Chapter 233 New Arrivals in Alcott

Lowe observed the girl Jim was referring to.

She seemed injured. She also had visible red marks on her wrists and ankles, and her expression was tense and fearful, much like a frightened rabbit.

Apparently, she had been rescued from the Warners auction house.

Lost?

Wound up all the way in Alcott? That seems highly unlikely,

Seth, who had long despised the Warners‘ shady dealings, would normally have been quick to offer help. However, he knew that helping Isabelle and her group under the current circumstances was impractical. He whispered to Lowe, “The Warners are actively searching for them; it’s best we stay out of this.”

After a brief pause, Lowe nodded in agreement. “Agreed.”

Seth’s expression showed his concern.

Jim then requested, “Given the trauma this young girl has endured, could we perhaps arrange for some of your people to accompany her?” He looked towards Yves, suggesting sending two men to escort her.

Seth snapped back, frustrated, “If you don’t trust us, why come to us for help? The door is that way. Bye!”

Lowe echoed simply, “Fine.”

Visibly irritated, Seth glanced at Lowe, surprised by his quick concurrence.

Meanwhile, Jim and Isabelle exchanged looks, questioning whether this arms dealer was genuinely kind or merely pretending.

Jim then turned to Lowe, seeking to shift the conversation, “Additionally, I’d like to discuss some business with you concerning purchasing some weapons.”

Lowe replied promptly, “Okay.”
