Resurrecting the Genius Within
Chapter 243 Sweet or Sour
George’s smile broadened, and he said. “It’s sour.”
Isabelle said. “I’ve found someone from Dark Shadow,”
George asked. “And then?”
Isabelle replied, “I had dealt with him.”
George pressed, “To lure out Spadille?”
“Yes,” Isabelle confirmed.
George pondered. Just killing one of his key assistants might not be enough. I wonder if Spadille has heard about your killing of Jasiel and if he’s keeping a watch on you.”
Isabelle suggested. I’ll buy some explosives from Lowe and bomb his place for a couple of days. That should draw him away. If he’s already watching, that’s even more advantageous. Saves me the trouble of finding them.”
“First Jasiel; now Spadille. The Dark Shadow will definitely target you,” George said, looking at her. “Do you intend to kill everyone in Dark Shadow?”
Isabelle replied, Just a few old ones. The others aren’t worth my effort.”
George asked, “How many of your targets are left?”
“Four,” Isabelle answered.
George fell silent for a while.
He suddenly asked, “Any more?”
Isabelle looked puzzled and asked, “Hmm?”
George extended his hand and said, “Grapes.”
Isabelle raised an eyebrow as she looked at his palm. She mocked, “Mr. Harris, a mature man like you is asking a young girl for food.”
She gave him two grapes.
George took the grapes and couldn’t help but smile.
“It seems Yves likes you a lot,” George suddenly said.
Isabelle asked, “What kind of ‘like‘ are you referring to, Mr. Harris?”
“Naturally, in a romantic way,” George said.
Isabelle chuckled.
“Isn’t it true?” George asked.

Isabelle was about to respond when Yves and Jim approached. “Sweetheart!”
Yves quickly ran over and led Isabelle away.
The next day, the group went to the camp to find Lowe.
Seth, who had been unwelcoming to them a few days ago, had no objections this time. He stood beside Lowe, silent but upright.
Isabelle bought time–dated bombs from Lowe.
Yves suggested, “Sweetheart, why not buy a few cannons and level the place? It would be easier. Besides, I’m itching for some action.”
Seth occasionally stole glances at George, while Dylan kept signaling to Seth to tone it down.
Seth ignored Dylan completely and kept watching after they had left.
Isabelle lowered her voice and said to George in a casual tone, “That guy named Seth seems quite interested in you. Mr. Harris.”
George smiled and said, “I’m not into men, so I’ll have to disappoint him.”
Lowe observed Isabelle walking alongside George and understood something. He muttered, “Looks like we’ll be seeing a lot of this girl in the future.”
Seth asked, “What do you mean?”
Lowe chuckled and explained. “What do I mean? Have you seen that young lady? Don’t you think she will be our future Mrs. Harris?”
“She’s too young,” Seth protested.
Lowe retorted, “What do you know, you blockhead? It’s a good thing we didn’t offend her earlier, or we might have to retire early.
All of Yves’s men were from the 791 Corps. They were quite skilled, and blowing up enemy territories was naturally their job.
Over the next few days, Alcott resembled a war–torn country.
The already lively season became even more chaotic.
Unprecedented commotion ensued.
First, the Warners‘ territory suffered, then the drug lord’s domain suffered.
They bombed the plantations first, then the processing factory, and finally the transport vehicles.
One night, unable to sleep and itching for action, Isabelle personally went out and bombed their buildings.
After a couple of trips, she had almost leveled the building.
One night, after setting off some bombs, Isabelle encountered George waiting for her. He asked, “Any luck?
