After Rebirth She Strikes Back (Simone) novel Chapter 86

Chapter 86

Every day on the island was mind–numbingly dull and filled with suffering. Simone’s arrival brought a rare spark of life to their otherwise bleak

days

With Simone’s incredible gift for medicine, Justin, Melissa, and Holden all took her on as their apprentice at the same time.

They taught Simone everything they knew, holding nothing back. Simone didn’t let them down. She quickly surpassed her teachers, outshining

But a year later, Simone had her first falling out with Justin and Holden. The reason was that Justin and Holden, desperate to survive, agreed to help kts develop drugs.

When Simone found out, she rushed over and confronted them. She asked, “Why did you agree to this? You’re doctors. How could you just throw away your principles?”

Justin shot back, “What do you know! If we didn’t agree, they’d kill us.” He didn’t think he was wrong. He believed that as long as he went along with them, maybe one day they’d let him go.

“We were forced,” Holden echoed, sharing the same mindset.

Simone e just laughed bitterly. She said. “You think doing what they want will save you? Everyone here is a monster. No one who comes here ever leaves alive

But Justin and Holden stuck to their guns, refusing to change their minds.

After that, Idris set up a special lab for Justin and Holden to work in, and sure enough, they managed to create a new kind of drug.

Meanwhile, Simone, Melissa, and Waher refused to give in, even if it meant dying. As punishment, Idris locked them up with vicious dogs for three days and nights. By the time they were let out, the three of them were barely clinging to life.

From that day on. Justin and Holden abandoned the last bit of their conscience and slid further and further down the wrong path

When Simone was fourteen, another batch of medical staff was brought in. At the same time, a client’s order was still short ten hearts.

To fill the quota. Idris locked the five of them: Simone, Justin, Holden, Melissa, and Walter, together with all the new arrivals in a single room.

Idris forced them into a brutal death match. The rules were simple anyone who didn’t make it out alive would have their heart cut out to fill the order

The island master handed everyone a dagger. As soon as the door slammed shut, the room erupted into chaos. People lunged at each other like wild animals, blades flashing, blood splattering everywhere. The tiny room was soon drenched in a shocking vivid red.

Throughout the carnage, Melissa and Walter kept Simone shielded behind them. When the slaughter finally ended and only the five of them were left standing, an eerie silence settled over the room.

Nine people were dead. Just one more, and they could finally leave.

Suddenly, Justin turned and fixed his sharp gaze on Simone, who was still behind Melissa. His eyes were cold as he said. “Melissa, let me kill Simone. She’s the weakest. If we get rid of her, we can all walk out of here?

The moment Justin looked at her, Simone knew exactly what he was thinking. A chill ran down her spine, and her heart sank. She instinctively took a few steps back, pulling out her dagger, ready to defend herself.

Melissa stepped in front of Simone, arms spread wide, glaring furiously at Justin. She said, “Justin, she’s our apprentice. How can you even think about killing your student? Are you even human” After three years together, Melissa had long since treated Simone as her family.

A flicker of hesitation flashed in Justin’s eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a savage determination. He said, “It’s not like I want to, but unless one of us dies, that door’s not opening

“She’s the weakest. If you want to blame someone, blame her for not being strong enough”

Melissa turned to Walter and asked, “Do you think so too?”

Walter didn’t say a word, but he drew his dagger

Melissa saw exactly what they were planning. Her eyes turned steely. She said, Tim not letting anyone lay a finger on Simone. As long as Frn alive, no one’s getting past me.”
