Chapter 201: After reading Aelfric's message, Marissa logged off the Darkwith a sneer. Aelfric was clearly intimidated by the mention of Black Mallow. It seemed he hadn't becso bold as to disregard everything. For now, she couldn't concern herself with his reckless actions behind her and King's backs Her immediate priority was to get to the Sunrise. Connor's interruption had her worried she might miss Amiri entirely. Frustration surged within her, and she felt an urge to kick Connor hard in the leg In fury, she stepped out of the car. At that moment, Connor also exited his vehicle. When she turned to face him, their eyes locked. Marissa's gaze was fiercely angry, while his shifted nervously, blinking like a child caught in a misdeed After a tense pause, Marissa approached him, her smile sharp and mocking. As she neared, Connor offered a shaky, almost scared smile. “So... So you are Bee!" he stammered His nerves were palpable. He already knew she was Riss, the internationally renowned doctor, and Black Snake, the mercenary queen. Learning she was also "Bee" seemed to overwhelm him. He looked utterly baffled, as if unable to fathom what more the village girl could be hiding New chapters now on g@lObserving his panic, Marissa felt a mix of amusement and irritation. It was almost comical how this usually arrogant man was now cowering before her, making her feel like she was intimidating a child. She had mustered enough energy to kick him when they first met, but now she simply couldn't bring herself to do it. To be honest, she was not just angry. She was also stunned. She had seriously underestimated him before. She had seen him as just another affluent, handsome, and successful businessman, so discovering his skills as a hacker and his sharp intelligence caught her off guard After a brief pause, she asked with a hint of sarcasm, "Didn't you say you would ripto shreds once you caught me, Him? Well, here I am. Where do you want to start?" Connor, visibly embarrassed, touched his nose and responded, "I'm sorry for what I said to you before." Unable to hold back any longer, Marissa lightly kicked his shin-much gentler than she had planned. Though it wasn't supposed to hurt much, Connor still grimaced tically before asking with a grin, "Feel better now?" Marissa gave him a disapproving look and, pointing to her phone, said, "Look at the time. How much longer are you planning to keephere? Are we heading to the Sunrise or not?" Connor quickly apologized, "I'm truly sorry. It's entirely my fault! The private jet has been ready for a while. Let's say goodbye to Grandma, and we can head out." As he spoke, he grabbed her hand and led her towards the main building. Marissa let herself be pulled along, muttering, "I would have stayed out of your business with Aelfric if I knew you were going to be such a nuisance." Connor halted abruptly and swung around to face her. "You went after the Warren Group just to keep Aelfric busy so that he wouldn't hurt me?" Marissa's expression turned grave. "Did you know he planned to harm you on the Sunrise?" "Yes, I was aware." "How did you cto know about it?" "Since childhood, he's always tried to sabotage me. Whenever I faced danger, he was there, interfering." "It seems you've clashed with him quite a bit. Why not finish him off for good? Then you wouldn't have to worry about him anymore." "Because he's the deputy chief instructor at Doomsday Base." "You're afraid of the Doomsday Base?"
"Afraid" isn't the right word. It's just that my master has strictly has strictly forbiddenfrom crossing Zyair Ortiz, also E known as 'King,' from Doomsday."
"Your master? Who is it?" The m content is on Enzko.com! Read is on the latest chapter there! "He's a hermit."
At that, Marissa fell silent. The term "hermit" indicated he wouldn't reveal more about his master. After a m moment of reflection, Marissa spoke again. "Connor, there's something crucial I need to discuss, but I'm hesitant to bring it up."
