Chapter 179 Confrontation Neither of them spoke.

Jasiel continued. "For years, I've devoted myself to Dark Shadow. But in the end, Joker guards againstlike a thief. He would never letleave the organisation, yet he withholds any true authority fromas well. If you both manage to survive and rise to my position in the next ten or twenty years, you'll find yourselves trapped like puppets, just like me." He went on, "I've got the Harris Group under my control now. It won't be too long before I'm running their company.

Both of them looked at Jasiel in surprise.

Jasiel smiled. "If you agree to work for me, the Harris Group won't just be mine; it will be yours as well." "I simply need you to work for me. I'm not asking you to betray Dark Shadow. Young man, I want you to think long-term. Don't limit your talents to a single organization. I can offer you a much broader horizon." Jasiel asked, "How about it?" Just as they were unsure how to respond, the cabin door was suddenly pulled open from the outside, making a loud noise.

Jasiel frowned and looked over in annoyance, expecting to see his adopted son, Josh. The person who entered wasn't Josh; it was someone Jasiel never expected.

"I didn't expect the honourable old Mr. Reeve to be so skilled at brainwashing. Such a waste not joining pyramid scheme." Isabelle set a gasoline canister on the ground and casually shut the door.

You? Jasiel looked at her in astonishment. His gaze swept over the bucket of gasoline she had brought in.

Isabelle scanned the three men at the table and smiled.

All three of them were old acquaintances of hers.

The Taragon branch of Dark Shadow was managed by Mist Shadow and Flying Shadow; the strongest branch was overseen by two assassins from the Shadow team.

Isabelle's smile gave Mist Shadow a strange sense of familiarity. He couldn't help but ask Jasiel. “Who is she? Jasiel didn't answer; his eyes locked on Isabelle.

Ms. Jenkins, what brought you here? Did Mr. Harris...

Isabelle interrupted, "Why brought him up? Are you afraid of him? Didn't you say the Harris Group had fallen under your control?" The texchanged glances at her remarks. Their expressions changed instantly.

None of them had realised someone was cavesdropping outside the door.

Don't worry, Isabelle said. I'm just here to catch up with an old friend." 1/3 Chapter 179 Confrontation Jasiel's eyes turned cold. He asked, "Old friend? How did you find your way here? Is your friend here? Have you found your friend? Of course.

Didn't you bring them along? No problem; I can send someone to fetch them. Jasiel said with a smile, "Since you're here, don't be in a hurry to leave. Stay for a drink." He extended the invitation.

Inwardly, Jasiel cursed Josh for his incompetence.

I wasn't planning on leaving.

Isabelle accepted the invitation, walking over and sitting down confidently.

As she did so, Jasiel watched. His eyes narrowed with a sinister glint as he gripped his cane tightly. He had a fleeting thought of snapping Isabelle's neck.

Isabelle spoke first, "How's the wine? Does it taste good?" The three men tensed, their stomachs suddenly churning with pain and their chests burning.

Mist Shadow and Flying Shadow, who had drunk more, showed the most intense reactions.

Jasiel had only taken a sip and hadn't felt it yet, but seeing the agony on Mist Shadow and Flying Shadow's faces, he realised something was wrong.

Dropping his facade, Jasiel demanded, "What did you put in the wine?" After giving it sthought, Isabelle admitted, "It doesn't have a nyet. However, its origin lies in the poison of the blue hydrangea. How about we call it Purple Hydrangea? Or maybe red hydrangea. Which colour do you like?" Blue Hydrangea? Jasiel was shocked, "How do you know....

Before he could finish, Mist Shadow lunged at Isabelle, aiming for her neck.

He tried to force her to hand over the antidote.

However, Mist Shadow had underestimated Isabelle's combat skills.

With one hand, she grabbed his wrist and slammed his head against the wall with lightning speed. The impact left a dent in the wooden panelling. Her speed was astonishing. Before Mist Shadow could react, she smashed his head against the wall.

Isabelle coldly looked at Mist Shadow, whose nose and mouth were bleeding, and demanded, "Leave Dark Shadow, and I might spare your lives."

Only a few senior members of Dark Shadow were aware of the extraction of her genes. Mist Shadow and Flying Shadow were in the dark, and they didn't participate in the scheme. Out of respect for their shared past, she was willing to offer them a chance to live. At that moment, the Flying Shadow attacked her.

Isabelle repelled him with one hand. When he launched his second attack, she swiftly drew aldagger from her waist and severed his tendons with a single slash. Send Gifts
