Chapter 160 This is Only the Beginning

Even in the late hour, the blare of car horns continued unabated outside.

This remark made George and Dylan ponder Isabelle’s mysterious smile and her use of the word “inconvenience” when she initially moved into the villa.

Was it possible that the inconvenience she mentioned involved getting rid of a body?

The idea sent a chill through Dylan.

“Miss Jenkins, who is that individual?” Dylan asked. It was clear that the person was someone Isabelle considered an enemy.

The awareness that she had an enemy made Dylan realise that her previous interactions with George were genuinely for George’s safety.

Nevertheless, George dismissed him, saying, “Go outside and find two more people to clean up.”

Dylan agreed with a nod.

After Dylan departed, George looked at Isabelle and inquired, “How did you end up angering someone from Dark Shadow?”

Isabelle clarified, saying. “It’s not just someone from Dark Shadow. It’s the entire organisation.”

George was stunned into silence, unsure of how to respond.

Suddenly, Isabelle asked, “Have you been smoking?”

As she opened the door, she smelled smoke on his breath. Although she had known him for quite a while, she had never seen him smoke and assumed he didn’t. It was surprising to learn that he did, albeit infrequently.

She was curious about his sudden habit of smoking late at night and wanted to ask him about it.

Disregarding her question, George sincerely asked, “How can I help you?”

His question made Isabelle look at him instinctively.
