Resurrecting the Genius Within

Chapter 290 Seeking Revenge Finished 'Since the morning..." Ethan began, then silently turned the camera to show George in the hospital room, hoping George would persuade Isabelle to return.

It was now afternoon, a workday, and George wasn't at the office but at the hospital.

The two of them stared at each other through the screen. George didn't speak, just looked at Isabelle, and they were at a loss for words for a moment.

Just moments ago, she had heartlessly refused his offer to cfind her at the bar. Now, meeting like this, Isabelle felt an unusual sense of awkwardness.

It was a feeling that was hard to put into words.

George was the first to break the uneasy atmosphere, cautioning, "Be careful." He didn't show any signs of being upset or emotional. His eyes only showed concern.

"Okay." Isabelle nodded slightly, not saying much more.

After ending the video call, Isabelle felt a bit down. Would George still worry so much if he knew I was Blood Shadow? The next day, Isabelle went out leisurely, holding the badge. She could enter places that were usually restricted to the public.

It was like she was just touring around.

Even though she sensed someone watching her, Isabelle didn't take the initiative to strike. She waited for the other side to make the first move.

For two consecutive days, Isabelle spent her days sightseeing, shopping, and evenings relaxing at bars. She neither searched for Jack herself nor allowed Liam to help, seemingly completely forgetting about Jack.

Dark Shadow couldn't decide and finally showed up on their initiative.

In the bar.

The heavy metal music was deafening, and the dance floor was filled with chaotic dancing.

Isabelle sat at the bar when suddenly a gaze full of hostility fixed on her.

She looked back and saw a man standing on the second floor, staring at her.

Then he turned and left.

Isabelle finished her drink, got up, and followed him upstairs.

Isabelle was led back to the slums, where she found Jack in an abandoned factory building.

Jack's hands were bound with a thick rope, and he was suspended high up on the metal roof of the building.

1/3 We Chapter 290 Seeking Revenge Finished There was no movement from him, and his condition was uncertain. The height and dim lighting made it difficult for Isabelle to see Jack.

But on the ground beneath Jack, there were scattered bloodstains. Ethan said that a knife had pierced Jack's arm. If he remained suspended like this without treatment, even if he didn't die, he would be permanently crippled.

Clearly, in this silent confrontation, neither side had won-Jack was tortured, and Dark Shadow hadn't been able to control Isabelle using Jack fully.

On the second-floor balcony, two people were standing.

They were Moon Shadow and Bamboo Shadow, nearly as powerful as Shadowblade.

*Our leader would like to chat with you," Bamboo Shadow said, turning the computer screen in Isabelle's direction.

Isabelle's icy gaze moved from Jack and lowered to the second floor.

On the screen, a man appeared, sitting in a chair.

The man's face was digitally obscured, with his features blocked out, leaving only darkness visible.

But even with just the outline of his upper body, Isabelle recognized him. He was the leader of Dark Shadow, Joker.

The man on the screen scrutinized Isabelle closely, then spoke, "We finally meet His voice, too, was processed. Isabelle's expression was cold, and she remained silent, staring at him without saying a word.

Joker looked at Isabelle with that familiar gaze, feeling surprised inside. He said, “You do resemble Blood Shadow." His words startled all the assassins of Dark Shadow present.

Joker asked, "We do not quarrel. Are you against Dark Shadow because of Blood Shadow? Did she instruct you to do this?" Isabelle's clenched jaw twitched slightly, anger burning within her.

Seeing Isabelle's silence, Joker continued, "It's a pity about Blood Shadow's death, but that was her fate." "I don't know what she told you, but regardless of her words, I think you should understand the strength of Dark Shadow. I don't want to be enemies with you. We can make peace." "If we continue to fight like this, it will only be mutually detrimental. Dark Shadow has no shortage of assassins.

"But you have family, classmates, friends. Even a Blackwater mercenary could easily bring you here and leave you vulnerable. I could send people to Norward City, to Taragon City, to eliminate everyone close to you." "Why sacrifice yourself for a Blood Shadow who's already dead? Look out for yourself first. Think about it carefully." 2/3 Chapter 290 Seeking Revenge It was both a negotiation and a threat.

Isabelle, who didn't yield to either soft or hard approaches, was particularly resistant to threats, She sneered disdainfully, "You don't even dare to show your re, yet you dare to threaten me?" Joker asked. "You call it a threat? So, are you determined to seek revenge for Blood Shadow?" "Are you sure you want to be enemies with Dark Shadow?"

Isabelle replied, "Before you captured Jack, I hadn't thought about letting Dark Shadow accompany Shadow to her grave."

Isabelle's eyes filled with a frenzy of killing intent. A коле, "Now you knife steppe chilting tone, "Now, you all die!" Send Gifts Blood out from her sleeve as she spoke in a €19 866
