Chapter 403 Is She Okay? 

Jim asked, “Did you let him go?” 

George looked at Jim, realising that Jim knew far more than he did. He glanced at Isabelle before instructing Dylan. “Send someone to find Joshua immediately.”

Isabelle clenched her teeth. She stared into the empty distance and finally said, “There is no need to search for him. If he’s dead, he deserves it!” 

Dylan was about to call for reinforcements when he silently put his phone down. He was completely bewildered by the situation. 

Why did she suddenly become so ruthless towards that man? 

In the villa, Jim sat on the couch, bent over to pick up the custom handcuffs on the floor, and sighed. 

The sound of the sigh made George, who was standing by the stairs, turn to look at him. 

George lowered his gaze slightly, then looked back at the stairs. 

Dylan silently cleaned up the shattered chair pieces on the floor, noticing drops of black blood. His mind raced with various scenarios. 

Jim tossed the handcuffs onto the table and said, “Don’t worry so much. Have a seat.” 

George looked at him again. After a brief silence, he asked, “She won’t be alright, will she?” 

If it had been Yves sitting there, George wouldn’t have asked. 

Jim had stated he had no romantic feelings for Isabelle, but that was not the case with Yves. Naturally, George wouldn’t ask a rival about Isabelle. 

Compared to Yves, Jim seemed like a better person. 

Jim acknowledged, “Of course not. She’s probably attacking the security system of the Dark Shadow headquarters right now, massively destroying their firewalls.” 

George was bewildered. 

Is she getting revenge or venting her rage

Jim took off his glasses, holding them in his hand. His long arms stretched out and draped over the couch’s back. He looked quite different from his usual lawyerly image in front of George. 

“She enjoys doing this when she’s in a bad mood. She targets anyone who messes with her. This is just the start, so get ready.” 

Jim’s words reassured George. 

He sat down and asked, “How much do you know about Joshua? Can you tell me?” 

Jim put his glasses back on and said, smiling slightly, “It’s better if she tells you herself.”

George couldn’t help but ask, “Ready for what?” 

Get him ready to take on Dark Shadow together? He thought it was serious.

Jim typed a message without looking up, saying, “It’s the weekend. That guy is definitely sleeping in. I need to wake him up for breakfast and get ready for the day.” Jim was just having some fun with George. 

It was amusing to tease the powerful Mr. George. Actually. Jim was worried about Isabelle, too. 

He knew that Storm Shadow meant something different to her. 

If Storm Shadow hadn’t died, George might not have had a chance. 

George had no words. 

The more he looked, the more he thought Jim and Yves were alike. 

The night passed, and dawn broke. 

George paced outside Isabelle’s door. 

After a while, he gently turned the door handle. He didn’t knock, afraid to wake her if she was sleeping. 

He entered the room and saw Isabelle’s laptop still open on the table. 

It seemed she had been busy all night, just as Jim had said. 

He looked towards the bedroom, quietly walking over. A small figure was under the covers on the bed, with a few strands of hair peeking out onto the sheets. 

It seemed like she had calmed down after venting. 

George had been worried about her all night, but he finally felt at ease. Just as he was about to leave, the girl under the covers suddenly threw the blanket off her head. 

The room was dim, with the curtains drawn tight. Her hair covered her face and eyes, making it hard to see her expression, but George could feel her looking at him. 

Did he wake her? 

George hesitated for a moment, then moved closer to check on her. 

The girl lying on the bed shifted, moving to the middle, leaving a large space open. 

She was awake, or perhaps had never slept. 

George saw her seemingly making room for him. He uncertainly walked to the bed, then sat down. 

Just as George wondered if he had misunderstood, she lifted herself slightly, rested her head on his lap, and nestled into his embrace, placing one hand on his leg. 

George’s abdomen tightened immediately. His body was tense and frozen in place. It wasn’t because he was inexperienced or overly excited; they had been intimate before. 

But the place she was lying didn’t she realise?

George tried to control his thoughts, adjusting his breathing. He glanced down but quickly averted his eyes, not daring to look. 

He awkwardly raised his hand to pat her head but stopped midway. His hand hovered in the air and dared not be put down. Meanwhile, his abdomen was tightening further. 

Changing direction, he pulled the blanket that had slipped down to her waist back up, covering her shoulders.
