Resurrecting the Genius Within
Chapter 263 Simp

As long as the individuals with ‘Shadow‘ in their codenames or the other three elderly individuals didn’t get directly involved, and as long as they didn’t send more than three assassins at once, White Owl and Jack could manage the situation together.
Isabelle expressed, “Ethan is important, but you and the Blackwaters mean just as much to me. I never expected you and White Owl to put your lives at risk for the, so if things get too tough, just make a run for it.”
Jack was taken aback by Isabelle’s words. Most other mercenary leaders treated their subordinates like tools, keeping them at a distance. After No Name, Isabelle was the second leader to see her subordinates as people, even friends.
Feeling touched, Jack questioned, “Are you really like a sister to me?”
Isabelle responded, “Close enough.”
She had known Jack and White Owl much longer than she did Ethan. Their bond with Blood Shadow was as strong as Ethan’s bond with Isabelle.
Isabelle added, “Only idiots would play a losing game.”
Why should they sacrifice themselves when they know they can’t win?
When George returned home from work and had been in his study for a while, Dylan knocked on the door.
Dylan informed, “Mr. George, Chairman of the Redding Group, Frank Redding, is here to see you. He’s offended Miss Jenkins and has come to plead for mercy.”
George’s initial thought was, Why is Frank seeking mercy from me?
Considering Isabelle’s direct approach, Frank should have been severely injured or dead. Why is he left for me to handle?
Since this was the first time something like this had happened, George was puzzled by the situation. Is Isabelle starting to appreciate my assistance?
However, what Dylan said quickly dispelled his thoughts. I’ve already gathered information. On New Year’s Eve, Frank schemed against Jack at the hotel. Even after he was hospitalised by Jack, he persisted. Today, he sent people to the school again. Mr. Danny happened to be there and gave them a thrashing before sending them to you.”
Dylan shook his head inwardly. This old man. I don’t know what to say about this laste for being fixated on Jack
The mercenaries from Melfrey refrained from killing him outright out of respect for the city’s civility.
Happiness turned to disappointment. So, it was Danny.
But considering this, it seems that he no longer harbours any feelings for Isabelle.
Dylan inquired, “Sir, how should we proceed?”

George responded, “I think you should know what to do. Kick him out of Taragon City and spread the word that no company is to cooperate with him. Those with investments should withdraw them promptly. If they hesitate, kick them out as well.”
He paused, then continued, “Since he’s still active, it means he hasn’t been injured severely enough. Ensure he’s properly taken care of.”
Dylan acknowledged the order. “Understood.”
At the beginning of the new semester, Danny took charge of boosting the atmosphere by arranging a friendly basketball match with the neighbouring school.
Though it was meant to be friendly, both sides prepared as if they were vying for Olympic gold medals. Students from both schools were already engaging in debates on the school forum, and the neighbouring school even organised a cheerleading squad.
Initially planned for May, the match was moved up.
With the time changing, Danny and his teammates had been scrambling to practice these past two days, but with little success.
Danny dribbled the basketball, feeling frustrated as he walked.
“Danny.”
Danny glanced up to see Bella. However, he was not in the mood to deal with her, so he walked past her without uttering a word.
Bella caught up and said, “Here you go.”
Danny glanced briefly at the bank card she handed him. “Stop blocking me for no reason. Just move aside.”
Bella responded, “I’m paying you back for the car.
Danny fired back. “You really want to talk about that? If it weren’t for you, my fireworks wouldn’t have gone off. You’re such a lousy driver. Why don’t you consider donating your eyes if you’re not using them?”
Feeling annoyed, Danny walked past her again.
“You bought those bad fireworks yourself, and besides, fireworks are banned in the city,” Bella said, trying to hold back laughter at the thought of Danny getting caught in the blast.
“I bought bad fireworks? Are you saying I can’t afford good ones? Nothing I buy is ever bad!”
