Chapter 249 Aftermath

Jim was injured.

He bumped into Yves, who was rushing downstairs to replace Isabelle.

Yves paused when he saw Jim's disheveled state. He reached out and pulled open Jim's jacket, examining the wound on his abdomen.

"Bad luck. There were three of them, and I seem to have gotten the strongest one," Jim said with a hint of resignation. Then he asked, "What about Isabelle? Did she get rid of Spadille?" "She's chasing after Spadille. I'm going to replace her," Yves replied.

Jim then noticed Seth, who was also injured, coming down the stairs, as well as Lowe approaching from the other side.

Jim asked, "What about them?"

Yves gave a look and replied, 'Do you need to ask? They're with that guy."

The two returned to the camp to tend to their wounds.

Yves searched for Isabelle with a team of men, but he couldn't replace her. He tried to call her, and to his surprise, she answered quickly.

He learned that Isabelle had already returned and was almost done treating her injuries.

When he heard Isabelle was hurt, Yves rushed over and shoved George aside.

"Huh? Mr. George." Dylan reached out in alarm to steady George.

"Sweetheart, where are you hurt?" Yves asked. He gently took Isabelle's wrist and examined her bandaged

amm

Isabelle replied, "It's just a minor injury." She glanced at George, who had been pushed aside.

Clearly, Isabelle's definition of a minor injury and theirs were not the same. In her terms, a serious injury would be incapacitating.

Yves growled, "A minor injury wrapped up this tight? Where's Spadille? If he's not dead, I'll skin him alive."

Isabelle said calmly, "He's dead."

Yves responded, "Then we'll whip his corpse and feed him to the dogs."

Lowe entered with his men. They brought in the securely tied-up Shadowblade and two other assassins. Jim had successfully eliminated the third assassin. Isabelle looked at Jim and asked, "How's your wound?"

Given that she was a doctor, fim lifted his shirt to reveal his injury. He explained, "Just a scratch, nothing

serious."

Lowe asked, "Mr. Harris, what do we do with these people?"

George looked at Isabelle, seeking her opinion.

Yves said, "Aren't there a few more old ones? Make them talk and settle all accounts at once deny them any preparation when we strike."

Isabelle replied, "We won't get any useful information from them."

These were loyal and skilled Dark Shadow members, particularly Shadowblade.

Extracting information from them would be nearly impossible, and those old ones were elusive; they might not even know their whereabouts.

It was pointless to waste time.

Isabelle declared, "Keeping them is a risk. Kill them."

These people were unwaveringly loyal to Dark Shadow. She had no intention of turning them in. Releasing them would be a disaster.

They might as well end it decisively, since none of them were good people anyway.

Yves protested, "Killing them is too easy. Think about what they did to you."

Upon discovering that Blood Shadow had collaborated with Dark Shadow's research to settle a debt, only for Dark Shadow to betray her, Yves harbored a burning desire to decapitate those Jim coughed, interrupting Yves's words.

Yves stopped talking but muttered, "Any death is too good for them."

George noticed his slip and turned to Isabelle.

V men.

Shadowblade stared straight at Isabelle coldly and asked, "Who are you really? What's your relationship with Blood Shadow?" He seemed to want to see her soul through her unfamiliar face. Dylan was shocked. Blood Shadow? What?

Lowe and Seth were also surprised, looking at Isabelle.

Not only were they stunned, but so were the other Dark Shadow assassins.

Had they misheard? This man was asking about the relationship between this student-looking girl and the legendary assassin.

Dylan was startled. Blood Shadow? Shadowblade? Good grief!

He glanced at the severely injured, tightly bound Shadowblade and came to a realization. Is this guy a Dark Shadow assassin?

Dylan took a sharp breath, thinking of the deceased Mr. Spade as Spadille and the previous Heart Kas Jasiel.

Sa kabelle'y numerous enemies were actually Dark Shadow?

Dylan felt a chill run down his spine, gulping as his legs tensed up.

Yves responded on Isabelle's behalf, stating. "She is not related to Blood Shadow, but she is related to me. Boys! Take them down, cut their tendons, and watch. I want to deal with them slowly." He ordered his men to take the prisoners away.

Seth was severely injured.

Lowe quietly suggested he get his wound treated.

Seth replied, "It's fine. I'll handle it later."

George insisted, "Get your wound treated now."

Seth's eyes brightened, and he stood straighter. "Yes, Mr. George

He immediately went to get treated.

When Yves saw this, he said. "Mr. George, you really are low-key. Who knew you liked to play the underdog?"

George kept his eyes on Isabelle, ignoring Yves. After a few seconds, he finally replied dryly, I envy your carefree and flamboyant style, Yves."

Yves retorted. "You're the one who's carefree, leaving such a big camp to squeeze into a small, shabby building with us."
