Chapter 423 Not the First When Isabelle saw the one who threw the darts, she froze.

Finished The man had a lean build, sharp features, and a cold expression that never seemed to smile. He always. wore black looking remarkably like Jacques, but he wasn't him Isabelle could hardly believe it. She muttered, "Storm Shadow!" This was a face she could never mistake.

Moon Shadow was equally shocked when she saw Storm Shadow. He had been sure that Storm Shadow was dead. How could this be? He glanced at Clubs.

Finally, Moon Shadow believed Isabelle's earlier words that Blood Shadow hadn't died from a mission failure, but due to the cloning experiments in the Brookhaven lab.

Apparently, Storm Shadow met the sfate.

Clubs observed Isabelle's reaction. He felt a slight easing of the anger in his heart. He was filled with a twisted sense of satisfaction.

"Hmm, so you know him. I'm no longer curious about your connection to Blood Shadow, but now I'm interested again." He was curious to see that she recognised Storm Shadow and had such a strong reaction.

"Give it a few more years, and we'll leave Dark Shadow and live a normal life in the city you love." Isabelle stood there. She looked at the man who had been by her side since she could remember, and who had walked with her for nearly twenty years.

Storm Shadow's words echoed in her mind, and everything felt like it was just yesterday.

She fell into a trance.

Isabelle had simply smiled and not responded back then.

After Storm Shadow's death, she regretted countless times not voicing her agreement.

At least, she shouldn't leave him with so many regrets.

Before Storm Shadow died, Isabelle had never thought there was anything wrong with Dark Shadow. She had belonged to the organization since she could remember.

She loved learning various skills, and the organization provided her with learning opportunities. She didn't resent the survival of the fittest philosophy.

Back then, she didn't see anything wrong with being an assassin, especially with Storm Shadow by her side.

Even when Dark Shadow's relentless surveillance began to irritate her.

Because Storm Shadow was there, she never thought about leaving.

1/3 Chapter 423 Not the First Therefore, when he suggested leaving the organization, she agreed without hesitation.

25% N Finished Isabelle quickly calmed down, her rationality returning. She looked at the familiar face, her palms pierced by her own nails.

This man wasn't Storm Shadow; she had buried him herself.

"You... cloned him ... “Isabelle spoke, disbelief etched on her face.

She had thought she was the first experiment subject.

Now, with Storm Shadow's clone standing before her, everything changed.

When Moon Shadow asked her if Storm Shadow had died the sway while she was in the cage, she was momentarily confused.

She always thought she was the first test subject and never thought the long-dead Storm Shadow would have cbefore her.

When Moon Shadow asked, a momentary sense of dread gripped her. She didn't dare to think about it.

As a guinea pig, Isabelle knew all too well how painful and torturous the process was. She never wanted to recall her days in the underground lab in Brookhaven.

Despite the relatively mature technology at the tof her gene extraction, she still suffered greatly.

She couldn't bear to think about the agony Storm Shadow must have endured with less advanced technology.

Until now.

Isabelle murmured, "When did this happen?"

Clubs smiled and said, "Naturally, it was before Blood Shadow. That underground lab in Brookhaven saw Storm Shadow first. Getting comply was muching him to much easier than Blood shadow. Everyone in Dark Shadow knew that Blood Shadow was his weakness. He couldn't take her away.

Even if he had the chance, he wouldn't have dared. They would have lived their lives under Dark Shadow's pursuit, never getting a moment's rest." Isabelle remembered. Storm Shadow often went on missions for months at a time. How had she not noticed anything was wrong? She recalled that in the year before she agreed to go to the Brookhaven lab, she had spent the least amount of twith Storm Shadow.

In the first half of that year, she hadn't seen him for four months.

When she saw him again, he had lost a lot of weight. She had been curious about what mission could have taken such a toll on him.

He hadn't said much, but those two days after he returned, he had been particularly clingy, following her everywhere. The way he looked at her... It was different from any other time.

2/3 Chapter 423 Not the First She couldn't remember it all. Her chest tightened, and she struggled to breathe.

Finished

It had been summer, and he had worn long sleeves. She hadn't found it strange at the time, but now she realises he has been hiding the needle marks on his body. X
