up suddenly. Stuart’s gaze softened once again upon witnessing Isabella’s thoughtfulness.
Dozens of servants stood near the mobile staircase, eagerly awaiting Isabella’s arrival. As soon as she disembarked, the head butler, Quincy, stepped forward and respectfully greeted her with a raised voice, accompanied by a bow. “Miss Isabella, welcome home! I am Butler Quincy, and it’s an honor to meet you!”
“Hello, Miss Isabella, welcome home!” Behind Quincy, all the servants simultaneously bent down, creating a grand and respectful scene.
“Hello,” Isabella warmly greeted them in return.
“Isa, this is a gift I brought for you.” Stuart took the beautifully crafted rectangular gift box from Quincy and handed it to Isabella.
The small gift box was slightly larger and thicker than an ordinary phone, but its appearance exuded exquisite luxury. It was clear that the contents inside held great value.
Isabella also pulled out a gift box from her backpack. “This is for you, Stuart,” she said.
Stuart hadn’t anticipated Isabella preparing a gift for him on their first meeting. As he opened the box, he discovered a piece of white paper, about the size of a phone, inside. He was completely perplexed.
Stuart looked at Isabella, utterly confused by the gift. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
“It’s a wish paper,” Isabella explained. “You can write down your desires, and as long as it’s something within my power, I’ll make it happen.”
Receiving such a meaningful and unexpected gift, Stuart smiled. “My wish was for you to grow up happy and for your grandfather’s illness to be cured.”
“And what about yourself?” Isabella inquired.
Himself?
Stuart had never considered this question before. He was successful in his career, and in that country, he could easily obtain whatever material he desired…
“Stuart, look under the paper,” Isabella suggested.
Stuart moved the white paper aside and noticed a small, transparent pill bottle containing a tiny pill.
“This is an emergency pill. If you ever get poisoned or experience a sudden illness, you can use this pill to temporarily save your life until I can come to help you.”
As someone with Stuart’s prestigious status, there were undoubtedly people who would want to harm him, and unexpected emergencies could arise. While Stuart could easily acquire ordinary items, sometimes one’s life couldn’t be bought with money….
“The gift you’ve given is extraordinary and thoughtful,” Stuart smiled. “I feel like I took advantage of you. It’s both a wish paper and a priceless emergency pill.”
“This gift from Stuart is even more precious.”
Impressive Presence
“Oh, really? How so?” Isabella asked curiously.
“The box itself weighed around 5 grams, but even after putting the gift inside, the total weight was less than 10 grams. This indicates that the contents could only be something light, like paper.”
Stuart looked at Isabella appreciatively. “Please continue.”
“With Stuart’s status, the box could have contained a blank check, a substantial amount of money on a bank card, or the key to a mansion…”
“But Stuart might have been hesitant to leave the amount blank on a check, or he might have thought I wouldn’t dare to fill in a large amount. The possibility of a mansion key was unlikely, so I assume it was a bank card?”
Only a bank card would require such a small box for packaging.
Quincy, who was standing nearby, couldn’t help but admire Isabella’s intelligence. She had correctly guessed all three possibilities. Not long ago, Stuart had discussed this with Quincy, and ultimately, Quincy had suggested giving Isabella a generous allowance card so she could purchase whatever she desired.
“Hahaha,” Stuart chuckled. “You guessed it right. Was the gift too mundane?”
“No, I could see how much Stuart valued me through this gift,” Isabella expressed. “He could have easily given me a dress or a necklace, but he was concerned that I might not like what he chose, so he simply gave me a card. Thank you, Stuart.”
“Hahaha,” Stuart laughed, entertained by Isabella’s perspective. Why was she so likable?
The other side.
After calming down, Cecilia remembered Eloise’s distant behavior the previous night and decided to offer her comfort. However, Cecilia had to be cautious and protect her identity as a member of the Logan family.
It was already 7:30 in the morning in Yushon when Eloise sat at the dining table, prepared to have breakfast. Suddenly, her phone rang, interrupting the tranquility.
“What did you say? Diane had a heart attack last night? And the plane was being piloted by Isa?” Eloise’s voice trembled with concern, causing Williams, who was sitting beside her, to spill his milk in fright.
“Is Isa alright?” Eloise held her phone tightly, her grip tightening instinctively.
Williams leaned closer, straining to hear the conversation on the other end of the line.
After listening to the person on the other side, Eloise finally felt a sense of relief. “You scared me! I’m glad she’s okay… I’m glad she’s okay…” Tears welled up in Eloise’s eyes.
She had never imagined that Isabella knew how to pilot a plane… The thought brought both gratitude and tears to Eloise’s eyes. The consequences could have been unimaginable if Isabella hadn’t possessed that skill.
