Next One Is a Babe Chapter 904

He looked at her from the corner of his eyes and lowered his voice as he said, “Nothing at the moment.
Did you find out about something?”

Isabelle could not come up with a reply because it was not true that she had found any clues.
Previously, she had only overheard some conversation between her grandpa and her dad, and she did
not hold any substantive evidence aside from that. So, she only shook her head at John’s question. He
gave it some thought before asking, “Does your family have a side business?”

She blinked at him. “I don’t know about that.” What she said was true. However, in her vague
recollection of the conversation between her grandpa and her dad, they seemed to be talking about
another business other than their current company.

That day, Elder Mr. Bailey did not make things very clear and Isabelle could only retrieve fragments of
things from the conversation, which was unhelpful to piece the puzzle. Therefore, she was put on the
spot when John asked her about it.

He looked around them and lowered his voice further. “Since you gave me a reminder, I will return your
favor by being upfront with you. Your family seems to be running a shadow bank that dishes out
microloans. It feels suspicious.”

She immediately furrowed her brows. “Suspicious?”

John could not tell her more than that. Due to his status as a business partner, he could only release
limited information to alert Isabelle.

On the other side, Old Mr. Bailey was still crying uncontrollably with his face covered. Isabelle had no



choice but to hurry over and comfort him.

There were a lot of deceased who underwent cremation at the same time. When the Baileys stood
there and witnessed the other families crying their hearts out, they finally had a taste of the
mundaneness of death. Every day, there were many people who crossed the bridge to the afterlife, and
with that, their families suffered with grief.

Half an hour later, Dexter’s ashes were sent out from the crematorium. What was left of him was
nothing more than bone fragments. The Baileys had purchased an urn, which they placed his ashes in
and wrapped it up nicely.

As Dexter’s parents were heartbroken, they were in no condition to proceed to the funeral home.
Therefore, the task of sending Dexter’s ashes to the funeral home fell onto Isabelle’s shoulders. John
volunteered to drive her there. “I’ll drive you there. You don’t look like you can drive.”

She nodded gratefully at his offer. “Thank you.”

The group left the hospital and Isabelle went into John’s car. They soon drove out of the area. During
the trip, Isabelle continued asking John about the topic. “You mentioned that our family has been
running a shadow bank. Where is it located?”

Instead of answering her, he asked another question. “Do you really not know about what your dad or
your grandpa did in secret?”

She gave it some careful consideration and answered, “I have a gut feeling, but I have no way to prove
my guess.” It was surprising enough that Isabelle willingly shared her inner thoughts with John, so he



said, “Okay. I trust that you really don’t have an idea.”

She hugged Dexter’s urn and gently said, “Ever since Dexter left us, I have been carefully examining
our family. I feel that our way of life, or perhaps the dynamics of our communication, is extremely toxic.”

Then, she sighed and lowered her voice. “Sometimes, I really feel that it’s not easy for me to survive
until today. Perhaps I should feel thankful that I was born a girl. If I were a boy, I probably would have
ended up with a fate like Dexter’s.”

It was true that Old Mr. Bailey had been putting restrictions on Dexter and forcing things on him. Since
young, Dexter did not have much personal time for himself. His hobbies and everything he did in his life
were laid out based on his dad’s plan.

In the past, Elder Mr. Bailey also actively participated in interfering with Dexter’s life. Step by step, the
two men of the Bailey Family tried to mould Dexter based on their preferences. The thought made
Isabelle tear up once more. “My poor Dexter. If only I had noticed the signs earlier, he would not have
ended up dead.”
