Chapter CHAPTER 49
Chapter 49 Encounter Former Subordinate White Owl
Yves: ‘Darling, I’m back now. Can we meet?”
Perhaps because Isabelle had previously mentioned that the meeting was inconvenient, Yves had refrained from contacting her until today.
Isabelle typed with one hand and leisurely replied, ‘Unfortunately, I’m leaving for Melfrey tomorrow!
Yves: The Annual Duel Tournament? Are you sure you can attend it now? Do I need to remind you, Darling? You bombed the headquarters of the God’s Armament Alliance!
Isabelle: Why should I be afraid?”
Yves: Do you want to wait for me? Then we can go together or see you on the Melfrey?”
Isabelle: ‘Are you coming?”
After agreeing to meet in Melfrey, Isabelle set off with a black backpack the next day.
As soon as Isabelle left. Eleanor came to knock on her door with breakfast. She called Isabelle with a smile on her face.
After knocking for a long time without any response, Eleanor could only gently remind her to have breakfast when she woke up.
She appeared like a loving mother, making Layla grind her teeth and cover her ears in the other room.
Just as Eleanor was about to leave for work, several of Jenkins‘ brothers arrived with their wives and children, carrying gifts.
The younger brothers and sisters–in–law affectionately called their elder brother and sister–in–law.
The youngest brother, Sean, was generous and spent a lot of money on gifts.
With the beautiful dress and red envelope Sean gave, Layla looked at the large red envelope prepared by Sean for Isabelle. She felt uneasy and couldn’t be happy at all.
William was a sentimental man. Upon hearing his brothers‘ heartfelt apologies, he softened and said that the incident from last night was over and they were still a family.
Seeing that his elder brother was no longer angry, Sean was overjoyed and asked, “Is Isabelle at home?*
Eleanor was not as easy to handle as William. She immediately put on an air and said, “My precious. daughter is still sleeping in her room.
“Well, then I’ll wait for her. I will apologize to her when she wakes up,” said Sean.
So the Jenkins brothers just waited.
However, no one got up until noon,
So the next day, a group of people came again.

When William asked, he found out that there was a problem with Sean’s stone factory. The man named Mr. Leif in the hotel had cancelled all orders with him, and afterwards, there were gradually more cancellations from other clients as well.
All of a sudden, his business was ruined entirely.
Even the suppliers wanted to stop cooperating with him.
Without thinking, it was all because of Isabelle.
However, they still couldn’t see Isabelle this time.
“Isabelle has gone out. You don’t need to come anymore. Isabelle won’t deal with you and won’t accept these things from you. Ethan returned from school and told them, then returned to his room.
Upon hearing this, the Jenkins brothers felt like the sky had fallen.
To put it bluntly, Kimberly’s family works for the Sean’s family, and Charlie’s family also relies on the Sean’s family to earn money.
If Sean fell, they were all affected.
At this time, Isabelle had already arrived in Melfrey smoothly.
After leaving the airport, she took a taxi to the booked hotel.
At night, a few gunshots broke the silence. Isabelle walked to the window, propped her hands on the sill, and looked down at the bustling street below.
Screams, cries for help, and languages from various countries were mixed together.
Something seemed to be stirring in Isabelle’s cold eyes, and it slowly came to life. In this bloody atmosphere, she regained the long–lost feeling in her heart, and she felt a sense of comfort.
The area was not quiet all night.
This was the northwest of Melfrey, not Isabelle’s final destination. The place she was going to was even more turbulent and chaotic.
Isabelle was not in a hurry and stayed in the hotel for two days.
She left the hotel on the third day.
Upon hearing where Isabelle was going, the thick–lipped black driver refused to go. He charged Isabella double the money before reluctantly agreeing to take her to the hotel she wanted.
Before leaving, he kindly advised Isabelle to leave early.
Isabelle slung her bag over her shoulder and replied, “Thanks.” She was in a good mood.
When checking in at the front desk, she ran into several tall men of different skin colours also checking in.
The leader was a Cheshian man with vellow skin and
black eves
Chapter 49 Encounter Former Subordinate White Ow!
They were dressed in mercenary combat uniforms, with guns at their waists, and they had wounds on their bodies. The smell of blood was obvious as if they had just been through a fierce battle.
“D“mn it! Now, even those unorganized trash dare to bully us!” A blond, blue–eyed mercenary licked the blood from the corner of his mouth and spat on the ground.
Another black mercenary snorted coldly, speaking in his native language, “Our boss is dead, and now we’re just a group of lone soldiers without a leader.
The leading Cheshian mercenary turned around, grabbed the black man’s collar and warned him fiercely, “Badman, shut up!”
The black man was so angry. He grabbed the opponent’s collar without thinking and said emotionally, “Did I say something wrong? Isn’t our boss dead? If she’s not dead, then bring her out! White Owl, I’ve had enough of you. Since our boss is dead, let’s fight it out and go our separate ways. Come on!”
“Enough! Haven’t we been bullied enough? Do we need to fight amongst ourselves?” Other mercenaries. stepped in to break up the fight.
White Owl gritted his teeth and let go of Badman.
Badman stumbled back several steps.
At this time, White Owl spoke in a deep voice, “I will win first place in the Duel Tournament in ten days. Those who are willing to follow me can do so. Those who are unwilling can join other organizations or submit to God’s Armament. It’s up to you.”
As soon as White Owl said this, everyone else looked at him in disbelief.
Participating in the Duel Tournament and winning first place would earn everyone’s recognition and qualify him as their new boss.
White Owl indirectly admitted that their boss was dead.
“Do you think you can be the boss? I, Badman, will be the first to oppose you! I would rather be a lone soldier!” After saying these, Badman stormed out of the hotel, ignoring the shouts of his companions.
White Owl clenched his teeth, restraining himself from speaking.
Isabelle observed the scene and thought to herself. She hadn’t anticipated that her demise would bring even more misery to her subordinates‘ lives than she had imagined.
While White Owl was still checking in, he seemed to notice something. He turned his head to glance at the girl beside him, witnessing their argument.
Indeed, the girl was looking at him!
White Owl thought to himself. She’s pretty audacious.
To White Owl’s surprise, when the girl noticed him looking at her, she didn’t hide but even smiled at him.
White Owl was stunned.
When he came to his senses, the girl was already walking towards the elevator.

White Owl observed her figure, the image of the girl’s enigmatic smile lingering in his mind. It gave White Owl an indescribable sense of familiarity.
Late at night. Isabelle stood by the window, gazing at the majestic buildings in the distance resembling palaces.
Those were the headquarters of the God’s Armament Alliance that White Owl had mentioned earlier.
This marked the border of the Melfrey, a lawless region where organized and unorganized mercenaries, bounty hunters, fugitives, and wanted criminals from various countries could be found everywhere.
The criminals are just ordinary people here.
It served as a gathering place for villains, both a heaven and a hell for them.
However, even here, there were regulations.
The God’s Armament Alliance was the largest, most well–equipped, and most formidable mercenary organization in this area, possessing the highest authority.
The mastermind behind the God’s Armament Alliance was the ruler of Melfrey.
