Chapter 456
Recte the Genius Within
Chapter 456 It Was Her
George could never have imagined that after a person passed away, another person’s soul could inhabit their body.
It wasn’t acceptable at all.
Yet, only this wild explanation could account for all the inconsistencies surrounding her.
Finished
All of George’s confusion and curiosity about her were resolved in that moment.
Hacker X was Blood Shadow, not Isabelle; the former leader of the Black Water was Blood Shadow, and still is now; Dr. Seely is Blood Shadow…
The beautiful woman Isaac mentioned, and the decryption expert Carl spoke of were all her. Everyone who found Isabelle familiar was actually seeing Blood Shadow.
Jim, Yves, and Blood Shadow, had always been together.
The reason Isabelle was so familiar with Dark Shadow was because she was the most influential and mysterious member of it.
George had always been face–to–face with Blood Shadow, the genius assassin.
It was simply incredible and hard to believe.
“Is it really that hard to accept my identity?”
Isabelle’s words broke the silence.
George snapped out of his thoughts.
He looked at her momentarily before saying, “No, I was just …”
He hesitated to speak as he was still in shock. He felt uneasy rather than in disbelief.
After pondering for a moment, George decided not to voice his confusion immediately. He suppressed his unease and organized his thoughts before asking, “Was there a hidden reason behind your death?”

It was an eerie question.
“I didn’t die because I failed the mission. I blew up that island in Brookhaven and I perished with it,” Isabelle said nonchalantly, but it sent a chill down George’s spine.
He feit sorry when he first learned of her death.
“Dark Shadow is greedy. They wanted to extract all the genes, even after agreeing to only eighty percent. They wanted to kill me after that,” Isabelle added.
“So the time when you completely disappeared, you were in the lab working with them to extract your genes?” George asked.
“Yes.”
George paused momentarily before asking softly, “Have you always been in Dark Shadow since you were a baby?”
Isabelle looked at him puzzledly.
I made it clear in the alley not long ago. Why was he still asking? Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
But then, she saw the concern in his eyes.
“It hurts a lot, right?” George felt heartbroken for her.
He was still treating Isabelle’s new wounds. It was unclear if he was referring to this injury, her days in Dark Shadow, or the torment in the lab.
It was all of it.
The inhumane training, the torture in the lab, every scar on her body, and every bit of suffering she endured was the price that she had paid for being a strong
person.
George felt a pang in his chest. He suppressed his emotions and rested his chin on her forehead, gently nuzzling her.
He was so heartbroken that he was at a loss for words.
The room was silent.
Isabelle’s evelashes fluttered slightly as George’s sorrows enveloped her.

An indescribable feeling.
To be honest, the training in Dark Shadow wasn’t excruciating for her. She enjoyed the process of becoming stronger.
She didn’t even feel a thing in Brookhaven’s laboratory. She channeled all her sufferings into hatred for Dark Shadow.
The environment she grew up in and her experiences made her tough.
Being suddenly cared for by someone made her aggrieved by her past.
She would only feel like this in front of George.
It felt nice to have someone care for her.
George calmed down, took a deep breath, and released her. “Have they used your genes? Does that mean you’ve been cloned too?” He asked worriedly.
“I blew everything up. Maybe.”
She wasn’t entirely sure.
George felt relieved, but he was confused about something. “No matter how perfect a clone is, it still has flaws. Why would they do it?”
Isabelle explained, “Storm Shadow wanted to quit Dark Shadow and was discovered.”
“What about you?”
“Of course, I’ll follow him.”
George asked cautiously after a moment, “Why did he choose to end his life that way?”
He was curious about Storm Shadow’s suicide.
Isabelle lowered her eyes and said, “Dark Shadow discovered his disloyalty and used me to threaten him.”
