Afterwards, George noticed Isabelle’s changes every day when he woke up. Already fair–skinned, she had. undergone a remarkable transformation in just a few days.
Her snow–white skin was flawless and delicate, and her demeanour had improved by several degrees, making her look eye–catehing.
The change was so noticeable that everyone noticed.
George couldn’t help but think of the box of wine, which included several bottles of red wine known for their beauty benefits. Could it be because of that wine?
Seeing George looking at her, Isabelle said, “Thank you for the needles, Mr. Harris. I’ve been using them for a few nights now. Not only do they detoxify and beautify, but they also help with weight loss.”
It wasn’t the wine sent by a male friend that made the difference, but the needles he sent.
George smiled faintly. “I’m glad you like it, Miss Jenkins.”
The Hurricane Mercenary Corps fell apart like a tree in a hurricane. Its leader’s tendons were cut, leaving him crippled, and only a dozen or so loyal followers remained.
It was said that the Blackwaters were recruiting soldiers and buying horses on a large scale. Even the Hurricane had attracted many people to join them. The Blackwaters were currently staying at the God’s Armament Alliance’s headquarters and enjoying great prestige in Melfrey.
The Hurricane’s leader was furious, his eyes bloodshot, and his heart filled with hatred, which erupted into a low growl from his throat.
“Boss, the doctor says you mustn’t get agitated.”
“Boss, there’s still hope for your hand. I heard of a doctor in Melfrey named Dr. Seely who can work miracles with a scalpel. I believe he can cure your hand.”
Upon hearing this, the Hurricane’s leader calmed down, his eyes fixed firmly on his subordinate. He took a breath and asked, “Are you serious?”
“It’s true.” Several people entered the ward in a mighty procession.
“Who are you?” Hurricane and the others immediately became defensive.
The Hurricane’s leader looked at the newcomer, noticing the Southeast Ardon face of the leader, who appeared small and thin compared to the mercenaries from Melfrey.
Especially this person had a terrifying knife scar on his left eye that split his face in half, and there were large scars on his neck, looking like new scars, as if burned or blasted.
“What your men say is true. Dr. Seely can cure your hand, which is not difficult. What’s difficult is for you to find him,” said Isaac as he entered, facing the hurricane boss lying on the sick bed.
“Can you find him?” The Hurricane’s leader looked at the other side.

Isaac replied, “Of course I can.”
The Hurricane’s leader asked, “Who are you? What is your purpose?”
I’ve come to collaborate with you.”
“Collaborate with a cripple like me?
Isaac pointed with his cigarette at the people in the ward. “You still have a dozen loyal subordinates. I need
them.”
“Why should I trust you?”
“You have no other choice. Dr. Seely isn’t just any doctor. He doesn’t make house calls for money. I have some acquaintance with him, and only I can find him and get him to treat you.”
Instinct told the Hurricane’s leader that this person couldn’t be trusted.
Indeed, he was untrustworthy.
Isaac had never even seen this legendary doctor, didn’t know if they were male or female, and didn’t have any acquaintances or ability to find them. House calls were out of the question.
Nor did he know that this doctor was none other than Blood Shadow, a.k.a. Isabelle, infamous for bombing his village and leaving him in his current state of limbo.
Even worse, she was the Blackwaters boss, who severed the tendons in the Hurricane’s leader’s hand.
The Blackwaters members were busy every day. Jack, the youngest in the group, naturally found ways to slack off amidst the hustle. Everyone indulged him. After helping White Owl select a few new members. who looked good enough, he sneaked off and wandered around God’s Armament Alliance.
As he wandered, Jack unwittingly arrived at the villa where Isabelle lived. Although Jack acknowledged the new boss, his obsession with No Name ran so deep that he couldn’t face Isabelle for a while.
After hesitating for a long time, Jack decided to leave.
At that moment, Dylan came out of the villa.
Upon hearing Dylan say something had happened at the mine, the bored Jack decided to go along.
Out of respect for Isabelle, Dylan took Jack along with him.
Of course, Dylan also had his motives. When they got into the car, he asked Jack about his relationship with Isabelle, “Have you known your boss for a long time?”
Jack answered, “I met her at a hotel a few days before Duel Tournament.”
